It was ok. No ice cube trays, or non-slip mat in the slippery shower. There is no one at the hotel, ever, so if there is a problem they send someone….half an hour later. Well located. Great bed. You have to check in at another hotel and get parking pass, etc. A bit odd. Would not stay there again

Nice little suite, but the bathroom was very tiny. Lightbulb in the bathroom was flashing, so I had to take one from the bedroom to put in there. Staff was very nice and helpful.

Found ants in the kitchen. Air conditioner was very loud. However the convenient location and low price makes this place attractive.

8/10 Very good

This was our first time visiting the island and we knew we wanted to be in walking distance to all the shops and restaurants and beach. The Palmetto Inn is in an amazing location and super convenient. However, the place could really use some upgrades. I had read about the beds being hard as cement and they definitely are. The bedding and towels are basic and not very comfortable. Also, our bathroom was very small. I hope sometime in the future some money and time can be spent enhancing a beautiful, but old, building. I will say the management staff was amazing and only a phone call away when we needed something. Check in was easy at the Boca Grande hotel. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Had an amazing stay at the Palmetto Inn. Place was newly renovated, clean and spacious. Walking distance to everything. Staff was remarkably friendly and helpful. Will be certain to stay there again when we return to Boca grande. Highly recommend it.

The room was clean. Remodeled in 2026 so all is new. The problem is the walls. You can heat everything being said in the next room. There is no insulation between the rooms. Also a 1” gap in the bottom of door going into common hallway, so all hallway noise comes into your room. Palmetto Inn was apparently a house turned into a hotel and the walls were never insulated between the rooms. We stayed in the Snook room which was adjacent to the Flounder room and could hear everything being said by our neighbors. They arrived late as were trying to go to sleep so it was annoying that their noise and conversation kept us awake.

The option to stay for only one night was the best feature of the facility.

Great location, but really needed some help on the inside.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The Palmetto Inn was so quiet and peaceful. It's an easy walk to the beach and many restaurants. Even though check in happens at a different location, the communication was clear and it was an easy process. We didn't expect a well-stocked kitchen, but it was a nice surprise. Great stay at a clean and cozy old Florida property with modern updates.

The building is neat and different. It’s like being in a small apartment complex. The carpeting in the common areas should be replaced, but other than that, the stay was great. We would stay there again. The GM was very nice and easy to speak with.

Needs update Great location and Management!

Hotel needs a remodel. Pictures on Hotels.com are very old. Room was unsatisfactory but Management quickly made things right and put us in another property and were very professional. Great location, once remodeled this would be a great choice. Is scheduled for remodel this autumn.

Convenient location but the property is a pit. Very old with minimal maintenance. Would never stay here again or recommend it to anyone
Verified review

The check in experience was super. They went out of their way to accommodate our request to put items in a fridge. The accommodation however needs a 100% gut job. The only positive is location. We joked that they charged us $300.00 too much. The rate was $299.00.

Small bedroom - hard to get into bed, tiny shower. Rest of the unit is nice enough although old, out dated, floors not level. Kitchen woefully under supplied - plenty of (mismatched) dishes and cookware but only 1 dinner plate, 1 spoon, 3 forks, 1 cocktail glass, no wine glasses, a single ice-cube tray. But what did I expect in a bargain unit on such an over-priced island?

Not the BR you think

FYI private bathroom is down the hall. Very inconvenient did not know when I booked. Parking is on street. Old building but the location is what sells it.

Love this location BUT....The stained and musty carpet in the hallway and stairs is just beyond old and nasty. Please replace this...its well over due and it smells. Please update this room for the price paid. The couch in Room 6 (where we stayed) is hard and very uncomfortable (its a hard futon). Sleeping on this is a NO GO. The beach chairs we rented from the Boca Grande Resort (the owners of this property)were so crappy and rusted for what you pay. They ask you wash your own dishes and air dry (which is kind of nasty bc there is nothing to sanitize them with...maybe they sanitize after idk). TV remotes: there are 2 remotes loaded with "options" and ZERO instruction so unless you know exactly what you are doing with this...don't expect guidance. The neighbors to the left are a big dorm of ppl who work there close by I believe, and they were not friendly and very snotty actually. It is clear they don't love visitors.

i HATED having a detached bathroom from our room. Also the bathroom smelled really weird and did not have a fan/ventilation. The wood floors in our room were really sticky. The decor was off. The bed sheets/towels were clean though and it was a great location
