Old Naples (also known as Olde Naples) is the historic and cultural heart of Naples, Florida — a rare coastal neighborhood where walkable urban luxury, world-class Gulf beaches, and refined architecture converge into one of the most desirable residential addresses in the United States.
Defined by its proximity to Fifth Avenue South, Third Street South, and the Gulf of Mexico, Old Naples delivers a lifestyle that seamlessly blends beach living, fine dining, boutique shopping, and cultural experiences — all within a pedestrian-friendly environment that is virtually unmatched in Southwest Florida.
Whether as a primary residence, seasonal retreat, or legacy property, Old Naples continues to attract discerning buyers seeking location, lifestyle, and long-term value.
Old Naples encompasses the historic downtown core of Naples, stretching from the Gulf of Mexico eastward, and centered around the Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South corridors.
Key location advantages include:
Immediate Gulf beach access
Walkability to dining, shopping, and cultural venues
Central positioning within Naples
Easy access to nearby waterfront and boating neighborhoods
Old Naples is not a gated community — it is an authentic, open, historic neighborhood, prized for its accessibility and vibrant street life.
One of Old Naples’ defining attributes is its exceptional walkability, a feature rarely found in Florida coastal markets.
Residents enjoy:
Walking distance to white-sand Gulf beaches
Daily access to Fifth Avenue South and Third Street South
Easy strolls to Cambier Park, art shows, concerts, and festivals
Bikeable access to marinas, parks, and surrounding neighborhoods
This pedestrian-first lifestyle significantly enhances both quality of life and real estate value, particularly for buyers relocating from major urban centers.

Chef-driven restaurants and sidewalk cafés
Luxury boutiques and coastal fashion houses
Fine art galleries and cultural institutions
Rooftop lounges, wine bars, and live music venues
Seasonal festivals, art walks, and holiday celebrations
