    Just a top selection for exploring town in Sanibel with fantastic value for money. The front desk staff were super helpful in transferring our belongings seamlessly when we switched rooms. Pack a flashlight for the evenings. it gets really dark.

    The Island Inn is a tranquil spot with friendly staff, a beautiful beach, and clean, comfortable accommodations, though the grills by the pool could use some improvement and there were some pesky no-see-ums. Overall, a pleasant experience that I'll definitely consider revisiting in the future.

    beautiful view
    great biking paths

    A great getaway with friends! We stayed in a studio with a view and loved biking the 21 miles of paths, especially to 'Ding' Darling. The beach was a short walk away, perfect for shelling. The room was clean and comfy. Just a heads-up—the restaurant was closed for renovations, but plenty of nearby options!

    The swimming pool was refreshing, and we enjoyed the daily shell walks right from the beach! The stunning ocean view from our room made every morning special, and the beach toys were a fun bonus.

    A Unique Beach Experience with Friendly Vibes

    We enjoyed our stay, especially at the on-site restaurant where live music created a lively atmosphere. The staff truly stood out for their warmth and helpfulness. For future guests, arriving early for a beach chair is a must! Look out for the delicious seafood specials.

    friendly service
    great beach access

    Perfect for a relaxing family getaway

    The staff really impressed us, greeted us with friendly smiles and even gave us a bottle of champagne for our honeymoon. We loved walking out to the beach every morning, collecting shells and just enjoying the warm waves.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but I guess for what you get it's acceptable.

    Perfect beach getaway!

    Spent 2 nights here, and it was awesome! The suite was super comfy with a nice kitchen. Loved collecting shells on the beach! The staff was friendly and gave us great tips for biking around. Also enjoyed the outdoor dining area for some meals. Only problem was the mattress was too soft, which messed with my back.

    We had an amazing time at this beachfront stay! Loved the cozy screened-in porch with stunning views and the well-stocked kitchenette made it so convenient. Although the pool was gone due to renovations, the beach was super close and beautiful! Would totally come back again!
