What It’s Like to Stay Club Level at the Inn on Fifth in Naples
Recently named one of Travel + Leisure’s Top 500 Hotels, the Inn on Fifth holds a reputation that speaks for itself. Situated at the heart of Naples’ iconic Fifth Avenue South, this locally owned boutique hotel brings together spacious Club Level suites, high-touch service, and direct access to the city’s best dining, shopping, and coastal experiences.
Here’s how to spend three exceptional days at one of the most sought-after addresses in Naples.
Day One: Check-in and VIP Dinner at Ocean Prime
Your arrival at the Inn on Fifth begins at the private entrance to the Club Level Building , where you’ll be escorted through a smooth, personalized check-in process. Located directly across from the main hotel building, the Club Level features Naples’ most spacious suites, a rooftop deck with an oversized hot tub, and access to an intimate lounge serving light fare and premium drinks throughout the day.
After you settle in, enjoy complimentary hors d’oeuvres in the lounge from 5:00 to 7:30 pm. Top-shelf spirits, wine, beer, and champagne are also available from 5:00 to 9:00 pm, along with desserts to close the evening. Whether you choose to relax on the rooftop or walk along 5th Avenue South, your first night is a chance to get oriented without a rush.
If you're in the mood for a more formal dinner, let the concierge arrange a reservation at Ocean Prime. Club Level guests who book through the hotel receive a VIP experience, including a complimentary champagne toast and signature appetizer. The restaurant’s menu features seafood, steaks, handcrafted cocktails, and a famous ten-layer carrot cake topped with pineapple syrup.
Day Two: 5th Avenue South and Beach Time
Start your day with breakfast in the Club Level Lounge. The spread includes mimosas, pastries, smoothies, eggs, bacon, sausage, cereals, and more. You can enjoy your meal inside or take it to the rooftop to watch the morning activity along 5th Avenue.
Spend your late morning browsing the boutiques and galleries lining 5th Avenue South. Known for its charm and walkability, this district is filled with curated fashion, local art, and sidewalk cafes. If you need recommendations, the Club Level concierge can help direct you to standout shops or assist with reservations at popular restaurants in the area.
For lunch, head back to the hotel’s courtyard to try Blu Bar & Grill. The daytime menu includes wraps, salads, and seafood appetizers, along with a selection of cocktails and wines. The setting near the pool gives you the option to stay and relax, or head up to the rooftop to soak in the hot tub or unwind in the shade of an umbrella.
Ready to head to the beach? Conveniently, Naples Beach is only six short blocks from Inn on Fifth. You can either walk there in about 10 minutes or ask the valet to give you a lift in the golf cart. They’ll also provide everything you need for your visit—beach chairs, an umbrella, and sunscreen. Whenever you’re ready to head back, just call the front desk and they’ll pick you up.
In the evening, consider dining at Truluck’s, one of Naples’ most celebrated seafood restaurants. With live entertainment, exceptional wine selections, and fresh Florida Stone Crab delivered daily when in season, Truluck’s is highly recommended by both locals and visitors alike. As always, reservations through the concierge are recommended. Enjoy live piano entertainment here Thursday through Sunday evenings.
Day Three: Spa Time and A Quiet Send-Off
Before checking out, take time for one more breakfast at the Club Level lounge. If your schedule allows, you can also fit in a visit to the Spa on Fifth . Located at the main building, this intimate spa offers a range of treatments including massages, facials, wraps, and scrubs. Saunas, steam rooms, and a relaxation lounge are all available to guests before or after their scheduled service. The spa is open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
If you’d rather keep exploring, don’t miss the chance to see another famous shopping and dining district: Third Street South. For visitors who happen to be here on a Saturday morning, you can even check out the weekly Farmers Market , which occurs year-round. Or, if you’re looking for a unique place to grab lunch, check out Jane’s Garden Cafe, Sea Salt, or Campiello.
Whether you’re here for the weekend or an extended stay, the Inn on Fifth provides an experience that brings together comfort, service, and access in one of Naples’ most desirable neighborhoods. For those who appreciate the finest of everything, ONLY Paradise will do.
