Hotels and Accommodations - Shell Point Retirement Community

For island accommodations at mainland prices, visit one of Shell Point's two hotel choices. Both are open to the public and the perfect way to enjoy the Lee Island Coast.

Country Inn and Suites Sanibel Gateway

Located on the corner of Shell Point and McGregor Boulevards, the 112-room Country Inn and Suites is one of the Lee Island Coast's best choices for top-quality accommodations. Visitors are right in the middle of the carefree vacation lifestyle that Lee County has to offer, just 1.6 miles from the Sanibel Causeway and 5 miles to Fort Myers Beach. Enjoy a single room or two-room suite, or a special extended-stay suite with full kitchen. All rooms feature free continental breakfast, access to the outdoor heated swimming pool and exercise room, free high-speed Internet access, hair dryers, coffee makers, an iron and ironing board, and the sweetest bonus - freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies in the lobby 24 hours a day! Visitors are close to the Shell Point Golf Club, beaches, and numerous other Southwest Florida destinations.

The Country Inn and Suites offers discounts to Shell Point residents, employees, and their guests, as well as AAA and AARP members. A few smoking rooms are available and pets are allowed, with a fee. To make a reservation, call the national toll-free number 1-800-456-4000 (be sure to mention this location's name, "Sanibel Gateway") or locally at (239) 454-9292, or click here to reserve a room online.

The Guest House

The AAA-rated Shell Point Guest House, located on The Island, has 39 clean, comfortable, double-occupancy units. This is the ideal solution for visiting friends and family of Island residents, or travellers headed to Sanibel or other Southwest Florida destinations.

The Guest House has all the extras you'd expect from a quality motel: heated swimming pool, several dining choices, laundry, vending, and more. Guests of Shell Point residents receive a discount, as do AARP members, AAA members, and people staying longer than 30 days. Children under 18 stay free! This makes the Guest House an unbeatable value in lodging in Southwest Florida, especially during the summer when the rates are lower.
