Host profile image
We are a local family on Sanibel Island that owns and operates the Anchor Inn & Cottages. We've owned vacation rental properties for years and recently started with our first hotel, The Anchor Inn. We've poured our hearts into renovating this project, and it shows throughout every detail on the property. You'll often see us at the property running the office, cleaning up, or meeting guests. We genuinely want you to experience the adventure and charm that Sanibel has to offer. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us!

Why they chose this property

The Anchor Inn & Cottages is right in the heart of all the action on Sanibel. We're within a couple of hundred feet of some of the most popular restaurants on the island. Also, we're right next to the Bailey Homestead Preserve, offering a beautiful nature walk and experience whenever you desire. At the Anchor Inn, we offer free bike rentals, so anything that you want to do on Sanibel Island is easily accessible throughout its 25 miles of bike trails. Two popular beaches are just a 5-minute bike ride from our location, with many more within a 10-15 minute bike ride. To add to this fantastic location, The Anchor Inn is situated on over 2 acres of land, with more than half of it dedicated to natural areas and a pond teeming with wildlife that you can see when walking throughout the property or some of the Pondview rooms.
