A beautiful 3 star beach property

The positives: This hotel has a lot of charm. The location is great- right on the beach. We stayed in the beach house and the rooms were comfortable and clean. The pools and landscaping are beautiful. The bartenders and waiter/waitress staff are awesome. The onsite restaurant, Baleen, is delicious and probably has the best beachside dining available in Naples. The tiki bar and beachside dining options are good, expensive - but to be expected. ( $20 drinks / $25 sandwiches)
The negatives: If you are comparing this place to other 5 star resort experiences, you will be disappointed. Expect Hampton Inn in terms of guest room and in room amenities. Internet is not included, Coffee machine is a Keurig, no bedside outlets. They do not have a good control over their mini bar system- when we arrived snacks were open, wine/items appeared to be missing and even though I called to report at check in- I was charged for it upon checking out. It isn’t really a kid friendly place ( maybe by design). They don’t have any planned kid activities or included beach or pool items like other 5 stars so adjust expectations and plan accordingly.
Tips: Stop at Publix or Target on your way in to scoop up some basics or order Instacart delivery. They don’t even give you waters in the room so unless you’d like to pay $9 for a bottle of water to make your morning coffee, bring your own. Take a photo of your minibar snack tray and fridge upon arrival. Make restaurant reservations, places book up for dinner. Bring your own blow dryer.

My wife and I stayed at LaPlaya Beach & Golf Resort last weekend for a wedding, and we were thoroughly impressed from start to finish. The entire experience was exceptional — from the beautifully maintained rooms to the breathtaking beach access and friendly staff throughout the property.
A special shoutout to Lium from the valet team, who truly went above and beyond. He helped us with our bags, made getting the car effortless every time, and was just an all-around standout in terms of professionalism and warmth. He made a great stay even better.
Breakfast was delicious each morning, and the setting made every meal feel like a treat. The resort struck the perfect balance between upscale and relaxed, making it the ideal spot for both the wedding festivities and a peaceful weekend escape.
We’ll absolutely be returning and highly recommend LaPlaya to anyone visiting the area.

Stayed for a week for daughter’s wedding and couldn’t have had a nicer time. All the staff was wonderful, especially Palak at the front desk and Liam at the bell desk.
The food was outstanding, the rooms were spacious and clean and the view and beach attendants were terrific.
The wedding welcome party, reception and farewell brunch were well organized, the food was delicious and the staff couldn’t be nicer.
I’d recommend Noble House properties, and especially La Playa to anyone.
