Tarpon Tale Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Cannot say enough good things about the Tarpon Tale Inn! Joe and Connor went above and beyond welcoming us and communicating with us to make sure our stay was perfect. Very clean, food, coffee, ice cream, and shopping across the street and right next door. The free bikes and beach stuff were awesome. They have literally thought of EVERYTHING! Even a shell washing station. Will DEFINITELY be back!"

Sanibel Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We just returned from Sanibel and stayed at the Sanibel Inn. The property was recently renovated and the rooms were great! Very clean with a beautiful view of the ocean. The staff was extremely helpful and provided towels, chairs and umbrellas for the beach. The landscaping was beautiful. We would definitely recommend this property. It was perfect for our stay!"

Island Inn

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at Island Inn on Sanibel Island for 2 nights just before Christmas when it was not so busy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The room is nice and cozy, with a fully functional kitchen and spacious bathroom We love the beachfront location, very convenient for the family. Free beach chairs, umbrellas, grillsll, and beach toys, you name it! Free parking in designated spaces, one for each unit. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They even offered a tide chart at check-in for you to plan shelling activities, LOL. In my opinion we had the best beach for collectingseashells right in front of the hotel. "
