Excellent!!!! Everything is new after Ian. All of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Loved having the chairs, umbrellas and towels at the beach and pool. Nice quality SUP, paddle & lifejacket, too. It was worth it to pay the extra for the Gulf View room and 2nd floor. Sanibel is coming back!

Sanibel is definitely not what it used to be…..

On the "up" side: The room was very nice....quiet, clean, comfortable bedding.....The hotel grounds/location was good. There were bike trails all around Sanibel. We enjoyed Mudbugs (cajan restaurant) and The Lighthouse Cafe nearby (great breakfast!) On the "down" side: The beach was not as full of shells as it was prior to last years' hurricanes. The No-See-Um population was a nightmare….still dealing with all of the “bites” I got while sitting out near the pool/tiki bar and later when in the parking lot loading our bikes onto our vehicle..... Sanibel was a bit of a "ghost" town....but at least there was no Red Tide going on during this visit...... Overall, I think we are "done" with Sanibel.....don't see much reason to return......
