We have stayed at the Wicker Inn twice. If you only like 5 star resorts this may not be the place for you. We prefer places with charm and ambiance; this is it. It is right on the beach. We found it to be very quiet and relaxing. It is very clean with very basic amenities in the kitchenette. It... More

The Wicker Inn was everything that my wife and I wanted to celebrate our new life together. This quaint beach-side retreat offered the privacy and intimacy that we wanted, while still being within walking distance of a handful of casual and elegant dining spots. Plus, there’s a great deli directly across the street! Our suite (Sunflower) had a great cottage... More

This is the second year we visit the Wicker Inn. We love it, all four of us (from age 55 to 13). The Inn is just the right size for us, and the cottage we stayed at - Magnolia - is a charming place with two bedrooms to fit the needs of parents and 2 teenagers. Most important it is... More

Quietly efficient describes the staff. Class accommodation describes the suits. Facilities are superb with a smashing swimming pool and under cover lounging area (for those not wishing to expose to the sun). The beach is reached within 3 minutes of the venue. Parking on site is convenient. For those who prefer to shop and dine locally, Harry's store and restaurant... More

MY wonderful Mother In Law has rented 4 of the cottages for her kids and her grandchildren to have family time together every time we have been there. We haven't been... More

My family spent a week at the Wicker Inn, and I don't think I've ever been so relaxed. Our cottage (Primrose) was charming, clean, and very well-equipped. We couldn't see the beach from our suite, but it was just a short walk away - we walked back & forth from there to the beach many times each day to get... More

I love this beach resort and would definitely come back, however, I really think some investment should be made in a wireless router so the customers don't have to sit outside the office to get a signal. In this day and age, customers expect free wireless for the value and like to enjoy access to the Internet world in the... More

We spent a lovely few days at the immaculate Wicker Inn in late November. It seemed like spending time at a cottage on the beach surrounded by well kept natural landscaping. Our unit was modest, extremely well kept with a comfortable bed and good linens and we observed that the units are constantly being upgraded. The beach is footsteps away... More

As in a previous stay, Ed and his staff do an amazing job keeping this quaint beachfront retreat just right, thanks Ed! We enjoyed the beach, gulf of mexico and the resort pool.
