Nestled in a prime location with convenient interstate access and surrounding dining options, the Crowne Plaza Ft. Myers Gulf Coast captivates many travelers with its cleanliness and well-kept facilities. Guests have called out the heated pool and enjoyable breakfast, although opinions on the buffet selection and room modernity vary.
The hotel's serene atmosphere and modern rooms with comfortable beds receive praise, as does the courteous service. However, some guests feel the pricing could be more reflective of the offered value.

Hotel's Favorite
Great place to stay. The rooms are clean and nice. The lobby is really nice and pleasant, best of all we love the staff. From the front desk to the bar staff, they are great. We have stayed here a few times and the bartenders are always lots of fun to chat with, especially Sam and Noah. We highly recommend this place.

I felt very comfortable here with my family for a baseball tournament. The staff at check in over our five day stay was very accommodating. Nigel, Stephen, Dave and Derrick were just some of the names of the great staff that helped us out all week. Weather we needed towels for the pool or some extra toiletries they were attentive to help us. Breakfast downstairs was not expensive and the selection we needed to fill everyone’s taste buds.

Phenomenal customer service from each member of the staff, everyone was personable and greeted me by name during every interaction. The property is truly flawless, and I appreciate the heavy focus on cleanliness and detail from the staff. What surprised me the most was that housekeeping serviced my room every single day, no questions asked which is hard to find these days coming out of a pandemic. It was nice exploring during the day and coming to a clean and comfortable room! The food and bar service/selection was outstanding! Instead of the traditional Taco Tuesday that we are all fond of they offer Prime Rib Tuesdays at a price and quality you cannot beat. You really have everything you need all in one place. After exploring the area, be sure to stop by the bar and enjoy a cocktail and great conversation with Carrie, Dylan, and Marco. If you have any questions about the area Derrick, Ray, and Donovan will always help in any way that they can greet you with a smile. Be sure to check out this gem of a property!

Wow! “Best in Class, phenomenal, flawless and a gem of a property!” Your review is better than any advertising we could buy. Our housekeeping team takes pride in their work, and we made a commitment a year ago that we were going to clean every room, every day. Other hotels, as you noted, hide behind conditions far too long as a way of saving money. We have shared your review with the team members you recognized, and they feel honored that they shaped your experience in such a positive way. Hope to see you soon.

This hotel was very nice. The staff was friendly and efficient they even remembered my extra pillows and blankets. It was very clean and we often saw staff doing extra cleaning when multiple people were in the same room. The food was good but our favorite part was the outdoor fireplace and lounge area we spent most of our time relaxing and enjoying this area!

I’ve been here now 3 times this month and I have not had a pleasant experience with Nigel at the front desk each time. I feel compelled to write a bad review (towards him specifically) because there is nothing else bad to say about my stays here. 1st issue is Nigel doesn’t make eye contact when anyone that walks in the lobby. 2nd he didn’t tell the EXCELLENT van drivers (Bill & Paul!) that I had called for a pickup from dinner across the street and ended up waiting 1 hour and 18 min (with 2 calls) to be picked up. On my third stay he never told the van drivers that I was outside at the airport to be picked up and waited over 40 minutes for a pickup- only to be told that he ‘did tell them’ which was a lie. And the 3rd issue with Nigel is that he doesn’t make anyone feel welcome, he makes them feel like a burden. I needed my room key re-keyed and you would’ve thought I asked him to build me a new room with his frustrated reaction. Poor customer service on Nigel’s part- FANTASTIC customer service by the rest of the Guest Services Staff and especially Paul and Bill the GREAT van drivers! I’ll stay here again for sure but I’ll avoid Nigel and I encourage you to avoid him too.

Thank you for submitting your review. We will certainly share your kudos of Paul and Bill with them. We are constantly performing training of guest service skills and will refresh those with our Front desk Evening Manager, although. quite frankly, we normally receive very positive feedback about him. Thank you again for your nice words such as "Great Hotel."

A special thank you to Stephanie Rebhan and the events team. We've been working with them for the past two years hosting events where people are flying in from all over the country and we park it at the hotel. We originally selected their location because of the team. I was snooping around the hotel when one of the cleaning staff stopped me and asked how she could help and immediately connected me to Stephanie. We were their first post-Covid event and I've just been incredibly grateful for their professionalism, flexibility, and just being awesome. The hotel is easy to get to from the hotel, well maintained, nice rooms, and the event rooms are great. The most we've had is about 60 live but we've also hosted online events from the hotel. Highly recommended for all you out-of-town events people. The shopping and access to restaurants, business supplies, and shopping across the street was also extremely convenient.

We recently stayed at the Holiday Inn for the Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) graduation weekend. We were greeted by Reynaldo at the front desk (he was there all weekend, Mother's Day weekend!) who was always willing to help. He even authorized a late check out on our departure date which was much appreciated as we have a long travel day ahead of us.
All the staff were very attentive, both in the dining room/bar area as well as those who keep the rooms. Rooms were comfortable and clean and there was never any noise despite it being a busy weekend.
They have a shuttle service from the airport, which is always attractive when choosing where to stay, the staff was punctual, friendly and although the distance was short, the music was exceptional. It was a good choice for a short stay.

Dear 1DRM, we have a longstanding relationship with FGCU and welcome students and parents with open arms (and special rates too!) Rey was thrilled to see that he exceeded your expectations, and we have shared your comments with the rest of our team. Thank you especially for the "clean" comments, you will find that word used in almost all of our reviews, because we have a fantastic housekeeping team working diligently every day to ensure guest comfort.

I recently hosted a three day harmonica workshop with 30 attendees, I had the pleasure of working with Nicole Logan and Stefanie Rebhan (sales and beverage managers), with people flying in from around the country, Nicole and Stefanie diligently kept tabs on the progress of reservations and accommodations to make sure my mind was at ease. Kudos to them and the entire staff at the Holiday Inn Fort Myers Airport @ Town Center. This was my 2nd annual Paradise Coast Harmonica Workshop at this location and I can’t wait to do it again in 2022! Thanks so much!

Being a IHG Spire Elite Member with well over 500K in points and traveled the US, this full serviced HI is by far the best I have stayed at... I recommend all Perfect Game tournament guest to stay here if you are playing at Jet Blue or Terry Park.
Ms. Nicole Logan is amazing and one of the best Team Sales Mangers in the game and is a high recommendation from me and my sports recruiting business. The front desk, the servers, the bartenders, the cleaning staff and maintenance guys are top notch at this place of stay... I highly recommend and will visit more often when in the area...

We booked an Airbnb and where given the wrong dates by the renter... After franticly searching for another location, we stopped in to check the last minute rates. Nigel the manager was extremely sympathetic to our experience and really took care of us. The hotel has live music, a great pool, excellent patio and a very friendly staff. This hotel is within a short distance of all the hot spots, beaches, restaurants, and family activities. We didn't mind the added drive to the beaches... You wont be disappointed. It worked out much better than we anticipated and we're grateful for the experience and accommodation.
