~Where Every Day Starts with Sunrise Over Your Private Dock~

Boaters, anglers, and water enthusiasts, this is your dream home. License to Chill isn't just a clever name—it's a lifestyle. This stunning bayside Gulf-access home puts you minutes from Pine Island Sound and the Gulf of Mexico, where world-class fishing, waterfront dining, and endless ...adventures await.

The Ultimate Waterfront Location

Positioned on Sanibel's coveted bayside with deep-water canal access, License to Chill is your personal gateway to some of Florida's best fishing and boating. Launch at sunrise to chase tarpon and snook, cruise to waterfront restaurants for lunch, spot dolphins and manatees from your dock, or simply watch the water shimmer as birds fish in the early morning light.

This is what island living looks like when you put the water first.

~Light, Bright & Professionally Designed~

This impeccably furnished 3-bedroom, 2-bath multi-level home showcases the talent of local on-island designers throughout. Soaring ceilings and floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors flood the great room with natural light while framing your spectacular east-facing canal and dock views.

Wake to breathtaking sunrises that paint the water in gold and pink, sip your morning coffee while watching herons fish, and feel your shoulders drop as the deep-water canal view works its calming magic.

~The Great Room: Where Everyone Gathers~

How do I keep mosquitoes and no-see-ums away during my beach vacation? The best defense is an insect repellent with Picaridin, paired with light, long-sleeve coverage when you're not in the water. Loose, breathable long sleeves and pants block bites well, but that's not always practical at the beach, pool, or swimming in the Gulf — so a good Picaridin-based repellent is your go-to.

Guest favorites include Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus Picaridin Aerosol Spray and Bug Guard Wipes/Lotion (available on Avon. com), and Sawyer Picaridin Lotion (available on Amazon). Picaridin is effective against both mosquitoes and no-see-ums, doesn't feel greasy like Deet, and won't damage swimsuits or patio furniture. Apply before heading outside in the early morning or evening, when both pests are most active.
