Moving to Naples?

Shopping in Naples

I got a message from Ann-Kristin from Norway.  She and her husband are thinking of moving to the Naples, FL area and she inquired about a job application site.  The only regional site I've heard about is www.southwestfloridahelpwanted.com.  I just tried to visit the site to make sure it works, but my employer has all employment sites blocked from my browser, ha!  That's OK, I really like living and working here so no danger I'll be posting MY resume there!  Anyway, I hope that site works.  Another idea is to take a look at our Web site and review...[Read More]

Naples Nightlife

Naples Sunset

 

A question I am always asked about is "How is the nightlife in Naples?". We have quite a few local establishments making a big effort to bring great entertainment to our destination. This weekend I’m going to check out the Rock-n-Roll Dueling Pianos at South Street City Oven & Grill. The show starts at 9pm and there is a $10 cover charge – as they put it, entertainment like this does not come cheap. I called South Street and they described the act as two piano players with a comedic flair who play off each other’s Rock-n-Roll music. Sounds like fun and...[Read More]

Visitors Explore via Segway

To get a unique view of Naples, I highly recommend exploring the Old Naples area via Segway.  There are two companies that offer Segway tours in Naples.  One option is Naples Water and Land Tours which operates out of the Charter Club Resort.  The tour I recently experienced is part of the vast array of activities & services Naples Transportation, Tours and Event Planning (NTTEP) offers.  Our tour guide, Christina, is full of energy & fun.  The bad jokes start with her first sentence and they keep coming throughout the tour.  The tour itself lasts about 1...[Read More]

All Clear in Paradise

Palms in Paradise

I had a call earlier from a travel writer seeking to confirm that Marco Island and the surrounding areas here were in fact untouched by any of the recent tropical storm and hurricane activity - and I'm happy to report that yes, the coast is clear.  Tropical Storm Fay brought us some rain in August but no problems, and we are enjoying beatiful weather right now.  As we get closer to October our temperatures will begin to drop a bit.  October and November are two of the favorite months for locals, since the temperature and humidity drops a bit and...[Read More]
