About the Resort
Edgewater Beach Hotel is an all-suite beachfront hotel in Naples, Florida, offering spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom accommodations directly on the Gulf. Unlike a traditional hotel room, our suites feature separate living and sleeping spaces, kitchens, and private balconies. Guests also enjoy direct beach access, two heated outdoor pools, beachfront dining, and convenient access to downtown Naples and 5th Avenue South.
Yes. Edgewater Beach Hotel is located directly on the Gulf in Naples, with seven miles of white-sand beach just steps from the hotel. Unlike Naples hotels that require a shuttle, boardwalk, or drive to reach the beach, Edgewater provides direct beachfront access from the resort. Beach and pool access are reserved exclusively for registered hotel guests.
Edgewater Beach Hotel is well suited for several types of travelers. Families and multigenerational groups appreciate the spacious suites, kitchens, separate living areas, two heated pools, and direct beach access, while couples enjoy Gulf views, beachfront dining, sunsets, and convenient access to downtown Naples. The hotel’s one-, two-, and three-bedroom suites also make it a practical choice for friends traveling together and extended stays.
No. Edgewater Beach Hotel is not an all-inclusive resort. Guests can customize their stay with on-site dining, beach and pool service, watersports, and experiences throughout Naples. Suites also feature kitchens, giving guests the flexibility to prepare some meals in their accommodations while enjoying Coast, the pool bar, and Naples restaurants for others.
Getting Here & Transportation
Edgewater Beach Hotel is located at 1901 Gulf Shore Boulevard North in Naples, Florida, directly on the Gulf and approximately 2.5 miles from downtown Naples. The location combines a quiet beachfront setting with convenient access to the restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and entertainment of 5th Avenue South and Third Street South.
Naples Airport (APF) is approximately 6.4 miles from Edgewater Beach Hotel, while Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW) near Fort Myers is approximately 32 miles away and is the primary commercial airport for many visitors to Naples. Edgewater does not provide an airport shuttle, but the hotel concierge can assist with arranging transportation.
Not necessarily. Guests planning to spend most of their vacation at the beach, pools, and resort can comfortably enjoy Edgewater without driving every day. The hotel also provides trolley transportation to 5th Avenue South, where guests will find numerous restaurants, shops, and galleries. A car can be helpful if you plan to explore destinations further throughout Naples, Marco Island, or Southwest Florida.
Yes. Self-parking for one vehicle is included through the resort fee. Additional vehicles must be valeted for a nightly fee of $25 plus tax, or $100 plus tax per night over holidays. Due to the limited parking available, additional vehicles will be turned away when the lot reaches capacity.
Accommodations
Edgewater Beach Hotel offers spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom suites with Naples, Gulf, and beachfront views. Gulf View suites overlook the palm-lined pool area toward the Gulf, while Beachfront suites offer direct views of the beach and water. Ground-floor Lanai Suites provide especially convenient access, with select Beachfront Lanai Suites opening directly toward the beach and Gulf View Lanai Suites offering easy pool-deck access.
The best suite depends on your priorities. Beachfront suites are ideal for travelers who want to look directly out at the beach, while Gulf View suites combine pool and Gulf scenery. Naples View suites can be a good choice for travelers more focused on space and resort access than a water view. Lanai suites offer convenient ground-floor access, and two- and three-bedroom options provide additional space for families and groups traveling together.
Yes. Edgewater’s suites feature kitchens with full-size refrigerators, microwaves, and in-room coffee makers. Suites in the courtyard buildings also have electric stovetops, while Tower suites do not.

Yes. Edgewater Beach Hotel suites feature private balconies, with views varying by accommodation category. Guests can choose from Naples, Gulf, or beachfront views, while select ground-floor Lanai Suites provide direct access toward the pool deck or beach.
Edgewater is particularly well suited for families because its suites provide significantly more space than a standard hotel room. Separate bedrooms and living areas give families room to spread out, while kitchens make breakfasts, snacks, and meals with young children more convenient. Cribs, high chairs, booster seats, and rollaway beds are also available upon request, with fees applying to rollaways.

There are several advantages you miss out on when you don’t book direct, including:
- Exclusive Offers – When you book through our website, you unlock exclusive offers you won’t see on third-party sites. These specials add extra value to your stay, from savings on longer getaways and seasonal promotions to curated experiences you won’t find anywhere else.
- Access to More Availability/Room Types – There are limits on the inventory sold through online travel agencies, so when you book directly, you’ll find the widest availability and most access to every room type – making it easier to choose the perfect fit for your stay.
- True Customer Service – From booking to checkout, you’ll work directly with the people who know the property best. Our concierge and front-desk staff can tailor recommendations, handle special requests, and anticipate your needs to ensure every detail of your getaway is seamless, stress-free, and exactly the experience you’re looking for. OTAs will never do that.
Absolutely. When you book direct, any changes or cancellations are handled quickly and personally by our hotel team or our dedicated Opal Collection reservations team – no middleman, no hassle. With OTA reservations, adjustments have to go through large centralized call centers that manage thousands of properties, which often means longer wait times and less flexibility.
When booking online, always pay attention to the search results – and be on the lookout for scammy imitation sponsored ads from OTAs. Make sure the link points to the hotel’s official domain (opalcollection.com/edgewater) or booking engine (reservations.opalcollection.com/edgewater), not a third-party site. And, when in doubt, start at the hotel’s homepage or call the property.
Direct Booking Benefits
Yes, booking directly on Edgewater Beach Hotel’s website always gives you confidence you’re getting the best value. Many online travel agencies (OTAs) may advertise what looks like a lower rate, but that’s often because they don’t show associated fees upfront. Once the OTAs factor those in (usually at the last step in the booking process), the cost typically matches (or is more than) what you’d pay by booking direct – except without the benefits that come with booking straight from the source.
