We had a lovely family vacation at this resort. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach, and the grounds are beautifully landscaped. The rooms were clean and had everything we needed, although some could use a bit of updating. The service was helpful, but we did have a few small complaints about amenities. Overall, a great stay, though it wasn't perfect.

I’ve come to love this place! My stay was wonderful with a beautiful, clean property that's truly relaxing. The location is perfect for someone looking to enjoy both the beach and nature. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. However, while the amenities are great, I wish the pool was a bit larger—it was enjoyable, but small. Overall, it feels like a home away from home!

My stay at Sanibel Moorings was absolutely delightful. We loved our beautifully decorated condo, surrounded by a garden bursting with colorful flowers. The pools were a treat, and having the beach right at our doorstep made everything even better. The free kayak and canoe rentals were a fantastic bonus. However, the only minor downside was that it felt a bit crowded during peak times, so an Olympic-sized pool might be a great addition.

My family and I recently stayed at Sanibel Moorings, and while there were some highlights, it didn't quite meet our expectations. The resort is beautifully landscaped and offers access to both a tranquil beach and a fun dock area, which is great for kayaking. However, the beach was affected by red tide during our visit, and the pool area felt overcrowded. Overall, a mixed experience that I wouldn't be rushing to repeat.
