The Lovebird-sleeps 3! Great value on Sanibel-walk to dining, shops and Historic East End Lighthouse

8/10 Good

"Cute little cottage. The shower was Quite small. Could have used another table for kitchen prep, dish drying, etc but we made it work. Free bicycles and some beach stuff. Outdoor shower/Clean up area. Great beaches!! Overall great stay on Sanibel Island!"

Beachfront Condo + Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Tennis + Walk to Dining

10/10 Excellent

"We loved Jill's condo! The location was excellent. Short walk over the boardwalk to the beach was lovely. Water station to rinse off sandy feet and beach items was so handy too. The newly renovated community pool was outstanding. Lots of pool items to use from floats to noodles...we were so thankful to have access to them because we didn't bring our own since we flew down. The condo was great and fit our family of 5. The kitchen was all we needed for a week stay and many meals at the condo. The screened in balcony had a beautiful view of the ocean and pool and the screen kept out the pesky no-see-um flies. There was also a closet filled with beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and beach toys. Beach towels and bath towels were also included. So wonderful to have these! Thank you!! :)"

Luxury Villa Lighthouse Across from the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed in Sanibel many times over the last 25 years but this is the first time we have used VRBO. We had a lovely time, the house was beautiful and very well stocked with everything you could need. We live on the East Coast so had brought beach chairs, towels etc none of which were necessary.The unit we had was on the water and it was magical to sit and look out at the water and there were daily Manatee visitors across the canal.We hope to be back soon! Thank you for a lovely time!"

1BR Sanibel Condo - Steps to Beach - Colony Inn 03

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you for allowing us to stay! We had a great time. Excellent location, quick access to the beach and within minutes of a bike ride or quick drive to many places. Unit was clean and as advertised. Our “only” down fall was the hygiene supplies. Online it said there was soap/shampoo/conditioner on hand. We chose to not bring any and when we arrived it was sample size, much smaller than travel size and not enough for a 4 day stay, especially they fact I brought 2 women with me, LOL. Other than that awesome stay, and we got to see sharks and manatees at the Ding Darling Reserve, no gators though!! Which means a follow up trip to see them."

Seahorse Cottages on Sanibel - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Our cottage was great! It was clean, and the bed was comfortable. It was nice to have porch areas out front and back and it was an easy walk to the beach and restaurant/ice cream shop. It was also nice to have the small pool to cool off in. Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back to Sanibel!"
