Great Wolf Lodge indoor water park resort announces Southwest Florida grand opening date
A Florida indoor water park resort is opening ahead of schedule.
Great Wolf Lodge Inc. is holding its grand opening Sept. 18 in Naples. The original timetable for the park’s opening was Oct. 1, set after Hurricane Ian in 2022 ravaged Southwest Florida and delayed construction.
It’s the first Florida location for the Great Wolf Lodge, with the company’s only other branded indoor water park resort in the Southeast in Atlanta.
The Naples park is located near the Interstate 75-Collier Boulevard interchange, next to the Paradise Coast Sports Complex, a roughly two-hour drive from Bradenton or Miami.
Reservations have been open since 2023.

There are several amenities at the Great Wolf Lodge. They are:
- A 92,000-square-foot indoor water park, heated to 84 degrees, featuring a wave pool, lazy river, play areas and 12 water slides, including a new attraction called Breakaway Bay.
- A 60,000-square-foot family entertainment center known as the Great Wolf Adventure Park offers a variety of family-friendly attractions, including MagiQuest — a live-action adventure game where players use interactive magic wands to battle goblins and dragons.
- Family events and activities including Yoga Tails, a morning exercise program, and evening events such as the Hustle & Howl dance party and Story Time event.
- Several dining options ranging from pizza and burgers to upscale dining and premium ice cream treats at Wood’s End Creamery.
