    A short guide to Sanibel Island

    The beacon at Lighthouse Beach is one of Sanibel Island’s the most photographed landmarks. Nearby, artsy Old Town Sanibel retains its low-slung buildings. The island has strict rules on development; here, palm trees are the tallest things. The J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge takes up nearly half of the island. The park is home to 220 bird species, including the iconic pink flamingo.

    I was looking for a weekend get-away and it was between West Wind and Island Inn. I choose West Wind since it seemed closer to the beach and for the price. I read all the reviews, even the one that gave it a 1 star stating that the rooms were in poor condition. What I found upon arrival was beautifully updated room!! I had a view of the pool and the […] beach; the beds were awesome (wish I had one at home), soft linens, wonderful shower, small frig, microwave, safe, flat screen TV, etc., etc., etc. If you're looking for a quiet place to stay and VERY close to the beach, then choose West Wind Inn, you won't be disappointed!!

    it has been 17 years since my last visit to Sanabeil Island and I was not sure what your place would be like and needless to say I will be coming back next year with more of my friends and we will be staying at the West Wind Inn. I truely can say that when we left I was at peace with myself. The view from our room was just beautiful even with the Gulf […] as ruff as it was it was still beautiful and the sun sets WOW, your staff and grounds are fabulous. All of my hopes were taken care of by staying at your resort. By the way I went back to work today 11-4-12, and my staff can not believe how calm I was today.Thanks for everything. Read more

    I completely enjoyed my stay at the West Wind Inn. I love spending time by the ocean, so when I was searching online for a hotel, I was looking for a place within walking distance of the hotel. The West Wind Inn did not disappoint. The beach is literally steps away from the hotel. It was wonderful. The room itself was very comfortable. It had a small […] refigerator, a microwave (complete with popcorn), and a coffee maker....all the conveniences to make our stay comfortable. I will definitely recommend this hotel to others as well as stay in it during my next trip to Sanibel Island. Read more

    The location of this hotel is wonderful - directly on the beach. I loved the fact it had screened porches. The location of the pool and tiki bar nearby made everything so accessible. Employees were very friendly. The breakfast at the onsite restaurant was priced well and the food was very fresh and tasty. The absolutely only thing I wasn't pleased with […] was the water pressure in the shower - maybe it was everyone was taking a shower at the same time, but it was just a trickle. Other than that I would recommend the West Wind to anyone heading to Sanibel. Read more

    Room, OK; staff not helpful at all. We asked to see another room--but they said that was "impossible" and we had to stay where we were.
