NO DISHWASHER, so rewash everything before you use it. everything was greasy, guests are expected to wash all dishes, glasses, silverware, etc. and put it away before they depart. even though we brought our own chairs and umbrella for the beach, there are lots of umbrellas, chairs, beach toys to use & enjoy at your leisure. best part of this location is the HUGE beach. it is a walk to get to the shoreline, but so quiet, relaxing and void of people. like we had the whole beach to ourselves. the check in crew are SUPER friendly, always willing to help. also like the location, easy to get to bonita springs & naples to explore some other dining options besides the ones nearby. yes, the place is dated, but we were there for the sun & beach. rooms are meant to sleep, shower and store your stuff in. if you get pissy about decor, then stay home and enjoy your own house, it's a vacation, just go, enjoy yourself and don't get hung up on the minutia. i would stay here again, just because of the location!

Our room had a beach view, large screened off balcony with large outdoor table to enjoy morning coffee. Unit had a full kitchen, living room, washer and dryer, double twin beds in the kids room, 2 bath rooms, master bedroom was a good size. Both bedrooms had televisions. Grills at the poolside, great hours at the pool (7am-11pm). Small pool though, but goes deep (6ft). Jacuzzi is normal. Here's why only 3 stars. I thought it was rather strange that we needed to take out our own trash after our stay. Never had to do that before. Also, when I asked the front desk for two coffee packs, they were reluctant to give me a second pack. Told me they usually only start us with one. Kind of inconvenient. You mean you want me to walk all the way down here even when I already know I want two packs? It's coffee for crying out loud! Come on. That's petty. Other than those few annoyances, it was a cute place even though it was obviously older. Thankfully it didn't have a strong old scent (only in a few spots). The upkeep of the place is well handled. Oh, one more gripe! There's a bar at the pool. But it's inactive. The only time it was used was during their special hours of the day, and this only happened on Thursday, where you were allowed to order a small selection of frozen concoction that were pulled out of a cooler That's all

It was great to see dishwasher pods, dishwashing liquid, and laundry detergent sitting out for us to use. The kitchen is fully stocked with any dishes or cookware you could possibly need. There are also pool towels above the washing machine and extra blankets in the linen closet. The pool is well-maintained and there is plenty of seating on the deck. There are a couple gas grills on either side of the resort that are open for guests to use. The location is great as well! It's far enough from the downtown-ish area to have a bit of privacy, but not too far that you feel out of the loop. You can borrow a couple bicycles for free from the front desk in order to go explore shops and restaurants. What I especially love is the access to the beach. If you walk out of the resort toward the crosswalk and cross the street, there is a small path that takes you out toward the ocean. The clientele is very diverse in age, but overall Tropical Sands is a very family friendly resort. On the side of the building there are pool and beach toys that are free for guests to borrow. If you are on the bottom floor of the resort, the door handle of the screened-in porch is high enough that little kids probably won't be able to reach it and escape. (But you should still keep an eye on those kiddos!) It is important to note that there is no lifeguard on duty. The pool is six feet deep at the deepest point and three feet deep at the most shallow end. If you have kids, it's best not to leave them unattended. There is also a hot tub and a couple outdoor showers. Overall, I highly recommend this resort!

****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.

There wasn't a lot going on, even during the middle of summer. This isn't a resort. I would barely call it a hotel. We rented a suite which included several connected rooms. We had a full kitchen, large balcony and even a washer and dryer. If your looking for a quiet place to call home for a few weeks this would be ideal. The balconies are large and you could watch the subset everyday. But I would typically be looking for a place with ba little excitement. Drinks by the pool. Music. Restaurants. Private beaches etc. This place had none of that. Just a clean, quiet, boring place. Maybe your looking for that?

Everything you might need is close at hand. I'd definitely stay here again!

We had a gulf view 2 bedroom on the the 7th floor. The room comes with many amenities including practically anything you'd need in the kitchen except for a pizza pan! One watch out- the beach is a very far walk from the resort. Definitely not a great choice for those who cannot walk that far or need a bathroom near. Another big watch out - rooms on the north side of the building from about the 6th floor down have large palm trees obscure the view of the gulf!!! They rental chairs and umbrellas are convenient but are taken up very early around 2:30 pm - disappointing given the cost Our kitchen was flooded the 1st night by the upstairs apartment's ice maker waterline. It's just an unfortunate event but did waste a good part of our first day towel drying the floor and carpet. The front desk offered to dry vac it but we opted against it since we'd already got most of it blotted up. The front desk does a towel exchange for the pool towels which eliminates the nuisance of drying towels from the pool. We really enjoyed the grills and lovely landscaping. I would gladly stay again for the quality of everything.

Someone else noted on here that they always open the lobby doors for you, which is a nice touch. They also offered me a bottle of water or champagne, I believe it was, upon check-in, I did see the champagne and figured it was for people with status, but I guess not! -Lovely rooms with lots of space, I received one with two queen beds, even though I was just by myself. I also had a partial view of the pool. I ended up going to a lot of the rooms this trip because that's where my meetings were, and one of them had a really nice pool view and sitting area so that must've been a suite. -Pretty nice pool area. I walked around it my first night here and I finally got to use it on my third night. Do note that the lazy river area and waterslides all close at 6 PM, which made it difficult as my meetings usually went until five or 6 PM. There are maybe 5 pools including an adults pool (ages 17+). -Meeting spaces were all very nice but kinda spread apart ... a bit of a walk sometimes. CONS: -The shower in my room had very weak water pressure, I think because the knob that you turned to get it from bath to shower was not functioning correctly. (however: the bath tub was very nice ... one picky thing, though, the shampoo and conditioner and body wash are mounted on the wall so that's really difficult to use if you're taking a bath...) -You definitely need a car to get around (or Uber). I did DoorDash 2 of the 3 nights because of this. -On my last night doing DoorDash, the restaurant I ordered from didn't give me any utensils. I called the hotel restaurant to see if they could bring me some, and they said yes, but never did ... rather disappointing. This property was probably 4.5/5 from me so I'm rounding up to a 5, and I'd definitely stay here again. I'm pretty sure our conference rate was really reasonable as well, I believe it was $179 per night before taxes.

The property is beautiful and I loved the lazy river (except the inescapable waterfalls). I was…read morethere for a conference and was particularly impressed with Phil's events team. 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.
