Find hotels in Shell Harbor, Sanibel

"My daughter and I stayed here for a relaxing beach getaway and overall we had a good experience. The grounds were well-maintained, the beach access was great, and the location made it easy to enjoy shelling, sunsets, and exploring Sanibel. The staff we interacted with were friendly, and we appreciated having guest laundry available during our stay. That said, there were a few quirks we wish we had known ahead of time. It would have been helpful if the hotel gave guests a heads up about the strong taste/smell of the island water, similar to how they warn guests about sand flies. Also, since the hotel room doors open to the outside, it would be nice if parking spots were assigned or numbered by room. Searching for parking and then walking back to the room at night wasn’t ideal. Our room itself was comfortable overall, but there were a few maintenance and layout issues. The door to the room didn’t fully seal, and we could see daylight coming through the edges. On our second day we had to call the front desk to request housekeeping. Noise could also be an issue at times with doors slamming and dogs barking in nearby rooms. The bathroom setup was… interesting. The sliding barn door with frosted glass looked modern, but one of the bathroom lights stayed on like a nightlight, so the light shined through the frosted glass into the bedroom all night, which made sleeping harder than expected. Overall, we still enjoyed our stay and made wonderful memories here."

"Need to clean pool area."

"This is a hard one. We loved the location. The room was very clean & updated. We loved that they provided beach towels & we didn’t have to pack those! We could walk to everything! But the staff… they couldn’t get on the same page. We were told we could stop"

"I don’t recommend."

"Front desk staff, I believe Victoria, was very nice!"

"Our entire stay was incredible. All of the staff were so welcoming and helpful, especially Tina in the morning for breakfast and Kathy at the bar in Shoeless Joes, they made the experience that much better. My only downside is there was only one working elevator so sometimes it took a minute to get to you or it would be full by the time it stopped but other than that the room was clean, the food was great and the staff was exceptional."

"Staff very friendly, room clean and property very clean "
