Friends and neighbors,
If you didn’t catch our last two emails, here’s what you missed in one minute:
Tuesday: A Valentine’s guide for Naples—romantic date ideas, the Everglades Seafood Festival rundown, and this week’s poll.
Read it here.
Thursday: Seven easy reasons to get out this weekend—Galentine’s at Mercato, garden cocktails after dark, a bayside art walk on Marco, and an Eagles tribute in Bonita.
Read it here.
Now for the “Naples in season” moment: someone texts a screenshot of flight times and says, “We’re thinking of coming down.” ✈️
You want to be excited (and you are)… but you also know what comes next: extra towels, fridge planning, and your home quietly turning into a guest hub.
Here’s the simplest way to keep it fun without disrupting your whole week:
Give guests their own place nearby.
You still get the beach days and dinners together—then everyone sleeps well, and your routine stays yours.
