Set on a quarter-mile stretch of sugar-white sand at the tip of Estero Island, Pink Shell Beach Resort & Marina is a family favourite on Florida’s beautiful Gulf Coast. Spread across 12 tropical acres, it’s the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. Start each day with breakfast (it's included in your stay!), then dive into one of three pools, including the playful Octopool with its waterfalls and giant seashells. Out on the water, enjoy complimentary kayaking and paddleboarding, or push the boat out for sailing lessons at the resort’s exclusive Offshore Sailing School. There’s plenty to keep everyone entertained, from live music and family activities to peaceful moments on the beach watching those famous Gulf sunsets. And with Fort Myers Beach just a short stroll away, you’ll have easy access to local shops, restaurants and that easy-going coastal vibe.

“Great amenities including Ranger Rob!”

Oct 15, 2025Leah B

We love Pink Shell- great amenities for kids. Our girls loved the complimentary kayaks, paddle boards, and Ranger Rob is a highlight of our visit each time. This time we did his sunrise kayak tour, nature walk and met his pet snake. He’s so great with kids and we learn new things every time. Definitely a key part of our experience. Thank you Pink Shell and Ranger Rob for more memories!

“Relaxing Stay with Great Service”

Oct 12, 2025Christie411

We stayed in a one-bedroom unit overlooking the main pool. I was initially worried about noise, but it really wasn’t an issue. We were even able to check in early (around noon), which was a great start to our stay. Housekeeping came by daily with fresh towels, emptied the trash, and made the bed — much appreciated! We dined at Rae’s, Bongo’s, and Jack’s. Rae’s food was good but a little lackluster; Bongo’s had a fun atmosphere; and Jack’s offered an amazing free breakfast — easily one of the highlights of our trip. We also reserved a day bed at the adults-only pool for a day, which was a fantastic setup and very relaxing. Food and drink service at the pool and beach was a bit slow (servers didn’t come around very often), but once we ordered, everything arrived quickly and correctly. The beach itself isn’t the most picturesque, but it’s perfect for shelling. The resort offered plenty of activities and games throughout the day at the Octopool and even one daily event at the adults-only pool. It never felt crowded, which made for a peaceful stay. Every staff member we interacted with was friendly and helpful. The valet team, in particular, went above and beyond — always offering assistance, even when we were just walking by. The only downsides: • No grocery store or restaurants within walking distance (though Walmart delivery worked great). • Limited nearby dining options, but Uber and the local golf cart service (Trippin Rides) made getting off property easy. Overall, the Pink Shell Resort delivered a relaxing, well-run experience with friendly service, fun amenities, and a comfortable atmosphere. We’d definitely return!
