“Great view and grounds”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

people found this review helpful

Just got back from a week at this beach resort. Great weather, great landscaped grounds, beautiful view of the beach. Had one of the large suites which was spacious but not spectacular....given the cost. The sofa bed matress was very dirty and old...but they did replace it with a new one immediately upon complaint. Continental breakfast was typical but ok - great staff at breakfast. Front desk staff leave little room for kudos....not very friendly or helpful - maintence staff was good! Overall I would give the hotel itself about 3 stars and the grounds about 5 stars.

Room Tip: All rooms face the ocean with a great view.....don't get a room above the pool if you want quiet...

“Just perfect!”

Just stayed 6 nights at this great hotel. As many others I choose this because of the reviews here and they were right on spot! We have nothing to complain about and really enjoyed the location on the beach, perfect distance to Times square and the great wifi (actually works at the entire beach in front of the hotel!)!
We will definitely come back!

“Great hotel and Great location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

I chose this hotel based on the positive reviews on Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed! The hotel is in a great location on the beach. A short walk to Times Square with its restaurants and shopping but just far enough away to be quiet and peaceful. The private beach is wonderful and the hotel grounds are very well maintained. The hotel itself is really nice and tastefully decorated. All of the rooms face the gulf and from the second floor and up have private balconies. They are not huge but it was plenty of room for my husband and I. We were very satisfied with our room. The bed was very comfortable and I was impressed with the kitchen. We didn't really cook but it seemed to be fully stocked with just about anything you would need. We also enjoyed the free breakfast every morning. It was so convenient and had a nice selection of items. We would absolutely stay here again on our next visit.

Room Tip: This hotel has five floors. Request a room higher up to get the best beach views.

“Outstanding hotel, service and location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We stayed here last April for week long vacation. We priced other hotels in and around Sanibel Island but opted to stay in Ft Myers. We found the Best Western Plus meet every one of our requirements: breakfast, on the beach w/ a pool and a view. Every room in hotel has an ocean front and a patio or balcony. The sunsets were amazing! Breakfast was good, but the dining area is a bit small. The hotel is within walking distance to a convenience store and also the beach pier w/ shops and restaurants. Chair and umbrella rentals are available right in front of the beach. Jet skis/Wave Runner rentals are available as well. We rented them for 2 hours and had an absolute blast. While on the wave runners, we saw multiple schools of dolphins that made the experience so much better.

If you are looking for a nice, clean place, right on the beach, look no further than this hotel. We would not have normally stayed at a Best Western but this hotel changed our minds.

“Fantastic beach and Great views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

The hotel is just about perfect. Great location, great beach, and the continental breakfast was just right. From what I could tell every room has a great view of the beach. The beach is huge 100 yards of great sand and great shelling. The hotel is an easy beach walk or sidewalk jaunt to the "Times Square" area of Fort Myers Beach. The hotel is very clean and they were doing a lot of upkeep to keep it nice. This is not a negative it was showing they cared - maintenance painting, window washing, etc. The room had a refrigerator and stove/microwave and two full beds. The beds were comfortable though tight for two people in a full. The rooms are not huge, we had three people and you generally end up sitting on your bed. But the bathroom was nice and all rooms have a nice porch for watching the beautiful sunsets and the rooms were very clean.

Room Tip: All rooms appear to have gulf views and there are only 4 floors. I would recommend getting one on t...
