About Grande Excelsior

Grande Excelsior is a luxury high-rise condominium in the Grande Preserve, the enclave of four towers within The Dunes of Naples, a gated resort-style community in North Naples. Completed in 2004, the building holds 90 residences, nearly all with generous three-bedroom floor plans. Listings note a new roof installed in 2025 and fresh exterior paint.

The tower overlooks Turkey Bay, the mangroves and the Gulf to the southwest, and corner residences see up the coast on clear days. The Dunes sits off Vanderbilt Drive at Bluebill Avenue, a short walk from Vanderbilt Beach and close to Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Park, Mercato and Waterside Shops.
