Very classy rooms. They made the most of the space and felt comfortable.

My family of three, along with our small dog, stayed at the Anchor Inn for a weekend getaway and had a wonderful experience. We stayed in the Lucky 13 unit, which features a comfortable king bedroom and a pullout sofa bed. My daughter prefers sleeping on her air mattress, which actually worked out perfectly because it took up less space and allowed us to relax together on the sofa and enjoy family movie nights. The unit was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. I especially loved the kitchenette—the vintage-style refrigerator and stove are absolutely adorable and add so much character. The design choices throughout the unit are thoughtful and charming. The bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom and shower were surprisingly spacious. The air conditioning worked great, which was especially appreciated after spending time outdoors. While the property is not directly on the beach, it is centrally located and just a short ride away. The owners have thought of everything for beach days, providing bikes, beach chairs, and towels for guests to use. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend the Anchor Inn. We would definitely stay here again.

A great place to stay on Sanibel! We loved the bikes and used them to ride all over the island (they have baskets which is also helpful). The beach is <1 mile away and less 8 min bike ride. The rooms are well decorated, updated, and good for a short stay. We did find someone else's shorts under the bed and a few of the dishes weren't clean, so a little more attention needs to be put on cleaning, but overall the unit was well kept! It was nice to have a pool - the pool was quite hot and not really refreshing, but to be expected of a pool in the sun in Florida in the summer. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others!

Beautiful place with great amenities. The rooms are well decorated and very clean. We also really loved 2 bathrooms and a full kitchen. The outdoor space is just perfect to spend time after the beach.

We had a wonderful stay at The Anchor Inn! Our room was very clean and well decorated. They have excellent amenities that we used throughout the stay including the laundry room, bikes, pool, and beach equipment with beautiful beaches within a mile of the Inn. Will definitely be coming back!

Very clean and homey feeling and close to the beach! The pool area was blown off daily and they had floats to use as well! There was corn hole boards out for use and comfy hammocks hanging around the area as well. They also had free bicycles for use along with beach chairs and wagons! We brought our pup along with us and they were so kind to leave dog bowls, a little bed and even some toys for him!! Nothing!

Everything you need and everything every beach hotel should have and does not. Chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, bicycles,laundry, a shell cleaning station. I have nothing for you here??

The Anchor Inn exceeded our expectations. Comfortable, clean, well thought out, nice amenities. We will be back, hopefully soon.

Beautifully remodeled inn. However, I would like to have a little more personal contact during my visit. The Inn itself is lovingly restored and we especially appreciated the pool.

Everything! Favorite hotel stay yet. So much charm and unique qualities ❤️? The shell washing and drying station was my favorite bonus. All staff we talked to were so pleasant and helpful. Free bikes, washer+dryer, beach chairs, umbrellas and so much more available to use during your stay. Worth the price. Already planning when I can come back!!
