JW Marriott has a broad on-site dining program spanning casual to fine dining.

  • 12 restaurants and bars including Ario (steakhouse), Quinn's on the Beach (beachfront seafood), Tesoro (21+ Italian/Mediterranean) and 10K Alley (gastropub/games)
  • Beachfront and poolside bars (Kane Tiki, Lana) plus cafés and quick-market options

Choose JW Marriott for a full spa program, fitness schedule and resort-based evening options.

Bayfront Inn Fifth Avenue – Wellness & nightlife

Bayfront Inn focuses less on a stand-alone spa and more on proximity to Naples nightlife and dining on Fifth Avenue.

  • Fitness facilities listed and on-site activities include bicycle rentals and concierge for booking local excursions
  • No stand-alone spa is published for the property
  • Short walk to Fifth Avenue nightlife, bars and restaurants in downtown Naples
