For a proper night out, BALEEN Naples is the restaurant we point guests toward most often. Set right on the beach at LaPlaya Beach Resort, it’s known for two things: a menu built around Gulf-to-table seafood, and one of the best sunset views of any dining room in Naples. Ask for a table on the terrace, or on the sand itself if it’s available.
The atmosphere strikes a nice balance — polished enough for a special occasion, relaxed enough that you won’t feel out of place in resort casual straight off the beach. Dinner is served daily from 5:30pm, with breakfast, lunch, and weekend brunch also available if you’d rather make it a daytime visit.
Book ahead, especially if you want a sunset table — this is one Naples reservation worth planning around rather than leaving to chance. It’s a short drive from Park Shore Resort, and an easy way to turn one evening of your stay into something memorable.
