Loved staying beachfront. Views were beautiful. Restaurants were excellent. Location was perfect. However, the bed left something to be desired. We left stiff and sore with massages scheduled the day after we returned home. Rooms need a microwave. We requested one and it never came. Bath towels were smaller than average. Floors are a laminate so sand stuck to our feet as we walked, which in turn ended up in our beds. Will try somewhere else next trip.

Room with balcony giving 4th floor view of breathtaking sunsets. Bathroom simple and clean. Beds comfortable. Convenient coffee maker and fridge/freezer. All staff i encountered were friendly, courteous very helpful. Good food. Happy hour. Unavoidable noise from renovations kept to minimum. Neighborhood construction bothersome on front streetside of building. (post hurricaine). Overall wonderful experience.

My second stay here, love the newly remodeled rooms. Very well appointed. Beds comfortable. I sat on the balcony and watched the sunset which is lovely there. I grabbed dinner at Yo Taco - a shop within Lani and it was the best burrito and great guac. Rooms also was very quiet & peaceful.

Even from the devastation from hurricane Ian, the resort is getting back to it beauty! Gorgeous beaches, the staff was really friendly, and everything was a really great time. Walking distance to the old pier area and all the other beach side shopping

Loved Lani Kai! The sand was PERFECT! The neighboring beaches were not as nice. I love the chaise lounges, umbrellas and tables! They offered jet skiing too! Loved that you could have food and drinks on the beach. Bar waitresses came to you and served you super fast. A couple of bars, restaurants and cute shops too. Fantastic experience!!
