October, November & December ~ Perfect Time for Your Florida Vacation in Naples

One of the best things about visiting Southwest Florida during this time of year are the number of people who AREN'T here.  We love our Snowbirds (i.e. Part time residents who live in Naples during the winter to escape the cold & snow up North) although there is something to be said about low priced airfares & accommodations leading up to visits during October, November & December.  Cooler nights & more moderate temperatures are the perfect backdrop for your Florida vacation in Naples.

In addition to the lure of our stunning Naples beach vacations, here are my October picks for Top Reasons to plan your vacation in Naples:
