MOORINGS – NAPLES, FL
WELCOME
The Moorings – Central Location, Coastal Serenity & an Exclusive Golf Club Community
The Moorings sits just south of Park Shore and north of Olde Naples — one of the most desirable and centrally located residential areas in the city. The community is divided by Moorings Bay, specifically Doctors Bay, and offers a refined blend of luxury condominiums, elegant single‑family homes, and exclusive waterfront living.
On the peninsula, residents find 82 luxury condominium buildings, accessible via two bridges. Many of these buildings rise gracefully above the bay, serving as architectural landmarks with beautifully maintained grounds, premium amenities, and direct water access.
Single‑family homes are less common in The Moorings — which makes them especially coveted. Many of these residences sit directly on the bay, feature private boat docks, and offer quick access to the Gulf of Mexico. For boaters seeking a peaceful yet central Naples location, The Moorings is an exceptional retreat.
⛳ Moorings Golf & Country Club – Private Golf in the Heart of the Neighborhood
A defining feature of the community is the Moorings Golf & Country Club, established in 1963. This private, member‑owned club offers:
- An 18‑hole golf course (Par 63)
- Beautifully maintained fairways in a quiet, green setting
- An elegant clubhouse
- An excellent restaurant
- A full calendar of social events and a warm, welcoming club atmosphere
The club is ideal for golfers who appreciate exclusivity without crowds — and who enjoy having a private course just moments from home.
🌿 History & Evolving Luxury
The Moorings has a rich development history. The land was originally purchased in 1957 for $1.5 million by a development group led by Milton Link. What began as 300 acres grew steadily over the decades into one of Naples’ most established communities.
By 1958, the first lots were sold for what were then considered “princely” $4,500. By 2004, The Moorings had expanded to more than 1,300 acres with approximately 1,938 homes and residences — and today, the community includes around 4,000 properties, offering a wide range of living options.

Moorings History
Moorings was originally purchased in 1957 for $1.5 million. The community has grown exponentially to reach its current 1,300-acre size – but long before it was ever developed, the area was a swampy marshland originally surveyed by Walter Halderman and General John S. Williams. In the 1880s, the pair built homes on the beach, hired a firm from Fort Myers to help them build a pier, and laid out plans to turn the property into a thriving tourist destination.
