We spent two nights at Estero Inn and very much enjoyed our relaxing stay. The Inn is very clean and right on the water, next to a Sailing School. We enjoyed watching the youth in their sail boats learning how to sail. It is very close to shopping and restaurants but separate enough that it was very quiet. And I love that is has a Tesla charger!
