Sanibel Island Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We came to Sanibel for a mother-daughter getaway, and this resort was perfect. The staff is friendly and extremely helpful, the grounds are well-maintained, access to the beach could not have been easier, and the pool was clean and provided relaxation. I can't say enough about how clean our room was on arrival, and throughout our stay. The food at the cafe and restaurant was good too! Highly recommend!"
