The property is super convenient the beaches across the street a volleyball pool and then a huge lighted pool. The rooms were very clean older but clean and very comfortable. Mine felt like a little apartment tiki bar downstairs is great. The food is good. The drinks were good. They do play music until about midnight so if you don’t like music till that time, this isn’t the place for you lol. We will definitely stay here again.

The property was clean and absolutely gorgeous. The pictures honestly didn't do it justice. The hospitality was great! The communication was top notch, but they weren't too much at all. Great privacy! Beach was steps away from the elevator. The location was wonderful! It was secluded but everything we needed was very close by. Sanibel Island was a 10 minute drive at most! We are only going to stay at this property in the future.
