Artis – Naples is for just right for your guests who have more refined and elevated taste. This one’s not a hotel but a museum.

The museum boasts a fine array of 15 galleries all filled with various awe-inspiring artworks from seasoned artists both from the local and international scene.
However, if you are gearing for the more off-site meeting location, a bit of break from the sometimes suffocating walls of a typical conference room, then this cozy yet bustling region definitely has something for you too.

Learning about the preservation of the natural environment is important; this is why in the Rookery Bay National Estuary Research Reserve has a very educational and interactive learning center.
