Great Getaway on Sanibel Island

Very clean and well appointed cottage. Owners very helpful. Whole island has issues with WIFI , may be a LAN connection from cable company would help. Streaming PC videos involved a lot of spooling. Beach equipment provided but sun umbrella is small, really only suitable for shade for one person. No Bicycles, but easy to rent them. We found it more convenient to drive to Tarpon beach access, walk from car park is the same as local Nerita beach access and Tarpon has restrooms. We enjoyed our stay.

Great location

We had a relaxing two week stay. House is totally updated and in a quiet location, very short walk to the beach. Had everything we needed including beach chairs and towels. Linens and towels were top notch. Biking to restaurants, groceries and shops was quick and easy. Check in and communication was fantastic. Would definitely stay here again.
