Active beachfront enclave

With its white sands, Mediterranean-style homes and beachfront condominiums, Coquina Sands is a luxurious neighborhood where locals can walk to the Gulf of Mexico. It’s an active residential area that was the northernmost section of Naples when the city established in 1887. Locals start their mornings with beach yoga, play volleyball with neighbors and ride their bikes up and down the streets.
Coquina Sands residents have direct access to the sandy beaches and verdant waters of the Gulf.

The great outdoors

Florida’s Gulf Coast is known for its sugar white sand beaches and aquamarine waters, where the waves aren’t as choppy as their east coast counterparts. It’s a slower-paced lifestyle than Miami and Daytona Beach, and Naples is the ultimate beachfront relaxation spot for those who can afford it. Coquina Sands locals can walk to Lowdermilk Park, a public park and beach with volleyball courts and gazebos. The area is bike-friendly, making riding on wide, well-paved roads easy. “Residents are very active in Coquina Sands,” says Michele Klinowski with the Naples Golf Guy Team at Downing-Frye Realty Inc. “They’re walking, running and biking. They’re playing tennis and pickleball.”

New hotel and condo development

Coquina Sands is already luxurious, but more glitz and glamour is coming. Four Seasons will manage a new, under-construction facility planned to replace the Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club. Developers plan to scale the current structure from 319 rooms to 216 and add condo towers facing the beach and the nearby golf course. But the city of Naples intervened to make sure the resort development fits right in. The new resort will bring attention to the neighborhood, but the city still wants to maintain the local charm. “The city is very focused on ensuring that, aesthetically, it still has the charm and significance of what Naples has to offer,” says Klinowski.

Gorgeous mansions and coastal condos

Naples is known for its top-tier Florida architecture, and Coquina Sands is no exception. Bayfront penthouses can go for $7 million, and brand-new stucco mansions can cost $12 million. Many homes have Mediterranean influences, but Key West and coastal homes also exist. Newer homes emphasize floor-to-ceiling windows and infinity pools. As beautiful as it is, things can get dicey during hurricane season. Hurricane Ian, for example, caused widespread damage in 2022, and Naples is still recovering. Coastal Florida and inland areas near rivers are all susceptible to storm damage.
