⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Talk about a GLOW-up vacay! We stayed in unit C-01 for Valentine’s Day & it was spectacular!! 💖 From the moment we walked in it felt like an instant exhale! Unit C-01 is decorated to the nines, coastal/beachy modern & absolutely spotless!! Truly one of those places you walk in and think, YEP, this is exactly what we hoped for! We spent Valentine’s Day biking around Sanibel! We brought our own bikes, but the bike rentals are within walking distance. Our 1st biking stop was at Sundial for a drink on the beach, then we biked to Lazy Flamingo for some apps, and we finally ended at Grandma Dot’s for Valentine’s dinner. We came back to the coziest condo and we were able to snuggle up & watch a movie! We ran the beach in the morning, and then of course we biked to Wickies for breakfast…

The rooms are the cleanest I've ever stayed in. We live in PG but wanted to come to Sanibel to relax for a few days. It was the best decision to stay here. Short walk to the beach is an added bonus. We paid extra for early check-in but the room wasn't ready when we arrived. The manager said she would refund the check-in fee and if we wanted to go get some drinks somewhere to bring her the receipt and she'd reimburse us. We ended up just hanging out at the lighthouse and within 10 minutes she texted saying our room was ready. Even though we checked in earlier than the usual time, she still reimbursed us the fee. It's very refreshing to see people actually making things right instead of just talking about it. We'll be staying here again.

We had a great stay at C-55. The condo was clean and comfortable. The pool was great. The proximity to the beach was fantastic. We enjoyed having beach towels, beach chairs and umbrella available to use.

I love this place! I recently visited Sanibel Island and stayed at the Colony Inn in unit C-13, and had a wonderful experience. The unit was beautiful, clean, cozy, with lots of sunlight and very quiet since it’s a corner unit with no foot traffic past the door. The location was perfect being just a short walk to the beach and great restaurants like Wickies. The staff was also very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, I had an amazing time and would absolutely book the Colony Inn, especially unit C-13, again.

Love, love , love the quaint charm of the Colony Inn! |We stayed in Unit C-13 which is a bright, private corner unit with a great pool view. The location of the Inn is AMAZING… an easy 5 min walk the beach and a 5 minute walk to nearby dining. The staff is friendly and accommodating (they provided beach chairs and umbrellas for us to use) and renting bikes was a great way to explore the island. We can’t wait to return ☀️🌴☀️🌴😎🌴☀️🌴☀️
