"Amazing Staff"

Sanibel Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This is my 4th stay at the Sanibel Inn. I love the friendliness of the staff. I had a great update about the island from Ryan at the front desk. Leon was kind and thoughtful as he had my towel and umbrella ready for me at the beach. The rooms are beautiful and clean. I loved the new updates such as the motorized blinds and the lighting features. The kitchenette and bathroom were stunning. I cannot wait to come back to my second home! "

Sunshine Island Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The Sunshine Island Inn was wonderful. They is nothing the owners overlooked when designing the room and property. We stayed in the Lighthouse room. It is a king size bed which was wonderful. The small kitchen was fully stock with anything you would need. The unit was so clean when we arrived. They is a wonderful pool which all rooms face with a sliding glass door. The also have chaise loungers, grilling area and even have pool floats at the ready. There is also a sitting area with table and chairs just outside you entry door covered buy an adjustable umbrella. The beautiful beach is just across the street and there is even a private path for the guest. I highly recommend the Sunshine Island Inn it was a great experience! "
