So glad we came back to Sanibel. A lot of restaurants and hotels are still closed but the ones they have opened up are proving great food, service and hospitality. The beaches are as amazing as ever.

After all the destruction of Hurricane Ian the island is about 25% back 18 mo later. Some will never be back sadly. Ding Darling was still wonderful and there are enough restaurants open to enjoy. The beaches were open in many areas and beautiful

The Island is nice, the restaurants are great, but you must warn people about the 'no seeums' so they don't pay $300 a night for a miserable time.

We were only in Sanibel about for two full days so we didn't get to experience as much of the area as we could have. Overall though I really enjoyed our stay. It was nice to be able to hunt for seashells on the beach that were not all broken.
"Very kind staff that worked with us on an issue we had during booking process and at check in! They were amazing to us and I’d be happy to go back anytime "

"Beautifully decorated and clean. Easy access from elevator. Even beach chairs and toys. Owner is accessible if needed which we did not need. Lovely view. We kept migrating between the pool and the beach. Easy access to both. Book it, you won’t regret it!"
"Tarpon Tale Inn is a hidden treasure! If you want a quiet getaway on Sanibel Island with quick access to the beach, a private patio and grill, access to bicycles, an outdoor hot/cold shower, a shell washing station, and beach chairs/umbrella/wagon - this is it! The owner, Joe, has an eye for detail and it shows throughout your stay. I wanted a beach experience and that’s exactly what I got at Tarpon Tale Inn. Other than to explore (Blind Pass, Bowman Beach, Turner Beach and Captiva) the island and pick up a few things at Jerry’s, I had no need to drive. Wickie’s and Tuttle’s are directly across the street, and a deli place is next door - the Sanibel lighthouse is a .6 mile bike ride and beach access is just around the corner is across the street. The king room with full kitchen was nicely equipped and the bed was incredibly comfy. So clean! The “no-seeums” were present and accounted for, mostly at dusk and dawn, not a Tarpon Tale Inn issue because they were everywhere on the island. Guests are offered use of bug spray in the office as a shared option. The Tarpon Tale has a quaint beach vibe I know you will love! "
"The pool/beach area was amazing! The poolside service was awesome. My only concern was me a senior and friend staying with me a senior were assigned a 4 th floor room with no elevator. It took almost an hour to find a space that had an elevator. Jared the security guy was so helpful. Then for check out the system evidently had an issue and tried to charge me for what I had paid for on Expedia. Loved the resort not the service or convenience "
