Top Dinkins Bayou Hotel Reviews

Residence Inn by Marriott Fort Myers Sanibel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the balcony view, breakfast spread, hot tub and heated pool."

The Lighthouse Resort Inn & Suites

8/10 Good

"Room was old and worn out. Alarm beeped all night long from outside fire safety light.Bed was comfortable but didn’t have a blanket or cover, only two sheets. Couldn’t figure out the tv. Shower leaked into kitchen. Stove but no pans(wouldn’t have used it anyway). Nice packet of coffee but barely any cream or sugar. Pool was crowded with empty cans and cups all over. You don’t have to stay at the hotel to use the pool. No beach towels only white bath towels from your room. Location is great. Parking is free. Tiki bar was especially fun since it was Halloween. Drinks and food are good. Bartenders are really nice. No Expedia perks."

Pink Shell Beach Resort and Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Resort is very clean and nice to have restaurants and bars on site. Close to many of the restaurants in Fort Meyer’s beach. Pool and beach chairs are nice to have and also free use of bikes. We rode bikes on beach Only downside is drinks way to expensive but you could bring own drinks as have fridge in room."

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The perfect place to stay for shelling!! Right on the beach with chairs on the beach to use. Great pool with bar, hammocks to relax under the palm trees, or play a game of bags. Great restaurant at resort. The staff was amazing and wonderfully helpful! I stayed in the king's suite, which had a kitchen and amazing soaker tub, It was great. I will be back with friends!"

Marriott Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful resort. The fitness center was well equipped and clean. The pools were wonderful. Dolphins were observed feeding just off the dock. The walking paths are nice. Even off season there were plenty of staff in restaurant and at the pool cafe. Great view off the balcony of our room. Be prepared for extra fees for resort and parking. If you rent a car bring your EZpass . A lot of tolls in FL including the Leeway to Sanibel. Princess cruise was not operating so we went to Naples and took a sunset cruise dinner cruise!"
