“Located on Sanibel's southernmost tip, the hotel has a prime spot for shelling, and it's clear they emphasize conservation. I noticed extras like personalized anniversary touches, plus guided nature walks that seem a step above the usual. It feels like the kind of place where families can settle in, with spacious suites and the option of dining at Traditions restaurant.”
