Hurricane Milton update #2
Posted on 10/12/2024 in Sanibel Island vacation rentals.
Post storm update: Blind Pass Condos remains closed at this time due to Hurricane Milton. We did have storm surge come into our first floor units as well as the clubhouse. As our guests, families, owners and followers know without a doubt, we are a resilient community! We started on clean-up as soon as the causeway was re-opened and will continue our progress so that we can open once again. We’re happy to report that our new bridge and popular Big Blue Chair are intact!
We are fortunate to have a dedicated contractor crew, patient owners and faithful team of staff members that have been with us through Ian, Helene and Milton… We can’t thank them enough.
Although we don’t yet have a reopening date, we can’t wait to welcome you back soon!
If you have an upcoming reservation made through the on-site Blind Pass Rental Department, stay tuned, we’ll be contacting you next week after we have made further assessments. If you made a reservation with another rental company, please contact them directly.
We will get through this together and we’ll share our progress along the way. Thank you for all of the messages, we appreciate your concern! We love our Sanibel community and your support means so much to all of us at Blind Pass Condos.

As Hurricane Milton approaches and comes to Florida, we will be signing off for a few days. Our Blind Pass team is safe and we all appreciate the kind messages and well wishes during this time. We have prepped and readied our resort, as much as we could ahead of this storm. We sincerely hope for the safety and well-being of all those affected by Hurricane Milton.

Hurricane Helene update
Posted on 09/27/2024 in condo rentals on Sanibel Island.
Our hearts go out to all those in the path of Hurricane Helene. We know firsthand the fear and uncertainty that comes with facing a category 4 hurricane, and we sincerely hope for the safety and well-being of all those affected. While Sanibel has seen its share of wind and rain, we’re grateful that we’re okay. We ask that you keep the rest of Florida and those affected in your thoughts during this difficult time. Our thoughts, prayers and love are with you all.
Blind Pass Condos incurred some damage from the storm surge, we will begin work on drying out and clean up today. Although we had a lot of rainfall, we had no serious damage.
We are currently assessing the grounds and anticipate putting out another update on Monday, stay tuned. If you have a reservation coming up soon, feel free to email our on-site rental department staff with any questions you may have. Rest assured that we are working hard on the clean up from Helene!

Welcoming back our first full-time resident!
Posted on 03/22/2024 in Sanibel Island condos.
Tayla Thomas, staff member, welcomes back full-time resident Shirley Masuka to Blind Pass Condos
Blind Pass Condominiums staff recently welcomed back their first full-time resident, a major milestone in the property’s continuing recovery from Hurricane Ian damage.
At 93 now, Shirley Masuka has spent nearly a third of her life living here on Sanibel and was thrilled to return to her renovated island home on March 21 after 18 months living with family in Minnesota. Her son Michael accompanied her to Sanibel to assist in getting her settled back in, and Blind Pass Rental Manager Tom Henecker and staff greeted her with a bright bouquet of flowers and welcome balloon and card.
When Hurricane Ian was approaching southwest Florida during the last week of September, 2022, Shirley relocated to a hotel near the RSW Airport. When that location lost power, she evacuated to the Hertz Arena with hundreds of others. The volunteers there were “really, really kind,” she said, remembering the staff there from FEMA and Red Cross who assisted her.
Her family arranged for a flight out as soon as the airport opened, and as she waited in the terminal for her trip to Minneapolis, the home of her daughter, Bonnie and family, she saw some unusual sights out on the tarmac:
“The big helicopters were picking up trucks. That was amazing!” she recalled about rescue efforts to the islands.
Asked what it was like to return to cold northern winters, she seemed to have taken it in stride, commenting that she had 72 inches of snow her first winter and found it quite beautiful. This second winter, with little snow, has been a drab one, however.
After two winters up north, Shirley’s happy to be back on Sanibel.
Shirley and her late husband, John, stayed at several locations on the island before purchasing a condo unit at Blind Pass. John served as treasurer on the Blind Pass Condos Board of Directors, and the two were longtime dedicated volunteers at J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge. “He just loved this,” said Shirley regarding her husband’s sentiments about Blind Pass and Sanibel Island.
And it’s still her special place, too.
Now taking reservations!
Posted on 01/15/2024 in places to stay on Sanibel Island.
This is the moment we have all be waiting for! We are excited to announce that we are now taking our first reservations for weekly stays beginning June 1st, 2024!
To thank our valued newsletter subscribers – we’re giving you the FIRST opportunity to make your first reservations to stay at Blind Pass Condos after Hurricane Ian!
We are so very happy to welcome you back as our guests at Blind Pass Condominium on Sanibel Island!
We will be taking reservations for second-floor units only. Please bear in mind that while we are thrilled to once again accept rentals, our recovery from Hurricane Ian in September 2022 will continue throughout 2024 as we work to restore the property to the paradise you’ve come to know and love.
We do anticipate that some second-floor units in buildings may be open sooner than June 1st. Keep following us for updates on building reopening progress!
During your stay, you may encounter disruptions such as noise from work/delivery truck traffic on the property; ongoing renovation work in units; noise/dust from landscaping projects; and noise/dust from construction work on tennis and pickleball courts. Amenities such as the courts may not be fully available and are subject to temporary closure with little or no notice.
While we will attempt to minimize the intrusions during your stay, all the work you will see and hear is necessary to fully restore the resort back to the paradise setting our guests have enjoyed over the years. Working hours will typically be between 8am – 4pm during the weekdays.
Please NOTE: There will be no refunds for early departures due to concerns related to ongoing construction/renovation work on the property. Our clubhouse will be open Monday through Saturday, 9am-4pm. If you have any questions or concerns, our knowledgeable and friendly staff will be there to help. Thank you for your patience and understanding during our recovery process. We look forward to hosting you!
We are committed to sharing our story as we continue on this journey. Our guests, friends and Blind Pass families are a source of inspiration to all of us. Thank you for the support, the kind messages, the sweet stories and uplifting notes. We appreciate all of you and look forward to keeping you informed.
