We had an excellent 3 night stay at the Lighthouse II room— it was very nicely decorated and with tasteful furnishings. The room has been redone/updated to a more modern beach vibe look (the website’s room photos are outdated). This was a pleasant surprise! The room and bathroom was spotless. Excellent value for our stay with so many amenities, all of which we used! Outdoor shower (which can be used even after check-out if you decide to go to the beach and have a later flight), beach towels, beach umbrella, beach chairs, beach cart, private furnished patio, backyard seating, hammocks, luggage storage (before check-in and after check-out), utensils, tableware, microwave, mini fridge and coffeemaker. The most used amenity were the free bikes! We used these every day since we didn’t have a car rental. To get to farther destinations, we used a local taxi company, Island Taxi, to get around. The Lighthouse Beach park is a 3 min bike ride away, as well as another beach just a 5 min walk away. Joe was super accommodating and even let us keep a copy of a laminated Sanibel seashell guide! The office even has bug spray for guest use— so useful since we used up all our bug repellent wipes. If we return to Sanibel, we will only stay at Tarpon Tale Inn! Thank you Joe, for making our first visit to Sanibel a relaxing and enjoyable one!
