My 1 room studio was impeccably clean and modern. The bedding was super comfortable, and the small kitchen area had everything I needed.Laundry room on premise was a plus. Pool is small and could maybe sqeeze in a few more lounge chairs?Overall I had a great experience at the Sunshine Island Inn and will look forward to another stay!

Large rooms with updated furniture and utilities. Easy access to beach. Sanibel still needs time to recover. Famous beaches are closed for maintenance but this hotel has demonstrated a strong come back. Rate is reasonable and stay is comfortable. Would recommend.

Beautiful room - Clean and modern. The only issue we had was the 2 living chairs and couch was uncomfortable as the cushions were too worn for sitting more than 1 hour.

Great Find
Pretty much brand new rooms following the hurricane - comfy bed, better than anticipated kitchette & bathroom. Nice touches & design throughout. Didn't get a chance to use the pool or grills but both looked well maintained & easy to use. Would highly recommend
