New residences on the beach, on the bay and behind a private dock.
Naples is in the middle of its most significant wave of new luxury waterfront development in decades. Branded towers and boutique buildings are rising on the Gulf, new marina residences are opening onto the bays, and custom estates are replacing older homes on the city’s best beachfront and Gulf-access lots. This page brings the waterfront side of that market together; each development has its own page with floor plans, amenities and the latest progress.

Naples Waterfront New Construction - Active Listings
Request a Curated Selection of New Waterfront Residences
Some of the best new residences are reserved before they reach the public, and developers release inventory in phases. Tell us whether you want the beach, a dock or a view, your timing and the size you need, and we will assemble a private selection across the new developments and custom homes, including residences not yet listed. Complimentary and without obligation. Call (239) 438-1102.
New Custom Homes on the Water
Much of Naples’ new waterfront construction is not in towers but on individual lots, where older homes are replaced with new estates. On the Gulf, that means Gordon Drive in Port Royal and Olde Naples and Gulf Shore Boulevard in Coquina Sands and The Moorings; on Gulf-access canals and bays, Port Royal, Aqualane Shores, Royal Harbor and The Moorings. Some are sold complete, others under construction or as design-build packages with a builder. Our beachfront homes and waterfront homes with Gulf access pages cover what to look for on each type of lot.
Buying New Construction With Independent Representation
The developer’s sales gallery represents the developer. When you consider a new waterfront residence, independent representation matters most in the places a sales team will not volunteer: which stack and floor will hold its view and value, how the deposit schedule and escrow are structured, what the contract allows the developer to change, and what the residence is likely to be worth at delivery compared with resale next door. Developers compensate buyer representation, so our involvement costs you nothing. For custom builds, we bring the same scrutiny to the lot, the builder’s contract and the permitting timeline.
Six landmark developments are redefining luxury real estate in Naples. From a Four Seasons beachfront resort to private marina communities, explore the most exclusive new addresses in Southwest Florida.
New branded and boutique residences are concentrated along Gulf Shore Boulevard North, at Vanderbilt Beach, in Pelican Bay and at Wiggins Pass, with new marina residences near Naples Bay. New custom homes are being built on beachfront and Gulf-access lots in Port Royal, Olde Naples, Aqualane Shores, Royal Harbor, Coquina Sands and The Moorings. No. Developers in the Naples luxury market compensate buyer representation, so independent advice on the contract, deposits, stack selection and delivery terms costs the buyer nothing. The sales gallery represents the developer. Delivery dates can move, finished residences can differ from renderings, and developer contracts favor the developer. Review how deposits are held, what changes the developer may make, and the remedies if delivery is late. Choose the stack and floor with the long-term view in mind, not just the price. New buildings are designed to current Florida Building Code wind standards and flood elevation requirements, which generally makes them more resilient and can improve insurance terms compared with older buildings. Each property still deserves its own review of elevation, construction and coverage. Yes, most often by buying an older home on a valuable beachfront or Gulf-access lot and rebuilding. Beachfront lots require state permits seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line, and all waterfront lots must meet current flood elevation rules, so evaluate the lot and permitting before you buy.New Luxury Developments in Naples
