Top Sanibel Island Southern Beach Hotel Reviews

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

8/10 Good
"I knew coming that this wasn't going to look like an exceptional hotel (Radisson/Marriott). It has more of a motel vibe (motel 8/best western)however I did feel safe here. The pool was great, food was great and staff was great. My room was not cleaned well before my stay though. The floors were not cleaned. I expected a little sand but it was like they never swept and mopped. My socks were disgusting after walking on the floor. Bed had someone's long hair on it in more than one spot and shower however I know that's something that doesn't mean the sheets weren't clean. Bed was comfortable. They didn't have blackout curtains instead shutters which I didn't care for. TV was great and access to the beach wonderful. I did also have to walk up steps which wasn't the best thing with my knees. I would stay here again probably but make sure to ask them to clean the floors first. It's not a bad place, I'd stay again."
