Baymont by Wyndham Fort Myers Central
This place was OK. The rooms didn’t smell good, we rented two rooms and they both had issues, one of them smelled like sewer and the other one smelled like roaches. The beds were OK but the bathrooms needed maintenance.

Holiday Inn Express Cape Coral-Fort Myers Area by IHG
The staff were great at problem solving , there was a problem with their network and check in. Just a word of caution. If you travel with a pet the room we were in was overwhelming with the smell of urine. The carpets should be removed and replace with tile . The stench was awful. Room 106

Hyatt Vacation Club at Coconut Cove, Bonita Springs
This resort was awesome. The shuttle to the boat then to the beach was amazing. On the way to the beach, we encountered 4-5 dolphins following the boat. The lazy river was nice just cold. The resort itself was clean, staff was friendly and helpful, and the rooms were also clean and spacious.
