“For instance, on the planet earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much – the wheel, New York, wars and so on – while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man – for precisely the same reasons.”
- Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy-There is simply no place in Naples-or possibly anywhere else – like the magnificent Admiralty Point luxury high rise development, a 10 acre tropical park-like compound. Private. Secluded. Tranquil. Located on a cul de sac at the end of Gulf Shore Boulevard in Naples in the prestigious Moorings neighborhood, the two 9-story towers in Admiralty Point are placed in an unmatched setting. There is no finer location in all of Naples, where Moorings Bay turns and bends to Doctor’s pass and directly out to the Gulf of Mexico. For those in the know, these condominiums are so coveted, they are rarely found
on the MLS under any market conditions. Why would you want to sell, when you can fish on a private pier, with a group of pelicans to keep you company? Or when you can sit on a park bench for reflection, and watch dolphins jumping and playing in the water less than 10 feet away from you? All of this in a luxury setting, securely gated community that offers boat docks for leasing, tennis, 3 pools, 2 spas, a Marina, 2 clubhouses, and a promenade and walking path that gently curves along Doctor’s Pass to the Gulf of Mexico. It is a short walk to the beach for anyone in the complex.

The views in these unique luxury towers provide that “wow” factor. The Buildings themselves are uniquely designed. The 2300 building, also known as Admiralty Point 1, was constructed in 1976, and was built to curve around and fit along the shape of the convergence of Doctor’s Pass and the beach of the Gulf of Mexico, which it fronts. The views of the Gulf and the Pass are breathtaking. What sets this building apart, in addition to the stunning location it literally wraps around, is the true vertical stack construction feature of the building, where there are no hallways between the residences. A series of elevators spaced throughout the building takes owners directly to their home in the sky, and only those whose home is located in that part of the building have access to that particular elevator. This building is therefore very private and secure, and for each of the 99 residences it “lives” like a very low density setting. The 2400 building, known as Admiralty Point 2, was built in 1982, and sits along Moorings Bay just before the turn to Doctor’s Pass. There are only 45 residences in this building. Higher floors can include units with both Bay and Gulf views. The size of the condominiums in the 2300 and 2400 buildings range from 1,650 to 2,445 square feet in living area and more. Listings on the MLS throughout this development are rare, with the 2300 building being extremely rarely offered. Currently, prices range from approximately $1,280,000 to $2,200,000 and up. Only 3 of the 144 units in the complex are currently listed for sale on the MLS.

The magical setting of Admiralty Point will enchant you on a daily basis with a parade of wildlife right at your feet. The rich marine environment along Moorings Bay, through the Pass to the Gulf, is a magnet that attracts dolphins, pelicans, egrets, herons and more. The 10 acres of park are lovingly maintained, and leisurely short walks from the marina and docks along the Bay to the beach at Gulf-front are no doubt a favorite activity for the residents at Admiralty Point. Fish on the private fishing pier off the boat dock, where Moorings Bay meets the Pass. Fish are literally jumping all around. Walk to your dock, and take your boat out directly to the Gulf with no bridges along the extremely short trip it will take to get out on open Gulf waters. Enjoy the beachfront pool, which is literally steps from the white sand beach along the Gulf. Since Admiralty Point is located on a cul de sac, and is separated from the southern lying beaches of Old Naples by Doctor’s Pass, the beach is virtually “private” and spans more than 500 pristine feet. The rocks and jetty across the Pass attract many surf fisherman. If you would like to entertain in an area where nature provides a jaw dropping backdrop, why not use the stainless steel barbeque grills located around the oceanside pool? Or gather for cocktails in one of the two clubhouses. The possibilities for fun and relaxation here are endless.

Do not let the “ages” of these 2 buildings fool you. There have been multiple restorations over the years to the common areas. The entire complex is bright, fresh and well maintained. Many of these condominiums have been elegantly remodeled in the recent past. The layout of the units facilitates the adding of currently desired luxury features and appointments. The floorplans are open, the master bedrooms are relatively spacious and contain substantial closet space, and the open living areas will allow the talent of your interior designer to shine. Many of the remodeled condominiums will be virtually turnkey, and have the “feel” of the newest “product” offered in other parts of Naples which do not share this one of a kind location.

Yet another signature feature of the residences in Admiralty Point are the oversized, tiled and screened in lanais. Whether it is a cup of morning cappuccino where you watch the yachts drift through Doctor’s Pass, or a nightcap with friends watching the orange glow of the sun disappear out over the Gulf, you will want to live out on your lanai.

Admiralty Point -- few lifestyle opportunities like it exist in Naples, and with the latest luxury appointments added to these residences, you can buy an exceptional home that is, relative to its “peer group,” also an exceptional value.
