Hotel
One of our very favorite things about Boca Grande is the beautiful and historic Gasparilla Inn! We highly suggest booking your accommodations through the Gasparilla Inn as quickly as possible, as there are a limited number of rooms at the Inn. There are no online reservations. Please call to reserve your room. You may reference the Straeter-Warnock Wedding, however if they say the block is full, there may still be rooms left at the Inn and there is no price difference. The Gasparilla Inn does not provide special rates for weddings or wedding blocks. Feel free to book under general availability! Aside from standard hotel rooms, there are also cottages and villas that are owned by the Inn that surround the historic hotel. These are also available and may be a good option. For further questions regarding the cottage and villa prices, feel free to email Molly at straeter.molly@gmail.com and I will send you over a document that explains those accommodations.
