The room was so clean and fresh. The staff was friendly and polite and took an interest in you as a person staying as a guest, like family. The location is perfect. Right on the canal and walkable to all the sites, plus the bus station as you can take that to Lover's Key State Park.

Resort was awesome, our room was on bottom floor, walk out back to your private patio right on the canal. Bed was good, pillows were a bit hard. Bathroom, shower, very clean. I loved the ceiling fan above my bed. Resturant was in building right next door. Outdoor seating on both levels of resturant on water. Live music for dinner. Very centeral located to Fort Myers beach. So much to do and see from Resort. Looked like a nice size pool, we didnt go in it went to beach instead. We liked it so much we booked the room again for the next night!

I love it! I will definitely be back. Very close to the beach and restaurants. Staff is very friendly and food at the restaurant is great! I love the marina and watching the boats arrive to the restaurant. Nice place. Nice people. My room was clean and had everything I need. Parking was very convenient.

The girls and I LOVED it here. We had a patio that overlooked the river and we could see and hear the live music from our porch. They called me early to check in, which was really nice! The gal that checked me in was so friendly. And our room! Wow! Full sized fridge, microwave and stove top and dishes. And we didn’t even have to leave the premises to eat and have some drinks. Everything about this stay was perfect. Well, except the traffic here, seems like everyone wants to be in this area, and I can see why!

Unfortunately, this turned out to be part of a trip that went south. The hotel was older, but in good shape. The outside doors are not a plus for us. It did have a great restaurant bar next door and the amenities were actually ok, but the area around it really didn't have much to do due to the hurricane 1.5 years ago. They are really slow to rebuild the area.

This place was a gem of a pick for staying with 2 girlfiriends for a short girls' trip. It's in a perfect location. We were able to walk everywhere: the beach, the restaurants, the marketplace near the pier. The hotel staff was terrific: very friendly and helpful. The hotel also has it's own restaurant which is attached and has seating at two levels next to the canal. It's fun to watch the boat traffic on the canal going under the main bridge to the island. We also had free parking in front of the hotel and because of the central location, we never moved our car. Finding parking in the area is difficult and expensive so having your own parking space right next to the hotel was a big plus. We were delighted with our room. It had a kitchen and enough room tor the 3 of us to be comfortable. We had so much fun!!!We will be back!!!!

The staff was super friendly, the hot tub was hot just like they said and we had a cute little villa to ourselves. Location was easy to walk to food and beaches. We were just passing thru so only stayed 1 night.

Disappointing Stay at Matanzas Inn My recent visit to Matanzas Inn was quite disheartening. Right from the start, my room was plagued with an unpleasant odor that made it difficult to relax. This issue alone significantly impacted my comfort during the stay. Moreover, the Hotel Office area was filled with a strong cigarette smell, which was quite bothersome, especially for non-smokers like myself. This made any time spent in the office area rather unpleasant. A notable inconvenience was the lack of proper curtains in the room. The existing blinds failed to block out the light effectively, resulting in a brightly lit room at night and disrupting my sleep. What truly astounded me was the lack of basic amenities like room service. Being informed that we had to request essentials like towels or toilet paper ourselves was quite surprising and, frankly, unacceptable for a hospitality establishment. This lack of service was not only inconvenient but also a clear indicator of poor customer care. In summary, the quality of the services and facilities at Matanzas Inn does not justify the price. The combination of these issues made my stay far from enjoyable, and it's safe to say that the inn falls short of basic hospitality standards.

The staff is incredible nice and efficient, the property is super clean and beautifully maintained. Unfortunately the weekend I spent there was cold and cloudy but the hot tub and warm pool came to the rescue. I did receive the vouchers for the free drinks and they were fantastic. In fact, the food, drinks and the view of the bay from the bar are reasons to not even leave the hotel. The beach and the few restaurants and shops that are open are just a few steps away from the hotel. Loved my stay and my only complaint was that I wish I had stayed longer.

Since this was our first time to stay following the hurricane, we didn’t know exactly what to expect. Thankfully, the Inn was operating smoothly and we had no issues. There was and will be continuing construction in the area, but for our purposes prior to departing on the Key West Express, we were quite pleased.👌😎

Matanza’s is a Ft Myers legacy. It’s exactly what you expect. Old school, right in the thick of things, great pool… Phenomenal restaurant too. Walk to everything or we’ve gotten picked up on the boat as well. My family LIVES in Ft Myers so we stay with them…but we always end up sneaking off to Matanza’s for a breather😂. Nice Place. We like it.

Hidden gem! We love Ft Myers beach and had never stayed at the Inn. They had availability for a last minute weekend away with friends. The new rooms are so nice, clean and perfect for what we wanted. Patti, Penny and Jeff were so friendly and accommodating. We will be back soon!
