There is nothing wrong with it except that it is expensive, but the lack of breakfast is a drawback.

The Marriott Sanibel Harbour Resort took significant damage following hurricane Ian. Almost all of the vegetation and landscaping around the property was lost. That being said, the hotel is working very hard to get it back into shape and this was evident in all the work going on during my stay. Most of the property is back up and running and the staff are doing an amazing job. The only reason I could not give this hotel five stars was the fact that regardless of the hurricane recovery efforts, the hotel is showing its age and needs a significant remodel to the rooms, hallways and common areas. The staff and service was excellent!

I recently completed a three-night stay at this Hampton Inn. The Hilton chain is my go-to because I usually know exactly what to expect. Check in was smooth. I was assigned the room I had selected, a King Studio Suite on the north side of the 4th floor. A previous stay taught me that the south side has a lot of traffic noise. My room’s temperature was noticeably warmer than the hall temperature. I mentioned this to the desk clerk who assured me I just needed to adjust the thermostat. Several hours later, the temp hadn’t budged, and I had to change rooms. To get a room on the quiet side of the hotel, I was downgraded to a regular room with two queen beds. This room smelled of old carpet and wet dog, but the AC worked. The bed was comfortable. I made the mistake of glancing behind the nightstand while untangling the phone cord and saw the litter and coating of dirt. Thick dust was present on the air return in the bathroom. A fair amount of mold/mildew was also visible on the bath walls. There is no daily housekeeping, which is OK. They should leave an extra box of tissues, a couple of garbage bags and enough coffee for the entire stay. The hotel is short staffed. The desk clerk was tripling as manager and maintenance person. The breakfast host was very friendly & attentive. The parking lot is not well lit. Trees are overgrown and hang down over the parking spaces. There is a spray of broken glass on the asphalt in one area – never a good sign. I was traveling for business, and I cannot recommend this hotel. I will not stay here again. There is dire need of a deep cleaning. The remodeling mentioned in some previous reviews is nowhere to be found.

We had stayed at this hotel a few years ago when visiting relatives in Florida. We booked it for a couple of days as we are moving our dad to nursing care on Cape Coral. All we wanted was a good nights sleep in a clean room. This hotel has been updated so much since we were here before. My husband was laughing at how excited I was to see Dove Body Lotion in the bath room, just coming from the Bahamas, my skins was so dry…they have Kerigs for coffee and tea in the room, new carpeting, walls and ceilings newly painted and the beds are so comfy. Just what we need for this trip. There was some music playing next door, but we had a small balcony to sit on a have a cup of tea before bed and listen to the tunes, they stopped at 9, so not any issues with that at all. We have an early start tomorrow so glad they have breakfast in the lobby. I would highly recommend this hotel to travelers. We stayed in room 320 today 3/30 and will stay on 3/31 and head home on Saturday.
