“The Inn's direct beach access, with provided chairs and umbrellas, is a significant draw, and the renovated accommodations are quite appealing, particularly with their spacious layouts and excellent ocean views from private, screened porches. While the absence of a pool and breakfast service post-hurricane is noted, the exceptionally kind staff and the prime location for shelling still make this a noteworthy stay on Sanibel.”
