Sanibel Bowman's Beach Hotels

"This resort was fantastic! The bathroom body wash soap was the worst part of this place - if they upgrade it to something with more suds that would be perfect. The suite was amazing and brand new. Beach towels were available to rent but everything else was included. Umbrellas were also available for renting. The island was great for shelling, found more shells here than at Bowman Beach. The pool was relaxing and well maintained. The staff were attentive and friendly each time we worked with them. Linens are exchanged rather than housekeeping coming by routinely which was nice when you ran out of towels. Top floor observation deck was beautiful for sunsets."

"View from room was amazing. "

"This would’ve been an absolutely perfect visit, but there were 3 issues that were quite significant: check-in, unit temperature, and TV Wi-Fi. But first, the good stuff! Location, location, location! We were a short bike ride away from the nature preserve, animal rehab facility, shell museum and aquarium, and popular beaches. There was also an amazing beach access at the end of the street. The unit was pristine and efficiently thought out to maximize space. We also greatly appreciated the rental credit which essentially paid for our rental bikes. The not so great…When we arrived after driving all day, we could not access the unit. We were grateful that, even though it was after hours, the property manager picked up very quickly, and after 10 minutes of troubleshooting, finally helped us access the key box. When we got into the unit, the room was unbearably hot. The thermostat read 72 and the instructions said we could not go down any further due to limitations on the system. We finally had to call the property manager the next day and it turned out they were reading 74 so they adjusted it which we greatly appreciated. Finally, we were eager to take advantage of the full array of stations on the TV but the Wi-Fi was so spotty, shows would freeze every few minutes. We finally gave up and logged into our own Netflix account. We would love to come back to this property again!"

"We enjoyed our time in Sanibel. The host was great and very responsive to any of our questions. Would definitely stay here again. Loved the close access to the pool and very short walk to the beach. We hope to come back again. "

"The place was amazing and the host was very gracious."

"Great location. Very clean. Would stay again."

"Great house with plenty of space and outdoor amenities. The cleanliness of the house wasn’t ideal with lots of dead bugs and alive bugs that would wake us up at night. Also safety measures at this house are not good with no gate to the pool from the deck. Also no gate to dock that has a huge drop off and dangerous Rocks and water Below. Wouldn’t stay here again with a family due to this and wouldn’t recommend to families to stay here. Basic safety features that all houses with pools and docks have are essential. "

"Beautiful house ! Immaculately clean! Lovely pool but the hot tub was cold the entire time and the elevator only worked sporadically. Would be lovely to have a large table and umbrella out by the pool."

"great view of wildlife, "
