About Sapphire Cove

Sapphire Cove is a gated single-family home community in Southeast Naples, located near Collier Boulevard and Rattlesnake Hammock Road. The neighborhood consists of approximately 75 residences, giving it a much smaller and more intimate scale than many of Naples’ larger master-planned communities. Developed primarily around a central lake and landscaped common areas, Sapphire Cove features one- and two-story homes with contemporary Florida and coastal-inspired architecture. Residences were built relatively recently and many include open living spaces, attached garages, screened lanais and private swimming pools.

Despite its smaller size, Sapphire Cove offers a useful collection of shared amenities including a clubhouse, community swimming pool and fitness center. Lakes, sidewalks and landscaped surroundings contribute to the residential setting, while the community’s location provides convenient access to shopping, restaurants, healthcare and major roadways. Downtown Naples, Gulf beaches and destinations throughout East and Southeast Naples are also readily accessible, making Sapphire Cove an option for buyers who want newer single-family living and community amenities without the scale of a much larger development.

What You Need to Know About Living in Sapphire Cove

  • Private Pools Are Property-Specific: Residents have access to the community swimming pool, while many individual homes also feature private pools and screened lanais.

Sapphire Cove Amenities

Sapphire Cove’s amenities are centered around its community clubhouse, swimming pool and fitness center, providing residents with convenient options for recreation and gathering without the extensive amenity structure of a large resort-style development. The outdoor recreational area includes space for relaxing around the pool as well as areas for casual outdoor gathering, while sidewalks and landscaped common areas provide additional opportunities to enjoy the neighborhood outdoors.

The community’s lake and residential surroundings are also an important part of the lifestyle. Many homes feature private swimming pools, screened lanais and outdoor entertaining spaces, while select properties overlook the central lake or landscaped areas. Because Sapphire Cove is relatively small, the amenities remain close to the residences and complement rather than dominate the neighborhood.

Sapphire Cove’s Southeast Naples location provides access to the broader amenities of the area, with Collier Boulevard and Rattlesnake Hammock Road connecting residents to shopping, restaurants, healthcare and everyday services. Downtown Naples, Fifth Avenue South, Gulf beaches and recreational destinations throughout Naples are accessible from the community. For buyers seeking a smaller gated neighborhood with newer single-family homes, a community pool and fitness facilities without a mandatory golf or country club component, Sapphire Cove offers a straightforward combination of residential privacy, recreation and location.
