Florida's Naples Beach Club Hotel Will Be Back This Fall as a Four Seasons—Take a First Look Inside
Florida's Gulf Coast hotel scene is getting a glamorous glow-up this fall with the arrival of Naples Beach Club, a Four Seasons Resort. Taking over the renowned Naples Beach Club Hotel & Golf Club, the resort will feature 163 guest rooms, 57 suites, and 153 residences. The renovated hotel sits on 1,000 feet of sandy shoreline in Old Naples and will offer a balance of the Gulf Coast's natural beauty and local Naples charm with residential-style accommodations. The ocean-themed guest rooms have expansive terraces with daybeds, walk-in closets, and dining nooks, alongside eye-catching decor elements such as flamingo pink or periwinkle blue lacquered cabinetry. The Resort View One Bedroom Suite features ocean-inspired interiors and expansive private terraces, allowing guests to enjoy seamless indoor-outdoor living. Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort 'We are thrilled to unveil a brand-new resort that reinterprets the beloved destination of Naples for the next generation of guests, residents, and the local community when we open later this year,' Antoine Chahwan, the president of hotel operations for the Americas division at Four Seasons, said in a statement. 'As this highly anticipated opening comes to life, the Four Seasons culture of service and excellence will ensure an exceptional experience, further inspired by the spirit of this treasured location.' The new Four Seasons also encompasses a 125-acre residential and golf resort, which will include The Gardens, a Tom Fazio-redesigned 18-hole golf course slated to open next year. On the residential front, Naples Beach Club will include 58 luxury condos across three beachfront buildings, while 95 luxury condos will be offered across five residential buildings facing the golf course. 'Naples Beach Club is our modern expression of the cherished traditions and style of Naples,' the resort's general manager Diego Angarita said in a statement. 'Our team cannot wait to open the doors, welcome guests and connect with the community, establishing the property as a social hub and gathering place for locals and visitors alike.' Four Seasons tapped two-time James Beard Award winner Gavin Kaysen for The Merchant Room, Naples Beach Club's signature dining venue and his first restaurant outside the Midwest. Kaysen's arrival signals a polished-yet-approachable style to a menu of seasonal Gulf Coast–inspired dishes with French finesse, served indoors and al fresco with front-row views of the water. 24 Best Weekend Getaways in Florida 18 Best Family Beaches in Florida The resort's oceanfront Sunset Bar. Naples Beach Club, A Four Seasons Resort Another venue is one that guests and locals are likely to recognize. HB's, the beloved beachfront, returns with a breezy makeover and a toes-in-the-sand vibe. It is named for Henry B. Watkins, who founded the original Naples Beach Hotel, and pays homage to the past in a space built for sunset seafood feasts and barefoot cocktails. Sunset Bar is also planned for a revival in the new hotel, reclaiming its status as the go-to spot in town for golden hour with a mai tai on the side. Naples Beach Club guests will also have access to Market Square, a multifaceted bazaar that includes Naples Trading Company for grab-and-go provisions as well as entertainment options, such as a four-lane bowling alley, private screening room, game room, and a putting green. Market Square also features the supervised FINS Club for Kids, a mix of open-air and indoor event spaces, and, beginning in 2026, The Wager, a sports pub. Those looking for more laid-back vibes can enjoy a treatment at the 30,000-square-foot Sanctuary Spa with a rooftop lap pool and a Harley Pasternak-designed gym. This being Naples, the star of the show is obviously the beach. Attentive staffers will be on hand for towel drops and spritz refills, as well as to help arrange water sports or beach games. Save at least one sunset for aboard the 34-foot classic Hinckley Picnic Boat, offered exclusively to hotel guests. Those who are more about pool time than splashing in the Gulf can enjoy two different options, both surrounded by loungers and private cabanas. A family-friendly splash area is also available. Guests who like to venture off-site can enjoy a variety of experiences, ranging from exploring Everglades National Park to shopping Fifth Avenue South in downtown Naples, or attending a night at the Naples Philharmonic. Nightly rates at Naples Beach Club, a Four Seasons Resort start at $1,100. Reservations are now open for stays beginning November 24, 2025, and can be booked on

3-Time America's Cup Champion Peter Burling Joins Luna Rossa Ahead of 2027 Regatta Off Naples
Three-time America's Cup champion Peter Burling has joined Luna Rossa ahead of the 2027 regatta off Naples, the Italian team announced Friday. Burling left Team New Zealand in April after nearly a decade in which he steered his home boats to three consecutive America's Cup trophies. Luna Rossa said Burling is ready to contribute both in sailing performance and technical development as the team gears up for the next America's Cup campaign. Barring a change in protocol concerning team changes, Burling likely won't be able to be aboard Luna Rossa and will have to remain on shore. Luna Rossa CEO Max Sirena praised Burling's exceptional sailing talent and his sportsmanship. 'Even though his exact role has yet to be defined, he will certainly be part of the sailing team, reinforcing Luna Rossa's core leadership group and contributing to key areas of our development program,' Sirena said. Burling is a former Olympic sailing gold medalist and nine-time world champion. He became Team New Zealand helmsman in 2017 and, at 26, steered the boat to a 7–1 victory over Oracle Team USA in Bermuda. That made him the youngest helmsman to win the America's Cup. Burling was skipper and helmsman when Team New Zealand successfully defended the America's Cup in 2021 in Auckland, New Zealand, and 2024 in Barcelona. 'I've always loved racing against Luna Rossa, and now to join this iconic team is a real honor,' Burling said. 'The innovation and competitiveness they bring to the Cup has always inspired me. I'm grateful for the warm welcome, and I'm looking forward to working hard alongside a world-class team, doing my part to help win Luna Rossa's first America's Cup.'
