Mango Street Inn

I will start with we will definitely be going back to the Mango Street Inn. Prior to our arrival, I received an email from Tree, one of the owners, who set expectations regarding arrival to my wife and myself’s visit for our 1^st anniversary. So when we did arrive, we were able to get settled in exactly as we expected.
The room looked just like the pictures that we saw on their web page which was nice. Having a full kitchen and standard coffee pot for that lazy morning coffee was also a plus.
The breakfast is fantastic. It starts at 9, and you can come and go as you please. Just sit down and your breakfast will be brought out.
Another benefit of staying at the Mango Street Inn, as opposed to a standard hotel are the small amenities you get, that are often overlooked when planning a visit to the beach. For example, the beach chairs, umbrella, umbrella stake and cooler are all ready for you. Tree even put together some ice for the cooler to keep the beverages cold. You would have to rent all of that if you stayed at a traditional hotel.
Also the location is amazing. Pack up your gear and walk across the street for beach access. You are also one spot down from a local breakfast gem right on the corner, where if you don’t get there early you will have a wait that is well worth it.
To top it off, as my wife and I were leaving, we left her iPad, and I received a phone call from Tree the next day telling me that she had it, and where could she send it. As a frequent traveler, I have lost items in those big chain hotels, and I just consider them lost. Not at Mango Street Inn.
To bring it back to where I started. After our first visit on our one year anniversary, it was clear to my wife and I that we had started a tradition at the Mango Street Inn with Tree & Dan. We cannot wait until next year.

The Inn: The owners are warm, welcoming, and helpful. They easily accommodated our request for a vegan breakfast. The rooms are clean and nicely furnished. They have a separate bedroom and living room/​kitchen. The living room has a large screen TV with cable, and the kitchen has full sized appliances and everything you need to cook and dine. Tree and Dan really thought of all the details, such as several books in the rooms, and beach equipment (chairs, umbrellas, toys, even a wagon!).
The Location: The Inn is on Estero Island, which was a $ 45 taxi ride from the airport. We had no need for a car rental, as there are several things to do on the island, and an adorable trolley (75 cents per ride) that runs along the length of the island. From the Inn, the beach is across the street, and there is a grocery store and a pool/​waterpark two blocks away. Accessible by the trolley is the cute downtown area, several restaurants, boat tours, and a larger/​nicer grocery store (Publix).
I typically like to try somewhere new each time I travel, but everything about our stay was so wonderful and EASY that I definitely plan to return!

What an awesome place to stay! Everything we needed for a great beach vacation and a wonderfully prepared breakfast every morning! Dan and Tree are great hosts.

I feel like this place was sent from heaven for both my husband and me. We went on one of our many adventures discovering Florida. We went without reservations and they had a room available for us. It was the best place we have ever stayed in. It totally felt like home. Cozy, warm, lovely, good energy and amazing owners! love! love! This place, it took my breath away! I totally recommend it! I so look forward to going back in November for our Anniversary ! Please enjoy your stay here!.. Ivette

I still can’t believe this place is real. We stayed here for my dad’s wedding and inn owners Dan and Tree went above and beyond for us. I’d give this place 5 stars for the breakfasts they served us alone.

I’m hesitant to write a review for this lovely little inn because I’m afraid the secret is going to get out. We did a little girls’ weekend in Ft Myers last month and really enjoyed staying here. The innkeepers were friendly and super helpful, and the place is adorable! I can’t wait to go back. They offer a kitchen and a communal pantry that you can use, so it’s perfect for a family get away.
Note: It’s also dog friendly, and our dog Pacey loved the sofa!

This IS as good as it gets. My girlfriend and I decided to search for a B & B after she had a work-​related training seminar in nearby Fort Myers during the week, and since we were down there we wanted to stay a night on the beach. We found this little place through an internet search, and although it’s not directly on the beach, we went for it. The rest is history. Mango Street Inn is now on our very short list of «must do» places, and we are very well travelled. Needless to say — we’ll be back. I’m struggling both with how to put into words how awesome our stay was, and also whether to reveal its secret. Alas, since you’re reading this, I decided to spill my guts.
Mango Street is run by a husband and wife team that bought it a few years ago and put it through a major renovation. We initially booked one night, but upon having the time of our lives, we had to stay on for another. Our room was immaculate. I literally would have eaten off of the floor. Everything here just «clicked». Dan and Teresa, the proprietors, did an amazing job rehabbing the units, and also building a really cool deck in the courtyard with a masterful trellis that takes the bite out of the midday sun. He schooled me at «ring toss», but by Sunday morning I got that mastered. Breakfast is made to order and out of this world! Dan is humble about his background, which makes this stay all the more awesome, because you realize by the end of your trip that you are in the midst of a master at the top of his game. Unfortunately we didn’t have the pleasure of meeting his wife, who was out of town, but we very much look forward to making her acquaintance when we return. Book this place with confidence — you won’t be disappointed!
