Keywords: Condominium
Our townhouse is in Blind Pass Condominiums, a Sanibel Island resort. This is a small complex of two- and three-bedroom apartments on the quiet end of the island, closer to Captiva. We are on the second and third floor. Theoretically, we are on the beach, as there are no streets between the condominium and the Gulf of Mexico.
There is a small bayou situated between the complex and the beach. You must cross a wooden footbridge to reach the beach. Our beach is considered by most, who know Sanibel, to be the best beach on the island (widest, longest, least populated, best shelling, etc.).
Blind Pass provides a sense of seclusion and is quite a distance from all the other condominiums and hotels on Sanibel affording it a uniquely peaceful, unpopulated, and tropical environment.
Blind Pass is not just a building on the beach or your "run of the mill" Sanibel rental. They are clustered apartments in a Polynesian style with approximately four units clustered together. You can walk around the property and experience" breathing" space. The pool is huge, recently renovated, and heated in the cooler months. The newly renovated tennis courts are set in a landscaped environment. Even the bayou offers a sense of discovery of nature as tropical birds can frequently be spotted.
Our unit has two porches that overlook the pool and gardens.
We have over 1400 square feet of living space. As you enter through the front door, there is a small foyer with a half bath, decorated in a lighthouse motif. To the right is a hideaway full-sized washer and dryer. Next, a tiled kitchen with updated appliances and everything that the chef might desire - right down to a rounder filled with spices.
Your next relaxing area is a large living room/dining room combination. This is decorated in a boating motif. From the comfortable yellow and rose plaid couches ( one which makes into a queen-sized sleeper), to the large rattan ottoman chair; this is a room you will feel as if you can lounge. There is a large flat screen TV and DVD player.
This room and the adjoining dining room both have light honey colored rattan and wicker furniture. The dining room contains a glass-top table with seating for six. All furniture has been newly purchased. The adjoining screened-in porch, complete with ceiling fan, is furnished with a table for casual dining so that you can enjoy the pool and courtyard view.
Upstairs you will find a master bedroom and adjoining tiled bath with a wonderful king-sized bed and white wicker reading chair. This is done in a shell motif. The room also has a telephone and remote controlled TV. The addition of a screened-in porch, which also sports a ceiling fan, is decorated with white wicker furniture.
This gives you the opportunity to enjoy the evening breezes or view the garden and the pool while you enjoy a good book in the afternoon. Down the hall is your spare room. This is decorated with whimsical fish. It has twin beds that can easily be combined to make another king. This room is also accented with white wicker. It is equipped with a remote TV and has its own tiled bath.
Our condominium and resort has it all. Everything on Sanibel is low key and easy. Above all else, relax, enjoy, and have a great time.
