Spectacular Shelling
Shelling on Sanibel Island draws thousands to the island every year. Island Inn is strategically located at the outer point of the Sanibel Island barrier reef where birds, shells and miles of sandy beaches are found in abundance. Spectacular shelling is the number one reason shellers visit the historic Island Inn!

Drift along the shore while experiencing the warm waters and beautiful views of Southwest Florida. The Island Inn has onsite kayak and stand-up paddleboards available to rent directly from our beach, where paddling among dolphins and even manatees is not uncommon! In addition to rentals, kayaking lessons for beginners and guided tours into the islands’ wildlife areas where you can’t go by larger craft are also available at Outfitters of Sanibel.

Wonderful and close to the beach. Everything needed is available and the proximity to the beach is the best. We rarely ate out since we could cook our own meals. Chairs are set up for guests every day and towels are provided. We always enjoy our stay here! 
Tranquility I usually travel alone and I felt completely safe at the Island Inn. The inn is clean and well cared for, everything is in tip-top condition! In addition, the employees were all very kind. The free use of the umbrellas and beach chairs are the icing on the cake! Some other resorts on the island charge you $$ to sit under an umbrella.
A great place to stay! We just left this wonderful inn. The people were so kind and welcoming, the room (actually more of a condo) was beautiful and had everything we needed. The beach in front of the inn was beautiful and had better shells than most places on the island! The balcony, which was screened in, was beautiful, we ate breakfast there every day! There were chairs and umbrellas on the beach. You can’t beat the sunset as well. This was our first time back to Sanibel since the devastating hurricanes. There were plenty of restaurants open and lots of shops are coming back too. We’ll be back!
