The Florida city of Naples—named by 19th-century promoters who described its bay as "surpassing the bay in Naples, Italy"—sits on the Gulf of Mexico, where average high temperatures in December are more than 75 degrees. Not surprisingly, the city is a winter haven for New Yorkers and Chicagoans looking to escape the cold.This seven-bedroom, 16,000-square-foot home, located in Naples’ exclusive Port Royal neighborhood, includes a separate guest cottage, a six-car garage, 13 bathrooms, a Lutron lighting system, a soundproof home theater, and a 1,000-bottle wine cellar. The mosaic-tiled freshwater pool, lanai, and two outdoor kitchens provide al fresco entertainment spaces, while the property’s private dock grants access to the Gulf’s turquoise waters.
