Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Sanibel. The amenities were top tier. Espresso machine in the lobby. Access to their bikes and beach chairs/ umbrellas all included is unheard of. The pathway to the beach is really nice and a short walk. I found some of the best shells just steps from my room. Having a restaurant and bar on site was really nice as a solo traveler too. I would absolutely come back here.

Absolutely loved our stay! We were a family of 5 that stayed in a 2 bedroom condo with ocean view. The staff was courteous and extremely accommodating, free bike rental, the restaurant by the pool was awesome and the space was incredibly clean. 10 out of 10 for sure! Worth the price! Don’t waste space packing beach towels or sand toys- there are pool noodles, buckets and shovels for the kiddos and pool/beach towels are provided.

We just returned from Sanibel and stayed at the Sanibel Inn. The property was recently renovated and the rooms were great! Very clean with a beautiful view of the ocean. The staff was extremely helpful and provided towels, chairs and umbrellas for the beach. The landscaping was beautiful. We would definitely recommend this property. It was perfect for our stay!
