The location - 4 blocks from the beach, 2 blocks from restaurants and shopping on 5th Ave South. The room was very spacious and 1940's style - 1 floor, no one above you. The set up of the furniture in the room (Room #1), the ease of checking in - key lock box on the door so no worries about when we arrived. Free bottled water every day and free use of the washer and dryer and detergent. Shampoo, Conditioner and body wash all in a dispenser in the shower. Plenty of clean white towels to use. 2 Beach chairs and beach towels in the room ready to use - no need to go to the office to ask anyone. K cups for the Kuerig. A kitchen with everything you could need for breakfast or snacks.

Nothing - we really did not want for anything.

When I opened the door, the room smelled so good and it was so clean! 5 min walk to the most beautiful beach, 10 min walk to the 5th avenue where all the good restaurants are! that are so many different varieties! and get some ice cream as well! everything I tried was delicious! Everyday I got back to my room it was cleaned and organized again! They really made me feel taken care of and special! And the bed was sooo comfortable! it was hard to leave lol I am so glad I stayed there and I am not staying any other place when I go back! It made my trip extra special! 🙏🏼🫶🏻🙏🏼🫶🏻🙌🏻

everything was perfect!

As soon as I arrived, the owner/manager gave me an upgrade to a better room, with a fully equipped kitchen, which was very useful considering the restaurant prices nearby. The location is perfect and walking distance from the 5th Avenue South, the commercial street with good restaurants and stores, just three blocks away. Also, it is walking distance from the beach (~8min). The room was equipped with a nice couch, dining table, beach chairs, beach towels, etc. Good soft mattress and powerful air conditioning. In general, the room seems pretty new. There's also wash and dryer machines available for guest in the common area. Parking was free and there were enough spots for all cars. Overall, the neighborhood is pretty charming and safe. Naples is a great destination for those who want to relax near a white sand beach. I would certainly stay again at the Gondolier Inn.

Right off the bat, we were greeted with an immaculately clean room. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we were able to crank the A/C (a must-have in FL!). Being so close to the beach, we were able to keep our car at the hotel and easily walk. 5th Avenue was also within walking distance so we were able to walk there to grab dinner and breakfast the next morning. The beach chairs provided were perfect. The room had everything we needed and there were ample tv streaming platforms available. Check-in was contactless & very simple. The rooms have been tastefully updated whilst still keeping that vintage charm—Palm Springs vibes for sure! 10/10 stay!

I booked a queen room but was upgraded to a suite on the day of my arrival which was a pleasant surprise. The room was clean and comfortable, very quiet. I like the vibe of the room and of the whole place. It was great to have a kitchenette in the room, a washer, and a dryer on site, and free bottled water. Stuff was very friendly and responsive. The location couldn't be beaten as it is right in the middle between the beach, Third Street, and Fifth Avenue. Great value for money.

Amazing location! as others have surely said. Some as us will love the throwback to Old Florida, certainly not to be found elsewhere in Old Naples/ Small staff is very friendly and the rooms are well equipped.

Clean for the most part but walking barefoot revealed that some extra floor sweeping would be in order. It is so close to the beach, after all, and why we and most others choose to stay here. This overstates the issue, for sure. It's a great choice!

Vintage mid-century motel in a lovely part of Naples, 10 minutes walking distance to both Naples beach and 5th Ave South. Our room was spacious and tastefully furnished with contemporary furniture. The Gondolier offers beach chairs, parasol and beach towels in the rooms as well as free water. Our host was very nice and made us feel very welcome. We asked for a later check-out and were able to stay till midday the following day. We really hope the Gondolier manages to keep up retro vibe in the fast changing neighborhood with all the massive houses being built all around the place. The Gondolier is a true vintage gem.

Downside in an otherwise lovely place - bedsheets are 100% polyester - not something we enjoy sleeping in. At 300 USD per night cotton sheets should be a matter of course.

The location was really fantastic! An easy walk to the beach and to the shops and restaurants on 5th Avenue. We appreciated having a kitchenette in the room so we could make our own breakfast and the fridge was the perfect size for our 4-day stay. It was a nice bonus that they provided free bottled water and free use of the washer and dryer.

The only thing our room lacked was a full length mirror.

Beautiful Retro renovated property & the location is perfect. It’s within walking distance to the beach & shop’s & restaurants. The owner greeted us and welcomed us. You could tell he has poured his heart & soul into the renovation of this beautiful place. There’s everything you could want or need here. And if there’s anything else you need you can text him.

There was nothing about the property we didn’t like.

This place is amazing, cuter and cleaner than many other 3-star hotels we’ve been to in the US. Staff is wonderful, location is top notch, walking distance from the beach and from 5th avenue (main street) where lots of restaurants and shops are. Free parking on premise, laundry available. Rooms are cosy, quite big and well equipped (2 AC, 2 TVs…). Bed is super comfortable. If you are travelling as a couple, do not browse any further, this is true value for money, we wished we stayed longer!
