    stunning views
    friendly staff
    lack of cleanliness
    outdated decor
    limited options

    The location right on the beach offered stunning views and convenience, a definite highlight of the stay. Unfortunately, room 114 fell short in cleanliness and decor, showing signs of neglect with unclean surfaces and outdated furnishings. Staff were friendly, but the service felt lacking, as issues raised went unresolved, including dirty kitchen chairs and inadequate bathroom cleaning. Breakfast options were limited and did not meet expectations. nice yogurt but far from a satisfying meal.

    Had an amazing stay at Sunset Beach Inn! The partial Gulf view guestroom was so spacious and comfortable, making it a perfect retreat. Enjoyed relaxing on the balcony with stunning views. The complimentary bike rentals were a fun way to explore the island and the staff was always friendly and helpful!

    Some amenities could use minor updates.

    dated decor

    The room showed signs of age, with outdated decor and worn furniture dampening the overall experience. I encountered issues with the refrigerator—missing shelves limited storage for groceries significantly, and the old mattress springs creaked excessively, leading to uncomfortable nights. Additionally, the absence of on-site dining options meant traveling elsewhere for meals, which can be a hassle after a long day at the beach.

    The freshly prepared salads at the Sunset Beach Inn were nothing short of a culinary delight! I also snagged some killer local seafood at nearby spots that’ll have you raving about the flavors for weeks! Plus, the dining bar area had a chill vibe to kick back after a day of adventure.

    Though the guest room decor could use a little TLC, the overall experience still sparkled, making it easy to overlook that minor detail.

    friendly service
    beach access

    This place was an excellent fit for a getaway in Sanibel with high value for money. The beach was filled with shells to pick early in the morning. Remember to bring your own food as there aren't many places to eat nearby.
