Top Mid Island Hotel Reviews

Casa Ybel Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Ybel Resort. The property was very clean, well maintained. The room with attached ocean view living area/ kitchen was amazing. We ate one night at Thistle Lodge and it was also exceptional. We would highly recommend the property."

Sanibel Siesta on the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"The condo was clean and comfortable. No beach views, although we thought that it was what we paid for. Just a huge wall on one side blocking any views, and mosquito netting on the balcony making it hard to see anything but what is right outside the balcony. Very disappointing on the reservation of a beach view."

Kona Kai Motel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent week at the Kona Kai! Rooms are large, cute veranda, property is beautifully maintained. Close to restaurants, Billy's bike rental, Jerry's market, live music at MudBugs and a quick bike ride to Doc Ford's, CROW or Ding Darling! Friendly, helpful staff who treats you like family. Great for solo travelers or family trips!"

THE Palmview AND Sandpiper Inns

10/10 Excellent

"We had a splendid experience at the Palmview. The management was very helpful and even accommodated us when we accidentally booked 1 too few nights, extending our stay on the phone with us. The room was a short walk from a beautiful beach covered in seashells, and it also was near a variety of upscale and casual restaurants. It similarly was conveniently located near Jerry's grocery store and several gift shops. The value for the price of the rooms seems unbeatable on Sanibel Island."
