This is the first time we've stayed at the Lani Kai for our Fort Myers visit. Typically we visit the beach bars and thats it. It did not disappoint! The rooms were spacious, clean and very practical. They offered many storage options for your belongings and avove and beyond toiletries. The views are unmatched from the personal balconies. Bed was comfortable and the fridge stayed plenty cold.

The rooms were spacious, clean and very practical. They offered many storage options for your belongings and avove and beyond toiletries. The views are unmatched from the personal balconies. Bed was comfortable and the fridge stayed plenty cold. Staff were friendly and very attentive. The many food options were wonderful. The Sundeck was our favorite hang out. The sunset views, live music, friendly/upbeat staff and food was amazing every time! We had an amazing stay and will definitely be back. Thank you Lani Kai!

We enjoyed our stay at Lani Kai. It provided beautiful scenery and a caring staff. Our room had an incredible view and was very clean & comfortable. We loved all the food choices we had within the resort - all very convenience and also very tasty. The staff members we encountered (at the hotel and all the restaurants) were all friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We came down from Chicago to do a lot... We enjoyed our stay at Lani Kai.

The staff members we encountered (at the hotel and all the restaurants) were all friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We came down from Chicago to do a lot of fishing, and we found that Lani Kai's location was perfect for accessing the many fishing opportunities that are on (or surround) Estero Island. I highly recommend staying at Lani Kai on Fort Myers Beach!
