“Naples residents enjoy a high quality of life, which could explain why so many Americans are eager to relocate to Southwest Florida,” notes U.S. News & World Report. Travel + Leisure Magazine says, “With its pristine nine-mile coastline dotted with white-sand beaches, luxury resorts, fine dining restaurants, and golf courses, Naples is the ultimate Florida beach getaway.”
With so much praise for this coastal town, demand for luxury residences has been climbing consistently. Top priorities for homebuyers include a waterfront lifestyle, proximity to Naples’ 5th Avenue and walkability to premier arts, culinary, and entertainment destinations. It’s a lifestyle choice that reflects a desire for convenience, connectivity, and an elevated way of living. Now, residents who cherish the Naples area on Florida’s Paradise Coast can find exactly what they are looking for, but the opportunity is limited.
Centrally located just blocks from the center of town, Palazzo is a new luxury condominium offering, and the final residences available at Bayfront Naples. This landmark mixed-use community enjoys the distinction of being immediately adjacent to the highly anticipated new Gulfshore Playhouse and is nestled on the waterfront with a private marina and boat docks available to residents.
For those who prefer the ability to leave their car in the garage while they enjoy a stroll in Downtown Naples, there are few options available for new construction today. Palazzo will include 35 spacious and carefree luxury condominiums, showcasing the finest finishes and innovation in today’s home interiors. Let’s take a deeper look at what’s nearby.
Bayfront Naples
Bayfront Naples is a recognizable landmark for the Naples region. The colorful shopping district exudes Mediterranean charm.

Dining options range from a popular coffee shop and casual waterfront eateries to an elegant French bistro. The newest addition includes B & B Italia, an elite interior design studio featuring the latest selections in furniture, bath and kitchen interiors. Renowned innovators in the field since the 1960’s, B&B Italia’s approach to contemporary design has won them numerous awards and an unprecedented reputation. An on-site marina offers seamless access to Naples Bay, which leads out to the Gulf of Mexico. For boating enthusiasts, the Freedom Boat Club offers a convenient membership service, making it easy to reserve a boat for sunset cruises, fishing trips, or leisurely day excursions.
