Top West End Hotel Reviews

Blind Pass E103 - over 1500 sq ft ~ 8 person occupancy

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, great location!! Only issue was the floor was extremely dirty, there was a vacuum in the closet but no mop so we just vacuumed immediately upon arrival - no big deal! Will be back!"

End unit with extra windows. Steps to the beach, private beach access!

10/10 Excellent

"There was a pool view from this very nice condo. It is end unit on the road side of the building. Everything you need is available. We did food delivery from Walmart in Fort Meyers. Unfortunately, with the exception of three hours, we had rain and thunderstorms. We got to check out the beach for a little bit, but another storm was rolling in, it was very nice and so quiet. Typical shells, but I heard that after hurricane isias passed by, the shelling was amazing. We gave up after two days and went home, we live in north central Florida, so for us it worked out. Jill was amazing with communication."

"The view was beautiful! Condo is extremely nice. We had a couple issues and they were solved right away. Thank you for great communication. Property outside is a mess with construction. Woke us up early every morning. Once construction is completed this property will be A! Looking forward to visiting when it’s all done. Beds are comfortable and all you need is in the condo."

Rare Walkout Condo On Sanibel Beach

8/10 Good

"The condo was nice and clean and location was great. Our only complaint was that it smelled so strongly of mildew that we could smell it on ourselves after leaving the unit. After only three nights, we got home and had to wash all our clothes because everything in our bags smelled like mildew. Bummer."
