Beach view is great. The table and chairs on the porch are very good. The other two chairs were a bit uncomfortable (short and hardwood). The condo met all our expectations - was clean, comfortable and good appliances. Shell Island Beach Club is a great location and very good on-site staff.

We loved this property, the location, the ocean view, the furnishings etc. Upon check in, I had sent a message to the management company regarding mold on the shower curtain with a photo, and they did not respond which was disappointing.

Nice location. Very clean and beautiful views. Need to upgrade your bedroom TV and ensure pillowcases for your large pillows. Also a King blanket would be better than a queen on there today. We will return soon.

We loved the location & view. Fully equipped condo.

We really enjoyed our stay. The view was amazing. The condo was comfortable with everything that one would need. There are 25 steps up to the condo, but that added to having the great view. Just be prepared to do steps. The master bathroom was nice but had some problems with mildew in the shower. We throughly enjoyed our stay there.

Beautiful gulf front property

The condo was lovely with a great view of the gulf and steps from both the gulf and the pool. It was the nice quiet retreat we needed from the worries of the time. The island is beautiful and welcoming even during the Covid-19 pandemic. The condo was so clean and obviously sanitized, great job making us feel comfortable and safe. We will be back when things are more normal! We expect to visit a lot since we’re only a couple hours away in St. Petersburg area.

Wonderful Vacation

Thank you so much, we had such a lovely time. The unit was as nice as the wonderful pictures and it’s a lovely part of the island. It is more isolated, which we like; just means you might need a car to get groceries. We really miss it, look at pictures often, and can’t wait to go back some day. Thank you again!

Nice condo close to the beach.

There was a cooole if minor issues noted such as a plugged dryer vent and a dish washer that did not clean to our liking. But overall pleased with the location and amenities in the complex.

Great Beach Getaway

This condo was the perfect spot for our week at the beach! We loved having access to one of the quieter portions of the beach, a private walkway up to the condos and also access to the pool. The condo itself was well taken care of, had great beds and bathrooms, and was well stocked in the kitchen with all the tools we needed to cook throughout the week. It was great to have beach chairs and umbrellas provided and access to bikes as well. We loved sitting out on the screened in porch during the evenings with a beautiful view of the beach. Noise from neighbors was minimal and the check in/check out process was a breeze. Staying at Shell Island Beach Club is my first choice whenever we visit Sanibel Island!
