Mercato

Mercato is North Naples’ premier destination for shopping, dining, and nightlife – just minutes from many of our Vacation Homes and Vanderbilt Beach

Located in North Naples, Mercato is one of those places you’ll likely end up visiting more than once during your stay. It’s not just a shopping spot-it’s a lively area where you can grab dinner, walk around, and enjoy a relaxed evening out. With its open-air layout and easy walkability, it’s perfect for browsing boutiques, stopping for a drink, or heading out for a nice meal after a beach day at nearby Vanderbilt Beach.

You’ll find a mix of shops, restaurants, and entertainment all in one place, with a great atmosphere both during the day and in the evening. There are often events happening as well, which adds to the energy of the place. It’s a simple, easy choice when you’re not sure what you’re in the mood for—and that’s exactly why many of our guests staying in Naples Florida Vacation Homes make it one of their first stops.

Shopping

Mercato caters to shoppers with discerning taste, offering a curated mix of national brands and specialty boutiques. Beauty lovers can browse Ulta Beauty for premium skincare, cosmetics, and haircare, or stock up on gourmet essentials at Whole Foods Market – perfect for preparing meals back at your private Naples Vacation Rental. From fashion and accessories to specialty shops, Mercato makes it easy to spend a relaxed afternoon discovering something new.
