Island Sunsets
Check out Sanibel Island’s breathtaking sunsets from Island Inn’s private beach. Sanibel sunsets are renowned for their breathtaking colors and provide photo worthy backdrops. Stay steps away from the Sanibel sunsets in our well-appointed rooms and suites. Keep an eye on our live beach cam to catch a preview of the sunset. Once your here be sure to consult the tide times and the sunset clock to find the perfect time to take in the sunsets.
If you are lucky you might even catch the green flash that takes place at the very moment when the sun sinks below the horizon. The phenomenon only lasts a couple seconds as the sun appears to turn green. This happens when in the final moments when the sun is in the sky due to the refraction of sunlight. It happens so fast it is hard to catch but if you time it just right you will be among the few with bragging rights.
See some of the pictures guests of the Island Inn have taken below.

Tranquility I usually travel alone and I felt completely safe at the Island Inn. The inn is clean and well cared for, everything is in tip-top condition! In addition, the employees were all very kind. The free use of the umbrellas and beach chairs are the icing on the cake! Some other resorts on the island charge you $$ to sit under an umbrella. read more
A great place to stay! We just left this wonderful inn. The people were so kind and welcoming, the room (actually more of a condo) was beautiful and had everything we needed. The beach in front of the inn was beautiful and had better shells than most places on the island! The balcony, which was screened in, was beautiful, we ate breakfast there every day! There were chairs and umbrellas on the beach. You can’t beat the sunset as well. This was our first time back to Sanibel since the devastating hurricanes. There were plenty of restaurants open and lots of shops are coming back too. We’ll be back! read more
Return to Paradise We have stayed at the Island Inn many times. However, this was our first stay since the hurricanes hit Sanibel. The rooms in Matthews Lodge were just as great as ever. The beach had a great many more shells. The chairs and umbrellas made sitting on the beach very peaceful and enjoyable. The staff was as friendly and welcoming as ever. While so much has changed, we were glad to support the Island Inn and all the other familiar businesses on Sanibel. It is important to show your loyalty to such a wonderful place and the people who live and work there. We will be back again in the near future! read more
