February 5, 2013 - Continually enhancing its offerings, The Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club in Southwest Florida has completed its latest phase of renovations and enhancements. This $5 million phase includes the opening of a new Gulf-view ballroom that features spectacular panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico, and which is Naples' only beachfront ballroom. This phase also included the complete renovation of the remaining guest rooms in the resort's Florida Wing, and the complete renovation of the resort's Gulf-side meeting rooms and pre-function space. With the completion of these guest rooms, all of the resort's 317 guest rooms and suites have been renovated and remodeled over the last three years. The 125-acre resort, which features 34,000 square feet of first-class meeting space plus many beautiful outdoor venues, is Southwest Florida's only resort directly on the beach with an on-site championship golf course, a world-class spa, and an award-winning tennis center.

This $5 million latest phase of improvements follows $40 million spent by the resort over the last five years. That multi-phase project included the renovation and remodeling of the other guest rooms and suites, enhancements to the golf course, the renovation and expansion of The Sunset Beach Bar & Grill, and the addition of a beautiful beachfront pool complex (with two new pools, two new whirlpools, a new pool bar with food service, new restrooms, new locker facilities, and a new pool shop).

In this latest phase, the resort has opened The Everglades Room, a new beachfront ballroom that features a wall of windows that provides incredible panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico. The 5,000-square-foot ballroom is dedicated for corporate events, banquets, weddings, and social events. Located where the resort's Everglades Dining Room (which served breakfast) was situated, the beautifully-enhanced Everglades Room features dramatic vaulted ceilings covered with rich draped fabric.

The resort also has debuted two completely renovated Gulf-side meeting rooms. Gulfbreeze North is 1,097 square feet, and Gulfbreeze South is 1,159 square feet. The renovation of the adjacent pre-function space also is now complete.

With the renovation of the guest rooms in the Florida Wing, the resort also now features two new suites, which also can be used as hospitality suites for groups.

A recipient of many meeting industry awards, the resort offers a variety of venues for meetings and receptions. The resort features 34,000 square feet of meeting space, most with an impressive view overlooking the championship golf course. Venue options include the 6,283-square-foot River of Grass Ballroom, the 2,457-square-foot Mangrove Ballroom, and such scenic outdoor venues as the Watkins Lawn and the Ocean Lawn.

Rich in hospitality and tradition, The Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club has resided on the Southwest coast in Naples since 1946. Owned and operated by the Watkins family for three generations, this 317-room resort is home to the city of Naples' only beachfront restaurant, HB's on the Gulf. The resort is further complemented by 1,000 feet of white-sand beach, an array of dining options (including The Seminole Store that serves deli sandwiches, ice cream, and wonderful desserts), multiple bars (including the popular Sunset Beach Bar & Grill), retail shops, beach rentals, and a complimentary kids club.

Groups and guests can experience the area by taking tours of the Everglades, Naples Zoo at Caribbean Gardens, Corkscrew Swamp, The Botanical Gardens, or the Conservancy Nature Center. Boat and fishing trips also can be arranged at the hotel. Other leisure time activities can include Naples' outstanding museums, theatres, and art galleries.

The Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club is a perfect destination for meetings, conventions, incentives, and special events of all kinds. Situated just blocks from Naples' renowned shopping districts of fashionable 5th Avenue South and historic 3rd Street South, the resort is located at 851 Gulf Shore Blvd. North in Naples.
