Summary of reviews
The property received high praise for its great location, spacious and clean condos, easy beach access, beautiful views, and well-equipped amenities. Highly recommended for a relaxing and enjoyable stay!
10.0
We had a wonderful stay! Quick walk to the beach, plenty of beach items (beach towels, good chairs and easy to put up umbrella), tubes/noodles for floating, along with a volleyball and football. Easy building to navigate and quiet location just steps from the beach. The beach area wasn’t highly populated, which is exactly what we prefer. The condo was clean, master bed slept great and I was pleased to find that the washer/dryer was inside the condo. The owner was efficient in her communication as well. Don’t hesitate to book!

This is a great condo and a great place … we’ve been coming to Naples for 26 years and this is right up there. The owner was fantastically helpful and easy to communicate with.

I stayed at this property with my husband, 3 boys: ages 15, 20, & 21 and my mother. The condo was spacious, clean and comfortable. It was also decorated very nicely. It was in a great location with a small private pool, hot tub and beach directly across the street. It is located within a short easy drive of the popular shopping areas and restaurants. Owner was easy to communicate with as well. Highly recommend!

We were very satisfied with our stay at LaScala. It was what we expected and we were not disappointed. Lots of room, a great view from the balcony, and steps away from the pool and the beach. Lots of beach stuff as well. We would definitely recommend.

Beautiful condo. And great location
6.0
The location is lovely and the apartment is furnished and decorated nicely. However, our concern was that we booked two months after Hurricane Ian and did so based on the ad "no damage to the condo or the complex". This was not a true representation. We paid the full amount upfront. A couple of weeks later, the owner/manager said that she just found out that the elevator was broken and that it might not be working when we arrive. She said that if we wanted to cancel, we would have to file an insurance claim or that she would give us a discount if we still wanted to come. Our travel insurance, like any others, is only for issues related to events that occur after a booking, not for an inaccurate listing. Prior to our arrival, I asked on three different occasions what the discount would be. I never got an answer, even when I told her that one of our party of four (people in our 70s) would not be able to come without the use of an elevator. Since we had already paid, we could not cancel.
When we arrived, we learned that the elevator had not been in use since the hurricane in September and that it would not be repaired until after our stay. During our stay, I reached out to VRBO and told them that I couldn't get a response from the owner/manager regarding the discount and asked what remedy we would have. They contacted the owner and she finally offered a $300 refund, about 5% of what we paid for the rental. She again said we should try to file an insurance claim. I don't think what she offered was fair compensation but more importantly, we would not have booked this property in the first place had we known that we wouldn't have an elevator. The apartment is four stories up from the parking garage.
With a vacancy following our stay, she continued to advertise no damage.

Despite widespread hurricane damage that North Naples continues to recover and rebuild from, we had a wonderful stay for our first time in the area! We loved our direct bay access (saw dolphins, jelly fish, Sheepshead) and the ocean is right across the street and uncrowded in that location. There are many beach toys, chairs, etc for guests' enjoyment on the screened lanai. The building was quiet, even during the holidays (though the few people we met were very friendly) and our particular unit was large, extremely clean, and nicely decorated, with many thoughtful touches. Before you purchase paper supplies/silverware/shampoo/conditioner/body wash, check to see if stocked already--there are plenty of unused items in the kitchen and in both bathrooms that we found after we purchased those items (and ended up leaving our unopened items for the next lucky guests!) The pool was freezing, presumably due to the streak of unseasonable weather, but by the last day of our stay it was warm, clean, and lovely!
Maria was very friendly and responsive and even discounted our stay for the non working elevator (likely hurricane related) with the condo being on 3rd floor. Taking the stairs was our only option and this is something to keep in mind if you or a guest is handicapped or otherwise physically disabled.
We loved our experience and can't wait to return.

The building & area were fantastic. The access to the beach couldn't have been easier. the Host Maria did a great job communicating with us during the booking of the unit. The views of the intercoastal water from the 3rd floor were terrific. The only complaint we had during our entire stay was that the beds were very noisy, creaked and made strange sounds every time you moved. Otherwise, we were very happy!
10.0
We had a wonderful time at La Scala. Perfect location, you can be on the beach in seconds, with gorgeous views of the backwater. The apartment has everything you need including beach chairs and pool toys. The kids loved it and it felt like home. We can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful Beach Getaway
This property was one of the best we have stayed out so far. Although it was a typically humid Florida summer, the unit was very comfortable overall and very well equipped. The property manager was very responsive and the property owner was amazing! You can clearly see the care and detail in all they do.
The view of the bay out the back window was stunning (fishing off of the dock is fun too), and it was an incredibly beautiful, very short and easy walk to the beach across the street. We have stayed in other condos directly on the beach where the walk was longer. It is in close proximity to anything you would like to do in Naples; we visited the Artis museum, Fifth Avenue shops, state parks, wonderful restaurants, etc. We had a wonderful vacation and would highly recommend this property!

Great location for beach lovers
My family and I recently stayed for a week. The condo was clean and spacious. We had 4 adults and 2 small children and there was plenty of room for everyone. The short walk across the street to the beach was perfect for our family and it was just a short drive to restaurants and shopping. We had a wonderful time!

2nd Stay at La Scala
We first found this property last year when trying to plan a family trip to Naples. The layout of this condo and access to everything is exactly what we were hoping for. Our 2nd stay felt like we were coming home. Plenty of room and steps from the beach

Perfect condo and location for us!
This was the 2nd time we’ve rented this condo and it was another great vacation! The location of the condo near the beach and everything Naples has to offer was so great that we already booked it again for next year. If you love the beach, this is the place to stay.

Location !!!
The location is great with a neath access across a local road. The sea waters are usually very calm on the mornings. Great walks on the beach for miles.be aware of Beach is being rebuild at this time by county.Public access is blocked. Condo has very good layout specious and fully equipped. Thd check out is too early at 10am sharp.It should be at least at 11AM. We hadto purchase 4 beach chairs and owner promised to reimburse us as she was not aware of the lack of it and condition of 2 old and non functional. Great vacation over all. Thank you Naples 😊

Great Week in Naples!
This property is the best one we’ve rented so far. Everything was perfect for a relaxing vacation, especially the view. The only bad thing was that we didn’t rent longer than a week. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely Reccomend !!
This property was a hidden gem. As soon as we arrived and opened the door we knew we had picked the right place. It was super clean and very spacious with awesome views as well. We purposely woke up every morning at 6:00 a.m. so we could sit on the lanai and watch the dolphins swim through the channel.
In the evenings within minutes we were able to walk across the street, head down the private boardwalk to the beach and watch awesome, unbelievable sunsets.
There was plenty of chairs and beach towels as well as a Mini cooler to head right down to the beach.
The property owner was very communicative and responsive!
All of our kids said this was the best vacation we have ever had.
We will be back !
Thanks so much,
The Dresden's

Wonderful condo in great location!
Condo was clean and up to date. Location can't be beat with the beach so close and the deck overlooking the waterway on the other side. Glad to have a cooler available, washer/dryer to use, and a common area grill. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed. Enjoyed this stay and would love to return!

Wonderful condo, with views of the bay off the balcony. Easy and direct beach access.
Overall our experience was very enjoyable. Beautiful views and direct access to the beach, right across the street. Condo was everything we expected from the listing.. Only complaint was a residence of the condo seemed to feel the need to "baby sit" us when we tried to enjoy the pool and spa area. Othe than that, everything was great! Would definitely recommend the host and the property.

Exceeded Expectations!
We had an amazing time at this vacation rental. The condo was very clean and well stocked with everything needed to enjoy your stay. The walk across the street to the beach was super easy with kids! A wagon would have been an extra bonus, but Maria provides chairs, umbrellas, toys, towels, cooler and more so we cannot complain!! Also, I planned to cooked most meals in since we brought our children and the kitchen had everything I needed. We used the grill 4 nights and that worked great as well. The location to grocery store and restaurants could not have been better either! If you want a fabulous seafood dinner walk down the street to the turtle club, it was so delicious we almost went back another evening! We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to visit Naples.

Perfect
This property was the perfect place for our family vacation.
The layout of this condo gave us the ability to have plenty of space for 5 adults to be very comfortable during our Naples stay.
We normally stay at La Playa which is 2 buildings away so this was our first experience renting from VRBO. It exceeded our expectations.
Morning coffee on the patio watching birds and boaters on the channel or walking 100 feet to the beach. We loved this property as our home away from home and hope to make this our place to come back to every year.

Waterfront Beach Fun
The accommodations were wonderful. This is our second time staying at the condo. There are great intercostal views from the condo and it is a very short walk to the beach. The pool and hot tub were added bonuses. We enjoyed having great restaurants within walking distance. We will be back!

2nd time around!!!
Love, love, love this condo complex. We’ve stayed in 2 different condos, both beautiful /clean/ spacious/well appointed and stocked with everything you need for a great vacation. The location is fabulous and the view overlooking the bay from the lanai is peaceful and breathtaking. Beach access is directly across the condo unit. You will not be disappointed in this VRBO rental!!

Home away from home
We’ve traditionally stay gulf side over the years on Vanderbilt, but being bay side has been very enjoyable especially with the morning sunshine. The home is modern, clean and comfortable with everything you need. We were lucky to watch dolphins from the balcony on several occasions.

A place you can call home!!!
I can't say enough good things about the condo and the location. Everything was just as advertised and the condo is fully stocked. The only thing you need to bring is yourself (and your clothes of course) :). As we were getting ready to leave my daughter actually said, "This feels like home." I totally recommend this rental to anyone traveling to Florida.
