Perfect Sanibel Stay

Signal Inn continues to be our family's perfect place to stay. We have stayed in 17 twice and this time we were in 13. We could not have asked for either to be better. Everything was exceptionally clean and everything we needed was there. The kitchen was well equipped and so were the bathrooms. Our family will continue to stay at Signal Inn each year when we come seeking quiet family time and the perfect shell each year. I would highly recommend Signal Inn. They get five stars!

The wrap around porch was delightful. The pool was the main entertainment for the kids. The beach was beautiful and peaceful, uncrowded, and fun for the sand. Unfortunately we hit it at a time the bugs invaded and the pool was a safe retreat for the kids!

We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the wrap-around porch and that the pool became such a fun gathering spot for the kids. It’s wonderful that you were able to soak up the beauty of the beach as well — even if those pesky seasonal bugs tried to steal the spotlight. We’re glad the pool offered a perfect retreat! We truly appreciate you choosing to stay with us and hope to welcome you back for an even more perfect, bug-free getaway next time!

Area and property were as detailed and had no issues. Beach is a short stroll and was pleasant. Only issue were the no see ems, those little guys were brutal. Would stay again in the future.

Hi there! Thank you for stopping in at Signal Inn Unit 13! Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad to hear the property and area met your expectations and that you enjoyed the short stroll to the beach. We completely understand about the no-see-ums — they can be a challenge in our coastal area — but we’re happy it didn’t take away from your overall experience. It’s wonderful to know you’d stay with us again, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future!

Great place for families with kids! The shared pool is lovely and the walk to the beach is quick and easy. We especially enjoyed the wraparound lanai with a view of the pool, and the beach chairs included with the house. We really appreciated the updated interior, although there were some issues with wiring as there were several power outlets that did not work or were loose. If you are looking for a quiet/peaceful stay this would probably not be my first choice (lots of kids around being noisy and having a great time!), but it was just what we were looking for and we had a wonderful stay! Thanks so much for hosting us!

We had a wonderful family stay! Loved the location that was convenient to shopping and restaurants. The host was friendly and helpful, and the facility was as described. We appreciated the beach towels for each person, and all the chairs and beach toys. The only negative were the no-see-um bugs, and the slow to no cell service and internet. We realize there are some things the host cannot control. Inspite of that we still had a great stay and would recommend Signal Inn facilities. The kids are ready to come back.
