Good the premium suite. The room was awesome. Shelling was good but better at bowman’s beach. I didn’t like that the front desk only recommended their resort. There are other local restaurants and beaches that were fun to try. I would definitely come back.

I booked Sanilbel Island Resort pretty much last minute for a surprise trip for my brother, his wife, my husband, & myself for a one night stay. What a great find. Our room on the first floor was quiet, newly renovated, and extremely clean! My brother's room on the second floor was very clean but probably could use a bathroom refresh. The staff was incredibly friendly and very helpful. We arrived early and were given resort wrist bands so that we could enjoy the amentias while our rooms were being prepared. The restaurant on property is well stocked, and the service - excellent! Bar services at the pool bar and BRGR - outstanding! We would definitely return. Sanibel is a beautiful island.

Sanibel is healing. This location is the perfect spot to visit the beach, pool, lighthouse, ride bikes all over the island. Pretty much everything you might like to do on vacation on Sanibel. The onsite tiki bar and restaurant are very good and huge perks when you don't feel like going anywhere. Some of the details of the room are aging, like non-smart tv and rattling a/c unit, but these are not deal breakers. A great value.

I paid a resort fee but the resort facilities were not at all convenient to my room, which had a view of a parking lot and another wing of rooms. There were no signs indicating how to get to the beach. Suggestion: If noseeums are so chronic a problem that you have to send a warning with the confirmation, rather than having to buy repellent in the lobby, guests would appreciate having a complimentary repellent made available in their rooms, perhaps in travel sized containers, wipes, or refillable containers.
