Ten residences with private rooftop terraces, three blocks from Fifth Avenue South.
Stella Naples is a boutique building of just ten residences above street-level shops on Ninth Street South, completed in 2024 on the site of the former Sea Shell Motel. Each residence has its own rooftop terrace, and the building pairs a resort-style pool with the everyday convenience of downtown Naples at the door.

Ask About Availability at Stella Naples
With ten residences, resales are infrequent and often private. Tell us the plan and floor you prefer and we will let you know what is available, what has traded and when an owner may be willing to talk.
The Residences
Stella’s ten residences run from about 2,124 to 2,878 square feet under air, in two-bedroom, two-bedroom-plus-den and three-bedroom plans. Interiors carry custom Ruffino cabinetry, wide-plank European white oak floors, Viking, Sub-Zero and Miele appliances, motorized window coverings and indoor and outdoor fireplaces. The signature is the roof: each residence has its own private terrace of up to about 1,100 square feet, many fitted with outdoor kitchens, so evenings are spent above the street rather than at a shared deck. Below, residents share a 42-foot resort-style pool with a sun shelf, a fitness center, a clubhouse and a dog park, with covered, deeded parking and EV charging.

The Location
The building stands at the corner of Ninth Street South and First Avenue South, at the eastern edge of the Olde Naples grid. Fifth Avenue South is about three blocks away, Cambier Park and Third Street South a short ride west, and the Gulf beaches an easy bicycle or golf-cart trip across the neighborhood.
Buying Into a Newer Building
A building completed in 2024 has a short sales history, so each resale sets the benchmark for the next. We review the association budget and reserves, any open warranty items, the leasing and pet rules, how the commercial suites below share costs with the residences, and exactly which parking and storage convey, before an offer rather than after.
How Stella Compares
Stella is one of three new boutique buildings on Ninth Street South. The Cayden offers six residences of a similar size with a shared rooftop pool, and Two Ten West offers twelve much larger residences of 3,500 to 5,100 square feet. A few blocks south, The Huxley, by the same developer, places eight estate-scale residences directly on Fifth Avenue South. Buyers who want a house instead can start with Olde Naples single-family homes.
