Charming beach cottage. Compact space but has everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Nancy is a 5 star host and extremely responsive. The proximity to the beach is the icing on the cake. So easy and convenient.
The place was better than I expected. I loved the way it was decorated. The bed was very comfortable! The Host was excellent. She answered all my questions before I went as well as while I was there. She really cares about your stay! I recommend this place for a great get away. You are also just right there at the beach!!! I would love to come back!
Owner deceived us knowing my husband was handicapped as we had to drive to the beach NOT a 2 minute walk as advertised ! Knowing we were unhappy she offered to refund us & then changed her mind & refusing to do so!
There was NO grill as advertised !
Will NEVER return ! No broom in house
either..
The accessibility of what we wanted to include in our trip- Bubble Room, Blind Pass,Lighthouse Beach, Bowman Beach for sunsets - the rental beach for sunrise’s Everything we needed was in the rental. The luxury of the towels did NOT go un noticed. The cleanliness was so delightful. Suggestion: need new beach chairs - it was very difficult to open and shut the chairs. Finding the delightful area that the BLUE Giraffe restaurant was located was an extra surprise. Will be returning. Nancy responded sooo quickly and with much help - gave an extra feeling of security.
Loved this little property. Great location and just steps away from the beach and close some really great restaurants! The cottage was very clean and just perfect for 1 person or a couple. I really enjoyed my stay and will definitely be back for another stay!
This newly renovated property was a perfect site for a family vacation. Very close to the beach and basically brand new, the property was very relaxing. Thank you!
We loved everything about our stay. It was exactly as presented. We couldn't have ask to be closer to the beach for the price. It is 2 minutes or less. We would definitely stay there again!
The property was really nice. We met some great people staying next door. The room was bright and clean. The screen porch was very nice. The only thing that could be an issue for someone would be the shower is very very small. We loved our stay in Sanibel and would love to stay at this property again.
Property well groomed, so close to the beautiful beach. Accommodations comfortable, lacking night stand on one side of bed, and a dresser to be able to store clothes. We found refrigerator much too small at times, one addition that would be great would be a water hose at the Studio entrance as well. Felt like I was imposing on the other renters when we went to wash off sand after the beach, since hose near there door/porch. Would love to rent property again in the near future! Thank you for sharing your home! Heidi K.
All went well, host was communicative, place was cozy for myself and would have been similarly if I’d brought another. Very close to beach which was nice.

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Disappointed
We found the photos online not to be accurate to current unit conditions. Unit is tired and certainly the bathroom from a different era. Baseboard trim in need of repair, cabinets peeling, different furniture, etc. Owners price seemed fair but inclusive of all fees Unit was overpriced. We discovered other properties on the water with pools etc.for nearly the same total price. This unit was clean with a comfortable bed and owner did communicate well. Disappointed.
This was a great location, host was incredible, and we’d happily stay here again. It is an older property but had all that we needed and the two minute walk to the beach was perfect. Nancy was so helpful when we needed her for questions. Loved the grill outdoors. Only gave it a 4 because could use just a smidge of updating but if it never changed we’d come back.
