"Megan F. was thorough and friendly We will stay at Kona Kai again When it's not a hundred ten degrees 😂 Our room was really nice and clean Loved the bathroom mirror 😉 I had a little difficulty stepping into the tub/shower the side was high I have knee replacements and it was hard lifting my leg (I use a safety bar at home) Maybe a suggestion to install a bar"

"Nothing we didn't like. Room was clean and well maintained. Bathroom and kitchenette were both very nice. A 2-3 minute walk from our room to our lounge chairs on the beach. Beautiful water and sand. Pool also very nice even though it was pretty warm most days. But that's to be expected in August in Florida. Poolside tiki bar had cool bartenders and a nice happy hour. Highly recommend."

"Our cottage was great! It was clean, and the bed was comfortable. It was nice to have porch areas out front and back and it was an easy walk to the beach and restaurant/ice cream shop. It was also nice to have the small pool to cool off in. Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back to Sanibel!"
