It all began in 1885
Sanibel Island was established in 1885. It began as the home
of Will and Harriet Matthews and their four children who traded
in the harsher climate of the north for the more temperate,
year round weather of Sanibel Island. Constantly entertaining
friends and relatives from the north who flocked to visit,
the Matthews decided to turn their home into a boarding house.
And from this grew the gracious tradition of the historic
Island Inn that now hosts families and friends from around
the world.
Access to Miles of Beaches
Today, our 550 feet of unobstructed beach frontage and 10-acres
of property form a horseshoe shape that seems to embrace
you with a warm sense of community. A variety of accommodations
with traditional amenities are available to meet the needs
of practically any individual, family or group. Our location
is the perfect spot for vacations, family reunions, corporate
retreats and weddings.
Never Feel Crowded
While the Inn offers a very large beachfront (550
ft) it offers a limited number of units (54) and therefore
a limited number of guests.
