About this file

The document is a Visitor Metrics and Behavior Report for the Naples, Marco Island, and Everglades area (Florida's Paradise Coast) for December 2024 and Q1 Fiscal Year 2025, prepared by Downs & St. Germain Research. The comprehensive report provides detailed insights into visitor trends, including monthly and quarterly performance metrics, visitor origins, travel characteristics, spending patterns, and economic impacts. Key metrics show positive growth, with total visitors increasing to 259,900 in December 2024 (a 5.1% increase), visitor days rising to 1,832,300 (12.8% increase), and direct spending reaching $260,486,200 (6.3% increase).

The report highlights significant regional and demographic trends, such as visitors predominantly coming from the Midwest (26.8%), Northeast (22.5%), and Florida (18.2%), with an average travel party size of 2.9 and an average stay of 6.6 nights. International visitation accounted for 14% of visitors, with Canada, Germany, and the UK leading international markets. The data also reveals a median visitor age of 53 years, with 35% of visitors aged 50-64 and 23% aged 35-49. While the report shows overall positive growth, it notes potential concerns such as a slight decrease in first-time visitors (from 24% to 20%) and potential occupancy rate challenges due to new property openings in Q2/Q3 of FY25.

OCT - DEC 2024 | Highlights & Potential Areas of Concern

Highlights

• Key Metrics for Oct-Dec 2024 (Q1 FY25) were up Year-over-Year. Although Average Daily Rate (ADR) slipped

2.5%, the increased visitation/demand more than offset the small decrease in average room rates.

• The portion of visitors who stayed in hotels/resorts increased (29% → 34%), as did the portion of visitors who reported using hotel websites/apps to help plan their trip (10% → 16%).

• International visitation accounted for 14.0% of all visitors, with Canada (5.8%), Germany (2.5%), and the UK (2.1%) leading international origin countries.

Potential Areas of Concern

• With multiple new properties set to open in Q2/Q3 of FY25, we could see a dip in occupancy rates when hundreds of additional rooms come online.

• The portion of visitors who were first-time visitors was 20%, down from 24% last year.

• Slight decreases in “definitely” recommending the area and returning to the area.

• Note: may be related to hurricane recovery post-Milton.
