Own a villa on the Gulf Coast !
Relax in a attractive Gulf Coast property - great locations for
those seeking a 'golf retirement home'.
Naples
Naples, located on Florida's
Gulf Coast, has been called 'Florida's best kept secret' and the
'Jewel of the South'. After falling in love with Naples ourselves
we bought a home there in 1998.
If you are thinking of buying your
Florida home in Naples please note that properties are more expensive
than in the Central Florida (Orlando) area.
Naples has fewer development opportunities
than Central Florida and is a sought after location.
Naples homes and villas are typically
twice the price as a similar property in Orlando, but rental returns
are also higher. In the case of luxury villas the sky's the limit
in Naples so you'll be in good company here !
So the Naples real estate market is just as active
as the Orlando one but for somewhat different reasons
Though Orlando has the 'Magic Kingdom' distance
lends Naples enchantment - Naples will suit those who just like
to relax, or maybe even retire, in style.
Gulf Coast Beaches
There are several spacious Gulf Coast beaches
within easy reach of Naples.

Golf
Heaven
Naples is a golfers paradise with many
stunning courses both public and private.
There are about 1,300 golf courses in Florida,
most of which have been built in the last 40 years and one-quarter
of which are less than 10 years old. The majority of the new course
construction in the state is done as part of a larger, planned community
that includes housing.
Golf is a huge business throughout the state,
employing 72,000 and producing revenues of $4.4 billion in 2000.
In addition, Florida's 3.1-million golf tourists are estimated to
account for about $23 billion a year in related spending.
