We really enjoyed our stay at Signal Inn!
The condo was comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. The screened porch and rooftop area were perfect for relaxing, and it was just a short walk to the beach. The pool and hot tub were a nice bonus too. It felt like a quiet, easy place to unwind, and we'd happily stay here again.

This place felt like a true beach hideaway from the moment we walked in
We loved the cozy, comfortable living space, it was perfect for relaxing after long days at the beach. The screened porch and rooftop area quickly became our go‑to spots for morning coffee and sunset drinks. It was so nice being just a short walk from the sand, and we appreciated having the pool and hot tub right there when we wanted a break from the sun. Everything felt clean, welcoming, and easy. This is exactly what we hoped for in a beach getaway.
The property was very clean and spacious. The beach was beautiful and not very busy. We gathered numerous shells and saw many animals - even a dolphin that swam near us!

We have stayed at Signal Inn numerous times over the past 20 years. This was our first trip back since hurricane Ian. We wanted to support Signal Inn again, but they are under new management now it appears.
Our unit was in great condition and clean. We had plenty of bedding and plenty of kitchen supplies. The beach was quiet and a great spot for the kids to play and swim. I don't know what the property looked like after the hurricane, but everything appears to be in good condition. We plan to come again, but will definitely bring plenty of bug spray next time for the no-seeums.
