Scene

A welcoming, beachfront hotel with a lovely garden

A friendly and inviting
atmosphere flows throughout the hotel, which sits by the beach and is surrounded by well-maintained grounds full of plants and cement walkways meandering through the property. Marvelous trees, bushes, and flowers surround a lovely pond in the garden area and there's a small path leading directly to the sandy beach. The common indoor areas are limited to a small, functional lobby, which is a colorful space with green walls and a blue front desk
adorned in fish netting and shells. Two wicker high chairs provide seating
and there's a popcorn machine in the corner and various tourist brochures available. 

Location

Beachfront location with restaurants and attractions 10 minutes away

The Sanibel Siesta on the
Beach sits directly on the Gulf of Mexico in a residential area with the
Sanibel Island Golf Club less than a 10-minute walk away. Around a five-minute
drive are the Dunes Golf and Tennis Club and Sanibel Historical Village
and Museum, while the Sanibel Island Lighthouse, Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum,
and restaurants are 10 minutes away. Turner Beach and J.N. Ding Darling
National Wildlife Refuge are 20 minutes from the property, while Southwest
International Airport is a 40-minute drive.

Rooms

Spacious two-bedroom condos with a cozy beach theme and full kitchens; some have superb ocean views

Spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom condos are individually decorated with homey decor that's a bit dated, but pleasant, with floral bedspreads and curtains, plus wicker and wood furnishings. Tropical
artwork hangs on pastel-colored walls throughout the units, while living rooms have
tropically-patterned armchairs and couches. Dining rooms have
wood tables and chairs with large sliding glass doors that fill the spaces with natural light, while
fully-equipped kitchens provide dishwashers, ranges, toasters, coffeemakers,
microwaves, and full-size refrigerators. Wicker or wood chairs reside at the
breakfast bar and some kitchens have granite countertops and stainless steel
appliances. Colorful bedrooms feature tropical or floral comforters, tan carpets, and mid-tone wood or wicker
furniture. Flat-screen TVs hang on the walls and some have huge walk-in
closets. Bathrooms are standard with granite-topped vanities and shower/tub combos, but some have walk-in rainfall showers. White Marble and Ocean
Mist toiletries are provided, but all housekeeping costs extra. All units also have screened-in
porches with seating and beautiful views of either the garden or pool, while
some offer spectacular ocean views. Each unit has a private attached
garage as well.

and shuffleboard courts are offered as well. Wi-Fi and parking are free, and there are bike rentals for a fee as well as laundry facilities. There is no on-site business center or restaurant, but the condos offer full kitchens.
