I had the pleasure of visiting Sanibel Island for the first time,going over the bridge was like leaving all your cares behind, the Biking, seashell beaches,the wild lives, the sunsets,and the people being so friendly take your breath away,but most outstanding event was staying in the Calossa room at the palm-view Inn I loved the colors, it was spacious, clean...

We are nature photographers and so much in love with the Island's character, its people, its quaint small town atmosphere and the Island's emphasis on preservation awareness of its natural resources. We would not consider staying anywhere else while visiting this unique barrier island! The nature trails, the bird life and preservation efforts that Sanibel has enacted to preserve this... More

We loved these cozy cottages just a short 5 minute walk to the beach. The owner was there everyday and answered all our questions with very friendly suggestions. We have found our new Sanibel home. More

The location is perfect, a short walk to the beach and a short bike ride to shops and restaurants. What I really loved was having so much space, our own little house to relax at after exploring the island. It was so clean and complete with a kitchen and living room. There is even onsite laundry offered, a grill and... More

My family and dogs stay here a few times a year for the past 5 years. It is clean, quiet inexpensive and best of all dog friendly. It is a short walk to the beach on donax rd to a great central part of Sanibel island beach. It is never crowded. It is very close to the central business area... More

My husband and I stay at the Palmview whenever we go to Sanibel, which is 2-3 times/year. We have been coming here for years. It is DOG FRIENDLY!!! We take our 3 dachshunds, and they love it. Sanibel is one of the few beaches in Florida that allows dogs on the beach. There are only a few places you can... More

Just returned from a week's stay at the Palm View and found it very cozy and comforable for the price. Clean room, nicely furnished, nice fluffy towels and a king sized bed! I have stayed at small inns before and they have not been as nice. We had the use of bikes, that while not exactly new, were fine for... More

The PalmView is and small hotel with just a handful of units. It's not a fancy, high end motel with room service, or even daily maid service. But it's very comfortable, very clean and very inexpensive in comparison to other Sanibel lodgings. It's also very quiet. Since there's no pool (but there is a hot tub), there's not a lot... More

I was really turned off by the service. Upon our arrival we were not shown or advised of the amenities on the premises, ie grill, washer/dryer, hot tub and any guidelines or hours of use. No inquiry into our trip or any other small talk. The key had been left in our room upon our arrival, but we had not... More
