The Ritz-Carlton Naples, Tiburón Unveils Multi-Million-Dollar Redesign

The redesign marks a strategic shift for the resort, which serves as the inland counterpart to its nearby beachfront sister property. By incorporating elements inspired by Southwest Florida’s native mangroves and Audubon-certified grounds, the architects have replaced formal hotel desks with curved settees and residential-style built-ins. The transformation culminates in the revamped Presidential Suite, a sanctuary featuring deep greens and charcoal tones, complemented by preserved marble flooring and bespoke artisan textiles.

Beyond the guestrooms, the property has expanded its social footprint with the introduction of Palmera, a high-energy bar and restaurant led by Executive Chef Jared Young. The menu emphasizes zero-waste sustainability, utilizing local Gulf Coast harvests and regional citrus. Alongside the new dining options—which include the Parisian-inspired Fenrose and Café Fenrose—the resort has added Swaying Palm, a 2,700-square-foot venue designed for large-scale gatherings and celebrations. These updates reinforce the resort’s status as a hub for active leisure, maintaining its focus on the Greg Norman-designed golf courses and the Mouratoglou Tennis Center.
