About this property
Pet-Friendly / Family-Friendly Waterfront Vacation Rental + Free Boat Dockage!
ANGLER'S INN in Matlacha, Florida is a pet-friendly waterfront "Botel" accommodation located between Cape Coral and Pine Island. Come by land or sea and keep your boat just outside your fully outfitted efficiency unit. Launch your boat just across the canal at the Matlacha Community Park where you can park and forget about it until time to haul out. Angler's Inn Motel/Botel is the perfect location for kayak and canoe paddlers to explore the local waters of Matlacha Pass and Pine Island Sound. Fantastic fishing for Snook, Redfish, Trout and Tarpon is just outside your door. The white sand beaches of Sanibel, Cayo Costa and Captiva are just a short boat ride away. While exploring be sure to stop in at Cabbage Key for your "Cheeseburger in Paradise" made famous by Jimmy Buffet. We offer bicycles to visit "downtown" and all it has to offer; or just walk as all is nearby. Angler's Inn's affordable nightly, weekly and monthly rates will let you rest easily as you dream about the "Big Catch" from the boat just outside your back door screened-in patio. See you soon in our little slice of paradise! Room is equipped with queen bed + sleeper sofa, kitchenette with refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot, toaster, etc. BBQ Grill is out back for your use also.

About the host
Hosted by Janette
Born in 1961 - we are travelers and water-bugs. We don't like to sit still and we love to meet new people. One of us is from Mastic Beach (NY) and the other near Baltimore, Maryland. We are members of local charities (Matlacha Hookers, Civic Associations, Elks and Moose) hoping to pay it forward as much as possible. We enjoy scuba diving, backpacking and camping, attending Blues Festivals, Seafood Festivals and just floating on a boat! If we are unsuccessful fishing that day, we just walk over to the seafood store and get some fresh fish from their boat! And, owning a small "Botel" means we usually have a guest room when family comes to visit :-)
Why they chose this property
Raised in and around salt water our whole lives - moving to Matlacha with its Old Florida feel and charm was a no-brainer! We vacationed here in 2007 and staring at retirement, having our little "mom & pop" motel allows us to earn a living and to meet people from all over the glove who want to share our experience of living where time seems to have stood still. We are blessed to have found our slice of paradise.
What makes this property unique
Located in a historic small town that's kitchy, artsy and rural. Off the beaten path, Angler's Inn is on a quiet side street in a nice neighborhood walking distance to shops, restaurants, and pubs. Short drives or boat rides will get you to see other areas on the coast. So much to see, so much to do yet you feel like you've stepped back in time...
