“The location, staff, and rooms are incredible.”
From the reviews
Stay here if you love historic hotels, antiques and a spacious outdoor porch overlooking the town. Quiet night’s sleep in Room #35 (Jimmy Buffett also slept here). Enjoyed the early evening music in the courtyard. Staff was friendly and efficient. Easy to walk around the waterfront. I would definitely go back.
The location, staff, and rooms are incredible. We are definitely going to stay again and the hotel reminds us of old Florida charm! Keep up the great work.
Getting married at Island Hotel & Restaurant
Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
