Sanibel Island short stay

More information at check in would have been very helpful. Many locations are still closed on the island post hurricane, and knowing which was open would have helped. A map would have been very welcome. We were in a handicap accessible room just by chance, however, it would have been difficult for someone who is in a wheelchair to even open the entry door as it is so heavy. It is the farthest room from the pool/ocean and bar as well. One other issue was the housekeeper, who knocked and we told her half an hour please and we would be out of the room. She came knocking 10 minutes later and was making the bed as I came out of the bathroom. I left in such a hurry, I forgot my water and snacks for the beach. There is a very bad no-see-um bug problem on the island. The good part is that the hotel did tell us about in an email ahead of time. Bug spray is a necessity unfortunately, even if you try to sit at the pool or the bar.

We had a great time. The short proximity to the beach, hotel restaurant, and parking was extremely convenient. However, grocery stores, and pharmacies, are rather far, roughly 14 minutes away by car. Goody bags are even given to dog-owners at check-in, including little poop- bags, little rubber plates, and even a blanket. Lastly, what really impressed us was the cleanliness and comfort of the entire room, as well as the service. The staff, especially the front-desk, was readily available to assist with any issues. It was a great experience. I highly recommend.

The property was excellent with all of the amenities and staff were both professional and pleasant! Upon arrival, the room was clean but the hiusekeeping staff missed a couple of small things. That said, they more then made up for it with a thorough cleaning and the staff accommodated our late check out. Would certainly book there again!
