What guests say
7.9 / 10 · Good on Booking.com, from 345 guest reviews
Islander Inn earns consistently positive sentiment for its unbeatable walkable location and friendly, accommodating staff, with most guests happy to return. However, recurring issues around room wear and tear, ongoing construction disruption, noisy nights, and underwhelming outdoor facilities temper the overall experience. Value for money divides guests, with some finding it well-priced and others feeling it runs a little costly.
