Frommer's Review

A back-to-nature theme prevails at this beachside inn, in both the room decor and the grounds planted with native Florida foliage specifically designed to attract butterflies and hummingbirds. In fact, back-to-nature children's programs make this a great choice for eco-friendly families. Kids can go on shell safaris, nature walks, and dolphin watches. The hotel rooms and fully equipped two-bedroom, two-bathroom condominium apartments (the latter are some of Sanibel's most luxurious) have been renovated to look like a modern -- but warm -- beach house with bamboo floors, wicker furnishing, and great lighting. All units have screened porches to keep the relentless mosquitoes out. The award-winning Ellington's Jazz Bar and Restaurant offers seafood, steaks, pasta, and live music.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; heated outdoor pool; tennis courts; access to nearby health club; watersports equipment rental; bike rental; children's programs; limited room service; babysitting; laundry service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
