SERENITY Naples Beach Condo

💲Why pay the high prices at The Ritz Carlton or La Playa Hotel for just a hotel room when you can have so much more and the privacy of being in your own condo! 😎

WATER, WATER, EVERYWHERE! Enjoy spectacular views from every room in this STUNNING 9th floor condominium overlooking the Gulf of Mexico and Vanderbilt Bay all the way to Sanibel Island! Let the unobstructed, forever views over the Gulf of Mexico take you away from the day to day. Come relish the peacefulness and views from your private lanai. You will enjoy watching the birds soar above the mangroves, sailboats in the Gulf and kayakers in the bay. Or focus on the dolphins & manatees at play while the boats, kayaks & paddle boarders pass by - all from the comfort of your lanai. Surrounded by the beauty and sounds of nature, you may never want to leave. That is true SERENITY!

Treat yourself to the ultimate luxury. Designer inspired décor, new kitchen designed to maximize the dazzling gulf views, beautiful waterfall granite countertops, high porcelain gloss flooring throughout, high end fixtures, fantastic lighting, luxurious bathrooms, all new appliances, and every detail was well thought out for the ultimate in comfort and better than a 5-Star hotel.

We designed two master suites where you wake up with the beautiful views of the gulf. Each suite is on separate sides of the condo for added privacy. EACH SUITE has plush king beds, luxurious linens, custom closets, private large en-suite bathrooms with walk in showers and great lighting. Both suites have sliders that also access the lanai. They are set up

Open concept main living area with the kitchen, dining room a great room opening to the screened lanai spanning 24 feet. Enjoy your morning coffee and dinner on the lanai with those views. WOW!

Let’s not forget to mention while relaxing in your Natuzzi leather dual reclining sofa, you will enjoy the custom-built wall with a recessed 65-inch HD Smart TV and the 5 ft long remote-controlled fireplace enhances the ambience…now that is how to unwind after your day.

But first, how will you spend your time here? Enjoying cocktails while watching the sunset from your lanai? During the day we enjoy watch the many kayaks, paddle borders and boats in the bay. Perhaps you will walk to the beach for a quiet stroll or a day on the beach. Just a short 5-minute walk thru the community to Vanderbilt or Wiggins Pass Beach. We have your beach chairs, beach cart, umbrellas & even beach towels!

Wonderful Vacay

This property was five star. The condo is beautifully renovated with upscale selections, including designer furniture, lighted bathroom mirrors, a ribbon fireplace, and automated blinds. It is well stocked. The hosts have thought of everything, from sunscreen to laundry detergent indoors, to pickle ball paddles, beach chairs, and bikes outdoors. Communication was excellent. Any questions were answered immediately. A beautiful view over the channel to the ocean, about a four minute walk to the beach. The building was quiet, the beds were comfortable. One of the best VRBOs we’ve stayed in, and we’ve stayed in many.

Five Star Hotel Quality - Better Than The Ritz !

This was my 3rd stay at Serenity Naples. It is a gorgeous property — the quality of the interior finishes is only surpassed by the breathtaking views of the canals and the Gulf from the 9th floor western looking vantage point. Beautiful sunsets, but also beautiful in the early morning hours. The hosts are outstanding — and have addressed every guest need that I could imagine — they have taken great care to provide for their guests. The proximity to the amazing beach is hard to beat at an approx 3 minute walk. That feature was important to me and did not disappoint. I am a very particular consumer and surprisingly, have no constructive criticism to offer. I recommend Serenity Naples without hesitation. It will exceed your expectations.

Perfect - relaxing, quite, beautiful

We had an amazing stay at Serenity! There are so many wonderful things about the condo - highly recommend! First, it's SO clean and beautiful. When you first walk in, the view is just stunning ! Kim and Steve have thought of everything too. You will need for nothing during your stay as the condo is fully stocked and well appointed. The beds are so comfortable, the remote blinds (LOVE), the screened patio ... so relaxing. It's also a very quiet location which only adds to the ambiance. Also, you can see the ocean while taking a shower - bonus! We pretty much had the pool to ourselves during our whole stay and even if we didn't, it's such nice size you wouldn't feel cramped. The beach is a short walk and chairs are provided. We cannot wait to come back. This was definitely one of the most relaxing vacations we've had in a while!

Just Amazing

Kim and Steve were a pleasure to deal with. The condo was in absolutely perfect condition when we arrived. Details to get access to the condo were clear and detailed making it easy. The views were fantastic. Being a 10 minute walk or 3 minute drive to the beach made my week in Naples absolutely fantastic

Serenity - the perfect name. So quiet, perfect place to relax & enjoy yourself. Best condo yet!

We have stayed many places around various beaches and this one by far exceeded expectations. The location is great. View is stunning. Condo is immaculate. I have never stayed a place that literally makes going to the beach so easy. The wagon, the cart, the chairs & umbrellas. Everything. Welcomed with a case of cold bottled water in the fridge is just what you need in the Florida heat. The water pressure in showers & kitchen sink is like no other. Speakers make music easy. The coffee maker options, blender, and overall kitchen is stocked with everything. Wine cooler is impressive! We did have a small child with us, but with the cleanliness, upscale feel of this property & stunning decorations - I’d suggest adults only to just enjoy the peace! View from the balcony is great to sit and just enjoy in the comfy chairs or kick out a laptop on the table and work for a bit. There is a desk & printer even onsite. The pool is huge and temperature perfect. Amazing place to stay and justminutes from the beach. Beach is very clean and perfect place to swim, jump waves or just sit and read! Couldn’t have asked for a better host. Excellent communication. Easy check in and access. Literally the best!

Phenomenal!

This property was gorgeous, so clean, & incredibly well stocked. They literally thought of everything. Kim & Steve go above & beyond in every aspect. The location is fabulous and the views are stunning. The beds/pillows are comfortable & the linens are plush. We loved the marble floors throughout, pillow protectors (!!!!!), screened in patio, remote control blinds, streaming services offered, app they sent us with tons of helpful/organized info, mirror defrosters in the bathrooms, candles, and so many other personal touches! Can't wait to visit again, & highly recommend renting here!

Fully Stocked Condo Everything Undated!!Great Views

We really enjoyed our time in February. The owners have everything you could possibly imagine in the unit. The kitchen is fully stocked! We had 2 very nice bikes with locks to ride and tons of beach gear, all which was easily accessible. We used the bikes to ride to the beach for sunsets, just a 3 minute ride, as for the time we were there the sun was behind a building and we could not see it set into ocean from Lanai. They were great views from the lanai facing north of the Gulf of Mexico. We love watching the sun go into the ocean. The sunsets at the beach were incredible every night!! Thanks Steve and Kim for being so responsive during our stay.

Naples Gem

What a very special property! The views are brilliant (ocean and canal) which you can see from all rooms in the condo! We watched the sunset every evening from the very spacious lanai. We spent most of our time outside on the lanai either reading a book, having breakfast and dinner outside or even watching a baseball game (you can see the living room tv from the lanai.) The condo is beautifully remodeled and very equipped with anything and everything you would need (including beach chairs, bikes, ice chest etc.). The location is prime with a very short walk to the beautiful Vanderbilt Beach and to many restaurants and hotel bars. Everything about this place is top-notch! Thank you Kim and Steve for making our stay so incredibly perfect.

WOW! 5 Star PLUS+

My husband and I were impressed by this property through photos but WOW in person! All renovated..everything clean, fresh and fully stocked. I enjoyed a quick, easy walk to the either Vanderbilt Beach or Wiggins each day while my husband preferred to sit on the lanai that had amazing, peaceful views of the bay AND ocean. We watched dolphins, boaters and beautiful wildlife all day long! Both bedrooms had breathtaking views as well! Great pool and quiet neighbors. Between location, immaculate conditions and outstanding customer service from host, we will be back!

Awesome

From the warm greeting to the beautiful condo and perfect location we could not enjoy our stay more. It is well named because the area is serene and quite but the beach is just minutes away. The condo is very romantic and we had the perfect view of the sunset every night. We simply couldn’t rate this experience higher!

About the host

Hosted by Pinnacle Property Concierge Services (Kim, Debbie, Steve & Team PPCS)

We work hard and in our free time love to travel! We are originally from St. Louis, MO & Chicago, Illinois and we are some years away from retirement so in the mean time we have enjoyed sharing our Naples home with others via VRBO. We have friends in Naples and we fell in love with everything Naples offers after our first visit in 2011. Through all our travels the allure of Naples kept pointing us back to here as our future home for retirement. In 2014 we purchased our first Naples home in Riverstone and then in 2019 decided we were ready to build a new home in a golf community. Esplanade was our #1 choice, so we decided to build BLISS!

In the summer of 2020 with the opportunity of working remote we purchased a condo near Vanderbilt Beach and began the process of a total renovation of our SERENITY Beach Condo which we will now be offering for vacation renters. Steve and I split our time between the beach condo, our lovely golf resort home and return to St. Louis as needed.

Why they chose this property

We knew we wanted to be near the beach and looked at numerous condos in the area. When we discovered this amazing area on the point surrounded by water we knew this had to be the location for us. We desired the gulf view but didn't want to be right on top of the beach as we value the peacefulness of this location. Then the day we came to see the property on a Sunday morning and their was a paddle board yoga class happening in the bay, kayakers out, seeing the boaters and THEN we saw dolphins swimming near we were SOLD! Everyday we wake up we feel energized and enjoy our morning walks on the beach and sunset beach time too!

What makes this property unique

Location, view, quiet, serene and easy access to so much!
The building does have a nice social room you can use, outdoor bar b que grill and a manager on duty during the week.

As owner managers though we are always just a text or phone call away.
