The Inn at Pelican Bay Earns 10th Consecutive AAA Four Diamond Award

A Decade of Diamond Luxury

Four Diamond Hotel Award

The Inn at Pelican Bay has always believed that true hospitality is about more than just providing a place to stay; it’s about creating moments that linger long after check-out. The Inn is honored to share that our dedication has once again been recognized: for the 10th year in a row, earning us the coveted AAA Four Diamond designation. 


What Makes the AAA Four Diamond Award Special?


The AAA Diamond Program has been guiding travelers for more than 80 years and is one of the most trusted hotel rating systems in North America. Unlike online star ratings, which can be based on personal opinions, the Diamond designation comes from in-depth, unscheduled inspections by trained experts. These inspectors evaluate everything from quality and cleanliness to service and guest experience.


The Four Diamond designation is reserved for hotels that deliver upscale style, refined amenities, and exceptional service, qualities that make for an unforgettable getaway, whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or enjoying a well-deserved escape.


Continuing a Legacy of Recognition


This award joins several other recent honors we have received, including the 2025 Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Award, which placed us in the top 10% of hotels worldwide. In 2024, we were also named the #1 hotel in Naples and in Florida, #25 in the United States, and among the top 1% of hotels globally by Tripadvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best list.


The Inn has also been recognized with the AAA Inspectors Best Award and the AAA Inspectors Best Housekeeping Award, further highlighting our commitment to excellence in every detail of your stay.


Perfectly located just one mile from the Gulf and next to the vibrant dining, shopping, and entertainment at Mercato, The Inn at Pelican Bay offers a boutique luxury experience like no other. With 100 elegantly appointed rooms, a peaceful lakeside setting, and a team that goes above and beyond for every guest, we’re proud to be Naples’ destination for relaxation, romance, and refined comfort.


Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, we invite you to come and see why The Inn at Pelican Bay has been a Four Diamond hotel for a decade. Book today online or by calling (239) 597-8777.
