"This was a fantastic "dream holiday". The hotel and location were superb, and the car hire and flights all worked out well. Finding a place to stay on Sanibel has been an ambition since we first visited the island as day trippers many years ago. However finding somewhere to stay from here in the UK is not easy as this is not a resort covered by "normal" UK travel agents and tour operators. Expedia gave us the shop window through which to research the options, and with a little help from Google...
