Just a few blocks from the white sands of Fort Myers Beach, the Flamingo Inn is a good budget option for a family beach vacation. Whether you choose to relax on the beach or you prefer a more active beach vacation, Fort Myers Beach has it all. There are wave runner and boat rentals nearby, as well as fishing charters and parasailing. And several family-friendly restaurants, as well as bicycle rentals, are within walking distance of the hotel.

The simple, low-rise hotel has an old Florida feel and perks like free onsite parking, free internet, and refrigerators and microwaves in all rooms. So as long as you’re not expecting anything fancy, you’ll be satisfied. The property is pet-friendly, too, and since it’s only two stories high, it’s easy to get outside to walk your dog when you need to.
