A Slice of Paradise
Fabulous rental! So much wildlife to view from the lanai (our favorite feature of the house). Loved having our own private pool too. Kitchen has everything you need- we mostly ate at home and enjoyed having all the tools, pots and pans we needed for anything we cooked. Property management was immediately responsive for even the smallest thing- would rent from them again in a heartbeat!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We found this Middle Gulf Drive home very comfortable. It was a very convenient location for accessing the beach and biking the island. The view from the deck overlaps a pond and provides a tropical setting.

Not worth the price!
The condition of the home was unacceptable for the price we paid to rent it for the month. We had constant issues with the water (no hot water), the pool and hot tub (wouldn’t heat), no dish washer (standing water in the dishwasher that smelled bad), leaking propane, cabinets falling apart and held together with tape. The WiFi and internet was not avaioable the first day because the landscaper had cut the line. I was on the phone with the management company every other day. The management company did their best, but the homeowners should be moritified to rent their home in this condition. With my previous experiences, the price should have dictated a vastly better experience. Do not rent this home at this price!

Fantasea July 2020
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We always enjoy Sanibel, although this year we had to deal with Covid 19. House was as represented in photos. Pool area very enjoyable. Layout of house a little strange, with the 4th bathroom isolated on second floor. Nice roomy kitchen and loved the large lanai. A bit of pruning on rear foliage would enhance the view. A few very minor issues were addressed promptly by SBL staff.
