Created by joining three old houses, this buttercup-yellow waterfront inn is dominated by a bi-level wraparound porch with a commanding view of Matanzas Bay. Rooms are sumptuously decorated with four-poster beds and lots of rich brocades – for character, choose a room in the 1700s-era wing with cool crushed-coquina-shell walls, or inquire about the private Vilano Beach cottage.
