The Atrium - a luxury 24-unit building on the Gulf of Mexico - has a lovely courtyard, covered driveway building entrance, and manicured grounds that accompany the private drive, beach access, heated pool, and tennis court. Our relaxing beach themed unit #103 has many amenities, including ceiling fans, master bedroom walk in closet, vanity sink inside & outside the master bath, and window shutters. Our unit in the Atrium offers a relaxing atmosphere, open views, and a peaceful quiet retreat that many island properties cannot offer.
The living room and master bedroom open onto the glass & screen encompassed all weather porch. Relax in the evening on the porch with warm breezes wafting in off of the Gulf of Mexico laden with a wild salty character. The surf on Sanibel’s beaches are usually gentle and calming ~ it is simply wonderful to completely unwind listening to the waves.

Map & Owner's Profile
Atrium #103 - Relax with Beachfront Gulf Sunsets and Breezes
Year Purchased: 1978
Why the Owner Chose Other Sanibel Island Properties
Our family first fell in love with Sanibel Island in the 1970s, and soon realized the dream of owning a beachfront rental condominium there. We still return to enjoy its beauty year after year.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We simply love our beachfront view with daily sunsets and the view of the building's pool, where we enjoy watching the next generation of mermaids splashing in the water. We annually visit the Ding Darling Wildlife Refuge, where Sanibel's abundant wildlife locals loves to show off. The Atrium is a wonderful place to stay, with open view to the Gulf of Mexico and a relaxing atmosphere of solitude.
Rent canoe or kayak boats to follow a marked trail through the waterways of the bay. Wonderful bird watching and wildlife viewing and a relaxed pace. Bring a lunch! http://www.tarponbayexplorers.com/
Take a drive through the Wildlife Refuge -- stunning scenery and birdlife through the whole park! They have a visitor's center worth visiting! http://www.fws.gov/dingdarling/
This 1884 lighthouse is one of the most photographed structures on Sanibel -- and is still operational. http://www.nps.gov/history/maritime/light/sanibel.htm

We had a wonderful time staying at this condo – it’s a fantastic place in a fantastic location. We enjoyed watching sunsets in the condo (both on the lanai and inside), which is not always possible when you stay elsewhere on the island. This condo building is also far away from public beach access, so the beach is less crowded. The unit itself offers everything you need to enjoy your stay in paradise. One of my favorites, was the sliding glass doors on the outside & inside of the lanai. It did rain one day & we were able to still sit on the lanai because of the doors! When the weather is nice, which is most of the time, you can slide both the inside & outside doors open to enjoy the smell & the sound of the beach! Very comfortable & roomy unit, I plan on returning! The only thing I didn't like about my stay was that it ended!
Owner response:Looking forward to your next stay! Keep in touch!!
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, people with disabilities, sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers.
