I had a delightful stay at Sanibel Island Beach Resort. The hotel is clean, comfortable, and has a cozy atmosphere. We loved the beach access, the pool area, and the lush landscaping around. A few minor points would be the dated rooms and some slow service at dining, but overall, it’s excellent value for the money.

The hotel offers a beautiful beach and serene atmosphere, making it a great choice for relaxation. The rooms are clean and cozy, but some may find the lack of elevators challenging, especially if you have heavy luggage. While dining was enjoyable, there could be more variety on the menu. The friendly and accommodating staff really enhance the experience, making it a pleasant stay overall.

My stay at Sanibel Island Beach Resort was overall very enjoyable. The hotel offers easy access to a beautiful beach which was a highlight, and I appreciated the comfortable atmosphere with cozy rooms. While the tiki bar provided a nice selection of food and drinks, I found some of the meals to be undercooked. Overall, it was a good value for the location, but some improvements in dining quality are needed.

I had a lovely stay at the Sanibel Island Beach Resort, mostly due to its amazing private beach and cozy atmosphere. The cleanliness of the rooms and the friendly service certainly added to the charm. However, I found the dining options somewhat lacking, and the bar closing early was a bit of a downside. Overall, the value for what I paid was good, especially with the amenities offered.
