Sanibel Island Beach Resort
Wonderful property, staff was friendly and helpful and we felt that we actually got a benefit from the minimal resort fee ! The shell collecting bags we received upon arrival was a very nice touch along with the daily bottled water. Housekeeping was top notch and very quick. Beach chairs were awesome ...

Lani Kai Beachfront Resort
We did not receive daily or any $29 VIP for beverages. The balcony view was fabulous but unfortunately everything else mediocre including breakfast. The daily $20 resort only provides you with 2 free waters and beach towels but not parking or beach chairs. We will not be returning.

Trianon Bonita Bay
Room was very nice. Staff, especially John and Jeff at the front desk, were very friendly and helpful. Pool and poolside eating was very good. The Chop House served Trigger fish as catch of the day and it was very tasty! We would definitely stay here again.
