Me and my partner who has Multiple Sclerosis and is a cancer survivor stayed at the Bridgewater Inn and it was great! We wanted a quaint fishing trip and the Bridgewater was perfect. Open your door and cast your pole. The staff were all helpful, friendly and the managers were very nice. With only a few rooms, it felt like... More

I have been going there for 10 years and aboslutely love the place. The managers are very friendly and helpful. Room is always clean. I did not find the bridge construction distracting at all (was interestting to watch). Can't wait to go back there.

We own a business on Pine Island and often choose to stay overnight in Matlacha to enjoy all that the area has to offer. We love the Bridgewater for many reasons: it's waterfront location (you can kayak pretty much right from your room), it's proximity to all of the bars, restaurants and shops in Matlacha (you can walk to pretty...

My husband, dog, & I checked in on 12/18/11 & were delighted at the "old Florida" charm at the Bridgewater. The innkeepers could not have been nicer or more helpful wtih their suggestions or directions. The bridge construction might be a bit distracting, but not to the lovely birds & dolphins we watched every morning & evening. One of the... More

Had the opportunity to stay at the Bridgewater while on an impromptu trip to Matlacha, St James City and Boquilla. The location is itself spectacular, and the Inn was awesome. The rooms were very clean and extremely comfortable. Not to mention, the management & staff could not have been more customer service conscious and accommodating. I was convenient to all... More

And more; you can walk to a number of gorgeous restaurants and of course the world famous Berts Bar. If you... More

This was the 5th time we've stayed at Bridgewater Inn, and this time we booked the entire inn for the weekend. There were 19 in our group, and we had a great time just relaxing, fishing, eating, and socializing. Bridgewater Inn is very low-key and comfortable. The management made every effort to make our stay enjoyable, and I would recommend... More

After 2.5 hrs of driving from TPA we arrived at the Inn and immediately noticed the mess because of the bridge construction. Not enough parking and the constant banging noise of metal over metal. Dust everywhere. We booked suite 5. They girl kindly took us to the room, very open and comfortable, with everything we needed, but the room is... More
