Naples calls itself the golf capital of the world, and the deals run the full range, from resort stay and play at the Ritz-Carlton to public rounds you can book by the tee time. Here is how the 2026 Naples and southwest Florida golf packages stack up, and why the calendar matters most.

In Naples, the season sets the price
Southwest Florida golf is seasonal in a way that dominates everything. Winter is peak, when the snowbirds arrive and the resort and green fee rates climb, and the shoulder and summer months are where the value sits. The deals split between resort stay and play, anchored by the Ritz-Carlton and Tiburon, and a deep bench of public and semi private courses you can simply book a round on. The headline variable is not the course, it is the month.
Below is how the main 2026 package shapes break down. Treat every figure as a planning guide, since Naples runs heavy seasonal and dynamic pricing, and always confirm directly before booking.

The deals worth watching
The resort stay and play
The flagship Naples deal is at Tiburon, where a stay at the Ritz-Carlton Naples pairs with rounds on the two Greg Norman designed courses, the Gold and the Black, cart and tax included. It is the polished, all in one resort option, and Tiburon runs dynamic pricing, so the round rate inside the package moves with date and demand. Confirm the exact inclusions and season when you book.
The public round
Naples is not only private and resort golf, courses such as Lely Resort's Mustang and Flamingo Island layouts take public play from around 150 dollars including a cart, which makes a self made trip stitched from individual tee times entirely viable. It suits golfers who want to mix courses freely rather than commit to one resort base.
Why the season is the deal
The single biggest lever in southwest Florida is the calendar. Winter peak rates can be a multiple of the shoulder and summer numbers, so the same courses are a very different proposition in March and in September. The real deal in Naples is often simply playing the same golf a few weeks either side of peak, and a package can lock favourable rates before the winter rush.
Our take
Naples has the golf and the polish, but the trip lives or dies on timing. In peak winter it is a premium destination priced accordingly, while in the shoulder and summer it turns into one of the better value golf bases in the country, the same courses for a fraction of the high season rate. The resort stay and play buys convenience and a marquee base, the public rounds buy flexibility.
Our advice is to decide your dates first, since the month moves the price more than the course choice, then pick resort or self made to match. Our Naples and southwest Florida golf hub and the best golf courses in Naples and southwest Florida list set out the options, our when to play guide covers the seasons, and our team can package the stay and rounds to the head.

Naples golf deals, your questions
What golf packages are available in Naples for 2026?
The flagship deal is a resort stay and play at Tiburon, pairing a stay at the Ritz-Carlton Naples with rounds on the two Greg Norman courses, cart and tax included. Beyond the resorts, public courses such as Lely Resort's Mustang and Flamingo Island take rounds from around 150 dollars with a cart. Rates swing with the season, so always confirm directly before booking.
When is the cheapest time to golf in Naples?
The shoulder and summer months, outside the winter peak. Southwest Florida runs heavy seasonal pricing, so winter rates can be a multiple of the shoulder and summer numbers for the same courses. Playing a few weeks either side of peak is often the real deal in Naples.
Can you play Naples golf courses without a resort package?
Yes. Alongside the resort stay and play options, courses such as Lely Resort's Mustang and Flamingo Island take public play from around 150 dollars including a cart, so a self made trip stitched from individual tee times is entirely viable. A package mainly buys convenience and a marquee base.
