Owned a condo in North Naples, 2 blocks from Vanderbilt Beach/Wiggins State Park. Great area, great beach, lots of traffic and yes $$...moved to Bonita Beach, even better area, awesome beach, less traffic (except from 7am -9pm, Ha!)...sold the beach house and now rent in The Villages. If you are a golfer..be prepared to pay close to or atleast $100 for 18...more on some of the better courses. We miss the area but seriously, The Villages is a much better place for us to rent (not interested in ever owning a seasonal home again...guess that means we're infamous snowbirds). Long story short...Naples/Bonita Springs is a great place to visit and live...but don't expect your $$ to last as long.
