Staff was friendly at check in but when it was 11:04am we got a rude call saying we need to leave the room right now. It just could’ve been addressed nicer. It was 4 mins past and we were zipping up our suitcases. The remodeled rooms are really nice and the sliding glass door was great at keeping noise out. This resort holds a special place in my heart from trips as a kid and it was great to revisit it. Drink prices were affordable and the overall vibe was friendly and fun. Food and shopping was also very enjoyable

Check in was easy and all staff was friendly. The hotel room was updated with new appliances and light-lined bathroom mirrors that were adjustable by type of light. The spacious living area opened with double sliding doors to an absolutely beautiful beachfront view. Once over the bridge, finding the hotel is quick so you’re not sitting in traffic for too long. Thankfully they have additional parking because the main parking area is typically full. The location is within walking distance to many food and drink options. There’s a bar on the ground level that offers a DJ until 10p, so beware if you’re planning an early morning. Overall, highly recommend! I’ll be back!

I DIDN'T LIKE HOW WE COULD NOT BRING OUR LITTLE COOLER WITH ICE AND BOTTLED WATER ONTO THE BEACH YET OTHER PEOPLE WERE BRINGING COOLERS ON THE BEACH. ALSO NO DOGS ALLOWED ON THE BEACH. THAT I LIKED BUT NO ENFORCEMENT OF THE RULE. I WAS ON THE BEACH 6 HOURS AND COUNTED 12 DOGS RUNNUING AROUND AND CRAPING IN THE SAND! THE MUSIC BEING PLAYED AT THE OUTDOOR BAR WAS TO LOUD. TO MUCH BASS. UNFORTUNETLYOUR ROOM WAS ON THE 2ND FLOOR RIGHT ABOVE THE BAR.

Glad to have the Lani Kai reopened after Hurricane Ian and the devastating destruction. Rooms are totally renovated, clean and a really nice layout. We had a great view of the beach and the Gulf. This was a huge major undertaking to remove all of the debris caused by Ian, and then to rebuild literally everything. Staff were really friendly. Looking forward to Island View being open next.

Location was perfect right on the beach and close to everything! Clean and safe property with great restaurants that were currently open. Downside was we specifically asked several times before our arrival for our rooms to be as far from the bar and DJ outside as possible. When we checked in our rooms were right above the Bar and DJ and when we complained they said there was nothing they could do deposing our notes in the system. Also, don’t forget to ask for your 2 bottles of water daily as it’s not given freely you have to ask at the desk. My recommendation is they have coffee and or water offered in the lobby at all times.
