10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was amazing!!"

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Need to have Sanibel map of sites in each room, an outdoor shower to clean off sand near tiki hut would be great! Loved toiletries. Bar is a little pricey 2 small bloody marys and one appitiser of onion rings = $50 plus tip. Your remodel is fantastic. You will see us again for a 5 day stay with more girlfriends."

Sanibel Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Rebuilt post-hurricane so brand new throughout. Our suite was a good size and well-equipped, power blinds, nice balcony. Excellent bed and bedding. Dante’s - which a little cold and noisy - the only dining option when the Tiki bar had a private event and the Tiki bar closes at 7 in any event. Very pleasant and helpful staff. An excellent coffee service at the reception. I would come back!"
