Sundial was perfect!! We could not have asked for better accommodations. Our view was amazing and we were close enough to the beach that we could hear the waves. Sanibel is wonderful and we WILL be back!!

Except for elevator being out of order, the facility was great. Looked out at the beach and great view on the 4th floor. Being in our 70’s with bad knees, expected the elevator to be working to get out stuff up to condo, but like I said it was out of order. Otherwise it was a fantastic vacation condo.
We really enjoyed this condo. It was special because we were married the day before we checked in! Overall process was good. My only recommendation would be to update your beach equipment. The chairs were very old and the straps were broken. That is fixable. I would recommend this property and we will be back again!

Location and view extraordinary and Sundial pool was enjoyable, too.
Location and view extraordinary and Sundial pool was enjoyable, too. Staff helpful in every way.
My wife and I loved staying in this condo on Sanibel Island. It was plenty big for the two of us. We loved having a close view of the beach, and being able to get to it very easily. It was nice having a fully screened-in balcony so we could keep the doors open at night and listen to the surf (although the screens do obscure the view, especially if you are taking photos or using binoculars at birds on the beach).

As noted above, it is a lovely condo.
As noted above, it is a lovely condo. One minor issue - when we went to get plates out of the cupboard, many of them were wet (and some with a few food specks), as though somebody had taken them right out of the dishwasher and put them away without looking at them. It would have been helpful if there had been some additional dishwashing detergent packets, more laundry detergent, and some window or counter cleaner. They were fine!
Great unit, view was excellent, very cool balcony with sliding door that expands across the width of the unit. There were no blankets for the pullout couch, the blender didnt work, and property manager was non-responsive when asking for extra blankets. Overall I would still recommend.
This is the second time staying in the property and I can say that I love it. It is very convenient for a family vacation with kids, the apartment has all you need and it is so close to the beach that you can hear the sound of the waves. It is also sparkly clean!!!! Im sure I will be staying next year again!

Thanks for staying with us on our beautiful islands! We look forward to having you as a guest again!
We definitely missed out not booking this property for 2022. We would love to come back and rent a two bedroom. This condo was perfect for what we were looking for. One of the most relaxing vacations ever. F
We had a fantastically relaxing vacation. The Gulf was amazing; we swam with a dolphin, sting rays, and 4 manatees right outside the condo.
The condo was very clean and well equipped. We only needed to purchase food. Beach chairs, beach towels, bath towels, and umbrellas were provided.

The condo was beautiful.
The condo was beautiful. The views were incredible. Satellite tv was not good quality. Was trying to watch women's basketball finals and it buffered something terrible. Would be good to tell what filters to buy for the coffee maker. We had to make a return trip to the store for this. Also handle on refrigerator was broken and they said they would contact to fix it but did not. Overall a great property clean right on beach with terrific views.

Cleanliness, overall design and location were superb. Everything we needed, such as beach towels, coffee filters etc. got us off to a great start and helped us enjoy a hassle-free getaway. Also, appliances worked well which was a plus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the condo layout and location were excellent. Team was polite and helpful at every step of the way. Check in and out were well explained and trouble free.

We have been visiting Sanibel since the 80s.
We have been visiting Sanibel since the 80s. We have stayed at sundial on several different occasions. If there is anything negative to say is one afternoon we were enjoying relaxing on the beach then a large pontoon beaches themselves in front of the sundial and had their stereo blasting. Nothing was said or done. Saddened me to have this blasting music when my reason for being here was to hear the ocean and r and r and this was disappointing to have this be allowed. Noise pollution in otherwise peaceful beautiful place.
Very nice condo. Beautiful view of the gulf and the beach is just steps away. The apartment has all you need for your stay.
Cons: the bath tub was clogged. We had to fix it ourself. There was no late check out availability, we usually take advantage of this to stay a few hours more. the last day we even considered to pay an extra night but could not locate anybody at the vacation office, it was a holiday and probably they were closed, Im glad it was not an emergency cause nobody ever answered.
Overall nice stay and beautiful place for a vacation.
