Casa Botanica: Tropical Haven in the heart of town
Summary: Welcome to Casa Botanica, named for the Botanical Gardens a stone’s throw away, your mango tree-lined, sparkling poolside, sun-dappled and spacious retreat in beautiful Naples. Less than a 10-minute drive from 5th Avenue, 3rd Street South and the Downtown Beaches.
From the hammock under the fruit trees to the sparkling pool to the living room bar, there’s not an inch of our home that doesn’t invite you to let loose and enjoy paradise. Everything’s coming up roses at Casa Botanica.
The Space: Paradise is Better Together
Yes, you’re in the Sunshine State, but that doesn’t mean you can’t also have it made in the shade. Case in point: our sleek and modern living room, where you take a break from the rays by kicking your feet up on a contemporary sofa while enjoying the flat-screen TV or playing a game on the Wii U.
Those with culinary skills can show off in a fully-appointed gourmet kitchen, decked out with granite countertops and every appliance you’ll need for that recipe you’ve always wanted to try. Pluck mangos from the yard for a mouthwatering breakfast or grab produce at one of several surrounding markets – fruits and vegetable are always in season here in paradise!
Guest Access: All the home & yard is accessible to guests.

We had a great weekend getaway and was joined by family....we loved hanging out in the yard with the children running around and playing in the pool...the pool is heated...and the hot tub was lots of fun!!!
Cannot say enough great things about this place! This is our second year in a row renting this home for our vacation and it is just as amazing as the first! The house is immaculate and the pool, backyard space is absolutely perfect; it is a little piece of paradise. The location is perfect with a short car ride to downtown beach & minutes from great restaurants! Michael & Rikke are amazing to work with and truly care about ensuring you have an amazing stay! This is by far our favorite house we’ve stayed at in the area & will definitely be renting again!
We had a great time. The house is spacious, beds were comfortable, the pool was well maintained. We had bikes and beach chairs/towels! 13 minutes drive to Naples Pier. Very nice place to stay with friends or family!
We stayed here with friends for a wedding at the Botanical Gardens. The proximity to the venue was perfect.
We were also close enough to rideshare easily to wonderful restaurants in 5th Avenue and 3rd Street South, even closer and walkable was the Food Truck Park and the wine bar Rebeccas.
After the wedding, we basically didn't leave the house because it affords so many fun things to do and is a perfect hangout location. I can't think of anything we needed that we didn't have. We made good use of the bbq, and we had an amazing feast next to the pool our last night there. The landscaping is lush, and hot tub great to catch sunset with some cocktails. Visiting a house like this makes you love renting a home rather than staying at a hotel. Thanks to Michael and Rikke for a truly memorable weekend stay!
The home was BEAUTIFULLY furnished, beds were so comfortable and great Communication with the host.
House was located in a lovely area with great food truck area and restaurants near by. And only 3 miles from the beach! We had 9 people in our party and were all
Comfortable in the large spaces! We cannot WAIT to come back!
A Tropical Paradise in Naples' Bayshore Arts District!
Our stay at Casa Botanica in Naples was just what our family needed. Nestled in the vibrant Bayshore Arts District and within walking distance of the breathtaking Botanical Gardens, this place truly captured the essence of a tropical paradise.
The moment we stepped inside, we were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The interior was tastefully decorated perfectly complementing the surrounding landscaped garden. The accommodations were spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
We discovered several outstanding restaurants located just a short distance from the home. Our favorites included Taco San Julian, Celebration Park and the MED.
One of the unexpected joys of our stay was the mango tree in the yard. Every morning, we would venture out and pluck ripe, juicy mangoes for our breakfast. The experience of enjoying freshly picked mangoes under the warm Florida sun was a delightful treat that added an extra touch of magic to our mornings.
We highly recommend Casa Botanica and Staysplendid and can't wait to return in the near future.
A Dreamy Getaway with an Abundance of Amenities in Naples
I recently had the pleasure of staying at the marvelous Casa Botanica in Naples—a beautiful 4-bedroom house that provided the perfect setting for an unforgettable vacation. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the thoughtful amenities, proximity to local attractions, and the overall comfort and charm of the property. I cannot recommend this rental highly enough!
One of the standout features of this home was the wealth of amenities provided. The coffee bar was a delightful touch, allowing us to start each day with a freshly brewed cup of coffee or tea. It truly made us feel like we were staying at a high-end resort. Additionally, the selection of toys and games in the house was a hit with both children and adults alike. We enjoyed many evenings bonding over board games and creating lasting memories.
The home's owner was incredibly accommodating and responsive throughout our stay. They promptly addressed any inquiries or concerns we had, ensuring that our experience was seamless from start to finish.
Upon arrival we could not even recognize the property. The images posted do not look like the house, or possibly were taken 10 years ago. Bushes and landscaping are extremely overgrown. We had to remove multiple palm branches that had fallen to park in the driveway. Gate no longer closes to secure the property if you have dogs you want to allow to run free in the back yard, the property is not secure with fencing. All 3 propane tanks on property were empty. When we used the little gas that was left the grill caught on fire it was so dirty from previous use. We tried using the oven it would not work. Owner did respond promptly with instructions on how to reset breaker in the garage. This is not a 5 bedroom house as listed, there are 4 rooms. Hot tub spa jets do not work. Small ants living in kitchen area and multiple palmetto bugs were seen in the bathrooms and kitchen area. We made due and had a great time, location is wonderful with lots of great places to walk near by. Garage was stocked with lots of beach equipment and ping pong table. Overall for the price we were disappointed in the condition / upkeep of the property. We were allowed to check in 2 hours early which was nice, I appreciate that. Images of this listing really need to be updated as well as bedroom count.
Really enjoyed the home. Kids and entire family loved the pool. The property is nicely maintained. It was comfortable for six adults and two kids. You can walk from the home to the Naples Pickleball Center, which is an amazing facility. It is easy to pick a game up there - for all skill levels.
I came from Michigan to Naples for business. I was alone, so probably too much house as I didn’t use several of the bedrooms or baths. That said, this place was perfect. Very private which was great for working remotely. The internet was great and I worked via laptop while standing in the pool. I attempted to get in the hot tub the first night and it was way too cold. Easy fix is to know that going in so you turn it up right away. Great location and the the weather couldn’t have been more perfect
This is a great place. Everything is exactly as described and shown in the pictures. No disappointments. The house was spotless and equipped - even a choice of 3 coffee makers - and a beautifully landscaped yard. The pool was warm and crystal clear. The beds, indoor and outdoor furniture - everything was comfortable. Beach and pool towels, beach chairs, a ping pong table - everything was provided for a fun time for the eight of us and a dog! We never had to contact our Host because everything was great each day. Short drive to downtown restaurants and shops & several casual dining options are nearby without even going through a traffic light (Taqueria San Julian, Celebration Park, etc.).
This was our third time staying at this home, and we will definitely be back! The house is beautiful and has everything you may need, the outside area is stunning, the home is clean with a great layout and has everything you would need. It’s also very close to the beach, shopping restaurants! We can’t wait to go back!
We really enjoyed our stay last week. Property was perfectly located for all of our needs. Close to restaurants and quick 10 minute drive downtown and beach. Very clean and accurately described.
My husband and I loved this home. The home was spotless. The pool and lanai area were clean and had enough room for us and our 3 labs. The yard was beautifully landscaped with enough room for us to have all 3 dogs out at one time. The home was in a great location. Lots of restaurants nearby, and a 10 minute drive to 3rd ave. We would absolutely stay her again.
Beautiful, nicely decorated, clean house in a great location
Beautiful, nicely decorated, clean house in a great location. Several casual dining options are nearby without even going through a traffic light (Taqueria San Julian, Celebration Park, etc.). The pool & spa were delightful, and we all enjoyed the cornhole boards and ping pong table. The house was well organized for visitors and well stocked with coffee (Keurig/Nespresso/Regualr Filter), kitchen accessories, etc. Michael was very responsive when I had trouble locating something (that was right under my nose). We hope the home is available next time we visit Naples!
The house was awesome! Great location and plenty of stuff to do with the kids. The house is a great option for families as it has plenty of space and activities.
Pros: enclosed pool & hot tub, ping pong, cornhole, bikes, everything for beach was on site like towels chairs and even sunscreen. Home well stocked with laundry pods, dishwasher detergent, paper goods., etc. Newer washer dryer, well landscaped. Celebration food truck park, Botanical Gardens and Naples Best Popcorn / ice cream & treats are very close. CVS Publix and ABC store within 2 miles.
Cons: all showers drain very slowly, oven didn’t work until breaker was reset, older home that needs some TLC / general maintenance. Dark interior, minimal lighting and small windows. Beach, restaurant’s and shopping requires 15-20min drive and parking in Naples is challenging.
Bottom line: Glad we stayed there. Had a good time but for the cost I would look for something newer and closer to the beach / dining and shopping.
Great house, great location. Everything you could possibly need or think of the host already had figured out. The kids had a blast and the house had plenty of room. Highly recommend for anyone considering a trip to Naples!
We really enjoyed our stay here. There was plenty of room to accommodate a group of 10. The pool/backyard area are great for relaxing, and the location of the house is within minutes of some of Naples best attractions. Don’t miss the Celebration Food Truck Park up the road with great selection of food from around the world and open bar on the water. We also tried Ankrolab Brewing Company and sat outside so we could enjoy local brews with street tacos from Taqueria St Julian next door…the best !! I would absolutely recommend this home for a larger family or group vacationing in Naples and plan to return.
