My now-husband and I are from out-of-state, and we booked our wedding at Sundial -- and planned everything -- without being able to visit until the day before. I don't think it could have turned out any better even if we had visited! Working with Tracy Snyder to put together our wedding at Sundial was such a simple and stress-free process. She was very responsive and flexible, and seemed to have solutions for everything! The West Lawn is a beautiful spot for a ceremony, and the Lace Murex Lawn was just what we had envisioned for an intimate outdoor reception. I think they say that you know it's going well when you realize you haven't worried about any of the small details. The evening flew by so I hardly had the time to think about all the details that had mattered during the planning process, but after we got our pictures it was clear that Tracy and the staff had gotten everything just as we had wished. Shoutout to the several resort staff who were so helpful and kind -- for helping m... Read moree to get my dress and bouquet to the suite, for the golf cart rides, for helping to look for a lost item after the reception, and for being so patient while I was stressed. We are so grateful and definitely recommend having a wedding at Sundial!

The resort and food were great! Lavender, the wedding coordinator, was so quick to respond to every email and call. She made the whole process a breeze and accommodated all of my wishes for our wedding. I cannot day enough good things about her and the staff. The spot on the beach was great and the lawn the reception took place on was beautiful (one of my favorite parts) THANK YOU LAVENDER!!! ❤️Spud and Peyton Matuszak

Highly recommend Sundial for weddings. Everything was perfect! We had most our guest coming from out of town and it was the perfect location that had anything you would need and something for all ages! I would recommend brides to get a 3 bedroom suite the night before the wedding so it can also be your “getting ready” room with your bridesmaids. It was just the right amount of room for everyone to have space for hair and makeup. Although all the staff at Sundial were amazing, Tracy the wedding coordinator made our day perfect! She is very helpful, extremely responsive and attentive to anything you need prior to the wedding and during the entire wedding weekend.

The staff at the Sundial were friendly and were willing to go the extra mile to make our day as perfect as possible. Lavender, the Catering Manager, was kind and professional, only wanting to make sure our day (and stay) was the best it could be. She worked with our budget and went above and beyond our expectations. We had a small ceremony and reception of 11 total and the beautiful Sundial resort and beach scenery complimented the whole event beautifully. The only downside was having to go back home. We will be back to celebrate our anniversary and to bring our families for years to come!

Our wedding at Sundial on 04/20/19 couldn't have gone better. Ashley was the absolute best to work - professional, calming, intelligent, and good at her job. When we began the wedding venue selection process it was a daunting task but as soon as I heard from Ashley I knew Sundial was the place we would get married. My husband and I live in Charlotte, NC so most of our planning was done through email. Ashley was quick to respond and answer questions for me. We were able to customize a menu based off what WE wanted which was a joy. We finally got to tour the venue in February when we came into town for a vendor visit and pictures don't do this place justice. The entire property is breathtaking - natural beauty. The beach, lawn, and indoor reception rooms were so gorgeous, and elegant. There was so much about wedding planning that I didn't know (timeline, bridal party order, etc) Ashley was so patience and accommodating with us. The day of our wedding the weather was so perfect. ... Read more The day went by so quick and I can't believe it is over. The food here was TOP NOTCH. My husband and I got so many compliments on our choices of food and the attentiveness of the bartenders. Thank you Ashley and all the Sundial team for making our wedding dreams come true.

Sundial Beach Resort & Spa, Tracy, we cannot thank you enough for a once in a life time Wedding experience at Sundial! Everything about the resort gave our guests the destination feel, and even us living in Fort Myers felt as though we were somewhere far far away! With everything being a short walk to the beach, the bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, pools, and volleyball net lended endless amounts of fun for everyone! Not only was all the food, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, to die for, but the service was amazing as well. The whole overall persona that Sundial emits cannot be beat! Our wedding could not have been any more gorgeous, with the lights and stairs above us, our guests having a blast dancing in the sand! We could not have asked for a better venue! Literally a once in a life time experience thank cannot be beat! Everyone was so sad to leave! Tracy, you went above and beyond anything I could have asked for and am so very thankful to have had you to coordinate everything at Sundial!... Read more Thank you a million times over!

Tiffany and her crew exceeded our expectations. I had concern, as we had never set foot on the property prior to arriving for the wedding. Everything was beautiful, and just as my daughter had planned. They were easy and kind to work with. Everyone who attended loved the resort, and many guests were overheard discussing plans to return next year.

Ashley and everyone at Sundial Resort did an amazing job helping me plan a wedding from Iowa. The food was delicious, the setting was beautiful and Ashley was amazing at making it all come together. I couldn't have asked for anything more, it was truly my dream wedding!

We had the most incredible wedding weekend at the Sundial Resort & Spa this past weekend!! Tiffany was amazing from the day we toured the venue right through our reception. She was so easy to work with and she went out of her way to make sure every detail was perfect and that my husband and I (and my overly involved parents) were abundantly happy. The grounds at the Sundial are absolutely beautiful and everything was picture perfect from our welcome party on Friday night to our sunset ceremony on the west lawn, our breathtaking cocktail hour on the ballroom balcony and our reception in the ballroom. The food was great both at our event and at the hotel's restaurants. The staff was super friendly and accommodating all weekend and all of our guests had an incredible time and are already talking about going back for another stay at the Sundial. I honestly could not be more pleased and would reccomend the Sundial to anyone looking to have a stress-free and amazing wedding experience!

My husband and I had the wedding that we always dreamed of at the Sundial Beach Resort and Spa. Our wedding coordinator Tiffany was the best! She made sure that every little detail was perfect, that way we could have the wedding of our dreams. She was super easy to talk to and you could really tell that she cares about each of the brides and grooms who choose to get married at Sundial. The Sundial Beach Resort was absolutely beautiful! We had a balcony overlooking the water. We also loved all the activities that there is to do! We played tennis, rode bikes, went paddle boarding and kayaking, and enjoyed the pool and tiki bar. The food was amazing as well. We had lunch at the Turtle's Pool & Beach bar where I would highly recommend the shrimp, crab, spinach & artichoke dip. We also had dinner at the Japanese steakhouse Shima which was fantastic! If your looking to have that beautiful beach wedding then Sundial is the perfect venue!

Sundial was absolutely the perfect place for our destination wedding! I searched and toured SEVERAL places trying to find the right place. Sundial was perfect for us, not only because of its breathtaking beach and lawns and courtyards (which are truly gorgeous) but guests have a variety of activities and things do to, without ever having to leave the resort. We were looking for a place that even guests who do not or did not want to lay out on the beach, would still have things to do. Sundial offers kayak, paddle board, pickleball court, and bike rentals, which is all included in your resort fee. Additionally, they have fun shelling activities and the staff is so friendly! It was also important to me for my guests, including myself and our wedding party, to be able to come and relax during their stay. It was so nice to not have to worry about decorating and setting up the day before or last minute details. Tiffany and the entire Sundial staff truly made sure we were taken care. In addit... Read moreion, the whole wedding process was simple. Tiffany was always prompt to answer all my questions and emails, and was always happy to help. They also provided a list of suggested vendors to help in selecting a florist ,entertainment and any other amenities we may have needed. Being so far away (Wisconsin,) we were unable to go and check out vendors ourselves, so having a list of people Sundials and trusts really helped us out. We are so happy we chose Sundial and would recommend to anyone looking for a destination/Florida wedding!

There are some things I loved about this venue and some things I think could definitely be improved upon. Pros: Our planner was so very responsive to my five million questions and very friendly with each response; The venue was gorgeous; The price was very reasonable (we went with Sanibel Dreams) and included chairs, tables, arch, set up, take down, cocktails, dinner, service, and a honeymoon room (for meeting a minimum # of guest plates), the cake, basic centerpieces; We were surprised with chocolate covered strawberries, a little gift, and a bottle of wine in our honeymoon suite that night Cons: Didn't provide any space in which to get ready for the day unless you booked hotel rooms there (which we didn't); I had to ask so many questions - very little information was provided up front - I had to know what questions to ask; Didn't include floral arrangements, set up or take down of personal items we brought or rented (extra centerpiece decorations, aisle runner, ceremony decorati... Read moreons, etc), a/v equipment; The reception area in the Murex lawn was SO HOT and stagnant. The breeze from the beach didn't make it past the hedges and it created a sweltering environment for dinner. It would have been so much better if industrial fans were placed on the ground or in the trees; We asked for umbrellas on the tables for the cocktail hour because it was on a bare beach in June. We were told they would be provided and they weren't. Our guests were all over the resort seeking shade; We asked for lawn jenga for the kids at our dinner and were told it would be there - it wasn't. My maid of honor and the kids had to go get it and bring it over; The water for the cocktail hour very quickly ran out (because it was all ice and very little water). When this was mentioned to our planner by multiple guests, she told them to go get water at the bar instead of getting the water filled back up. The bar keeper was visibly annoyed that my guests kept coming up to get water.

The rooms are all individually owned condos, so they are all decorated differently and you never know what you are going to get or how clean it will be. Most of them are also a long way from the venues, so getting there in a wedding dress was ridiculous especially since our wedding coordinator was MIA the entire time and wasn’t answering the phone. She forgot about rehearsal and had already gone home by the time it was supposed to start. The rooms are quite expensive for what you get. It’s cheaper to reserve rooms through their regular site than the ‘special discount rate’ they promise. We paid for a one bedroom, but they gave us a studio, claiming it was a one bedroom (the owner had altered it, removing the doors). Most of our guests were very disappointed at the room quality vs the crazy cost. The salon was horrible. I’m glad I did a trial, because a beauty school would have been better. The person they gave me was completely untrained and lazy. I could and did do a better... Read more job on my makeup. She painted me in crazy dark colors. I looked so bad it traumatized me to the point that I immediately went and bought a bunch of anti-aging stuff because she managed to make me look ten years older. The hair was so bad, I could easily have done better, but I paid to have an outside person drive there instead. I’m glad that I did because it was quite windy on the beach and the photos would have been impossible if I hadn’t had an updo. All of that said, the food was good and the wait staff was excellent (which was good because there was a mandatory tip, I think it was about 28%). It was nice to have the chairs and arch set up for us. We paid a florist to come in and do all of the decorating. The wedding was pretty and the photos turned out well. If I had it all to do over again, I would have the wedding there but recommend my guest stay elsewhere.

We are a couple from Wisconsin. Three of our immediate family members are teachers and limited to Spring Break season. Costs were high this time of year, but Sundial was the most reasonable! Not only were they reasonable, but, the venue was amazing and the staff was AWESOME! Everyone was extremely friendly and Tiffany took care of all our concerns. We hadn't been to Sanibel Island before, but I can assure you, this location didn't disappoint. We had a most perfect day. We're not planning on it....but if we had to get remarried, we'd do it at Sundial all over again!
