Innisbrook Golf Resort - Salamander Hotels & Resorts

ke sure our reception was everything we dreamed of. Kaitlyn ultimately suggested Inverness Foyer for our small intimate reception, and it was absolutely perfect! Our guests raved about the dinner. Our cake was even prettier than the Pinterest pictures I sent over. Our wedding photos on the golf course were absolutely stunning. The breakfast the next morning was also a hit! I love this venue and I highly recommend it!

inator that took over, Cindi, was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. I know that the hospitality business suffered during the pandemic so it was understandable that our coordinators left, but of course it was discouraging and stressful. The food was amazing - 4 appetizers, entrees, and cake all included in the price per guest. Service was top tier and very accommodating. And the entire resort was beautiful. The setting was stunning for pictures. I just loved all trees!! We did our ceremony under the tenth tee oak tree which was so dreamy and romantic. The Edinburgh ballroom was perfect as well. Since this was a "covid wedding" we used the entire ballroom despite only having about 60 guests. Cindi allowed me to make my own floor plan, which was great for a control freak like myself. We spaced out the tables and used a larger dance floor, and the room looked great - it didn't look stuffed like sardines as I've seen happen in some wedding receptions, but definitely did not look empty whatsoever. It was perfect. We also loved that the ceremony site, reception site, and hotel rooms were all on the same campus. Shuttles are included as well which was super convenient as the resort grounds are HUGE. We liked that the grounds were so big, as it gave a sense of privacy knowing that our hotel room wasn't even in the same litle building as any of our guests. We had a good amount of guests who flew in, and they loved staying at the resort for a few extra days before and after the wedding - it was a perfect mini vacation for them, with different pools and restaurants all on site. To top it off, we were allowed to have our dog with us, which was incredibly important. She stayed in the hotel room during the ceremony and reception, but joined us for the ceremony rehearsal as well as first-look photos. Our room was complimentary for us, and we didn't have to pay any extra fee for our dog which was nice. All in all, I could not have been happier with Innisbrook as our wedding venue and highly recommend it.

all our concerns at ease. She made sure we had everything we needed and got us new keys, food when we got ready, and other small things that made a difference. We were able to practice our choreographed first dance the day before without anyone seeing. The rooms were big and spacious, and the night before our rooms were in separate buildings which was a major plus. Innisbrook worked with us on everything we needed, we are so happy we had our wedding there!

which made our lives significantly easier. The food and the cake were well beyond our expectations.

The gave us a complimentary hotel room suite as well and through ought the entire process they were super great to us! Beautiful resort, great people to work with, 10/10 would recommend!!

and I first toured we fell in love with the venue (even though morning of the tour I had to email her asking for a gate pass because she had previously said she would send one and never did), but we forgot all about it because we loved the ceremony location and the meeting manager was very pleasant in person. After touring other venues we kept thinking Innisbrook was exactly what we were looking for, so we decided on this venue. I scheduled another tour 2 weeks later for a Friday for my parents to see it. I was told sometime that week she would send us an email with a gate pass & tell us where to meet. Never got an email. Morning of our tour I called her office, no answer. Called her cell, no answer. Called a general Innisbrook operator who just transferred me to her office, with no answer. We had to just show up and have the guard at the gate call around & find her to figure out where to meet her. She gave us another tour and said there was a wedding that day she had to get back to so she would send us the contract by Monday (11-26-18) for us to sign and pay deposit. Monday came, Tuesday came (I sent a follow up email this day asking if she was almost finished with the contract), Wednesday came, no response to anything. I found the director of catering’s number on the Innisbrook website, thought I would call him directly to see what’s going on. But guess what? No answer. I did leave a message though explaining the situation, and 10 mins later got an email saying it’s a super busy week and the contract would be sent same day. To this day we have no contract, but THANK GOD we didn’t sign and put the deposit down because we would have later realized what a huge mistake it would’ve been. I normally don’t post reviews but this venue was too disappointing to not let others know. No matter how beautiful the property may be, the amount of unnecessary stress is not worth it.

roperty. It was nice to park the car when we got there and not have to get back in it until after the wedding. And the salon on property was amazing as well. I would highly highly highly recommend Innisbrook for a wedding or event.

and honestly overall the best coordinator I’ve ever seen. Ladonne compliments her in the best way and is there to support from every angle. They made us feel like we were the only wedding ever even thought they have so many each week. We are so in love with our experience and can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t be. We loved Innisbrook because of the old Florida feel without being a beachy location. The Spanish moss and green sight lines made for a destination wedding people were excited to go to. Can’t say enough about this amazing place, you can’t go wrong with this venue.

d. Throughout the entire process, Melissa, Ladonne, and Sara were quick to follow up and an absolute pleasure to work with. On wedding day, I wasn't worried about a single thing. We were able to drop off any decor, signs, etc. the week before and explain where each thing should go so that we didn't have to worry about it on wedding week. Everything was absolutely perfect and EVERYTHING they said they'd do was done correctly. Not a single ball was dropped, and that's impressive for how many moving pieces go in to executing a wedding. Innisbrook itself was beautiful, well-maintained, and a great place for people who were traveling (and even some locals) to spend the weekend. They took full advantage of the spa, the golf courses, the restaurants, and pools. Our ceremony was at the tree and our reception was in the Inverness ballroom. The shuttles were great and all of our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about both spots! You can not go wrong with Innisbrook or Melissa, Ladonne and Sara :) If I could give 10 stars I would!

hing went smoothly and on time. I really cannot say enough about Melissa and Innisbrook! The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, and the rooms are roomy and well priced in the wedding block.

t the wedding was. The food was incredible. Most of our guests told me it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding. If you are lucky enough to work with Rick or Jackie, you are absolutely blessed. They are coordinators, not wedding planners, but they sure work hard enough to be your wedding planner. There was not a single request we made that wasn't met with a smile and an "of course we'll make it happen." Again, it was a dream wedding and there's no place else I would rather have my wedding than Innisbrook!!!

We had our rehearsal dinner at the Turnbery Pub on site which was amazing! They made the BEST grooms cake for my husband. The ceremony and reception were perfect. The island tree was absolutely gorgeous and ideal for an outdoor ceremony. We had our reception at Stirling Hall which was transformed into a beautiful space. Dinner was fantastic and we even had a late nacho bar that out guests still can't talking about! We have received nothing but compliments on how beautiful the whole weekend was. Melissa Gordon was our coordinator and she was nothing short of fantastic throughout the entire planning process. She was always responsive and took everything I asked her and ran with it! Anybody looking for a beautiful Florida wedding should look no further. Book Innisbrook now!

riends. I can now say without any hesitation, we were not wrong! In fact the venue and our coordinator, Melissa Gordon, far exceeded our expectations! Most venues provide a day of coordinator, but Melissa was much more than that. Everything I didn't think of, she was on top of. Not a single detail was overlooked, and she brought my vision to life in a way I could never have imagined. When anything came up, she took care of it before it became an issue. We received so many compliments on how beautiful the ballroom looked. Melissa made sure every last detail was the way I had planned, and she even invited us to preview the room before the guests entered, a special moment for us.  The food was delicious and the chef accommodated every dietary restriction and request with no problem. I designed my own cake, and it was replicated perfectly.  Our guests loved staying on the property. The rooms were very nice and the amenities were wonderful! The Loch Ness pool was a family favorite. Innisbrook provided my husband and I a beautiful suite with lovely touches for the night of the wedding. The best part was that everything looked and felt like it should have cost a fortune, but in fact it was very affordable. We were made to feel special every step of the way, and we couldn't have asked for anything better! Thank you Innisbrook and staff, especially Melissa Gordon, for a unforgettable wedding event that we will treasure forever.

the rooms were clean, the staff was very responsive. On the day of the wedding, everyone made everything run smoothly. From the bus driver to the chef everyone wanted to make sure that I, as the bride, was happy. LOVED THIS PLACE!!!! Will be returning for a stay-cation soon!

offer a place for the ceremony, reception and do the catering, decorating, liquor, cake and give you a list of vendors that are reasonably priced for anything additional, and a stay in their one bedroom suite for two nights all at a very reasonable price that you can adjust to fit your budget. You can make it a weekend wedding of fun!

tter then that. The food was exceptional and we received a lot of compliments from people saying it was not your typical bland wedding food. I would highly recommend this to any bride and groom, especially if you want an outdoor wedding!

ake I found on pinterest that involved a lot of detail and work. Everyone warned me that little things would go wrong, but NOTHING did, that's how great Melissa Gordon and the staff at Innisbrook were!! We can't say enough good things about her or the place!

reciated being able to take the tram to their hotel rooms instead of having to drive after a night of fun. Everyone also enjoyed the golf and pool, although I wish we could have gotten a better rate for our golf rounds. I would highly recommend this location to anyone, but especially couples with out-of-town guests!

ed, Innisbrook has a great crew to work with. They can manipulate pricing as well and everything is worth what you pay for!

and so was the service.

at you have a wedding coordinator in addition to the planner from the venue because it is such a large property, it is impossible for one person to cover all the territory day of.
