The condo is beautiful and as advertised. Pictures are true. More importantly, when we faced an insurmountable issue at the property -- not the condo -- the owner immediately resolved the problem in our favor without question and with great integrity. Thank you very much. We would stay with you again.Recommended for: Pet owners.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful home with us. We will always remember watching the sun come up with that first cup of coffee on the lanai. Coming back from an excursion, opening the door and seeing the fantastic view of the beach and the changing parade of people. We had the most incredible weather, everything was just wonderful. We hope to come back again, and will certainly tell friends where to go for a blissful week.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Our family stayed in this beautiful condo and it was just perfect. The views are stunning. The condo was very clean, well decorated and was well outfitted. We used the bikes quite a bit, and appreciated the beach chairs and towels. It was so helpful to have the wifi too. We had stayed in another condo there and felt helpless without it. The location is perfect for getting around the island – just ideal all around! We definitely recommend it.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

We had a wonderful time in this vacation rental. It was very tastefully decorated, comfortable and well equipped. We appreciated the bikes and the wifi was great to have. Didn't realize that other condos don't have it. Our whole family had a great time and we hope to come back this year.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. My jaw dropped when I opened the door and saw the views from this condo. We spent a lot of time at the beach and the pool, but I enjoye just sitting on the lanai and having my morning coffee or reading to the sounds of the waves on the beach. The condo is so very cute and beachy-kick back, just what we were hoping for. We turned the ac off and left the slider open at night to fall asleep to the sounds of the waves. I haven't been so relaxed in years.Recommended for: Age 55+, people with disabilities, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.
Owner response: Thanks so much. See you again next year.

The pictures don't really capture all the beauty we have found here on Sanibel Island! The views from the condo, the early morning walks to the lighthouse, the sunsets on the beach, hearing the sound of the waves while you're relaxing in your beautifully decorated condo at Loggerhead Cay. It's a very romantic setting for a lovely get-away! The amenities provide everything you need. We would definitely return to this little bit of paradise! Thank you, Walt and Deb!!Recommended for: Age 55+, people with disabilities, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, girls getaway.

We and our good friends stayed here for a fall getaway. It's right on the beach. The guys golfed and the gals enjoyed the beach & shopping. We all enjoyed the restaurants and the island. Great spot to get away. This condo has two large beds in separate bedrooms, each with our own bathroom, which made itr perfect for 2 couples. We all loved it. Great place.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, romantic getaway, families with young children.

Manager info
About: We have a large extended family who enjoy getting together in our three family-owned units at Loggerhead Cay.
Why Loggerhead Cay:
Sanibel has a rare, kick-back charm and precious natural environment. No high-rises, no traffic lights. Just sun & sea and wonderful adventure year-round. :-)
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
Thanksgiving has become a Sanibel family tradition, and Christmas on the island is so magical.
We love to bike all over - even up to Capitva for lunch at the Bubble Room. Dinner at the Mucky Duck is always a treat. Kayaking around the Bay is so beautiful and peaceful. And the beach is so unforgetable.
The kitchen is fully-equiped for Thanksgiving dinner, and it's great to have the laundry so handy. The WIFI and phones make it easy to keep up with the world. We love it here and hate to leave. :-(
