    We had a wonderful month on Sanibel after having to wait for 2years because of Covid. Pelicans Perch was as luxurious as ever. All utilities provided and a beautiful pool. One small criticism as we are from UK we need our cups of tea regularly and an electric kettle would be very useful.

      David, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! We are so glad that you had a wonderful time after having to take a 2 year hiatus due to covid travel bans, and we look forward to seeing you again in the sun! Sorry about the electric tea kettle not being a requirement in the house.

    a guest from Oley, PA recommends this vacation rental

    We stayed at Pelican’s Perch for a month and it was heavenly. Located on a quiet street, it is a short walk to the beach and a short bike ride to Tarpon Bay Road. Plenty of room for the three of us. I loved sitting on the lanai with the sliders open or the front porch to enjoy the fresh air. Nice fenced in pool area. The house had two beach umbrellas, multiple chairs and a great little cart to pull it all to the beach. The TV was a bit of a challenge at first to turn on but once we figured out which remote to use, it was fine. Overall, a great stay. We didn’t want to leave and would definitely stay again.

    As for SBL Vacations, they earned a six star rating in my book and for multiple reasons. They will undoubtedly get my business again. Their booking and check in processes are very easy. The were great about providing info in their app both for standard info and also details about what to do during Hurricane Eta. I felt like they were “with us” from the beginning of the trip to the end. Their customer service felt very much like a personal travel concierge service instead of a rental company. I worked with Ann and she was so pleasant and easy to talk to. She answered so many questions for me and never made me feel like I was asking too much. Then, before Hurricane ETA came through, she eased my mind about the storm as I was ready to evacuate. Her kindness and patience with me were so appreciated and added to the great customer experience we had with SBL.

    A great location and excellent vacation. The property was completely renovated in 2014 and finishes are beautiful. The pool is great. The beach is a 5 minute walk. The home requires basic maintenance; window, grout, & upholstery cleaning. Otherwise beautiful.

    We rented Pelican ́s Perch for more than a month. Everything was perfect. We will not miss a second of this vacation. The house is great and the location too. There are only three minutes walk to beach access 1 and you are direct on the best beaches of Sanibel. It was great to work with Sanibel Vacatios. Thank you. We will come back.

    Katie M from Elmhurst, Il recommends this vacation rental

    My family and I have been vacationing on Sanibel since I was five years old. Now, at the age of 37, I can honestly say our most recent stay at Pelican's Perch was the best we have ever enjoyed.

    The house is stunning on multiple levels. Decor, cleanliness, and proximity to the beach are all five-star. The lanai overlooking the pool and beautifully landscaped yard was an especial treat, and my family and I spent many hours on it as we took in sunsets and watched fleeting storms roll in. The pool itself was also a delight to my children, and guests are provided with everything from beach towels to swim toys.

    The only thing that matches the impressiveness of the house itself is the professionalism of SBL staff. We have worked with other rental agencies in the past, but SBL is truly state of the art. They are quick to respond to any questions and are clearly eager to accommodate guests and help them experience the best of the island.

    As we travel with six young kids and two dogs, driving from Illinois to Florida is no small matter. Our time on Sanibel is always a luxury that we look forward to and save up for all year long. Thanks to Rob, Carly, and the other folks at SBL, every minute we were at Pelican's Perch was well worth whatever leg work went into preparing for our trip. We are already planning on booking with them next year. They make a vacation much more than a month away from home--our stay was more akin to feeling like we had finally arrived home . . . to our own personal slice of heaven for 30 days.

    • Manager Responded on 7/5/2017

      We are so happy that you are pleased with our services and we certainly look forward in seeing your family again here on the island!
