Fantastic pet friendly, beach front location. You could easily walk to the beautiful beaches along a boardwalk and trail. It will be even easier when the additional paths are repaired. We had a wonderful time shelling. The three bedroom and 2 bath unit was very spacious, and the wrap around lanai with ocean view was even better. Everything was very clean, and well stocked with towels, kitchen items, and nice bedding. The pool area was clean as well. An overall peaceful and beachy vibe. Staff was very friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Annual August at Signal Inn

I have actually been coming to Signal Inn when I was a teenager with my family. Now I am a grandmother and love it just as much as great place to relax and extremely clean and peaceful. And being able to bring our fur babies is a key. I hate to leave them. Pam has always been an excellent source and very welcoming. We have been coming every August for the last several years for our anniversary. And try to visit a couple times a year.

Sanibel is still beautiful and still recovering

Signal Inn is in a nice location, quick path to the beach. Really enjoyed the small size of the property and not being in a high rise, it felt more relaxed. The price was very high compared to the value of the unit. With taxes and fees I paid 546/night, yet it was very clear that management didn't want to provide soap, toilet paper, dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent. We received one two-inch bar of soap in the bathroom, with tiny bottle of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. Enough for one night, definitely not enough for two people for a week. It was made clear that we were expected to buy our own. Nearly every VRBO I've stayed in has provided at least more than one roll of toilet paper. We received two laundry pods for the week, and were asked to wash the towels upon departure. First, if you ask guests to wash towels, don't charge such a big housekeeping fee. There were no typical kitchen items like coffee, sugar, salt & pepper, cooking oil, spices. We had to buy everything. Additionally, there was a dog that barked every morning and every night. The property information binder also mentioned the problem with barking dogs and asked guests not to leave their dogs unattended on the lanai. Oh well. If the property was less expensive (I've stayed at similar type units for 400/night) I would've understood the lack of supplies. The unit was clean but the kitchen and bathroom were original and have not been updated.
