The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón

The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón has welcomed guests for more than two decades and took its present name on December 1, 2022. It sits about three miles inland from the Gulf beside Tiburón Golf Club's two Greg Norman courses, 36 Audubon-certified holes. For families, the main draw is The Reservoir, opened in 2021, which its designer describes as the first lazy river and raft slide at any Ritz-Carlton: three waterslides, 600 feet of winding water, a children's splash area and cabanas. Ritz Kids and a junior golf programme keep younger guests occupied, and a hotel shuttle runs to the beach at The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, about 10 minutes away. The hotel is also home to Florida's first Mouratoglou Tennis Center. There are 295 rooms, 38 of them suites. Palmera, Ria for Latin American cooking and the French-inspired Fenrose cover the dining, and 63,000 square feet of meeting space includes Swaying Palm, a new 2,700-square-foot room for celebrations. Massages are for guests aged 18 and over. It is a resort for families who want golf and tennis in the same week as the pool.
