However, residents of Naples, Florida, have no such dilemma, as U.S. News & World Report recently recognized Naples as the best place to live in 2024. The greater Naples area offers an active lifestyle, pristine white-sand beaches, and luxury amenities. At The Island at West Bay Club, a new condominium coming to the Naples area, future residents will have the rare opportunity to enjoy the best of the region while their home is being built. Let’s explore what makes Naples living so unique, and why many are choosing to enjoy it through The Island at West Bay.
First Stop – Championship Golf Course
Naples, Florida, has an international reputation for its stunning natural scenery and exceptional golf courses. Nicknamed the golf capital of the world, Florida enjoys more golf holes per capita than anywhere else in the nation, making it a hub for players of all skill levels. With many of the courses located within private club communities, securing a spot on these exclusive greens can be challenging. Tee times fill up quickly, and many communities have waitlists for Membership. Yet, there are still a wealth of private clubs golf lovers can choose from in the area. One of the most favored choices by many is the championship golf course at West Bay Club, a private club community located just north of Naples in Estero.
The West Bay Golf Course was designed by Pete and P.B. Dye and spans over 4 acres. Ranging from 4,208 to 6,939 yards, seven sets of tees are found at every hole, welcoming players of all experiences. The course goes beyond typical layouts by weaving 18 holes through wetlands, where players often feel they’re on a nature trail as much as a golf course. In addition to the state-of-the-art course, the West Bay golf staff curate events for friendly competition and clinics to take skills to the next level. Member invitational tournaments and golf socials are held throughout the year, inspiring Members to continue advancing their skills in a social ambiance.
Second Stop – Stunning Florida Beaches
Beyond prestigious golf clubs, the Naples area has an international reputation for its pristine beaches. Clam Pass Park and Naples Beach are few of the many beaches that feature powder-soft sand and turquoise-clear waters. For those who prefer a more private beach experience, West Bay Club is the only community in the area that has a private Beach Club. Located on Little Hickory Island just a short drive from the community, this recently renovated retreat provides Members with direct access to the Gulf of Mexico’s clear waters and powder-soft sand. An indoor/outdoor dining venue allows Members to enjoy a Key West-inspired menu and the rejuvenating Florida breeze. The Beach Club also offers a range of services, including valet parking and attentive beach attendants who deliver food, towels, and water directly to Members on the sand.
