                            The location of this condo is unbeatable, it is located down on West Gulf Drive. So not the crazy busy part of the Island, which worked well since we were there during the high season. We were also close to Baily's grocery and hardware store if we needed anything we could make a very quick trip for provisions. The unit and location made for a GREAT family vacation. We would pack a few things for the beach take a short walk and we were there in minutes, private beach access! This condo is not on the beach mind you but rentals on the beach with a partial ocean view cost more than double what we paid and are much smaller. We know other families who were stuck with the craziness of Fort Myers for Spring break, if they only knew the secret...rent this place and be ON Sanibel! The condo was clean, spacious, had a full kitchen and was right near the pool. There were really nice gas grills by the pool that we used as well. We hope to rent this unit and visit Sanibel again!

                            Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

                            I only had 3 nights to get away, many places on Sanibel require a week. Thankfully I found this condo. It was easy to find, clean and the residents nextdoor were very friendly. It is a downstairs unit, which made it easier to "move in & move out". Mark- the owner gave great advice for things to do & see. This property has private access to the beach across the street- an easy quick walk. My family of 3 had a great time here.

                            We loved the condo, very clean and large enough for the 5 of us. It was very nice not to have to buy all the little everyday necessaties we normally buy while staying at SeaShells. The kids loved sitting on the lanai and playing games after dark. Would also recommend checking out Sanibel Cruise line if you get the chance. We take a private trip to Cayo Costa everytime we visit with capt. Mike. The kids love it. He offers snorkeling, kyaks, paddle boards and sea doos all included in the trip along with shelling and dolphin watching. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us. We will definatly be checking with you on available dates for next year.

                            Great vacation at a great home away from home. We'll be back! The walk to the beach was cake, the house and everything in it were great, we had a memorable vacation especially that my wife swam with 5 or 6 manatee's for 2 1/2 hous. It was a chance meeting but the Lord knows how special it was to her. Unfortunately the only day I missed going to the beach was that day as I was reading a book I could not put down. The owners are great to work with & we both highly recommend their place.

                            What a great place, we recently stayed three nights and wished it could have been much longer. The condo was clean and neat and felt very large. The kitchen was on the smaller side but quite adequate and well equiped. All appliances were in good working order and we found the condo to be very pleasant. The view off into the courtyard was lovely with tropical folliage everywhere you look. The only negative was the second bath room tub was a slow drainer and took quite a while to empty. The beach access was very close by and just a short walk to the beach. Overall I would highly reccommend the condo to anyone who is seeking a nice quite getaway!

                            Owner response: Thanks Karen! I will be on-site soon to take care of the slow drain....

                            Our stay was great. Next to the gulf, bike trail right on the property, easy access to shopping and groceries. Kitchen was well supplies with cooking accessories, and I made some great seafood meals while I was there. Swimming pool was fantastic with plenty of sunshine. I enjoy shuffle board so I was very excited to see a nice shuffle board next to the pool. Another thing that we both enjoyed was having the windows open and taking in the nice cross breeze. A car port is also provided so our car was never baking in the sun.

                          About the owner: Greetings! Thank you for considering our little bit a paradise for your vacation. I live full time in Saint Paul MN USA and enjoy inviting guest to Sanibel Island. Always feel free to email with Sanibel questions. Because I manage the rentals myself I offer much more flexibility than rental agencies. Note: Book with me early! I have many regular guests that have discovered what a great value I have.

                          Why the Owner Chose Sea Shells of Sanibel:
                          I choose this location because of the easy beach access AND that the beach is absolutely stunning here! We are a part of Sanibel that is not as densely populated as the east end, and not remote. West Gulf front is wonderful..... The complex is small and peaceful. Perfect.

                          The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
                          Enjoying the island atmosphere is the main attraction to Sanibel. Live in your swimsuit, pour yourself a cold beverage, watch the waves,....that's the program here.
