This historic Inn is beautiful and well maintained. The original elevator was amazing and the fact that the rooms do not have TVs was wonderful. Forced relaxation which we both needed. We took the boat tour which was very informative and a beautiful trip with a lot of wildlife and four manatees. One of us really enjoyed taking a dip in the spring, too cold for me. This Inn is well worth the visit.

Probably one of the nicest places I’ve stayed! So much history! Since they filmed two Tarzan movies and “The Creature from the Black Lagoon” it gives off a 1930’s Hollywood vibe!
