It’s over the top beautiful with exquisite choices in decor and everything we could need. We’ve stayed in homes all over the world and this is definitely one of our favorites. Thank you for sharing it with us! - Melanie Posted on 9/25/2026 ### Sanibel is Back! (5/5 stars) After spending 27 February’s in the same wonderful house my family was all expecting to be disappointed or nostalgic for Gray Gables which was destroyed by hurricane Ian. Much to our surprise and happiness, Oelican Perch was perfect. Our new February home away from home. - Anonymous Posted on 3/16/2026 ### Loved it! (5/5 stars) Our month of December at Pelican’s Perch was wonderful!The house is beautiful, comfortable and a perfect fit for our family of seven. The staff and ownership plays a huge part in the success of a vacation and SBL does a great job to insure we had one. - Anonymous Posted on 1/1/2026 ### Paradise island! (4/5 stars) We had a wonderful time in Pelicans Perch. The house is beautiful , very nicely decorated, very comfortable ( the beds are great) , the location of the house is really near the beach and it was nice to have bikes available. Just a few details needed to be fixed: bbq , all the insects in the swimming pool and around the house, inondation in the garden, no garage and no curtains in the room but the team was very reactive, efficient and friendly. Warm thanks to SBL team ! - Anonymous Posted on 9/15/2025 ### Pelican's Perch, Simply Beautiful! (5/5 stars) Pelicans Perch is a lovely home with a beautiful and spacious open design. The home has everything that you could possibly need while on vacation. Fully equipped Kitchen, washers and dryers on both floors. Wonderfully comfortable beds. Pelican's Perch provided enough space for everyone to have a place to rest and relax. We could watch the sunset from just about any room of the house or we could enjoy the sunset directly on the beach which was a very short walk from the house. The beach itself seemed almost private, the shelling was wonderful, and the water was beautiful. The owner of the home and Sanibel Vacations were wonderful, helpful, and responsive when we had any questions! Thank you so much to Sanibel Vacations and the owners of the property for all that you do to ensure that your guests have a lovely stay! - Anonymous Posted on 7/20/2025 ### "Pelican"s (Perch) Palace" (5/5 stars) One of the BEST homes on Sanibel Island; everything is brand new after the remodel from Hurricane Ian; it is spotless!. The property is a 2 minute walk to the beach; beautiful pool with three waterfalls and fountain; the pool is not covered with a screened lanai. It is extremely impressive. SBL Vacations is an awesome company to work with, their staff is second to none. I highly recommend this exquisite property to anyone thinking about a vacation stay on beautiful Sanibel Island. It is ideally located on West Gulf drive, with easy access to everything on Sanibel and Captiva Islands. It is a palace... - Anonymous Posted on 6/2/2025 ### Ideal Sanibel Getaway (5/5 stars) Wonderful location and well maintained beach home. The family thoroughly enjoyed the pool and our girls loved the upstairs loft. SBL team provides excellent service and always exceeds our expectations. - Anonymous Posted on 7/6/2022 ### A Month in Paradise (5/5 stars) 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. - Anonymous Posted on 7/5/2022 ### Wonderful pool home and location (5/5 stars) Great location and wonderfful management company. This was our second year. - Anonymous Posted on 2/4/2022 ### Gorgeous home close to beach (5/5 stars) Sanibel Vacations is such a great company to work with! The house itself is a perfect beach home steps away from the beach, with lots of amenities and updates. We had a spectacular time, as always! - Anonymous Posted on 8/8/2021 ### Wonderful House !! (5/5 stars) We enjoyed our stay at the Pelican Perch House. Perfect location with a few minute stroll to the beach along a quiet and short stretch of West Gulf Rd. The Neighborhood is very quiet. Kudos to the Pool crew, perfect temperature and clean care. Very nice decor, plenty of linens, and comfy beds. - Anonymous Posted on 4/6/2021 ### Close to Perfect !! (5/5 stars) Property and management company were fantastic .House and pool and lanai were great. Service requests were handled promptly. - Anonymous Posted on 2/3/2021 ### Wonderful stay! (5/5 stars) 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. - Anonymous Posted on 12/16/2020 ### Nice vacation (4/5 stars) Very good - Anonymous Posted on 12/3/2019 ### Great house and easy beach access (5/5 stars) Five years renting should say it all! - Anonymous Posted on 4/5/2019 ### 2 months on Sanibel West Ocean Blvd (4/5 stars) 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. - Anonymous Posted on 3/16/2019 ### Another Wonderful Stay (5/5 stars) Our 4th time at Pelican's Perch.The property is beautifully decorated and too big for the two of us but that's OK!Lovely Pool and the location is one of the best on Sanibel Island. - Anonymous Posted on 11/2/2018 ### Sanibel Vacation (5/5 stars) Liked the house and the pool. Perfect for our stay with our grandkids. Comfortable beds and pillows. Close to the #1 beach access for some serious shell hunting. - Anonymous Posted on 7/16/2018 ### Home from Home (5/5 stars) Our third stay at Pelican's Perch.It feels like home when we arrive & our stays are very relaxing & enjoyable.A beautiful home in a fantastic location on a very special island. - Anonymous Posted on 6/18/2018 ### All over perfect vacation/ Ein perfekter Urlaub (5/5 stars) 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. - Anonymous Posted on 12/8/2017 ### Far More Than a Vacation (5/5 stars) 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. - Anonymous Posted on 7/2/2017 ### Wonderful time on Sanibel (5/5 stars) We had a wonderful time again this year at Pelican's Perch on Sanibel. The property is perfect for us ( a little large for the two of us maybe!)and it is an excellent location just off West Gulf Drive with the beach just 4 minutes away.We are planning to return next year.The team at Sanibel Vacations are very friendly & helpful. - Anonymous Posted on 6/8/2017 ### Great for large family.

The owners have done an incredible job on the update. SBL is a great management company. I will be using them for my future stays. - Anonymous Posted on 12/7/2015 ### Great House (5/5 stars) Remodeling on this house was outstanding. Great location for beach people. Quiet area of the island. House has everything you need for an extended stay. - Anonymous Posted on 11/17/2015 ### A Month in Paradise (5/5 stars) Our stay at the Pelican Perch was perfect. The house is so lovely and so close to the beach. The service that SBL provided was top notch. We rented quite a bit from them during our stay and they were wonderful. We fell in love with Sanibel and all that it offers. Great restaurants, beautiful beaches and lots of activities for everyone. We never wanted to leave and we can't wait to get back there. This house is paradise! - Anonymous Posted on 8/5/2015 ### Pelican's Perch -excellent (5/5 stars) Beautiful place and great location on the island. Newly remodeled very nicely done. Comfortable beds, lots of room for large group. Beach is just a short walk away and not crowded. House furnished with beach chairs and towels which is an added bonus. Everyone loved the private pool. We rented bikes from SBL. They delivered them to the house, nice bikes. Bike paths on the whole island - Anonymous Posted on 6/3/2015 ### Best beach house ever (5/5 stars) Great location for beach and nature lovers.
