Pet-Friendly Hotels: Naples, FL

AC Hotel Fifth Avenue, Residence Inn, Naples Bay Resort and the Ritz - with real weight limits and the fee caps that matter on long stays.

Updated September 7, 2026 3 min read By

Naples has a broad range of pet-friendly hotels, from luxury resorts to extended-stay properties and budget hotels.

The biggest planning issue is not whether the hotel accepts pets.

It is that City of Naples beaches do not allow ordinary pets.

That means the smartest hotel choice depends on:

  • Greenway access
  • Dog-park access
  • Walkability
  • Pet fee
  • Weight limit
  • Number of pets
  • Whether cats are allowed
  • Whether the pet can stay alone

Naples Bay Resort

Paradise Coast currently highlights Naples Bay Resort as a pet-friendly property.

The marina setting is useful because visitors can enjoy:

  • Naples Bay
  • Downtown access
  • Fifth Avenue South
  • Tin City

The regional tourism office also notes that visitors can rent a boat from the marina and reach Keewaydin Island, which currently allows leashed dogs.

Best For

  • Waterfront stay
  • Downtown Naples
  • Boaters
  • Travelers who want something other than a traditional beach resort

AC Hotel Naples 5th Avenue

AC Hotel Naples 5th Avenue is a current pet-friendly downtown option.

Marriott currently lists:

  • Up to 2 pets per room
  • Maximum pet weight: 75 pounds
  • $50 nonrefundable pet fee per night
  • Maximum pet fee of $150 per stay

The hotel is about 0.4 mile from central Naples destinations.

Best For

Travelers who want:

  • Fifth Avenue South
  • Downtown dining
  • Walkable city stay

Current policy: marriott.com

Residence Inn Naples

Residence Inn Naples currently allows:

  • Up to 2 pets
  • Maximum weight: 50 pounds
  • $150 nonrefundable pet fee per stay

The extended-stay format also gives guests:

  • Kitchen
  • Longer-stay layout
  • More residential feel

Best For

  • Longer stays
  • Families
  • Travelers with substantial pet gear

Current policy: marriott.com

Red Roof PLUS+ & Suites Naples Downtown

Paradise Coast currently lists Red Roof PLUS+ & Suites Naples Downtown as pet-friendly.

The property is near:

  • Fifth Avenue South
  • Naples Municipal Airport
  • Downtown Naples
  • Tin City

It also offers weekly, monthly and seasonal rates.

Best For

Budget-conscious travelers and longer stays.

Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón

Paradise Coast currently includes The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón among Naples-area pet-friendly hotels.

This is a stronger fit for travelers focused on:

  • Luxury
  • Golf
  • Resort amenities
  • North Naples

rather than beachfront dog access.

Naples Grande Beach Resort

Naples Grande is another current pet-friendly property highlighted by the regional tourism office.

Remember:

A pet-friendly beach resort does not mean the adjacent beach allows ordinary dogs.

Edgewater Beach Hotel

Edgewater Beach Hotel is also currently listed among the region’s pet-friendly lodging.

For dog travelers, verify:

  • Pet fee
  • Weight limit
  • Number allowed
  • Unattended-pet policy

before booking.

Compass Hotel by Margaritaville Naples

Paradise Coast currently includes Compass Hotel by Margaritaville Naples among pet-friendly hotel options.

This can be useful for travelers who want a more relaxed resort-style atmosphere without necessarily staying directly downtown.

Downtown vs. North Naples

Downtown Naples

Best for:

  • Fifth Avenue
  • Tin City
  • Restaurants
  • City walking

North Naples

Best for:

  • Larger resorts
  • Golf
  • North Collier Regional Park
  • Veterans Community Park

Pet Fees Matter

Current Naples hotel examples show how much pricing varies.

AC Hotel Naples 5th Avenue

$50 per night, capped at $150 per stay.

Residence Inn Naples

$150 per stay.

For a short stay, these can be similar.

For a longer stay, capped or per-stay pricing can become more attractive.

Ask About Cats

Some Naples hotels may accept dogs and cats.

Others may accept dogs only.

Always verify.

Ask About Weight Limits

Current examples:

  • AC Hotel Naples 5th Avenue: 75-pound maximum
  • Residence Inn Naples: 50-pound maximum

The word pet-friendly tells you very little by itself.

Ask Whether Pets Can Stay Alone

This matters for:

  • Boat tours
  • Museums
  • Beach outings
  • Long dinners

Policies may require:

  • Crate
  • Time limits
  • No unattended pets

In Naples, choose a hotel for the dog’s everyday routine.

The beach is not the dog plan.

The park, greenway and walkable neighborhood are.
