South Naples

South Naples

Geographically running south of Davis Boulevard down to the Collier Boulevard (CR-951) bridge to Marco Island, South Naples is the ultimate playground for resort-style living.

While North Naples is known for its energetic shopping districts, South Naples is defined by sprawling master-planned communities, massive sparkling lakes, championship golf courses, and a relaxed, laid-back coastal vibe.

It is a place where you can spend your mornings kayaking on a 125-acre custom lake in Naples Reserve, your afternoons playing 18 holes of championship golf at Lely Resort, and your evenings catching a waterfront sunset just minutes away on Marco Island.

 

Navigating South Naples by Zip Code

To target your home search accurately, South Naples is split into three highly distinct corridors. You can view all live, active listings here or search by zip code below:

  • 34113 (The Lely & Country Club Corridor): Home to the legendary Lely Resort, Eagle Creek, and beautifully manicured, established country club neighborhoods. This zip code is highly central to both downtown Fifth Avenue and the beaches.
  • 34114 (The Resort & New Construction Corridor): The sprawling powerhouse of South Naples. This is where massive, amenity-dense communities like Naples Reserve, Fiddler’s Creek, Winding Cypress, and VeronaWalk sit. It runs all the way south to the gateway of Marco Island.
