Absolutely wonderful stay. Jen was an amazing host, extremely responsive and helpful. The place was beautiful and a great location 1) because it was near the causeway we didn't have to deal with all the traffic on Sanibel when we wanted to go to Fort Myers for museums or food shopping 2) saw so many dolphins from the living room. Highly recommend!
We very much enjoyed our stay here! There were so many dolphins we saw right outside the condo every day. It was very clean and seemed brand new! The facility was great too, with pickle ball courts and shuffleboard. My sons enjoyed fishing off the pier and in the canal behind the condo. We'd definitely stay here again!
Dolphins every day; all day! This was the best vacation rental we’ve ever stayed in. The condo was beautiful, clean and very well appointed. The beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed to cook a few meals. Pool temp was refreshing. Great communication with host and easy check-in/out process. As wonderful as the condo is, the view is the real show-stopper here. It’s obviously a favorite fishing spot for the dolphins and they put on a show for us every single day. 15 out of 10 stars for this stay!!!
Awesome view of Bay…great way to start the morning. We even saw several dolphins right along the boardwalk. My husband got a fishing license and enjoyed fishing off the pier.The condo unit was just perfect. It felt like a brand new place. We vacationed with another couple and having our own bathrooms and space in the living room and sunroom was ideal.Lots of great restaurants. Loved visiting different beaches every day, but the parking situation was a challenge. The owner was super easy to work with, and we highly recommend the unit.
We could not have had a better experience! We loved everything about this place! The host was incredibly responsive and helpful! 10 stars if we could ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

I am so glad you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for the very kind review and look forward to having you back in a few weeks!
The condo was great, convenient, well stocked and decorated well. The views of the bay were incredible and the location made getting on and off the island very easy. Jenn was great to work with! Would definitely stay here again!
The check in process was super easy. The condo was clean and wonderfully decorated with very nice upgrades. Great view of the bay which is so close you can cast a fishing pole from the back door. (Which we did not do!) We saw a family of Manatees playing in the water literally from the couch. Obviously we ran out there to see them from the dock/pier that runs the whole length of the complex. There were two pools there which we didn't use too much but they were nice and not very many people in either of them. We were there for the ocean and beaches. The beach that is short walking distance is on the bay side and is small but there were rarely people there. The drive to the others was not too bad and we visited all of them. Lighthouse Beach is not a far drive at all and is really cool. We went in June and we didn't have to wait to eat at places and the traffic wasn't bad at all. An awesome condo on the first floor with a fantastic view and Sanibel was a really cool place. Didn't feel like a tourist trap. 5 stars from us for sure!
Loved this condo. Views were amazing. Well stocked with beach and fishing needs. Beautiful. Clean. Great location. Nice pool. Great pier for fishing. Would definitely stay here again!
This was one of the more beautifully appointed condos we've stayed at. And the location made it easy to go to the beach, the mainland, or to a variety of restaurants and shops on the island. Would definitely return here.
Excellent renting experience. Great location and beautifully furnished and equipped condo with outstanding views. Ideal for both adults and kids.
5star rating.
We really enjoyed our time at your lovely condo. Tastefully appointed decor, thoughtful touches, and a jaw droppingly beautiful view. We saw dolphins, manatees, and even a shark (!) right out front in the bay. What a treat!
The entire experience was thoughtful, comfortable and the decor beautifully homelike! Jen was an excellent host in communication and the condo was even better than photos. The association was lovely and easy to get to.
Spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, this condo looks out over the water from the living area and main bedroom. The owners thought of everything, from a fully-outfitted kitchen to beach chairs, fishing rods, even beach towels. We enjoyed daily visits from the dolphins. The fishing pier is just steps away. Great restaurants are just a short car ride away. We'll be back!
