I was not impressed by anything this hotel had to offer. Check in was fine although the people behind the counter put on this fake "ritzy" persona. They would be better off not pretending and just be down to earth. The hotel is nothing great. The lobby is beachy and simple. I would say that even though I did notice a person in a wheelchair, I found this hotel to be very wheelchair "unfriendly". The property is mostly elevated and there are stairs everywhere. Elevators were so slow I would guess that there might have been someone hand cranking the up and down movement. Kidding aside, this hotel is not worth the money because it is not convenient to Sanibel or Captiva. It is located on the free side of the bridge so every time we wanted to eat at a great restaurant, we had to pay $6.00 to cross the bridge. This hotel is actually on the Ft. Myers side and that is nothing but trailer parks and moderate communities. The rooms at the hotel were outdated and musty. The hallways smelled of sewer water and the stairwells were worse. We were forced to use stairwells or we would have spent the whole vacation waiting for the elevator. We had a suite (room 350) The bed was a bit lumpy and the balcony had very old patio furniture on it. Too old and dirty to sit on! The food at the hotel is very very expensive and the pool bar staff is even more unfriendly than the front desk. At least they didn't fake their personalities. By the way, the fries don't come with the meal and they are $5.50! The pools were okay but they are just wading pools. None are deeper than 3'6". They also need to be updated with tile and coping. I felt that the whole time I was there, they wanted me to feel like I was lucky to be there and not that they should feel lucky that I chose their hotel. I usually stay at Hilton's and Marriott's and this property felt like they were above that and not even on Sanibel Island. Only positive comment for this property is the marina area. During the day they have 5 hammocks on a fake beach and at night you can watch the dolphins in the water, just don't forget to bring lots of bug spray! « less
