About Mangrove Bay
Mangrove Bay is an intimate waterfront community of just 53 single-family residences along the Gordon River in Downtown Naples. Designed around an Old Florida coastal aesthetic, the neighborhood combines cottage-inspired architecture, tropical landscaping and private outdoor living with an unusually convenient boating lifestyle. Every residence includes a private covered or uncovered boat slip, allowing homeowners to keep their boat within the community and enjoy direct access from the Gordon River to Naples Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Private pools and outdoor entertaining areas further extend the waterfront lifestyle at home.
What makes Mangrove Bay particularly distinctive is the combination of private boating, extensive residential services and proximity to Downtown Naples. The association provides exterior landscaping, pool and dock maintenance, while an on-site concierge adds another level of convenience for homeowners. Residents are also adjacent to Baker Park and the Gordon River Greenway and convenient to Fifth Avenue South, Naples beaches, restaurants, shopping and cultural attractions. For buyers who want single-family waterfront living with boating access and a lower-maintenance ownership experience close to downtown, Mangrove Bay occupies a particularly unique niche in Naples.
