Olde Marco Island Inn and Suites
A secluded haven in southwest Florida
General Information
What to expect: Built in 1883, the original building now houses the lobby and restaurant, richly adorned with Victorian decor. Guest suites are located in two newer buildings. With its relaxed, tropical ambience, lush, native-plant gardens, and gorgeous sunset views, Olde Marco Island Inn is great place to relax and enjoy Marco Island.
Amenity highlights: The Inn's grounds and gardens create a charmed version of paradise, with a heated swimming pool for more active guests. The Inn itself is restored with tropical Victorian decor. A new addition to the Inn is Bistro Soleil, ensconced in the 120-year old original building, which offers fine French cuisine.
Insider tip: The Briggs Nature Center on Shell Island Road has a half-mile boardwalk through a section of Florida's endangered scrubland ecosystem, home to the scrub jay and the gopher tortoise. Operated by the Conservancy of Southwest Florida, the center offers ranger-guided nature excursions and a self-guided canoe trip, with canoes for rent.
