commitment to luxury BRINGS CHANGE TO INN ON FIFTH

There are few places better suited to experience the best of Naples than the luxurious Inn on Fifth and Club Level Suites. Located in the heart of downtown, the iconic hotel features 119 lavishly appointed rooms, including 32 Club Level Suites, in two landmark buildings, just steps from one another across Fifth Avenue South. The hotel’s enviable address puts guests in the middle of a celebrated collection of award-winning shops and restaurants, including the glamorous Avenue5 and Truluck’s Seafood, Steak and Crab House, and the Spa on Fifth, all conveniently located at the Inn. Guests can enjoy an easy stroll or take complimentary transportation to the white sand beaches of the emerald Gulf, just a few short blocks away.

Fueling the success of the Inn on Fifth is owner and entrepreneur Phil McCabe, who remains committed to raising the standard of excellence in Naples through his growing collection of world-class properties. Known for his vision, instincts and boundless energy, McCabe dramatically demonstrates his commitment through continuous improvement projects at the Inn.

“It’s imperative we continue to make upgrades to maintain the new standard of luxury we’ve created on Fifth Avenue,” said McCabe. “We do what’s necessary to provide an exceptional guest experience at what I believe is arguably one of Naples’ best luxury products.”

To his point, the Inn on Fifth recently completed a nearly $2 million project encompassing the hotel’s spa and meeting space. The executive boardroom was expanded and redesigned to match the hotel’s elegant style, and was outfitted with technology upgrades such as recharging outlets at every table, increased bandwidth for the complimentary Wi-Fi and interactive large screen TVs.

Other enhancements included a redesign of the hotel’s pool deck, with new landscaping and accents to heighten the tropical vibe of the colorful rooftop retreat. Guests know it is ideal for sunning, swimming and soothing relaxation, but the 3,600-square-foot pool deck also provides a beautiful setting for receptions, retreats and other evening functions under the stars.

The recent renovation project also included an extensive remodel of the award-winning Spa on Fifth, located on the hotel’s third floor. The full-service spa now has all-new interiors and contemporary design elements matching the sophisticated look of the hotel. The spa’s treatment menu also received an upgrade with several new luxurious options, including the Good As Gold
Facial, a 60-minute anti-aging treatment that includes a collagen mask infused with pure 24 karat gold.

The finishing touches on the spa, meeting space and pool deck in place, McCabe turned his attention to Avenue5, the glamorous $3 million, 7,000-square-foot restaurant adjacent to the Inn on Fifth. With seating for 240 guests, the restaurant features a high energy ambiance and quickly became known as a place to “see and been seen” on Fifth Avenue. In October 2015, Chef David Nelson took over as Executive Chef at Avenue5, bringing with him more than 20 years of experience in the kitchens of notable luxury hotels and restaurants. Chef David emphasizes sound cooking fundamentals and strives for technical perfection, giving simple, recognizable flavors an innovative twist to create a new menu that is as dazzling as the restaurant itself. “I’ve developed a new menu with fun, interesting dishes that match the style and ambience of what I believe is Fifth Avenue’s most beautiful restaurant,” said Nelson.

The recent renovations at the Inn on Fifth and changes at Avenue5 bring them in perfect alignment with the hotel’s ultra-luxurious Club Level Suites, which were part of a massive $22 million expansion project started in 2012. Located in a striking, new three-story building across from the original Inn on Fifth, the suites range from 550 to 1,160 square feet and feature fashionable rooms with contemporary décor. Guests enjoy extravagant amenities such as a 24-hour concierge, separate check-in, private rooftop hot tub and sunbathing area.

Club Level guests also receive continental breakfast, snacks throughout the day and evening cocktails and appetizers including signature hors d’oeuvres and access to champagne anytime, day or night. Two spacious Presidential Suites, each with two bedrooms, two baths, oversized balconies and more than 1,100 square feet of space, provide the ultimate in luxury for extended stays and families.
