“Island Inn impressed me with its commitment to both guest comfort and environmental stewardship. The beachfront location at Sanibel's southern tip means prime shelling, and the updated rooms with full kitchens are a practical touch; plus, partnerships with conservation groups show a genuine dedication to the island's natural beauty, in my opinion. I find this blend of relaxation and responsible tourism quite appealing.”
