Lani Kai Island Resort

We enjoyed the atmosphere, location and the room had a beautiful view. July 2025, clean rooms. Came with family (all ages) met everyone’s needs.

CAUTION. They will rip you off if they can. One simple mistake on my part, and a $200+ reservation gone. No return on my money, no fixing the situation. "Sorry Sir, you lost you $200 dollars" NEVER going to even think about staying here again. There are nicer, better, more friendly place in Ft. Myers Beach. Go there. Avoid this place.

The Hotel is Beautiful the owners did a Fantastic Job Restoring it after the Terrible Hurricane the Room was newly remodeled, clean with a nice balcony and view. The on site restaurant was such a plus! The Food was Delicious and the staff was excellent! The location overlooks the beach was so beautiful and the prices on food was very reasonable. Ever Employee was very nice and Helpful Being a Single Female I felt safe the whole time and Enjoyed my self very Much!! Will Return !!

Booked 5 nights online and paid for everything. Arrived at noon and got checked in then went to try to rest from the 16 hour drive. The DJ music noise in the room (217) was unreal. Could not sleep at all. Tried to switch rooms and got told no at about 3:00 pm. Tried going to sleep about 9:00 and the bass from the music below was still making it impossible. I went to the front desk and told them they HAD to move us because there’s no way we were staying in that room. We got moved to 117 and it was better that night and the next day. On Friday their DJ turned on the speaker just below our room about 15 feet to the side because he must’ve felt that since nobody was down by him on his end that we needed to hear him better where we were. We were sitting below our room at Yo Taco when he turned ot on and the whole area we was sitting in cleared out because it was so loud now. The DJ must think louder is the only way to listen to it. The next day (Saturday) we tried sitting on the balcony to watch the sunset and once again the music from the bar was very loud to where we couldn’t have a conversation. It was bad. I finally had enough, we went in, got our stuff together, loaded it up and checked out on Saturday at about 7:30 pm, when we were supposed to leave on Monday. I didn’t even care about the lost money at that point, we just wanted away from the Lani Kai. Our booking was done online and nonrefundable and they made sure to repeatedly tell me even though I said I did not care about the money at that point. It took them until the next day to even get us receipt, which was meseed up, but they finally fixed that. We have been to the lani kai 5 or 6 times prior and it had always been nice but we both agreed that we will not go back again. Our vacation was completely ruined due to the extremely loud, non stop music from about 11am til 10pm. No more volleyball net there Parking is $20 a day Beach chair rentals are $35 for 2 loungers, umbrella, and a table and they remove them no later than 5 pm No coolers on the beach No alcoholic drinks in the pool area and they have someone sitting at the gate watching you when you walk in. 2 drinks will set you back $20 with a small tip Restaurants there are reasonable and have good food. The Margaritaville hotel is right next door and that is where we would stay if we ever did decide to ho back to Ft Myers Beach.

This is one of the few resorts that is mostly recovered from Ian. They've done a nice job renovating. It's a very cute resort. Still under construction, but that didn't have an effect on our stay.

This resort has a lot of amenities. The on site restaurant was such a plus! The location overlooks the beach with is so beautiful and we felt the prices on food was very reasonable. Pool was beautiful and has nice loungers and chairs. Rentals for beach chairs, umbrellas were $10 for each item per day and were removed promptly at 5:00pm. We would have liked to have them until at least 6:00 but by 5:00 they were there to remove them. Rooms were acceptable however the beds are really double size. Only 1 mirror over the sink which made it difficult when trying to get cleaned up for the evening with other people in your room. Staff was very pleasant and accommodating. There is extra fees not mentioned when we first booked so make sure you ask about all fees. One final comment. It would have been nice to have a microwave in the room and several coffee packets, cups when there are several guests to a room .
