Visitor Reviews
Great view! Island Inn was a great place to stay. We had a gorgeous view of the beach and a screened in porch with a ceiling fan. The suite was beautifully decorated and had plenty of towels and toiletries provided. We could not have been in a better location for shelling as there were numerous huge stacks along our stretch of the beach. Finally, Glory was very patient and knowledgeable with my many questions. read more
Shelley’s paradise This is our second time at the Island Inn. First time was before Ian. The place has changed with the removal of the central building that held the restaurant but the accommodation and people are the same. It’s a great location right on the beach. We stayed for a week for my wife’s birthday and they left her a special treat. Great people and great place. Highly recommend read more
After Ian Still recovering from hurricane Ian we knew in advance that amenities were limited. Our room was great, very clean and comfortable, the management are doing the best they can for visitors. Very welcoming and friendly, and if you understand how bad that hurricane was I still recommend this place. There is building work noise nearby but we expected that. This place will bounce back and we would definitely stay there again in the future. read more
