We stayed here 4 nights in an oceanfront with a king bed and fold out couch and loved it. The room was well appointed, the staff was incredibly friendly and we especially enjoyed the smaller nature of the property (only like 30 rooms total). The pool was very nice and they had complimentary lunges and umbrellas on the beach (from... more

we made reservations for song of the seas beachfront suite for my husband and myself as well as our 2 teenagers. What a mistake. The room was outdated and dirty. There was old gum stuck to the floor in the main room. The furnishings were dated. The bed squeaked and was squeezed into a very small room where you could... more

Our week in Sanibel (5/17-24) was the best. More rainy than what we expected, but it did not dampen our fun and activities. We found "Song of the Sea" to be very quaint and cozy. Staff were friendly and helpful. We so appreciated the complimentary breakfast each morning on the patio. The menu offered lots of variety, although Belgian waffles... more

Stayed on island a few times in the past and like to try different places to stay. So i went online to check out resorts and hotels on the island and after searching properties decided to go with the song of the seas. We are always leary of booking online because of how places can fabricate their properties this one... more

We stayed at Song of the Sea for 5 nights in May. We're in our 20's and while we typically enjoy luxurious hotels, we opted for Song of the Sea over any others (including South Seas) for the smaller quaint feel. We also considered the other properties associated with Song of the Sea and hands down, this was the best... more

Sanibel Island is idyllic because it hasn't been developed by the large chain hotels. Song of the Sea is an "old Florida" small hotel, and is typical of the friendly, bespoke, low-key character of the island (dont expect glitz). The hotel is right on the beach with wonderful views of the sea and a small pool (you can also use... more

My wife and I stayed here for two nights in April 2009 on a last minute trip. It is right on the beach and the staff is SUPER. The manager is very friendly and bent over backwards to do extra things for us. Our room faced the pool and had a screened in balcony. The room had a full size... more

We have stayed at Song of the Sea several times and are always happy with our stay. We love the quiet romantic atomosphere(usually mostly couples). The staff are friendly and accomodating and we enjoy the included breakfast(great waffles) in the charming courtyard. The free bikes are another great bonus and we like how they set up the beach chairs and... more

We're a family of five - a teenage boy and two pre-teen girls. We had two rooms, overlooking the pool. When we first arrived at the hotel, I was a bit concerned about how far the hotel might be from the "action" and whether it was too low-key, but I needn't have spent a moment worrying - it was perfect!... more
