Top Bright Water Hotel Reviews

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Buena la comida el personal amable la piscina limpia y los cuartos también"

Holiday Inn Express Cape Coral-Fort Myers Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"We truly enjoyed our stay ( 7 nights ). Staff was great, Everyone! They work very hard to keep the place super clean. Breakfast was tasty ( cinnamon rolls ) with a large selection of fresh foods. Really enjoyed the pool and exercise room. The only challenge was only one elevator was working and it was an inconvenience for us due to being older, slower, and grouchy than most people :-). We will definitely be coming back again when we visit our Cape Coral family."

DiamondHead Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This was our second time staying at Diamondhead and it was once again a great stay. Everything was very clean. We were in a room on the top floor and the views were amazing! Pool was nice and we enjoyed having the bar/restaurant attached to the pool. Location is perfect as well - we could walk to everything in Times Square area."

Edison Beach House

8/10 Good

"I enjoy my stay here, I liked the full beach view and easy access to beach, also all beach chairs and umbrellas are included, free parking and small breakfast included. Room was spacious and had everything we needed, I only thought they could use better pillows and blankets and renew some appliances, as refrigerator was noisy at night, and dryer had rust that stained some of my clothes."
