Welcome to Naples... | It doesn't get much sweeter |
...where La Dolce Vita meets the Gulf Coast of Florida. Once upon a time Naples used to be as sleepy as any other town you could find on the Gulf Coast. But in 1887, the entire town was purchased by a group of wealthy entrepeneurs from Kentucky, who reinvented it as a posh winter resort. |
|  | Dancing on the Beach Celebrities such as Hedy Lamarr & Greta Garbo flocked to Naples gorgeous white sand beaches to escape the dismal winter seasons of their homes in cold northern climates. That hasn’t changed today; movie stars & ex-presidents all have multi-million dollar winter estate homes in the Port Royal area, at the southern end of town. |
