    Con's: Coffee maker (makes weak coffee) Amenities were right across the street. Unless you book for bay view, expect really, no view. Great place to sleep. Recommendations: Replace coffee makers with single serve Keurig's

    Had a wonderful time, but felt that our stay should’ve included parking. We had to pay $20/day to park in hotel parking lot. Felt that should be a given for hotel guests.

    The location was probably the best part. We spent most of our time at the beach and walking around to nearby bars and restaurants. Everything was within walking distance, and we never had to move the car all weekend. If you’re looking for a clean, convenient, affordable place close to everything, this is a great option for a weekend getaway or staycation. I would definitely recommend it.

    This was the only problem breakfast did not start until 8:30 in the morning. we are early risers. This did not work for us. So we were unable to take advantage of the free breakfast. Overall, the room was clean, comfortable the air conditioner worked without any problems. The linens were fine. Hairdryer was available. No complaints on the room at all. Parking was available right in front of the door. We were in the rooms across the street from the main hotel, which was not a problem at all. They leave problem we had was the breakfast started late for us at 8:30 in the morning all in all, great one day stay in my favorite state ?

    The horrible, rude chair rental people in front of the hotel. They’re very rude very aggressive. I probably won’t come here again because of the horrible rude chair rental people which I know is probably separate from the hotel

    I was extremely happy with my stay , love my view , the place was just completely remodeled and is beautiful. Basically only have 2 things I think could be addressed. They could put some cutlery in the units maybe some plastic glassware plates?! Also those rubber wristbands that are the key fobs, make them in a couple sizes, mine was so large I have a smaller size wrist I had to wear it on my ankle!! I honestly wasn’t a fan of having to take off to open the door each time. Women do have smaller wrists.

    The hotel room was exceptionally clean and recently renovated. The floor plan was well thought out and had everything we needed. The view over the canal was great! The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were spacious. There are only a few things I would add/change to make it even better (full length mirror or at least one other mirror besides the bathroom, more bathroom hooks including shower) With all the facilities to use at Lani Kai this is the perfect location and price! My only complaint would be the better specify which rooms have a view of the canal. We had a large party and based on the photos online, we assumed all of the rooms had canal views which was not the case.

    Staff renting umbrella and chair do NOT work for Lani Kai and guests pay full rates. Yep, $27 a day to lay in the sand in front of your hotel. Oh and they control when the umbrella goes up or down to wind. Hit me in the closing on my neck which has a 14” steel plate on my spine. My cane was with me. Disabled guests are not accomodated. Skip this property, and Fort Myers. Jimmy Buffett cant save this place.

    Don’t do it. Normally I’m not one to leave such a bad review. But I wish I would’ve had a review like this so I wouldn’t have booked it. I was in town for one night for business. Online it looked decent. Maybe not a typical pick for me. But it looked nice. I was wrong If the sheets didn’t look clean and it wouldn’t have only been sleeping there for one night. I would’ve left. And honestly I still should’ve. The rooms were something else, not like the photos showed. A window ac unit that was loud with jank foam around it. Little tiny tiny bugs plus the much larger something I killed on my sheets when I woke up. The pool is across the main road, it had so much stuff floating in it, a dirty diaper just laying poolside with no diaper age children around. No back on the remote covering the batteries, I mean I could go on and on. My fave local pizza place wasn’t open so I opted to go upstairs to the island view. Grossest waste of a $17 pizza I’ve ever attempted to eat. Upon checkout I walked all the way over to the office and explained the situations and how uncomfortable I was and she told me nothing could be done because I booked through orbitz. Steer clear. Don’t book t

    We enjoyed our stay. Room was clean. No water pressure and the bed kinda dipped in the middle but room was great overall. The only amenity we used was the pool and it was clean and didn’t reek of chlorine thankfully. The only thing I didn’t care for was the fact that you can’t walk around with anything to eat or drink that wasn’t purchased at the resort. We will definitely stay again!

    Cutesy Inn with an acceptable dated beach vibe. Amenities connecting with sister Hotel Lani Kai across the street are incredibly necessary. But the full package gives decent 4/5 rating for me. Constantly battled ants. But room service was SPEEDY, and very accommodating. Great location.

    What a fun place to stay. It’s a party every day at the beach with a DJ also games and entertainment. If you’re not into that type and prefer a quiet spot this is not your place. The location is great with plenty to do nearby. During the holiday break traffic was terrible it was much easier to walk places than drive. Rooms are average and the property is dated but fairly comfortable. The staff was frequently cleaning stairs, walkways and public areas throughout the day.

We enjoyed having all the Lani Kai has to offer with restaurants, bars, pool, entertainment & the beach but enjoyed it being a bit quieter at night at The Bay Inn.

    I was reluctant at first due to some prior reviews, but I had a great experience at this property. I reserved the full kitchen suite, and it was fairly well-equipped and clean. TVs were nice, with the living room operating off a fire TV streaming type service and the bedroom with full cable (mounted on ceiling above bed). Room and bedding was very comfy, and there was plenty of hot water and okay pressure for shower. Fridge and freezer worked great and having the kitchen saved me at least $150.00 by limiting meals out. I was at the Bay Inn in 1203, but it was still very convenient to the main campus across the street. Restaurant choices were nice, but a couple of them were only open once in a while, and the bar with pizza was only open day I arrived and closed rest of the time. Security was plentiful and there was no craziness that I observed. DJ with live music was nice. All staff, including check-in and check-out were very pleasant. Had one small issue with very loud bass-vibrating music coming from neighbor (outrageously loud), but after a polite call to front desk, they quickly turned it down and no further issues. The rear deck area that sits on a canal was quiet and a nice place to sit (lounge chairs provided). The property does sell its unused spaces to the public for parking, but on one day, it sold all the spaces while I was grocery shopping. Only slight inconvenience till they rearranged cars. I would stay again.

    Would have been 5/5, but overall was very disappointed with out thin the walls are. We could hear EVERYTHING. Whether it was the partiers outside or the family near us with - their daughter's name was Hannah based on how many times we heard her crying, yelling, and being told to stop doing something by name - through the walls. Also, I had almost forgotten two other things. 1) the outlets did not charge our phones / ipad very well at all - items would die while using & charging. 2) the hot water was not very consistent, tried taking a bath few times and couldn't get hot water long enough to fill up the bath tub.

    My room booking was messed up so had to move my room multiple times. Rooms were not cleaned every day unless you specifically requested it, which they didn't tell you until your room wasn't cleaned for the day. Sheets were not changed during week. Room was not swept as there was sand on room floor all week. They did not seem motivated to make things correct with my room booking, like it was my problem not theirs.

    Property is ok. If it wasn’t affiliated with Lani Kai it wouldn’t be worth it. Mattresses are horrible. Getting housecleaning even worse. We were there three days before we got clean towels, which we had to ask for. Three days later we were asking again. Bed changed once. Toilet never cleaned and the water pressure is horrible.

    Not much to like. The room was worn out. The window a/c was loud and did not keep both rooms cool. The bathroom was not clean, stains in the shower. There was sand in the bed when we first used it. And it wasn't from us.

    The suite on the back overlooked the inland waterway - which is lovely - and was quiet and a lovely place to have coffee on the balcony in the morning and evening.

    It's a beach hotel. didn't have a bay side view, but had a beach view, across the street. Walking distance from everything. We will be going back there for sure. One of the best parts of this place, there are no room "keys." they are a water resistant bracelet. No worries about loosing a key!

    The location is amazing. You can walk to a large amount of restaurants and bars. The beach is clean and easy access to parasailing, and jet skiing. Night life entertainment is A with all the different things to do at the Lani Kai and then all the surrounding establishments. We go back as often as possible and stay here every time.

    The property itself was nice but we were put in a room that had black mold on the ceiling and the ceiling in the kitchen had a bad leak. When I called the desk they told me they would leave a note on my account but nothing was offered as an exchange in rooms or any refund. The floors were also dirty. Otherwise everything else was fine.

    When you stay here it is for the location of the property. It is located close to all the bars, restaurants and stores. The actual property is beat up and not taken care of very well. The older woman that checked me in had the personality of a dog with rabies.

    Another complaint is that the large beach area in front of hotel is totally full with their own rental umbrellas which does not give room for people to put our umbrella and chairs. Other than that, the hotel is fun, the pool is nice and is close walk to the downtown area with restaurants and attractions

    It's a nice place. Although the pool was closed for a while due to lighting and the ocean water was dirty.

    The room was clean, however, we didn't know we weren't staying in the main building. We were assigned a building across the street in not so good surroundings. What made it worse, we checked in late at night, which we alerted them of due to the Key West ferry coming back at 10pm. Very scary place with people shouting and having parties. Some people were suspicious looking.

    Great place to stay. Perfect room for 4 people. Great location right across the street from the beach and the main resort is right across as well and offers activities for both kids and adults making it the ideal place.

    Bay Inn is across the street from the main property, quieter and themed very beachy and cute. Very comfortable and clean. A/C is a window unit in the entry living room so crank it up when you arrive to ensure cool comfort later as the bedroom is in the adjoining room. They had a standing oscillating fan in the closet which was great as a noise maker. We slept very well. Great location and parking!

    First night we went to the beach using our beach towel, next day housekeeping cleaned the room and took a beach towel, I informed the front desk when we returned that night. It was supposed to be returned. Next morning I called and it was supposed to be looked into AGAIN, on check out I again tryed to get it returned, waited for a supervisor for 20 min NO SHOW. So I left
