Important Information
Anchor Inn & Cottages is located 30 km from Fort Myers, FL. The remaining balance is due on the day of arrival. The inn is working to rebuild and aims to welcome guests again sometime in 2023.
“Anchor Inn & Cottages offers a slice of old-school Sanibel charm, prioritizing relaxation and an outdoorsy vibe over fussy luxury. I appreciate that it's pet-friendly and close to both bike paths and dining on Periwinkle Way, while still providing the essentials for a comfortable stay, including beach gear. This is a solid, unpretentious choice for those looking to unwind and explore the island.”
