The Venue Of My Dreams with the Best Staff

Our wedding at Sanibel Harbour Marriott was amazing. After the hurricane, we moved our wedding there - and I honestly think it was fate! Anne Marie was an amazing asset to our team, the rooms were perfect, and each venue space we used was perfection. We loved having our ceremony out on the Palms Pool Deck, with the sun setting behind us. The food was exceptional. The service was beyond compare! We had our own personal server assigned to us at every event who ensured we had whatever we needed. The venue worked with us on everything, and our guests loved their stay as well. They went to great lengths to ensure us the best weekend ever. I can't wait to go back someday so celebrate an anniversary!

Best wedding ever!

Doug Baker was amazing to work with. All of guests loved the venue and all want to go back again soon! The view is incredible, the food was amazing, the staff was great, rooms were clean, bartenders were awesome. This venue was magical. I can’t imagine having my wedding anywhere else. Spa was awesome , Chabeli and Corzi were great!
Minor Constructive criticism: room block was difficult. We sold over 120 rooms and it was hard to contact the room block people and there were several issues with that so be on top of that. rooms were a bit hot, a/c could have been turned up as many guests were hot in both ceremony room and reception room. Our cake was thrown out without some guests getting to eat (many were outside on balcony and didn’t get the chance to notice and were quickly taken away), our lights were not turned off for dancing and it took me longer than it should have to find her. All minor things but overall an incredible experience. If you are booking here, you have to work with Doug Baker! He’s the best.
