10/10 Excellent
"Little black bugs on bedside table. I killed 5 of them. Also, there was always hair in the tub. When I arrived (Someone else’s). And my own after cleaning. One day the room wasn’t cleaned or fresh towels. I had run out of towels and called housekeeping at 4pm. She came and was very nice and cleaned my bathroom and got me towels. "

Relax and revel in a visit to one of the area’s most beautiful beaches, great for swimming, fishing and finding special seashells.

It’s not everyday you see dolphins inside Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge! These two made their way through a culvert. It reportedly has been at least 15 years since any were spotted this close to the road. (Very common off of the Sanibel beaches ) Happy feeding beautiful creatures 🐬 #wildlife #sanibel
