In the downtown Fort Myers area, affordable hotels with numerous amenities such as in-room coffee, hairdryers, refrigerators, microwaves, and daily newspapers include Days Inn North, the Howard Johnson Express Inn, the Radisson Inn Fort Myers, and the Ramada Inn & Suites at Amtel Marina.

North Fort Myers
Some of the lodgings available are adventures in themselves, such as the Cabbage Key Inn, 20 miles northwest of Fort Myers, accessible only by water transportation. You can reach it by water taxi from Pine Island. There’s a popular restaurant here, and you can watch dolphins, fish or just relax in the sun. Nearby is the Marinatown Marina, which offers showers, laundry service and boat repair. South, near Fort Myers Beach, is the Fish Tale Marina.
Sanibel Island and Captiva
Of course, there’s nothing like the magic and charm of Sanibel Island and Captiva to feel like you’ve really gotten away from it all. A short drive south of Fort Myers, you’ll discover an island paradise just across the bridge. With a wildlife refuge and several golf courses and great restaurants, there are many resorts, inns and hotels to meet your needs.
In Captiva, the 330-acre golf resort, South Seas Resort, offers luxurious accommodations. In Sanibel, the West Wind Inn offers a 500-foot beach and butterfly garden, and the Sanibel Harbour Resort & Spa not only has a hotel and condominium units, but a spa, fitness center and tennis complex.
