Keywords: Condominium
Panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico stop you in your tracks as you enter this luxury BEACH FRONT penthouse. You have discovered a vacation rental above and beyond on Sanibel Island.
Loggerhead Cay is located on a beautiful world famous shelling beach, offering convenient access to the causeway, bike and walking paths, marinas, and many other attractions. Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge occupies almost a third of the island and is home to spectacular migratory birds, manatee, alligators, bobcat, and many species of wildlife. There are several shops, galleries and restaurants nearby, as well as two full service grocery stores. WITHIN THE COMPLEX, there is a heated swimming pool, tennis courts, shuffleboard, BBQ grills and picnic tables.
THIS CONDO FEATURES upscale furnishings throughout for your discriminating taste. The thoughtfully designed gourmet kitchen is fully equipped. A dining table seats six, and also enjoys incredible sea views - a treat not even available at most island restaurants! A fun gadget you may enjoy - a television that disappears into the granite windowsill offering unobstructed views of the horizon. The master bedroom welcomes you with a top of the line queen mattress, luxury linens, bath en-suite, built-in cabinetry, and full sliding doors opening to the glassed/screened lanai overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. It will be tempting to spend much of your time here, as the lanai is also furnished for your comfort with additional dining set and cozy leather recliners. Many an evening has been spent lounging and watching the sky change colors with the setting sun, while dolphins are frequently spotted very close to shore.
The second bedroom is conveniently furnished with 2 twin beds. This penthouse features a split floor plan and second bath for maximum privacy. Although you visit Sanibel to "get away", you won't be out of touch with high speed wireless internet, cable TV, DVD player and Bose stereo system. The condo is equipped with a washer/dryer, beach chairs and beach towels. You'll find the reserved parking space near the elevator most convenient.

My intended trip was to be a girls week end retreat with my sisters & dear friend. The minute I walked in the door of this lovely unit, I knew I would not want to leave! I am fortunate to be able to work almost from anywhere...so I extended my stay after the girls week and had the most productive, relaxing "working vacation" ever! I cannot think of a better place to relax and enjoy all that Sanibel has to offer. The owners of this unit have given careful thought to everything a vacationer needs to have the most comfortable and enjoyable stay. Bring your clothes and toothbrush..everything else is taken care of for you! From the plush beach towels, beach chairs, hotel quality linens to gourmet cook ware for preparing your meals. Did you forget a book to read on the beach? No worries, there is a variety of good reads to choose from. Sleeping couldn't be more restful, with the soothing sounds of the waves of the Gulf, from your master bedroom. Your first sight upon wakening is the glorious view of the Gulf of Mexico. There is a large, screened in patio off the Master bedroom to drink your morning coffee, & watch people on the beach and also a smaller sized patio facing the large swimming pool and courtyard. Don't forget to visit the Jacaranda for dinner & live entertainment, try Elliot's for some live jazz or take a ride up to Mucky Ducks in Captiva for the very best sunsets. Many thanks to all, who made my visit more than I could have ever imagined!

My sisters and I stayed last weekend and had such a great time. The pictures truly don't do justice to this rental. The owner was so kind and took care to make sure our stay was special. Highly recommend!!!

This is a fabulous place to rest, relax, and let the water soothe the weariness right out of you. Views of the water are available from almost every spot in the condo. This is the closest building to the beach and you can wake to an expansive view of the water from your spot in the comfy master bed--that wall of the bedroom is totally glass. We have stayed at a number of Florida condo's and this was by far the most upscale in design and decorative accents. It feels much larger than we expected--having a TV that disappears into the cabinet below was a great idea and keeps it from blocking the water views. There is a large collection of glassware on display in glass front cabinets--I would recommend that families with small or inquisitive children make another choice. Don't forget your binoculars--we saw dolphins and all sorts of boats. I had a close encounter in the water with a manatee right out in front of the condo. We collected a carry on bag full of shells, but just snorkeling for them was the bestfun. Out near the bouy was sanddollar heaven--some people taught us how to pick them up with our toes--and since they were alive we studied them a bit and then put them back in the water. Saw my first horseshoe crab (16 inches across with an 8 inch tail) and got very good at picking up gorgeous conch shells, only to find out that they were inhabited and had to be put back. Well this is making me "beach sick"--I would highly recommend this condo and all the people who facilitated our stay.

We stayed in this condo in March 2010 and had a wonderful experience. This condo has it all. Unbelievable views of the beach from the bedroom, lanai, living room, kitchen and an open-air balcony! It is clean and modern, very nicely furnished and quiet and perfectly located at the end of the Loggerhead Cay complex, one of just a few units that have full, close overlooks of the beach. The pool was the perfect temperature and very clean. It is close to everything on Sanibel and also close to the bridge, making it easy to go on adventures to Fort Myers Beach, Naples and other locations.

"Our family has rented at Loggerhead for years. We feel so fortunate to have found your vacation condos - now we're spoiled and will never stay anywhere else. Whether our budget allows the penthouse full gulf view, or the courtyard. They are the most comfortable and cleanest places we've every rented."

"It's always scary renting a new vacation condo. From the beginning, Jeanne made it easy for us and was extremely thorough and professional. Rejania made sure the place was spotless, and the owner, Georgia was so gracious and kind."
