We've been coming here for years and it's always a great experience that we look forward to. The condos are slowly being updated so that they are very homey, but not so much that you want to spend all your time inside. The pool is still great, and the hot tub too. Honestly I can't think of anything that I don't like about the beach club.
Beautiful place. The timeshare was clean and cozy. Very beautiful view of the ocean. The furniture and bedding was very fitting for the beach setting. There is a pool and hottub and multiple grills around for use. Easy access to the beach (hreat shelling) and not far from good food and shopping options. Such a wonderful experience being on Sanibel Island.
I have been coming to SBC since it first opened. This is a perfect family getaway. Fabulous location right on the beach, a lovely two-mile walk to the Sanibel lighthouse. The comfortable two-bedroom units are newly renovated, and the property is beautifully landscaped and meticulously maintained. Pool, hot tub, tennis/pickleball courts, and bikes available for checkout. SBC staff are always very helpful. And of course, Sanibel Island offers abundant access to nature, with the Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge, Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation, and others keeping 2/3 of the island in conservation status. Oh, and the best shelling anywhere.
This place is great. Awesome location. Easy beach access. Giant hottub right off to the side. Helpful staff.
I've been going here for 40+ years. It hasn't changed alot. The last hurricane forced some businesses to close a lot the island. The resort had some major renovations from the storm but it was all for the better.
Been going here since I was a child. Love it here it's a 2nd home to me. Great views, nice relaxing and very cozy. All the people here are friendly from the staff to the other families staying there. They have lots of things to do on the property. From tennis, shuffleboard, volleyball, Beach front access, pool, spa, BBQ, free bike rentals, wifi, cable the office even has board games, puzzles and other things. Rooms have great views of the beach, full operating kitchen.
Best kept secret in Sanibel, I've been staying here for 30 years and I wouldn't stay anywhere else on the island, especially now that the place is brand new after the hurricane.
I came to visit a friend's family here and we spent a lot of time at the beach as well as the hot tub/spa and pool offered by the beach club. It was very spacious and not overcrowded at all. Also, the distance to the beach was in fact ideal and made it very easy to travel back and forth between beach, pool, and apartment.
A 3-minute walk from the beach, this relaxed resort is 3 miles from the Sanibel Lighthouse, and 5 miles from outdoor activities at the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
