Great stay!

The food in the restaurant is a must try if you have not been before even if you don’t stay there! Perfect place to unwind and sleep for a couple or even by yourself!

enjoyed the authenticity of a spot that is truly old Florida. Keeping history intact does bring the drawback of having to forgo the comforts of modern lodging establishments.

I enjoyed my time at the hotel. We did upgrade and change rooms due to wanting a bigger bed. That was all taken care of before we got there. The innkeeper gave us a tour of the hotel and was very knowledgeable. of the history of the island and recommendations of what I was looking for. There is an oversized swing on the porch that I took a nap on. I loved this hotel, and the bar, and the restaurant. I loved the toiletries in the room.
