The newly updated beach bar area is the standout: gorgeous, inviting, and the perfect place to unwind with great live music drifting through the salt air. Now, yes... there's sand everywhere. But you're on a beach, so it's kind of like finding glitter after Christmas--it comes with the territory. The only real hiccup during our stay was the AC. We had to ask twice at the front desk before someone came to take a look, and we spent the first day and a half trying to convince ourselves we "run warm." Once it was fixed, all was well, but a quicker response would've made the stay even smoother. Overall, a lovely resort with fresh upgrades and a stellar beachfront atmosphere--just a little TLC away from being truly top-notch.

I would give it an excellent rating were it not for the rudeness we experienced from one employee…read more Our check in clerk was rude when we checked in as we asked about veteran discounts and tried to find the best combination of 'perks' that would reduce the price of our stay. Maybe that comes off as cheap, but don't blame the player blame the game. I didn't create the game. After check-in the room was very nice with a beautiful view. Breakfast was done very well and was tasty. Of course the gulf beach and easy access were the star of the show. When exchanging beach towels we were asked our room number even though we had just deposited our towels in the hamper and were wearing our resort bracelets. This was odd and appeared to be intentionally degrading, but ya know, some people. It was also the clerk who had checked us in the night we arrived. Poor girl has a gripe with someone for something I am unaware, I'm sure.

Absolutely love this hotel. This was our first time back since hurricane ian. The service we…read morereceived from front desk and most staff was amazing. The managers were so attentive and every time we passed by checked in on us to see what activities we had done or suggest new activities for us to do. We loved the kayaking and paddle boards - also rented jet skis 2 separate days. Getting day passes for additional guests was super easy. Love the ease of the bracelets doing everything, being the key, room charge, proof we belong - super easy for everyone to keep track Of! The complimentary breakfast was "ok" nothing spectacular, but still decent. The guy who collected the towels by the pool (seemed like a manager/lead) was rude every single day - to the point we waited to take our towels back a few times to avoid another interaction. We will definitely be back!

The entire area was clean, right on the beach, and the staff was friendly everywhere we went. The resort offers a ton of amenities: free kayaks, bikes, paddleboards, lounge chairs, and umbrellas. They also have paid options like fishing charters and other nearby excursions. There are three pools total -- two family pools and one adults‑only pool -- plus a couple of hot tubs. Our room was amazing. We were on the first floor with a perfect view of the beach. The adults‑only pool was right in front of our balcony, so we could relax, listen to the music, or join the trivia games happening throughout the day. The room itself was spacious and included a kitchenette with a stove, which made it easy to cook if we wanted to. You can stay busy here or do absolutely nothing -- we chose the "chill" route. There are two restaurants and a bar on the property, but if you want more options, you can walk about 15-30 minutes (rough estimate) or drive 2 mins (fyi paid parking) to the main strip with plenty of shops and restaurants. The front desk also told us about a trolley that runs for $0.75 each way or $2.00 for an all‑day pass. Everything was close by, we didn't get in our car until it was time to head home. We'll definitely be coming back. It's a little on the pricier side, but with everything included -- and probably more that I'm forgetting -- it's absolutely worth it.

We had 2nd floor right on the beach with a nice lanai. I could lay on the couch and see the ocean. They also had a nice little courtyard with a 3 burner Weber grill. I would walk across the street to Publix everyday and buy something to grill for dinner. It kept costs of food way down. They also had a great tiki bar right on beach with 2 little tiki huts on the sand. A few palm trees on their beautiful piece of beach. It was just more than I expected and at a good price. I would definitely recommend.

They were so respectful of the guests and kept our tables immaculately cleared. Access to the island by boat was a surprise and thoroughly enjoyable. Plus, the captain and boat crew were focused on ensuring patrons had a positive experience by slowing for bird and dolphin sightings and their willingness to take family pictures. In addition, our room was incredible with three balconies and two amazing views. The gym was also nice; all the machines were clean and working, plus it was well equipped. For such a fancy hotel, I was quite surprised there was nowhere to find water. I expected a fruity water station somewhere near the entry, a standard in high-end hotels today. I was also surprised the concierge could not provide a running map. Even with the local construction, the path right out the front door is nice and separated from traffic. I found the run to Target (for a cool coffee drink) was perfect for a 5-miler. Surely the 10-mile option would include even more treats. Having the front doors opened every time anyone approached the front of the hotel was a nice touch.

****WARNING**** PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING THIS HOTEL - MARCH 2022…read more I've never been so disgusted and displeased with the state of a hotel room in my life. Especially in the era of the pandemic where every single business/service is toting an extra level of cleanliness and sanitation. It's like the Wyndham Garden Inn Fort Myers Beach chose to do the opposite. I've stayed in old, "cheap", no frills hotel rooms all my life and I can handle old with minimal amenities. I can't handle dirt and stains and filth and bugs in a hotel room I am paying close to $500 per night for. There were stains on every single piece of upholstery in the hotel room. Black dirt/dust along all the baseboards and light switches. Black dirt/dust on and in the AC unit. Bugs crawling around the window sills that were covered in dirt and dust. Dust covering every hard surface. I don't understand why they didn't bother to wipe them down? Some pieces of furniture looked like a dog chewed on it for a few hours. The noise from the live band that played nightly until 9 or 10 PM could have been tolerated but the uncleanliness of the room ruined that for me too. Honestly, maybe they hoped the band would be so loud and obnoxious that you wouldn't want to spend time in the room and by the time you returned back after the band and drunk bar goers left you'd be too tired to notice, or complain. I spent about 15 minutes in the room before I decided it was uninhabitable and went to the front desk to let them know I would not be staying there. The front desk said he couldn't do anything about it, I would still be charged (almost $500 per night, remember?) and that the manager would call me on Monday to sort it out. It's now Wednesday at 5PM and no phone call or email. I've even called the hotel once to follow-up. I was once again brushed off. Save yourself the trouble and hassle that I have gotten roped into. I read reviews before booking but admittedly did not read them super closely. The overall review score seems OK but something has happened recently. Something has changed and changed for the worse and most recent reviews are negative. I'm not sure what has gone wrong. New management, not enough staff???? Whatever it is, something needs to change. I hardly ever post negative reviews like this (check my profile) but the state of this hotel room was atrocious and I want others to be aware before you spend your hard earned money on a place like this. Do not give this hotel your business until they make REAL changes and actually make an effort to reach out and resolve the issues of their guests. At almost $500 per night, they should be able to afford to hire cleaning staff and room keepers. I've waited almost 6 days before posting this review to give the manager/Wyndham Garden Inn Fort Myers Beach a chance to reach out to me and make this right and they haven't.

Location, location, location. This hotel is right on beautiful Fort Myers Beach, making our 1 week…read morebeach vacation a perfect one. We walked with our beach stuff out of our room probably 10 feet before our feet first touched sand. Then it's probably 100 yards to the water (the beach is very wide there). The Pinchers Restaurant, more like a beach tiki bar with great food and drinks, was our fun, regular hangout every day we were there. Live music on the weekends. Wave runners are available for rent on the beach. The hotel rooms are nothing to brag about (probably a 3-star hotel room at any other location) but we were there to go to the beach, not to stay in the room. We were very pleased with everything about our stay.

Caper Beach Club  Unit C311…read more Dear Owners of C311, Your condo is spacious, comfortable, clean, functional, and lovely.  We regret staying at The Caper Beach Club 3/22-3/29/25.  According to Diana (front desk employee) my family and I are, 'bad customers'. We're bad customers because our 5 & 6 year old boys were playing basketball with a floating toy we brought from home. See picture. Diana told us that the toy violated a pool rule, but suggested our children and their new friends should play with that toy on the small grass area next to the standing water and service street. (By the way, it's gross to walk around standing water to enter/exit the pool area.) Here are the pool rules that are most challenging for families: -No inflatables -No flotations -No ball playing Seriously, at a pool?? What if your kid can't swim? Who wrote and approved these? The same people who collect 20% of all rental income for the building? Yep, those grumpy anti-kid patrol curmudgeons who complain to the front desk. They're unliked by the rest of the property owners, and obviously us renters who selected this location because it seemed like a good place for families. On 3/27 the whole building was displaced due to no electricity and no water. Unbelievable. They hung these notes on our doors. We understand that sometimes unfortunate things can occur. When we asked Diana about compensation, or discounted options for us to have lunch, etc. they told us they were not responsible and would doing anything for renters.  Diana told us we could use the pool during that time- BUT the condo owners we met at the pool told us the pool's electric filtration system will not work and to stay out of the pool. (The same outage situation occurred a just before our arrival.) Thanks to the folks at Pink Shell for giving my family a discounted rate for a day pass. We appreciate the Fort Myers Beach hospitality.  We support Fort Myers Beach. We were excited to visit again after a couple of missed years. Our favorite places are Bay to Beach, Salty Sam's Pirate Cruise, Nervous Nellie's, Junkaroo on the Beach and so many more.  We'll be back to Fort Myers Beach, but will not stay at Caper Beach Club again.

The inside is very clean, and it's nice that everything was recently renovated. They even have different pillow options- the first night my pillow height was too high, but I realized there was a thinner pillow, which I used the rest of my stay. The owners and employees are so friendly and always there (in person or by text) to answer questions or help. This place has everything you need: beach equipment, wagon, bikes, designated parking spot, even hydrocortisone cream. We had a car, but this place is perfect for those with no car. It's only a 5 minute walk to the closest beach, 12 min walk to the lighthouse beach (and a lot of beach parking on the island is not free). It's surrounded by good food- our favorite restaurant on the island (wickies) is just across the street, along with great ice cream. Just to the right is the deli where we got yummy bagels and coffee many times. I also prefer staying on this side of the island as it's much more cozy, small-town feel, and walkable than the other side and down by the beach resorts (we drove out to see). Our flight got cancelled on our last day and Joe was so accommodating with their equipment and outdoor space. My one very minor and personal opinion suggestion would be that the fluorescent bulbs made the room feel a bit blue and stark at night, if the bulbs had a yellow tint it would feel even more cozy. We can't wait to bring our kids when they're a little older and stay here again!
