Beachview Cottages is so relaxing and quiet. There is nothing going on after 8pm. There are bikes to rent and the staff is very friendly. The local grocery store has everything you need. The people are pleasant and seem to really enjoy themselves. We stopped at Publix on the way in from Fort Myers but were pleasantly surprised at the... More

I stayed at the Beachview Cottages with a group of fellow doxie lovers who met on Facebook. We all had brought our dogs with us and felt very welcomed. The cottages are old but were very clean. The pet friendly units are completely tiled which was great with dogs! Had a great time!

Just back from a long weekend solo getaway at Beachview, with a rather mixed reaction. The good: Location-the cottages are not only on the quiet end of Sanibel, the complex is laid out so everything faces that wonderful beach. I stayed in unit #18, which is a second floor in a triplex. Even located closest to the office/road, I could... More

Love this place! Right on the beach. Perfect weekend getaway!! Perfect size room for 2. We brought all our food and whatever kitchen utensils we thought we may need but they provide some as well. Not fancy but clean.

This was our third stay at Beachview on Sanibel. We love these pretty coloured cottages right on the beach. They have got a bit more pricey and we would have liked a few more bits of kitchen ware - the appliances are all new and great but we only had literally 2 plates, cups, bowls, nothing to make a salad...

We had 3 nights to spend on Sanibel and wanted a casual, beachfront experience--we got just that at Beachview Cottages. Just a short walk down the lane to access the beach, and along the way meet friendly folks and well-behaved dogs, grab a beach lounge chair or pail and shovel for shelling, think about what to grill for dinner, read...

We spent our 17th Wedding Anniversary this weekend and stayed at Beachview Cottages. It's back to the basics and we loved it. The cottages are a walking distance to the beach and everything is well kept and clean. The best part was we were able to bring out poodle. We will be back again.

This is not a five star luxury resort. If you are looking for modern and new, look elsewhere. This is perfect for those looking for simple, clean accommodations close to the beach. We stayed in cottage #20 and it was perfect for the two of us. The unit was clean and comfortable. There was a small screen porch which was... More

Overall, Beachview cottages is a wonderful place to stay on the beach on Sanibel. One of the few pet-friendly beaches in Florida, Sanibel is a wonderful place to take your dog. Beachview Cottages is one of two (I think) hotels on the beach that accept dogs. The staff are very accommodating and friendly. My only concerns are: 1) there is... More

This was the 3rd place we stayed during our vacation to the Ft. Meyers Beach area. We were so excited to find this gem online and after the first 2 places being amazing, we were nervous about this one. But to our surprise this place was just fabulous! It is the cutest little tropical cottage lane, where each cottage has... More
