Great resort, and property. Good food, tiki bar, and activities for the kids at the pool. Bikes to rent were fun, and tennis/pickelball was fun to have right on the property. I've stayed here 3 times, and will be back again some day.
Great staff very helpful
Captains catch a wonderful place to have breakfast and dinner prices are very reasonable
Kept us informed with activities throughout our stay.
Really enjoyed bicycle that is included.
Highly recommend it for couples and families
Great location
The room accommodations were excellent! Very clean and plenty of room. The resort as a whole has “Resort” down to a “T”. They have thought of everything and has a lot to offer. Great place to stay while in Sanibel.
Absolutely stunning property and great location! We used the resorts biked and road around the island exploring its beauty. The pools (there’s many) were so refreshing! There was just so much for the everyone to do. They loved the seashell station after walking the beach to find shells. Would love to come back to this charming island again. Room was also super clean and big!!

Room was clean and was cleaned in the middle of our stay and staff was great.
We did not have a balcony but the condo we stayed in was fairly close to everything. The beach and pool were awesome as well as the rec area. Rode their bikes everyday. Food was excellent and tiki bar was awesome. People were very friendly.

The room and resort were very clean. We at at the Turtles Bar and Grill and the Captain's Catch. The food was great. We spent most our our time at the beach. They provide lounge chairs and umbrellas at no charge. I'd return again without a doubt.

Staff was very nice, pool was warm & clean. Mike the bartender at Turtles Was Fabulous!!!
Our condo was very clean, beds were comfortable, the restaurants were great and all the staff on the property that we spoke with in person were great. A very fun shelling beach and many other amenities. Any kitchen utensil that we needed was there.
Here's what didn't work:
1-We were told that maid service was every three days when we checked in. We assumed that, at minimum, that meant replacing the used towels at least once. We did not have any maid service during our six day stay.
2-There was only ONE kitchen towel. There really should 3-4! We chose to do our few dishes by hand, only running the dishwasher once, right before we left.

We very much enjoyed our stay here and will return. We came only for one night w/ two kids. There were fun activities for the kids (and adults) by the pool. We got up early and went looking for shells on the beach which was a big hit!
The only issues we had were that 1. we booked a king bed but got a double and this is important bc my 4year old gets in bed with us every night so things were very tight. And 2. The mattress was somehow so loud! Every time someone rolled over or got out of bed, I was up.
So, I would request a different room next time but would come back bc of the great staff, location, fun pool time with the kids and the beautiful beach.

Really great to see property coming back to life after getting hit hard by hurricane Ian a few years ago. The room I stayed in was brand new and very nice. Staff was polite, responsive, and helpful. Great pool area with plenty of seating, drink/food service at your chairs, and the kids loved the water slide. The hibachi restaurant on property was a lot of fun as well.

Resort was very clean. Staff were very friendly. Received $180.00 food/ service credit on arrival because some of the resort areas are under renovation because of the Hurricane last fall. My room was so nice and the bed was luxurious. Beach was beautiful!!!

It was very loud early mornings to late afternoon
The people were friendly, we were in an area that was barely finished
The beach was fantastic as always for the money we spent it was not worth it because of the area of the room .
The pool/beach area was amazing! The poolside service was awesome. My only concern was me a senior and friend staying with me a senior were assigned a 4 th floor room with no elevator. It took almost an hour to find a space that had an elevator. Jared the security guy was so helpful. Then for check out the system evidently had an issue and tried to charge me for what I had paid for on Expedia. Loved the resort not the service or convenience
This resort is best for families. The beach is brimming with shells, the pool is perfect for kids and adults. Everything feels clean and new. Really nice to have food options on site. I recommend ordering groceries for delivery from Jerry’s. We loved the access to bikes and tennis. And the fitness center was great too.
