“Here comes the sun,
Here comes the sun,
and I say,
it’s all right . . .”
- George Harrison (1969), from Abbey Road, by The Beatles
Does the thought of beachfront living in subtropical Naples, Florida appeal to you? You can’t get closer to the beach than living in the Gulfside condominium, where residents are literally steps away from the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Located in glamorous Park Shore, the Gulfside was built in 1974 by the Lutgert Companies.
This 15 story residential tower embodies “casual elegance.” Walking through the Gulfside, you imagine that if one had a care in the world upon arrival, that in due time, all worries of the mind would melt away. The Gulfside utterly lacks pretense, despite its presence in one of the world’s best neighborhoods. It is as if this building recognizes that the real stars here involve nothing manmade, but rather include the blue-green waters, the soft, white, powdery sand, and the swaying coconut palms that sway in the breeze. Is anything truly more elegant than free time spent watching the waves roll in? Is anything actually more luxurious than watching a burnt orange sunset over the ocean from your own private balcony?
Intimate, friendly, relaxed – the Gulfside provides a true ‘beach home’ effect, from each of its floors. The common areas of the building, including the lobby and hallways, have been renovated and remodeled in recent years, to update the feel of this special place. What is timeless and never needs updating are the views – “forever views” (or, at least to Sanibel Island).
The Gulfside offers a fantastic opportunity to live in Park Shore, right on the beach, within easy walking distance to the upscale shops, galleries and restaurants of the Venetian Village waterfront complex – at price points under $1,000,000. Prices currently range from approximately $870,000 to $1,500,000 or more. The fantastic features and amenities at Gulfside include, among others:
-
2 to 3 bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms

Has it been for you – as George Harrison sang in “Here Comes the Sun” – a “long cold lonely winter?” Spend your days at ease in the sun living at Gulfside. Let your mind drift, catching rays at poolside. Having trouble sleeping? Close your eyes, let the rhythmic echoes of the waves – the sigh of the sand – sing you to sleep.
