We stayed at Lani for a "staycation" as we live here in Fl. They had remodeled it after the Hurricanes that hit Fort Myers Beach & all their hard work prevailed! The location is directly on water & views are awesome. The restaurant Gracies serves breakfast and it was great, both beachside bars are very nice and have full bar as well as the famous RumRunners & other frozen drinks. The room we had was so well appointed, everything so beautiful & beach vibe. Ours had a microwave, small frig & Keurig, a balcony where I watched the beautiful sunset! The patio doors are almost soundproof & Hurricane resistant - there was music on beach level but I heard none of it, the hotel halls were also very quiet. My husband & I are in our late 60's and we had fun with bartenders & people who rent chairs on beach for a reasonable for the whole day. We loved our choice of place to stay & will go back!

I have stayed at lani kai twice before. I am always happy with my stay. Unfortunately the lani kai was hit very hard during the hurricane that hit fort meyers a few years back. They have done a great job trying to get everything rebuilt. Fort Meyers itself appears to be still working to rebuild. It appears that since the hurricane now properties stores etc have been bought up and are being rebuilt into beach homes. That makes me very sad to see. I will continue to stay at lani kai when i visit my niece. They are a family owned resort and I commend them for their strength after the hurricane. Staff was pleasant and helpful. I love that it is beachfront. The staff is out there every morning making the beach perfect. Only complaint is the cost to rent beach chairs and an umbrella daily.

I was disappointed the Sun Room was closed, but given the circumstances it was understandable. Breakfast was overpriced for the quality. I got a giant burrito but it was cold inside. Avoid. Bar and food service on the beach bumped up my review by a star. Well done!

We will definitely return!

We absolutely loved the Lani Kai. Our room was beautiful and even though we had a problem with the door latch maintenance was sent to fix it immediately. Our room was on the fourth floor near the pool end of the building which we would definitely recommend because the palm trees are still there and make a lovely sound! The staff was very friendly! The food was delicious. The view was amazing and we love seeing Fort Myers Beach making a comeback!
