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.

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 
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.
Love the Island Inn! We have been coming to Sanibel for years and this was our first stay at the Island Inn. We booked again for next year before we left, we love it there. Wonderful and easy accommodations, great helpful staff, we couldn't ask for anything more. You step right onto the beach from your screened in porch, so even when you are not on the beach you are enjoying it. The best shelling around! We enjoyed the morning beach walk with the staff from the Sanibel Sea School, it was very knowledgable and fun! Highly recommend!
