My family and I stayed at The Vanderbilt Beach Resort in May 2013. This was our third visit here and have enjoyed it every time. The first two times we stayed, our condo was updated and lovely which made me wonder where the negative reviews came from. This time we stayed in a condo that wasn't as updated. I guess... More

The Vanderbilt Beach Resort is "Old Florida," meaning it's not a new, concrete monolith on the beach. It's a small, family owned hotel and restaurant (The Turtle Club) located right on on of the prettiest stretches of beach in the Naples area. It's neighbors include the Ritz Carlton, Waldorf Astoria and Noble House's LaPlaya. The hotel rooms are located in... More

I have been going to Naples for year. Every trip I always leave time to watch the sunset at my favorite restaurant "Turtle Club". The restaurant is located on the property. Last year we decided to do a family reunion and give this this place a try because of the amazing location - next door to The Ritz Carlton. The... More

I had gone to this hotel several times in the late 90's and early 00's. Back then it was a 100+ room hotel on the beach, makin a U shape around the pool with a bar area. This past visit there was only one side of the U left and the other part had been sold to developers of condos.... More

We stayed in a condo on the bayside for a long weekend. We were in Naples for a wedding and the resort was conveniently located near my in-laws condo and it was available for less than a week. After a brief mix up at check in, when we were given the keys to an already occupied unit, things went smoothly.... More

My family lived in Naples for 30 years, and when I go to visit them, I always go and have a drink at sunset at the Tiki bar at VBR. To me, this is really Florida. Immaculate beach, excellent service, beautiful view of the sunset, tiki torches at dusk, children building sand castles....what more can you ask for?

We Loved the place. Stayed 4 nights Feb 2013 and am currently trying to book for Feb next year. Wish I had done it before leaving at reception becos at the moment I am finding the online calendar unavailable for 2014. Maybe they are doing refurbishments or decorating in some rooms owing to comments on this site. But the room... More

This was our first trip to Naples and the VBR was the perfect place for us to stay. We had a one bedroom apt. on the gulf side and it was neat as a pin. The bed was so comfortable and the newly remodeled bathroom was very nice. Our place was just steps from the beautiful beach and the people... More

I just returned from my second stay here at VBR and it was great. I was happy to see that the bathrooms were updated and they looked great. The water pressure was much better than last year. They are working on the outside to support the balconies and spruce up the appearance of the exterior. I'm hoping by next year... More
