Wonderful inn right on the water. If you plan on taking a boat this is the absolute perfect place to stay in Ft Myers near the Caloosahatchee river and gulf.
Inn staff was very helpful. Walking distance to many restaurants and shopping.

Great, Great, Great!!!
We planned a staycation for my friend's birthday weekend. Room was a great location overlooked restaurant and the water for an amazing view! Penny was very accommodating to our needs. We were able to walk to a lot of places. Pool and Spa were very relaxing. The only issue I would mention is the HVAC until was leaking water all over the floor. Otherwise, we had a great time and will definitely be back in the future.
