Sanibel Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time! Between the beach, the pool, and the tiki bar we were relaxing and having a blast all trip long!"

Newly remodeled Parakeet cottage! Walking distance to beach, restaurants, shops!

8/10 Good

"This place is perfect for two people or just one! We did enjoy being on the quieter part of the island. Very close to the Wickies restaurant, the lighthouse, and beach access is about a 9 minute walk. The house has very little kitchen utensils. We wanted to grill, but did not want to buy cooking utensils. I would recommend more utensils. The bathroom is very very small. We had to sit at an angle to use the toilet. In the shower if the shower head isn’t positioned correctly water will get through the glass door and have the entire floor soaked. More beach towels would have been nice and clean ones at that. Ours both had food stains on them. The bed was not comfortable at all. We did not look forward to going to bed every night. We did enjoy the beach supplies , that was a plus and the complimentary bikes. Make sure you bring extra quarters if you want to do laundry. They did provide enough detergent which was nice as well. Overall for the price it was good."
