What a great location on Sanibel Island, what a terrible experience. We rented through the Sundial and paid extra to make sure that we rented a property that was contained in their rental program thinking they would only allow condos that were in good shape to be in their rental program. Billed and priced as a luxury resort and experience,... More

Upon our arrival of our 2 bedroom condo for 3 adults, we noticed the botchy, stained carpeting and 2 burned out lights. Upon reporting the burned out lights, the light bulbs were replaced. Condo was large as described. Furniture was adequate, however the second bedroom furniture finish is worn and needs refinished or replaced. After traveling all day, we each... More

Your stay at the Sundial Beach Resort can be done one of three ways: Rent through Sundial and get access to all facilities at the resort without additional cost, BUT you WILL pay more than the other options . You can look for websites of owners on the internet or contact Rental Real Estate companies to rent individual units at... More

We had a 1 bedroom condo (G407). The rooms were clean, bedding comfortable. Ample room for 3 adults. The bathroom was small but up to date. Our unit overlooked the garden, but the beach was visible from our screened lanai. We were a short walk to the beach and main building. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food... More

Views and walks on the beach sublime. MBR had a double bed in it when king was confirmed. Offered us another unit a day in to vacation (which only came about after we kept complaining), but this took us far away from family, so no go. Front desk was argumentative about the problem saying that it was our travel agent's... More

We were just looking for a three night getaway, where we could rest or do activities; something right on the beach, so we could see the sunset and with a kitchen, so we didn't have to go out for all our meals... This was perfect. There are four of us and so we rented a two bedroom, two bath unit... More

We have stayed at Sundial several times. When the kids were younger the beach and pool were enough. Now with teens there isn't a lot of "action" unless they play tennis or if you go off the resort to Ding Darling Reserve or other activities. The suites are variable and some are quite outdated. Hard to know what you will... More

As many reviews have stated, it is true that the rooms here are hit and miss. Some of the rooms are owned by the resort and some are owned by private owners. Room P-302 is very large and luxurious with granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances in a gourmet kitchen & large flat screen tv's, cable & DVD players in... More
