Top Sanibel Historical Museum and Village Hotel Reviews

Sanibel Island Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"Rooms were dated"

Kona Kai Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was absolutely perfect. The only thing I regret is not booking more time here. Perfect location, quiet and peaceful.Very clean,beautiful full kitchen; what more could you ask for?"

Sundial Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Tiki bar and restaurants were excellent and very good prices for excellent food. All staff were so helpful. So much to do. Rooms were spacious and comfy"

THE Palmview AND Sandpiper Inns

10/10 Excellent

"The only issue was checking in was a bit confusing , but everything else was absolutely wonderful !"

Sanibel Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We love staying here. Everyone is so friendly! It’s clean, quiet, and just the perfect getaway!"

Shalimar Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"The Good: this place was remodeled in 2025 and everything is new looking and the rooms are beautiful. There are free to use laundry machines, free to use beach chairs and you can get free coffee pods for the Keurig machine in your room. The beds are comfortable and the air conditioner is super quiet. Nice and close to the beach. The Bad: this is a noseeum hell! These nasty little bugs are everywhere. The rooms have screens for the outside sitting area but the noseeums can get through the screens. We bought the bug spray they sell at the office and it could not keep them away. Also, you have to pay to rent a beach towel which is $5 a day. They have beach cruiser bikes, but you have to pay $20 per day to rent them. The swimming pool is nice but the noseeums make it unuseable. There's a place on the roof to watch the sunset, but the noseeums make it unuseable. Bring strong bug spray if you come here!"

The Anchor Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The property is very clean and neat. The thought put in to the details made our trip easy. The access to bicycles, laundry and beach equipment made our week smooth. The cottages were clean, so aesthetically pleasing and well thought out. We would definitely recommend this stay."

Sanibel Siesta on the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Un lugar súper limpio y muy acogedor todo muy cómodo y agradable"

Driftwood Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage was well stocked with all we needed. It was also immaculate with a lovely garden. The beach was a 5 minute walk."
