"Upon arrival, the front desk was very helpful explaining everything in detail. The room was very clean & spacious and had everything we needed for our stay. The location on the beach and the view was AMAZING!! We would definitely stay here again…HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!"
"Makes you feel at home. Impeccably kept. Joe and Maureen give attention to details and think of guest convenience and hospitality. Excellent location. Steps from beach and little stores. Sanibel is gorgeous and chill, and so is Tarpon Tales Inn."
