    Nothing we didn't like. Room was clean and well maintained. Bathroom and kitchenette were both very nice. A 2-3 minute walk from our room to our lounge chairs on the beach. Beautiful water and sand. Pool also very nice even though it was pretty warm most days. But that's to be expected in August in Florida. Poolside tiki bar had cool bartenders and a nice happy hour. Highly recommend.

    Staff was excellent, Gail was very welcoming and helpful at the front desk. The room was clean, amenities were excellent m, enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding plus the chairs and beach toys were nice to have readily available.

    Superb

    Room was snug rather than spacious, but very nicely decorated in nautical themes. Easy access to the pool and beach Bathroom was small, and with the door right next to the second bed, was difficult to access without waking your partner. Restaurant was ok for breakfast but poor for dinner. Seems they mainly supply pizzas for guests to take away! My preferred main was unavailable on both nights, and there was NO desserts at all. So, not the full service restaurant we expected

    Great location and beautiful hotel! So many options to do and see. The mattress needed to be turned as it had a big lump in the middle which made for horrible sleep but that won’t deter me from going back. I definitely will go back! We had a great time!

    Property was clean and very friendly staff food and bar on property and restaurant amazing stay

    One of the cleanest and most well groomed landscaping grounds you can find. Room are new (post hurricane) and well thought out. The beach is wonderful with lounge chairs and umbrellas set up for your relaxation. Staff bend over backwards to meet your every whim and sre very friendly. The tiki hut lunches are a great break as well as a nice large pool. I cannot recommend this place enough if you want convenient locale on Sanibel to all your f the popular spots around.

    From the time I checked in and the time I checked out I had an amazing experience. I came for my birthday with my best friend. I hotel was clean, had an awesome view. I loved the private beach. The ocean was the best part of course, and the grounds were clean and neat. Everyone on the island was nice and friendly.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Extremely hazardous heat conditions and room was not ready waited 3 hours and cancelled.... beach and shelling not any better than shelling all over swf...

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    Beautiful, everything you need for a great vacation is all right there in one place. Everything made easy. Absolutely stunning view from the room. Awesome amenities! Staff wonderful and polite. The Only complaint is the bed, the mattress was very uncomfortable. Like worn out?

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The pool was to be closed and resort fee waived. The pool was serviced faster than management anticipated so they changed the policy and reinstated the resort fee. Guests were to be reimbursed for their lunch. I returned lunch receipt as instructed but it wasn’t taken off my bill. Dante’s dinner was mediocre. If future guests have any disabilities or mobility issues, don’t book here. Not ADA friendly. Beautiful view from window in the room however.

    Experience was amazing I love this resort I was here many times in that past before that Hurricane destroy everything now is even more beutiful

    I like the fact they have EV charger there. Disappointing experience. I was made to wait until 4PM for check-in (while traveling with my 4-year-old child), with no accommodation or empathy from the staff. At check-out, there was zero flexibility.I was forced to leave at exactly 11AM! What makes this more frustrating is that the hotel was very far from full (and was even advertising summer promotions). There was no operational reason for this rigidity, just poor guest service and lack of empathy. I checked here on booking and there were rooms available in the same category… Another issue was the breakfast service — we waited nearly an hour for our food!! There was only one employee covering all the tables, which was clearly not enough.
