The Ritz-Carlton, Naples reopens on July 6, 2023, following an extensive renovation and expansion begun in 2021. The legendary luxury resort on Florida’s Gulf Coast will debut the Vanderbilt Tower, which features an expansive new Ritz-Carlton Club Lounge and more than 70 club-level guestrooms, along with a new resort lobby, and three new dining experiences. The reconfigured resort presents re-imagined outdoor spaces, including new pools, bungalows, and cabanas along with extensive redesigns to all the resort’s 474 guest rooms and suites.
A highlight of the renovation is the addition of the Vanderbilt Tower, the resort’s Club Level tower featuring upgraded appointments and direct views of the Gulf of Mexico. The crown jewel of the new tower is the new Ritz-Carlton Club Lounge, featuring a dedicated full-service bar, media room, exclusive programming, and five daily culinary presentations.
The newly designed arrival experience of The Ritz-Carlton, Naples features and ornate lobby bar inspired by decades of celebrations. Complete with a Signature Champagne Tasting Experience designed by Master Sommelier Elyse Lambert, the bar features a menu of more than fifty curated champagnes and sparkling wines.
The resort will have three new dining experiences available to guests, including Sofra, a new vegetable-forward restaurant inspired by the shareable, flavorful plates of the Eastern Mediterranean. Moka will also debut offering a wide variety of coffees made from hand-picked beans selected in partnership with a third-generation roasting family. A third restaurant concept will be announced later this year.
Guests will see a revamped poolside experience, which includes a resort pool for families, an adult pool, lap pool, and hot tub. Ten fully-enclosed, air-conditioned bungalows with cascading doors provide poolside comfort and luxury, each with its own private bath, television, and entertainment system, and service bar for refreshments. Additionally, 10 cabanas will be added to the pool area, each with plush seating, ceiling fans, and televisions, serving as a luxurious home base for outdoor relaxation.
The addition of more than 60 suites allows the luxury resort to offer more than 90 multi-room suites to groups and leisure travelers, including Royal Suites with three bedrooms and bathrooms families and extended stays.
