Most visitors to Naples head straight for the beach — and that’s a great choice. But a growing number of guests are discovering that some of the finest vacation experiences in Southwest Florida happen a few miles inland, inside the gates of Lely Resort.
What Is Lely Resort?
Lely Resort is a masterplanned community in Naples, Florida, built around three championship golf courses and featuring resort-style amenities that most vacation destinations simply can’t match. For guests staying in a Lely property, the resort lifestyle comes standard.
Golf Like You Mean It
Three courses — the Flamingo Island Course (Robert Trent Jones Sr.), the Mustang Course (Lee Trevino), and the Classics Course — give golfers variety and challenge across a full week of rounds. Tee times are accessible, the courses are beautifully maintained, and the combination of open fairways and Southwest Florida scenery makes every round memorable.
The Player’s Club & Spa
Lely’s Player’s Club and Spa is a legitimate resort amenity — multiple pools (including a lagoon pool and lap pool), a fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and a full-service spa and restaurant. Many guests spend entire days here without setting foot outside the resort.
Quiet, Safe, and Well-Maintained
The neighborhoods within Lely are impeccably maintained and genuinely peaceful. It’s the kind of community where you feel comfortable taking an evening walk, letting kids ride bikes, or simply sitting on a lanai without the noise and crowds of a busier tourist area.
Still Close to Everything
Despite the resort atmosphere, Lely is just 20–25 minutes from Naples Beach, 15 minutes from excellent dining on Fifth Avenue South, and a short drive from Marco Island. You get the quiet of a resort with the access of a central location.
We have several properties within Lely Resort. Browse our Lely vacation rentals and see if this is the kind of base camp your Southwest Florida trip deserves.
