Waterworld


Weekend on Venetian Bay in Naples. Boating, shopping, dining...

And just so you know, this condominium complex is firmly planted in the middle of the Bay. WaterCar mandatory ;-)

Beautiful condos. The water looks wonderful also.

Never seen anything like this before! I guess it would be nice not to have to keep up the grounds! And where do the residents keep their cars?

Wow, literally in the middle of the water. Beautiful, though.

I've always wanted to live on a houseboat so I wonder if this condo would be the next best option? I think I'd like to try it out.

hmmmm...I'm not sure what I think about these...they are just sorta....there....in the water...I think what I'm thinking is that they shouldn't be there. I wanna tell em to git back on the land.

The clarity of the water is great - everything in the photos is so sharp & colorful.

Jilly said...

Impresssive although perhaps not very Truffles friendly! Those water cars - via your link - are amazing. And Venetian village is interesting in that the shops seem to be boutiques rather than, as in so many places, named-brand shops.

Amazing photography, including the water car.

Is this smart since FL is like hurricane central?!?!?

IT is gorgeous, nonetheless.

Makes it kinda hard to just go out for a walk ;-)

By the way did they ever hear about the "Creature from the Black Lagoon"?

Is the water in the bay clean? If so, it would be a lovely place to live.

Will all this blue around, it's surely a great place to live: lovely, quiet and extremely affordable... ;))
Have a great week!

it seems close enough to be connected by a bridge to the left side coast. is that so? or it it that every time a resident needs to get out he / she needs a water car? this is closest to venice that one can get in florida, i guess. btw, do a google search for "Lake Palace hotel at Udaipur" and see the results.
and also, the quote that you've included at the header of your blog "we live in a wonderful wrold...." is by JAWAHARLAL NEHRU, u've missed an 'L'

Oh wow! Now I can see why you swapped Poland for Naples! Simply stunning!

Sorry for not visiting your site for such a long time but here at TORUŃ DP we have been very busy! Doesn't mean we have forgotten about your site though!

superbe,les bâtiments dans l'eau j'aime beaucoup, mais je ne vois pas Jeanne Tripplehorn.

Beautiful, buildings in the water I like very much, but I do not see Jeanne Tripplehorn.

Peter said...

Looks like a paradise place... maybe except during days of hurricanes (as ming mentioned)! Any shops in the building, because even with a water car... if you forgot to buy your "baguette"?

Gwen said...

Hi Isabella, I emailed you about itinerary. What nice photographs of Venetian Bay and the areas of houses around.

Very interesting! I wonder how popular that place is. Great photos!

So very Florida!
