Naples Park, FL

162 Apartments for Rent

Don't let all the new construction fool you -- Naples Park was founded way back in the 1950s.

Spanning just 1.2 square miles, Naples Park, Florida, is definitely on the small side. However, with all it has to offer, its close to 6,000 residents probably don't even notice. Naples Park residents enjoy ample sunshine all year round. When much of the country is griping about snow, Naples Park residents are walking around in average temperatures close to 70 degrees. Summer temperatures can reach well into the 90s, but who cares? Vanderbilt Beach and air conditioning will keep you cool. The community is primarily made up of single-family homes and duplex-style digs, but don't worry -- apartment dwellers have some options here, too.

Moving to Naples Park

Timing Your Move

There's really no time of year that's bad for a move to Naples Park. If you want to avoid dripping sweat all over your couch, though, load up the truck during the winter. The area gets the most rain in June, but you can get drenched at any time of year, so you probably shouldn't plan around that. For the most part, you'll have warmer temperatures whenever you choose to move, and shorts and tank tops make perfect moving-day attire. Expect jealousy from your Northern friends.

Charming the Landlord

Landlords here are pretty typical. They want to know you can pay the rent on time and take care of the property. Skip the empty flattery when you're ready to rent an apartment in Naples Park. Instead, show up with good credit (or a co-signer), proof of income, and references prepared to call you the best thing since microwave popcorn. If you're looking for pet-friendly apartments, expect to pay a little extra for your deposit as well.

Neighborhoods in Naples Park

Don't expect going from one neighborhood to the next to feel like much of a journey here. Naples Park is small enough that it feels like a single neighborhood. The funny thing is that its smaller size doesn't translate into maximum pedestrian appeal. The community has a WalkScore of 23, so you'll pretty much need a car to get from point A to point B. In terms of housing for rent, expect plenty of homes and not so many city apartments. Here's one part of town that is well defined because of its gates:

Remington Reserve: If condos are your thing, you'll want to take a look at Remington Reserve. The gated community is full of two- and three-bedroom Mediterranean-style condo homes. The community has a pool and fitness center, and you'll live just a hair away from Naples Beach. It's kind of pricey, though, so do expect to pay up for the privilege. Most homes were built from 2005 to 2008.

Living in Naples Park

There are three things you need to enjoy life in Naples Park: sunscreen, a bike, and a tennis racket. Residents here spend lots of time at Vanderbilt and Naples beaches as well as in area parks. Biking is a common pastime, as is playing doubles at one of the community's tennis courts. After you've worked up a sweat, let a beer cool you off at the Kazbar Cafe and Hookah Lounge. Then go catch a flick at the Silverspot Theatre.
