We have never been to either, but are thinking of going later this year. For just a couple, which would you choose, between Charter Club on Marco, or Hurricane House, Sanibel Cottages, Shell Island or Sanibel Beach Club I or II on Sanibel?
Thanks folks, for your thoughts.
Chriskre, how long does it take, please, to drive from say Marco Island to Ft. Lauderdale?
I usually make that drive right at two hours, door-to-door, with no traffic. When we stay at our Surf Club week, we often fly in/out of FLL as there are usually better prices and direct flights vs. flying from Ft. Myers (RSW).It's about 2-1/2 hours from Ft. Lauderdale airport.
You can pick up I-75 from SR 535 which leaves right out of the airport or do it in reverse from Marco.
I-75 AKA Alligator Alley. Not much to see on the way but alligators.
I have no experience booking Marco island or Sanibel. Can you book say a Tuesday to a Tuesday? Or are you restricted to certain check in dates? Also, how do you book since it is not on-line booking? Thinking of going mid October. Any advice is appreciated!
Never having been on vacation in the part of the country, is there a time of year to avoid, or is pretty nice most of the year?
Thinking ahead to 2016 or 2017 for a trip to this part of the country.
