Very nice hotel/resort. Clean, quiet, nice pool, attentive staff. Love the screened in balcony.
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!
We had a fantastic stay here!! Rooms were nice. It was off season which meant a lot of quiet days. The pool was always clean and the staff was excellent. Hannah took care of us poolside as well as at dauntes
.
Clean, loved being right on the beach and the pool was great, the lanai was really nice…had to request a hair dryer, and one day I had to call to get the room cleaned by later in the afternoon. I thought $4 for a cup of coffee in the lobby while we were checking in after a full day of travel was a bit greedy especially because we paid a resort fee on top of a not cheap room rate. That could have and should have been complimentary. Bar food was great outside. Was here years ago, much upgraded and will definitely come again.
Room was very nicely equipped. Beach was beautiful and easily accessible. Resort amenities were plenty and we loved the bikes which we used to tour the island.
My family and I stayed in one of the 2 bedroom condos. The rooms were excellent and view of gulf was nice. Overall staff is very friendly and property has been rebuilt beautifully.
The grounds are beautifully landscaped. The staff were friendly and very accommodating. Our suite had a gulf view and was newly renovated. We enjoyed the quiet peaceful atmosphere and I was even blessed to see a glorious sunrise from my balcony!
We will return to Sanibel Inn. They exceeded our expectations in every way! From easy check-in, friendly staff, delightful accommodations, to the Tiki bar and restaurant food. All excellent!!
