About Monterey
Monterey, also known as the Villages of Monterey, is a gated residential community in North Naples, located off Orange Blossom Drive east of Goodlette-Frank Road. The community offers a combination of single-family homes and attached residences surrounded by lakes, mature tropical landscaping and attractive residential streets. Homes vary considerably in size, design and level of renovation, with many properties offering lake views, private pools, screened outdoor living areas and attached garages. The established landscaping and variety among the residences give
Monterey a distinctly different character from Naples’ newer master-planned developments.

Residents are also convenient to Vanderbilt Beach, Clam Pass Park, Mercato, Waterside Shops, Artis-Naples, healthcare, shopping and dining, making Monterey especially well positioned for buyers who want an established gated community close to many of North Naples’ major destinations.

Monterey Amenities
The Monterey clubhouse serves as the recreational and social center of the community, providing residents with a substantial collection of facilities for both active and social pursuits. The clubhouse includes a fitness center, billiards, library and spaces for meetings, entertainment, parties and community gatherings. These indoor facilities support an active calendar of resident activities while also providing convenient places to gather outside the individual residences.
Swimming is centered around the community’s large heated pool and spa, with surrounding deck areas providing space for relaxing and socializing. The pool area complements the indoor clubhouse facilities and creates a central recreational destination within the neighborhood rather than requiring residents to rely entirely on private pools at their individual homes.
Court sports are another important component of the Monterey lifestyle. Residents have access to lighted tennis and pickleball facilities along with basketball, providing options for both recreational and organized play. A children’s playground adds another outdoor recreation option, while sidewalks and landscaped common areas provide opportunities for walking throughout the neighborhood.
The community’s lakes, mature landscaping and established streetscapes further contribute to the residential environment, while many individual homes extend the recreational lifestyle with private swimming pools and screened lanais. Combined with Monterey’s central North Naples location, residents can enjoy substantial amenities within the gates while remaining close to Vanderbilt Beach, Clam Pass Park, Mercato, Waterside Shops, Artis-Naples and other Naples attractions.
