Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa Review

Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa 
$$$$, Fort Myers
Fodor's Review:
Families and business folk who want luxury without Sanibel Island price tags flock to this high-rise resort complex. It is not on Sanibel proper but instead towers over the bay at the last mainland exit before the causeway. Choose from three lodging options -- a concierge club-style inn, the hotel, and condos -- all with sweeping views of island-studded San Carlos Bay. There's also tennis, the best resort spa in the Fort Myers area, restaurants (one of which is a buffet-dining yacht), the gorgeous circular windowed Charley's Bar, and a large free-form pool, among other facilities and activities. Rent a kayak, take a wildlife-viewing cruise, or go fishing. The beach is small and bayside, but transportation to Sanibel's beaches is free. Pros: luxury accommodations, full amenities, great views. Cons: daily amenities fee added to rate, unspectacular beach, high rates.

NOT a resort
Posted by chamberlain999 from Boston on 11/25/07
This hotel is not a resort... it is not on or particularly near Sanibel Island... and is very downmarket. We attended a conference here in October 2007 and were very disappointed. Very poor service, unforgivable" tip cheating on guest checks, managerial indifference... no real resort facilities to justify $15/day "Exclusive Resort Benefits" that you'd receive anywhere else for free. We would not recommend at all. If you want a fabulous resort experience at a TRUE resort in the area, go to the Naples Ritz-Carlton, which we did after only 2 days at the "Sanibel".
