Very cute vibe! Location was great -right on main “drag” walking distance to several places but biking is the way to go! So much fun and with the bike paths you can basically go anywhere. Perfect size for two. Very clean and lots of little touches that made it better like the shell cleaning station.

We had a wonderful stay at Anchor Cottage Inn on Sanibel. The location was incredibly convenient, close to everything we needed yet it remained peaceful and quiet even though the property was fully booked during our visit and located off a main road. We stayed in the Signature Cottage, which was beautifully designed with thoughtful details throughout. It truly felt like everything had been considered, from the clean, easy-to-use laundry machines to the beach chairs and towels ready for use. A special mention goes to Jane, who was absolutely amazing warm, welcoming, and always available when we had questions. Her recommendations for food and local activities were spot-on and really enhanced our trip. We would absolutely recommend staying here and wouldn’t hesitate to return.

Really cute place, clean, beautiful renovation, good location, owner was easy to communicate with. The bed was really comfortable. My only negative was that in the king pond view room the AC blows right on the bed. I had a hard time sleeping but my husband was ok. We only stayed one night so I dealt with it but if we were there longer I might've asked to change rooms if the AC was different in another room. But overall I would book again on another trip to Sanibel.

You probably will not stay in one of the triangular cottages. Most rooms look like a one-story motel and are not well represented on the hotel web site. However, everything about the room was high quality and comfortable. Our room (07) overlooked a pond with anhingas, turtles and egrets. Free bikes with helmets and locks, free guest laundry.

Nice location. Updated finishes. Pet friendly. No staff on site whatsoever (other than cleaning staff that spoke no English) which was frustrating when we were to check in to Unit 13 and the property only shows 12 units in all signage making us think we were scammed while we sit in 90 degree sun baking trying to get ahold of someone. Finally reached someone by phone after multiple texts and calls and were advised that this was a new unit with no signage. We were apparently supposed to receive a text explaining this. If you’re going to go without onsite staff make sure your system works and you have someone actively managing messages. This made for a poor start but the property is nicely maintained and well located. Some information in the rooms or on property and/or website with local suggestions and helpful tips would have been nice like beaches to explore, where to park, recommended restaurants, etc.

Our stay at Anchor Inn may have been short, but it was so sweet! The space was absolutely amazing, and we already can’t wait to come back the next time we’re in Sanibel. The owner was incredibly responsive and attentive, and adding an early check-in was seamless and hassle-free. We loved every minute and would definitely recommend it!
