Vanderbilt Beach Resort is a two-story hotel right on the beach, described as a gem and an oasis. It offers a beautiful, excellent, and private beach with provided chairs and towels. The property features a small outdoor pool near the beach, noted as very warm, and a beautiful garden. Rooms are clean, cozy, and very comfortable, located steps from the ocean. They are well-equipped with a kitchen, refrigerator, microwave, sink, complete utensils, TV, and two beds, though some aspects are a little dated. The staff is highlighted as the best, very friendly, attentive, and making guests feel comfortable. Parking across the street is available at no additional cost. The on-site restaurant was not yet open at the time of some visits, but there are restaurants within walking distance, including one right across the street, though some nearby options are noted as very expensive. More dining and nearby activities like fishing and tennis are a short drive away. The area is considered a quiet and secure zone.
We have been staying at VBR for the last 15 years. There is no other place I’d rather stay. The staff treats you like family. Can’t wait to return next year.

We had a very nice stay at the Vanderbilt Beach Resort in Naples, Florida. The room was very clean and well maintained , and the staff was very friendly and attentive throughout our stay. The location is beautiful and have the very best sunsets in all of Naples! We will be back very soon!

Resort is fantastic, but the service from Lauren is unmatched! Our first day she checked us in and was so nice to our family! The next day she is working on the beach then she makes a point to come say hi to us at dinner! Lauren and staff make this place!!
