Steward Banquet Lead in Naples, Florida at Port Royal Club

Port Royal Club, located in the heart of the prestigious Port Royal neighborhood in south Naples, Florida, is a private beach club dedicated to luxury, leisure, and exceptional service. Membership is exclusively tied to property ownership within the Port Royal community, making the Club a cornerstone of one of the most distinguished addresses in the country.

Our Club offers an array of world-class amenities, including a 10,000-square-foot fitness center featuring yoga, Pilates, and spin classes, as well as a serene spa for wellness and rejuvenation. The tennis center boasts nine Har-Tru clay courts and a 1,300-square-foot pro shop, catering to both recreational and competitive players.

Following the impact of Hurricane Ian in 2022, the Club has embarked on a $100 million rebuilding to reimagine our facilities. The new 62,000 sq. ft. clubhouse - set to open in fall 2026 - will embrace timeless West Indies architecture and offer an elevated member experience, featuring a coffee shop, three signature restaurants with indoor and outdoor dining overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, four bars, a banquet venue, a lap pool, and access to our pristine private beach.

This is an exciting time to join Port Royal Club as we prepare to unveil a new chapter in our storied history.
