We thought the hotel was perfect. We frequent sanibel. Staying in almost a different place everytime. This place is definelty not the cheapest. But everything was on point. Clean beautiful. My kids really appreciated the kayak and paddle boards. So did their grandmother actually. We will be back again some day.

Beach access is excellent. Pool staff, towel availability and bar personnel all excellent. Rooms are clean, bathroom and mini-kitchen well designed. There is a smell in the water through the faucets we noticed in our shower, and in the water served to us at the pool bar and it is horrible - absolutely undrinkable. Like bleach. We did have to switch rooms from building 3 top floor suite upon arrival because that "bleachy" smell was overwhelming there. We ended up in room 617 which did not have the smell but the bleachy smell was in the shower when the water was running. We strongly recommend offering bottled water at the pool bar and making sure those ice cubes come from good water.

I had an outstanding experience at this hotel. The staff were incredibly friendly, professional, and always willing to help. The room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. The location was perfect, close to major attractions and convenient transportation. The breakfast was delicious with a great variety of options. Every detail exceeded my expectations, and I truly felt welcomed throughout my stay. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, quality service, and an unforgettable experience. I will definitely stay here again!"

Beautiful property. Amazing location just steps from a stunning beach. Apartments well appointed with clever touches including low level sensor lights in the bathroom, electric controlled blinds, easy coffee machine and a fully screened balcony. The pool was relaxing and the pool/beach team were so helpful with towels, beds and umbrellas for the beach. The restaurant, Dante’s, was well priced with excellent food (great pizzas!) and attentive staff. We took out the bikes, which were high quality and the kayaks were well used. The only thing I can think of is the strange positioning of the wardrobe in the sitting area and the odd vertical safe on the wall.

Great to have bikes, which we made daily use of, for getting out and exploring. Our room was comfortable and clean and very peaceful at night.

The property is beautiful! Rooms are pretty with a great layout. Beach is gorgeous! Dante’s restaurant was delicious with fabulous service and priced well. The bed was very uncomfortable. The mattress is lumpy and slopes down on side. The view was beautiful but cut off by building in front of us. I did not feel the view was comparable to price.

Great location on Sanibel Island. Loved the bikes, the pool, the tiki bar, Dante's restaurant, the beach, and the shower/ changing room to clean up before we headed to the airport. Staff was friendly and helpful. The air conditioner seemed to turn off in the middle of the night, so we would get very hot. We would turn down the a/c a degree or two, and then, we would get really cold.

The Sanibel Inn was absolutely amazing! My wife and i went here to celebrate our 20th Anniversary and from the time we booked the staff was amazing! Once we arrived they checked in on us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed! Our room was completely updated and very clean,had all of the amenities, free coffee, coffee machine, toaster , plates, bowls, cups, and silverware. The Sanibel inn has literally everything u could want, stunning landscaping on the entire property, every room has great views of the pool area or the gulf or of both! The beach is very private and they provide beach lounge chairs and umbrellas! They have a tiki bar with full food menu and play music all day at the pool. They have corn hole boards, pickleball courts, free bikes to ride, they provide all of the pool and beach towels, they 4 built in grills for all to use, firepits to hang out by. They also have Dantes Italian kitchen on site which is a very nice restaraunt with great food. I literally cant say enough great things about the Sanibel Inn, they made us feel very welcome and we would reccomend to book a stay at the Sanibel Inn to any of our friends, family and to all of you trying to find a place in Sanibel! You will be happy that you did!

the property is well maintained. Landscaping is beautiful. Rooms are clean and beds are very comfortable. Screened in balcony has 4 chairs and a table. Nice pool with umbrellas and good food at the tiki bar. They also set up beach loungers and umbrellas for guests every day on the beach for you! Room A/C worked great. Full size fridge and microwave. It could use a closet in the master bedroom as there are only 2 nightstands with 3 drawers each, but there was a closet in main room of suite that fit our hanging clothes. Restaurant Dante's on the property has excellent food for dinner. Be sure to try the wood oven pizzas & the tiramisu.

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.

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.

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......

it was our 23 anniversary and i wanted my wife to feel special, we stayed a few times at Sundial resort nearby, an upscale resort. we have never stayed at this resort. but the Inn was way less expansive and we had a group of 10 friends. We came here , the best decision. My wife and kids loved it. The property was all newly renovated rooms were all new , well decorated , the beach was steps away , i fished on the beach and caught a few fish. my kids loved the pool. the guy in front desk was very helpful and super friendly, he should get a raise. never going back to Sundial again. this is my new home.

Room was nice, just a lot of noise in the unit (my personal opinion) and a lot of construction going on around the place - I wasn’t aware of this. Understandable now that I know the area is a lot of places reopening for the first time. The restaurant Dante’s, we went there our first night and it wasn’t a fun experience. Hour wait for our food and kids got food and ate, then my husband. Then me. Said was an issue in the kitchen - again fine stuff happens, but no one really apologized, no drink refills til we were about to leave, etc. service was not above and beyond like I feel you expect in an area like that. Food options on the island limited. Stuff available at the hotel limited. All in all, a nice location. Beach is fun for shells. Kids very much enjoyed the pool. Lot of the things we experienced circumstantial but colored my time there.
- 5/5
Easy to go to. Just beautiful! Everything we needed for a fun, relaxing family getaway. The feel of the island is relaxed and laid back, but there are enough things to do and see to keep everyone busy. Lots of restaurants and activities easy accessible from the hotel, but you could easily make a day at the hotel with beach, pool, tiki bar, and restaurant all right there. The grounds are gorgeous. The rooms are luxurious and clean.

Our stay at Sanibel Inn was wonderful. The property was clean. The pool was lovely. The food at the restaurant by the pool was also lovely. The property was almost complete post hurricane damage. Would love to stay there again. Our favorite thing was the bike rentals. We rode all over the island.

This was the PERFECT spring break stay for our family! Everything was so thought out, clean, and the staff was beyond amazing. From the amenities to the new room, it couldn’t have been any better! Thank you Sanibel Inn!

Didine, and particularly Mickie were wonderful in the registration office. Also, the dining area and all servers there were equally as good.

Great staff, amazing property.

And the tiki bar by the pool and beach insures you never go hungry or thirsty. You don’t need to leave the property if you don’t want to. They really did a nice job remodeling the property and grounds after the hurricane. Will definitely be back.

We were so pleased with the Sanibel Inn. Unfortunately, we were only there for 24 hours but everything was just so nice. We loved every detail of the thoughtful renovation from the floors to the ceiling! We plan to go back and spend more time there!

Our family had been guest here about 6 times before hurricanes. Was happy to see they reopened. Stonework, landscaping was done very well!

1- floors were dirty the moment we walked in 2- elevator down for the duration of our stay 3- a/c went out our last night. Offered a seperate room but 2 family members were already asleep so tried to sleep with balcony doors wide open 4- hot water out for the first day 5- blinds broke upon first use. Staff couldn’t fix 6- main entrance door would not lock from the outside (door frame needed adjustment) 7- constant construction (somewhat expected) peaked our last day there with incessant banging on our ceiling 8- cleaning staff were inconsistent with toilet paper/towels/etc 9- the blinds were basically see through letting all the light from the next building over in at night 10- items in room Not put together (examples: TV wall mount units on the dressers, no phone, lamp on floor) 11- restaurant closed On positive notes - the grounds/landscaping was nice - they provided bug spray (we still got eaten up) - maintainence staff and hotel personal were personable and kind - tiki bar staff were all great - proximity to beach was great - love the screened in balcony (wish it had a light) - toward the end the owner was responsive to our concerns and made some financial restitution for our inconveniences. Hiven even more issues after our discussion, it was not sufficient enough for us to recommend or return at this time I can’t ever remember having so many issues with a vacation rental

Grand Re-Opening went great

The property is rather old but the staff and their attention to details and humble approach makes this place remarkable. I have asked for some modifications in my reservation and they were very caring about it, if you are looking for peace then this is the place. It has everyone that you might need for unwinding.

Nice property on the water with great amenities. Tiki Bar had great food and drinks. Enjoyed the pool area and free bikes. Property is a little dated and bed mattresses are worn to point of you roll to the middle of bed, they definitely need replaced. Overall great stay though!

Stayed at this Inn several times. Always a wonderful experience!!!

The rooms are overdue updating. Bland outdated decor. Ratty rugs and plan dates bathrooms. Outside of the units very unattractive especially compared to the great location and beautiful lobby building. Pricey for the level of decor in the units.

Would recommend a few more room amenities. Had no forks, only one soup spoon and a couple of knives. Also a little more daily cleaning would be great.

Accommodated us last minute, clean, friendly staff. Elevated out of service while there, being replaced, but we were told ahead of time and understand things have to be done. Not at all left in disrepair. Love Sanibel Inn!

The hotel had good amenities, however, finding someone working at the booth to check out equipment wasn't easy. The hours are also very limited.

Great location. Spacious rooms. Friendly staff. Could use more amenities. Not enough pool towels in the afternoon.

This resort was small but quaint. The front desk was very nice and helpful. The room was beautiful and the perfect size for my family, also very clean. The housekeeping staff was also very friendly and cleaned well. The pool was small and usually crowded as was the bar area and they did run out of towels, lounge chairs and umbrellas on the beach but we eventually got them. They offered bikes, paddle boats and kyaks free which was great. The beach was wonderful and very peaceful. The Italuan restaurant closed the kitchen 1 hour before what they stated they closed but there were plenty of outside restaurants that were still open. All in all we would come back to the Sanibel Inn on Sanibel Island, loved it!

I had a reservation at this property for a second floor through Orbitz. The day before the trip they sent me an email saying they moved me to a first floor which I cannot stand because of the noise above ensure enough we had noisy people above us, unacceptable when you made a reservation for a certain room.

Great staff at the resort desk - very helpful (with arrival, with taxi reservation, etc.) Resort's facilities / amenities : beach and pool access, free bikes, bar, restaurant (pizza / italian; breakfast), Good view from condo itself - and large terrasse Condo needs a bit of TLC - new carpet for example, couple of bulbs off, yesterday's deco - nothing dramatic Limited supplies in kitchen

Just right! Incredible view, room was simple but clean and the beach was amazing. Beach hut staff were working hard to alleviate a shortage of umbrellas and we felt valued. GREAT front desk staff!!!

I gave the experience at Sanibel Inn very good but not excellent due the very mediocre room. Room was in need of updating, no housekeeping everyday, and the balcony chairs were hard as a rock

The AC in both the bedroom and living room were making loud crackling noises all night and it was impossible to sleep.

We did not participate in the breakfast. The location was fantastic. The bed in the master bedroom was uncomfortable and old. My back hurt in the morning.
