Sanibel Island Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"This was my 2nd time staying at Sanibel Beach Resort and it was just as good as the 1st time. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I have slight mobility issues and my request for a room on the ground floor was honored. As a solo traveler I always felt safe in and around the resort and beach. My shell bag was filled with lots of new treasures. I will definitely stay there again."

Casa Ybel Resort

6/10 Okay

"It is one of the most frustrating aspects of this experience. The umbrella's and chairs delivered, yet they do not include the pin for the umbrella on a windy day and do not tell you this. I watched everyone on the beach struggle to put up their umbrella and not have a pin. They were happy to take the money, but not explanation nor trust of the guest. When trying to call them, they did not answer the phone, sometimes for 45 minutes. Then the attendant would take even longer to fix the problem. The management itself has some fixing to do. They are not for the customer, they come up with excuses and blame the customer before they take any credit. Honestly, I would find another property if you want a full relaxing experience. It took seven days for management to fix a problem they caused on my credit card. If customer service is what you enjoy in addition to your trip, go elsewhere."

Tarpon Tale Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Far exceeded our expectations and hopes. We were welcomed by the owner who gave us a tour, oriented us to the Inn and community, showed us the amenities, which included bikes for getting around with lots of biking lanes on the Island. Also the amenities included everything for the beach-beach cart, chairs, umbrellas, towels, shell hunting equipment and bucket with a sink for cleaning the treasures, outdoor heated showers, table and chairs on the partially enclosed porch outside your door for eating, hammock and bench swing every few cottages for relaxing. Quiet, within two blocks of both bay and the gulf with white sand beaches… beautiful. Set within trees with designated parking place for each room. Our room which was one of the smaller ones, was great for my wife and I, with a fridge, microwave and dishes. Restaurants right across the street and next door, with a couple of stores within walking or riding distance, even some grocery stores a short ride down the street. We will be back!"
