Thank you Sanibel Inn! We had an amazing getaway!
Pros:

I loved the landscaping, the property with the grassy areas the pool areas and the updated refurbished rooms. I also loved that the parking was covered on the ground floor so my car didn’t cook.

Cons:

Nothing. Our stay was amazing. Right as we arrived on property, the office staff came outside and offered to get our group photo we were struggling to take ourselves before we even checked in. When we did check in we were allowed to check in early which made all the difference as we were only staying one night. If we hadn’t we would’ve been able to enjoy the beach front and pool areas because at the time of our true check in there was a huge thunderstorm. So we appreciated an early check in very much! I also loved that there was free use of pool floats, paddle boards, kayaks and bikes! We ate at Dante’s for the breakfast deal and it was delicious. Our server was excellent and helped us with everything we needed. I would definitely stay here again and I’ll tell people about this place!

Lovely place, shame about the restaurant.....
Pros:

Room was snug rather than spacious, but very nicely decorated in nautical themes. Easy access to the pool and beach

Cons:

Bathroom was small, and with the door right next to the second bed, was difficult to access without waking your partner. Restaurant was ok for breakfast but poor for dinner. Seems they mainly supply pizzas for guests to take away! My preferred main was unavailable on both nights, and there was NO desserts at all. So, not the full service restaurant we expected
