Our family fell in love with Sanibel from the first day we visited many years ago, and we’ve been returning ever since, building incredible memories at this island paradise. From the amazing sunsets to the world-class shelling to the beautiful nature preserves and white-sand beaches, the qualities of this island are outstanding. Each day seems to bring new experiences such as the occasional sea turtle sighting, dolphins near the beach, or the ever-changing serenity of the Gulf surf.
We love the island so much that we decided to purchase our own condo. And we feel we found the perfect location at Sanibel Arms, on the Gulf side of the island, where we are just steps to a beautiful section of the beach. The 64 unit complex features tropical surroundings, great amenities, and helpful on-site management. Our location on the eastern end of Sanibel makes access to the causeway a breeze. The condo itself is comfortable and beautifully updated. It is a beachside condo in building D, with a partial view of the gulf from the balcony bistro table and chairs.
Our condo was recently renovated and completely redecorated in 2012. This one bedroom unit has a king-sized bed and comfortable sleeper sofa. It has ceramic tile flooring throughout, and granite counter tops in the kitchen and bath. A washer/dryer is available in the unit for guest's use. TVs are provided in both the living room and bedroom, and wireless internet access is provided at no extra charge.
The complex has a clubhouse with business center adjoining a large, heated pool. A bicycle path links Sanibel Arms to the rest of the island, including the nature preserves, through 22 miles of paved trails. Two bicycles are provided for renter's use, and on-site bike rentals are also available. Watercraft enthusiasts will enjoy the docking privileges at the adjoining canal.
We believe this is the perfect island paradise. Our family invites you to be our guest to create your own incredible memories at our little piece of paradise.

Excellent place to stay on Sanibel Island

My husband and I loved our first trip to Sanibel and staying in Pete and Vicki's condo. The pictures and listing is accurate on VRBO. The condo is nicely decorated and clean. The king size bed is very, very comfy and welcoming after a day of bike riding or walking the beaches. We found the location convenient, access to the beach is close and it is an easy bike ride or walk to the lighthouse to catch the sunrise. They have thought of anything and everything you need to make your stay comfortable. Having the bikes available to ride whenever is a big plus as it is very easy to get around the island by bike. The veranda is a wonderful place to enjoy an evening dinner or a cold beverage. Everyone is very friendly at the complex and it is so quiet and peaceful day and night. We would highly recommend staying here and give it an A+. Thank you.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

We VERY much enjoyed our stay in your condo. It was a very clean, well-decorated, comfortable condo and was so close to the beach and convenient to get to Periwinkle (main drag)! The staff in the office were helpful and courteous. The bikes provided were excellent and the pool area and grounds were in perfect shape. Overall, our stay was a perfect 10! Thanks for everything!!! - AnnieRecommended for: Adventure seekers, tourists without a car, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children.

My husband and I absolutely loved our recent vacation on Sanibel Island. Your condo was the perfect match for us - it was better than the pictures showed! It was the perfect "home away from home" for seven days. The bikes that were included with the condo were the "icing on the cake" - averaged about 20 miles a day. In addition to biking, we enjoyed long walks on the beach, shelling each morning, fabulous restaurants and overall relaxation. We look forward to our next trip south! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

Thank you so much for the great accomodations. We had a very relaxing week. We are always on the go with our 2 boys. This week was wonderful. We went to the beach and to the pool. We grilled and cooked in. It was very laid back and relaxing. Just what we were looking to do. Thanks again for sharing your condo with us. We hope to return next year.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Thank you for opening up your home to us. This is our 12th year here on the island. We had a great time. Unfortunately we had tropical storm Debbie to deal with. Luckily the sun came out after 4 days of rain. We look forward to coming here next year.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us! My husband and I had our most relaxing vacation ever here on Sanibel. We used your Sanibel/Captiva Handbook as a guide for our week. We toured, relaxed on the beach, rode the bicycles, walked, relaxed some more, explored the island, ate delicious food and relaxed even more! I have been looking forward to this trip (my first to the island) for months and it was more than I imagined. We both agree we will definitely be back! Again--thank you! Your condo had everything we needed and more! ...Love, love, love Sanibel!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

The condo is amazing!! We traveled with two kids - 6 years old and a 3 months old baby and that place was just what we needed!. It was perfectly clean, really nice decorated and so comfortable. The parking space designed for the condo was so convenient. Kitchen was stocked with all the stuff we needed so we could prepare all the meals and enjoy them in the dining area. That place is really quiet and just perfect!!!!Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with young children.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2011
About the owner: We live in the midwest with its cold, snowy winters. We have always dreamed of getting away in the winter. We were able to retire early from our careers, and now look forward to spending part of each winter in Sanibel.
Why the Owner Chose Sanibel Arms:
We have visited Sanibel for years with our family and just knew this was the spot. We love what Sanibel has to offer--beautiful water views, gorgeous sunsets, fun beach activities and casual lifestyle.
With our family, everyone has their favorite activity. My wife and I revel in beach walks to see the sunsets and bicycling to the shops and incredible island restaurants. Our son has his greatest enjoyment fishing from the beach or docks in the refuge waterways. Our daughters love sunning on the beach, shelling, and shopping at the many quaint shops.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
We are delighted with the location of our condo. Our complex is right on the beach; the bike path is just across the street; the boat dock has access to the gulf.
