“This inn strikes me as a particularly charming choice for families or small groups seeking a relaxed getaway. The villas are appointed with simple, natural furnishings, and the patios-hammocks included-invite easygoing relaxation. Its location a short distance from both dining and the beaches of Sanibel suggests convenience without sacrificing a sense of escape.”
