Anchor Inn & Cottages Newly Remodeled

Had a great stay at the anchor inn! We got stranded in Florida for a few days due to the storms in the northeast and called anchor inn for a last minute booking, they were so friendly and helpful. We were so pleased when we checked in to see how cute and clean our A frame cottage was. The amenities were great, the location is great, everything was in great condition. Very happy with our experience! My only tip is for women with long hair to bring their own toiletries, the shampoo is a 2-in-1 and detangling beach hair is no easy feat!

I am SO happy that the Anchor Inn is open again. The new owners have done an incredible job. The Anchor Inn was a Sanibel icon & growing up, I used to love driving by it. It was so special to stay here & feel that same charm, only now, it’s even better! Every detail feels thoughtful and intentional, with a clean, comfortable space that has a high end & designer feel. You can tell the new owners really poured their hearts into this project. I was blown away by everything they have done. It’s the kind of place that feels nostalgic & elevated at the same time. Truly a one of a kind place & something everyone needs to experience!! The location is absolutely perfect, just steps from great restaurants & a bike ride away from the beach.

Visited for a long weekend and this was the perfect choice. Amenities such as bikes, chairs, and shell cleaning station was very helpful. Super simple check in and check out process as well. We loved how comfy the bed was, the AC worked great to get out of the heat, and even had a small pond out back where you could watch the birds and gator from your room!

Anchor Inn is a wonderful choice on Sanibel, especially after the recent renovations. The rooms are fresh, stylish, and thoughtfully designed, blending modern comfort with genuine island charm. Everything feels clean, bright, and well put together, making it easy to relax from the moment you arrive. The overall atmosphere is welcoming and laid-back, and the staff truly stand out—friendly and helpful throughout the stay. A great bonus is the free bike rentals, which make it easy and fun to explore the island at your own pace and really enjoy the Sanibel lifestyle. The location right next to Periwinkle Road is convenient for getting around the island. While there can be some traffic noise at times, it was never a real issue and didn’t take away from the quality of the stay. All in all, An

We just stayed here and we would definitely recommend staying here. The rooms have all been redone since the hurricane and they are beautiful. The decor is perfect and the beds are so comfortable. Everything was spotless and it’s in a good location. We will definitely stay again. It is also reasonably priced for the island. Beautiful place and great staff!
