We picked this place from our discount voucher booklet based on location (very near the beach) and on price. We had read phrases like "old Florida style" and "hidden gem" and feared they might be euphemisms for something less than perfect. One look told us we we wrong. For us, this motel was excellent and the highlight of our holiday... More

We don’t recommend this place. Since it was peak season we reserved a month ahead. We received a detailed receipt as confirmation, but when we arrived, we received a free downgrade (no kitchen). When we complained we were told to see the owner. The owner said it was a clerical error and if we didn’t like it we could go... More

This is a little gem of motel stuck in it own time warp, location was perfect right on the beach, no problem parking, room was dated but was clean and had all that was needed. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Overall a pleasent experience looking forward to going back next year.

Everything was and is wonderful, it is across the street from the Gulf. And those comments about sand...heck it is florida.....sand is everywhere, and the housekeep does a great job at trying to clean up all the sand. It is older, and a little dated but you know what! WE ONLY PAID 85 PER NIGHT , I would say to... More

This is a small Motel, straight out of the 1960s. It does not pretend to be anything else. It is is clean and the rooms have seperate dinning kitchen living room from the bedroom and bathroom. If has a certain charm about it as it is a older style motel, but the decor is really nice with pastel colours and... More

I was hoping the room would be nicer.There was sand under the table rug...alot of sand. The decorations were old and cheap and it made the room depressing. The mattress had the springs coming through so I had to sleep on top of the bedspread. The regular visitors were very friendly and warm. The location is great.

We've stayed at the Lighthouse twice now and both times it has been great. The rooms and property are clean and the pool is a nice size. I liked having the little kitchenette to make morning coffee and toast, its nice not having to eat out for every meal. The property has some rules and the staff are always around... More

We stayed here for one night on our travels in America. We were looking for a non-corporate, budget hotel and this place was advertised as a 'hidden gem' of Naples! It did seem so out of place in it's surroundings as the only wooden construction, 1950's motel in an oasis of gated communities and high-class hotels. The bed was horrible... More

The Lighthouse Inn bills itself as “Old Florida” charm, rather it’s more like a nondescript 1962 motel with some nice palm trees, the last vestige of what things were a few decades ago at Vanderbilt Beach. One thing all visitors will agree on is this place is impeccably clean and well maintained. Running and maintaining this generally pleasant property are... More
