anchor inn: central sanibel

the anchor inn is a small motel and a collection of cottages in central sanibel. they have a small pool. they have a good location for those who want to explore the attractions of central sanibel island. like most southwest florida hotels prices are much higher during the winter tourist season.

south seas plantation island resort: luxury

the south seas plantation island resort is located on the northern tip of captiva island. this luxury resort has the advantage of being both on the ocean and bayside of captiva island. the south seas plantation offers all of the amenities of a first class resort. surprisingly this luxury property is an excellent value. in the off season rooms are priced as low as $ 149 per night single. like most southwest florida resort hotels the prices are much higher in the winter tourist season. i highly recommend this resort because of it's fabulous location and very good value.

Sandpiper Inn: Everything's broken >:(

In theory, this would be a great place to stay. 'in theory'.
It's a housekeeping unit with a full kitchen, living room, appliances and queen bed. They also have free bikes, a hammock and they are less than 1/2 mile from the beach.
Sadly, half the stuff was broken. Fan, broken. Coffee maker, broken. Door latch, broken. Oh, and when we got there, the bed was half made.

Still, the location was great and it is a quiet place.

Unique Quality: see above

Buttonwood Cottages: Excellent Place To Stay

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Buttonwood Cottages was an
excellent place to stay at in Sanibel ...
Sad to say, as of the summer of 2005
it is now closed for business ....
The hospitality will be missed

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unique Quality: Your stay had many plus sides to it that
you do not find at most the other places ....

2 Hot tubs you can use 24 hours a day ....
2 Kayaks you can use anytime ....
Bicycles to use anytime you want ....
Fishing poles to use anytime you want ....
All the beach items you could need that do
include: beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkling
gear, life vests for the beach and kayaks,
and even beach towels.

There was a nice table and chairs in the back
yard along with hammocks to lie in anytime
you want. You also have a BBQ grill to use
anytime you want. the cottage had a nice
screened in, furnished porch to sit out in
anytime you want ....

And the list goes on to include the inside
furnishings of the cottages.
Each was everything you could want or
need to live in, it was like your home away
from home ....

Buttonwood Cottage #2, (we moved): Porch of Buttonwood #2

Larger, with nice porch, but further from ocean. Also had a hot tub. Full kitchen, one bedroom and living and dining rooms.

Unique Quality: All porches seemed to be screened in, and bugs were pesky on the beach at night.
