Walk to Vanderbilt Beach in 2 Minutes — Waterfront Living Across from Future Ritz-Carlton Residences

Welcome to Barefoot Pelican, a highly sought-after waterfront community in the heart of Vanderbilt Beach, where location, lifestyle, and recent upgrades come together seamlessly. This beautifully updated residence offers tranquil water views over Pelican Bay, abundant natural light, and a private lanai—perfect for morning coffee or sunset relaxation.

Positioned just a 2-minute walk to the sugar-white sands of Vanderbilt Beach, this exceptional property is also steps from The Ritz-Carlton Naples and directly across from the upcoming ultra-luxury Ritz-Carlton Residences, placing you at the center of one of Naples’ most prestigious and rapidly appreciating enclaves.

Inside, the residence features valuable recent upgrades, including a new water heater, updated plumbing, new kitchen cabinets and countertops, and a newer A/C system (approximately 2 years old)—providing both comfort and peace of mind.

What truly sets this offering apart is the completely remodeled exterior and extensive building-wide improvements—a rare advantage in today’s market. The community has undergone a comprehensive transformation, including a new seawall and marina, new roof, new pool and spa, new mailboxes, upgraded elevators, new fire alarm system, fresh exterior painting, and new front doors and railings, reflecting exceptional financial stewardship and pride of ownership.

Residents enjoy a resort-style waterfront lifestyle with direct water access for kayaking and paddleboarding, while Mercato’s renowned dining, shopping, and entertainment are just a short stroll away.

Perfect as a full-time residence, seasonal retreat, or investment opportunity, this condo offers a compelling combination of prime walkable location, water views, Ritz-Carlton proximity, and extensive upgrades—both within the unit and throughout the community.

With all major renovations already completed and a new luxury development rising directly across the street, opportunities like this in Vanderbilt Beach are becoming increasingly limited—schedule your private showing today.
