The location, the size of property. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable. They lent us sieves to search for shells and a boogie board for my children. Wish we could have stayed longer. They lost 15 buildings in the hurricane but they are still a fabulous place to stay.

Wonderful location, great sunrise and sunsets. No problems with mosquitoes in this apartment as they have a fine mesh which surrounds the balcony and the windows, Great bonus. Suggest when you go to the beach to wear oil on top of your sunscreen to stop the bugs from biting in the early evening. Apartment was well equipped with everything. Clean, comfy and spacious.It was good exercise climbing the stairs every day. Beautiful white sands.

The room is spotless clean, loved the towels and linen and the comfy mattress. The kitchenette was a HUGE plus. Right out the sliding glass doors was a lovely heated pool and out the front door was a porch with table and chairs. Across the street is beach access which on Sanibel is a premium amenity and the shells are huge. Everything is well kept and clean and inviting. Will definitely stay again when my travels take me to the lovely island of Sanibel.

Our stay at Tarpon Tale was wonderful! Joe was the perfect host- providing everything we needed- from bikes to umbrellas to beach towels- to have a restful beach week! The beach access was just a 5 minute walk- very convenient! The breakfast/ice cream shop across the street was an added bonus!

The hotel is right across the street from a beach access path, so access to the beach was great. Also, the bed was very comfortable and for an efficiency room there was plenty of room and I liked the kitchenette and full tub.

This resort was one of the few now opened 15 months after Hurricane Ian. There was nothing at all wrong with the facility; it was just not the cottage like facility we had patronized for the previous 27 years. Our “resort” was the Castaways. Hurricane Ian removed that completely from existence. Sanibel island Beach Resort is a hotel with direct access to the beach.
