Top Sanibel Sea School Hotel Reviews

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Love the employees and the friendly staff"

Tarpon Tale Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the Seashell room at Tarpon Tale Inn and will absolutely be back. Joe greeted us on arrival and walked us through all the amenities available to guests — beach towels, chairs, an umbrella, even a beach cart — which made packing so much easier. Since we drove to Sanibel, it was a relief not to have to cram all that gear into the car. The Seashell room itself is cute and just the right size: a queen bed, a small comfy chair with a coffee table, and a little dining table, plus a mini fridge/freezer and microwave. There's also a nice patio out front (bring bug spray — Sanibel bugs are no joke!). The location is a huge plus. It's just a few minutes' walk to the beach, so we skipped the hassle and expense of the island's limited beach parking entirely — we loaded up the provided beach cart and walked right down. A handful of shops (gifts, ice cream, restaurants) are within easy reach too. All in all, I highly recommend Tarpon Tale Inn. It's a small, family-run inn on Sanibel that gives you nearly everything you need for an easy, relaxing beach trip."

Lani Kai Beachfront Resort

8/10 Good

"We had a nice trip but we came in on Labor Day, which was a little too busy full for our liking, the beds were not great and the A/C did not cool down enough ..but if you want more action and music playing all day this is your spot! And True Beachfront property"

Marriott Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We loved the location and our view. We were upgraded to a room on the 8th floor with pool and water view and the sunset was amazing!!! You can either go to sanibel, ft Myers, cape coral or our favorite Lovers Key state park!!!"

The Anchor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room"

Sundial Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Todo fue excepcional volveré a rentar , las habitaciones espectaculares en fin fenomenal"

Kona Kai Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Aside for cleanliness and friendly staff, the room is very spacious."

Sanibel Siesta on the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"This place was great. Family of 4, right there on the beach. Place was amazing"

Resort Harbour Properties

10/10 Excellent

"The property was clean and absolutely gorgeous. The pictures honestly didn't do it justice. The hospitality was great! The communication was top notch, but they weren't too much at all. Great privacy! Beach was steps away from the elevator. The location was wonderful! It was secluded but everything we needed was very close by. Sanibel Island was a 10 minute drive at most! We are only going to stay at this property in the future."
