We had a nice stay at the Mango House
Jay, the property owner, was quick to respond to our questions. The beach is a short walk and very doable, it was not busy and is in good shape. A 5-minute walk back to Sanibel-Captiva Rd. takes you to a really good restaurant, Rosalita's Cantina. The duplex had good neighbors who were very friendly. Our vacation rental was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed.

Great place!
Mango House is exactly as described-clean, convenient location, well appointed etc. We stayed 5 weeks and the kitchen, washer/dryer, garage space for bikes was what we needed. Sanibel is still recovering but bike paths, beaches, one grocery, several restaurants are open. Communication with the host was excellent.

Nice layout; awesome lanai overlooking sunsets toward the lake. The place was quiet and well maintained. The beach is a 5 min bike ride away and is very quiet and lovely. 400 Rabbits Restaurant is a close walk up Rabbit road for Margaritas and Mexican food. The Rabbit Road bike path is a short walk away also. We would stay here again.

I want to thank you for sharing your home. It was the perfect getaway. The Mango House is stocked with everything that was needed (I way over packed). It was very clean and looked to be freshly painted (inside and out). It had plenty of storage (loved the Ikea closet system in master bedroom). I would highly recommend and will definitely visit again.
Gorgeous sunsets from lanai!

Living like a local at Mango house
The Mango House was the perfect place for me to work/vacation from. I loved watching the sun come up and seeing the birds in the backyard pond. Sunsets were amazing. Mango house had everything I needed. A JN Ding Darling bike ride was almost a daily occurrence along with the beautiful beach, just a short bike ride away. It was quiet, clean and the beds were comfy. Having the garage was a giant plus for me. I was lucky enough to be able to meet the owners and their family. Everything went smoothly and I will be back next year. Loved it and already missing it.

Mango House is conveniently located near bike paths, nature preserves (five minutes from Ding Darling), shopping and dining. Private beach access is an enjoyable walk or a short bike ride away. Keep an eye out as you cross the Sanibel River for alligators or a native bird feeding frenzy! Choose a book from one of the well stocked bookshelves and enjoy the screened in lanai for a good read or afternoon siesta. The lake behind the property comes to life as the sun rises and sets over the island. The bike path that runs along the lake is excellent for wildlife viewing and makes for an easy ride to the beach. The owner did not intrude and was very easy to work with. We especially enjoyed the waterfall and landscaping features installed by the adjoining duplex owner, who is an extremely talented landscape designer. The outdoor shower is wonderful!

Mango House was a perfect stay for Sanibel. I loved the funky and colorful decorating, which made it a happy place to be. We thoroughly enjoyed the huge porch overlooking the lake with all of the wildlife flying around the place. Seeing the ducks mating was quite the spectacle and seeing Bernie, the alligator. There is a fence between the lake and house. The mattresses were both brand new and very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped, which was good because we did lots of cooking there while watching the lake through the sliding glass doors. The TV was also new, which made watching the Clemson win even better. We went to the beach 2 ways. One, biking down Rabbit Road, where the drivers were very courteous and drove around us. Two, going toward Sanibel-Captiva Road, then taking the beautiful Rabbit Road West trail, which is behind the lake. The private beach has the BEST shelling on all of the island. We know because we tried them all. We found more unusual and rare shells on this beach, including 2 Alphabet Cones and a large Whelk shell. There were few people on this beach and all are close by home owners who were very friendly. No mass tourist invasion on this beach. We met Jay and Laura and found them very helpful and charming and always quick with answers to any questions we had. Their favorite restaurant, RC Otter’s, was ours, too. They had lots of great recommendations. Having the free, well maintained bikes and chairs was very convenient. Another wonderful feature was the nearness to Ding Darling Wildlife Refuge. We had a senior pass and went every day at low tide or around 4:00. We saw beautiful rosette spoonbills fluffing their wings. What a sight! We cried when we had to leave and are definitely coming back next December.

Very nice but some issues
The house was bright and cheerful and very well equipped. The owners were friendly and eager to please. The very few glitches were taken care of immediately.
That said, there were issues. We had two guests for the week who had the same impressions we did. While the printed materials and pictures are truthful they create an inaccurate impression unless you read it all very carefully.
First Rabbit Road is a very busy thoroughfare and walking it is not as comfortable as it might be. The distance to the beach is considerably longer than the impression created. It is also very easy to misunderstand that there is only cable television in the living room. As to pictures, they are edited so that you cannot be aware that the building is a duplex and not a freestanding one family. As to that the next door neighbor and driveway sharer has a thriving landscaping business. Her garage doors are always open; there is some traffic in and out; and at night it looks like a truck terminal with a huge open bed truck parked for the night
The house was well kept. The advertised yard maintenance was non existent.
None of this ruined our time but things were not perfect. Overall we had a good time.

Thank you for your review. Laura and I are sorry that your stay was not 5-star like our previous guests. We were surprised by this after all of our positive conversations during your stay.
We're sorry that you misunderstood our property description in VRBO. We do not edit our pictures and it is stated in the first paragraph of our property description that Mango House is a duplex. We have never had anybody complain about this aspect of Mango House in the past.
Laura and I tried very hard to handle every issue you brought to our attention in a timely and courteous manner, and we appreciate your acknowledgement of that. We take great pride in our customer service and always hope to build strong bonds with our guests.
We do pay a professional to do our landscaping, and will look into what happened there. Had we known our service was not being correctly provided, we would have handled it quickly just like everything else that you brought to our attention.
The beach access is 1/2 mile from Mango House as noted in the VRBO literature and on the VRBO map. We will speak to our neighbor about what you describe as an open bed truck, as we are not comfortable with that either.
We appreciate your rental and wish you the best!
Sincerely,
Jay and Laura Cerny

Nice place to stay on Sanibel Island
I spent the month of December at Mango House and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The house is well appointed and offers visitors close access to the beach, Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge, and Doc Ford's Restaurant- all withing walking distance!! The owners provide bicycles for those who choose to use them. I used the house as a base for birding and photography, and it was very well situated for those activities. The neighbors are quite friendly and helpful- that's a plus. It was a nice stay, and I found the owners to be very responsive to any questions or issues. They made wonderful recommendations for places to eat and visit. Anyone who stays here will surely enjoy it.

Deserves 5 stars and more
We are getting ready to pack up after a wonderful month at Mango House. We liked it so much, we are booked for next year. We appreciated all of the suggestions provided by the owners for sights to see. Thanks to the bikes provided, we spent many hours on Sanibel's bike paths. We appreciated being able to lock up beach chairs to the beach access path fence and not have to carry them back and forth. The home is well equipped, both in the kitchen and on the bookshelves. We spent lots of time sitting on the screen porch looking over the Sanibel River and did see some alligators swim by. We did buy bike flashers for the bikes for the short time on Rabbit Road, which does not have a bike path. We found drivers to be courteous, giving way to the bikers and pedestrians. Thank you to the owners for making their home available to others so we can escape the winter of MI and enjoy Sanibel.

Such a fabulous place to stay we bought a house across the street!
We’ve been renters at Mango House for the past 5 winters and have loved every minute of our time here. It’s spacious, comfortable, modern and stylish and the open plan main room and lanai have beautiful water and sunset views. The house is equipped with everything you could possibly need, from bikes and beach gear, to a library and huge puzzle collection, to a kitchen that has it all. Added to that, Mango is in a great position, right in the middle of the island. That means it’s really peaceful and surrounded by wildlife; we’ve seen eagles, ospreys, woodpeckers, ibis and all kinds of heron from the yard. But you’re only a short bike ride or walk to the famous refuge at Ding Darling, or to the fabulous uncrowded shelling beach at the bottom of the road, or to Doc Fords (a really great restaurant). And it’s only a couple of minutes drive “downtown” to the shops and restaurants along Periwinkle, or the kayak rentals at Tarpon Bay, or a bit further to the boat trips running from Captiva. When you're not busy relaxing, there is just so much to do here.
Sanibel is, pretty much, a perfect place and this has been the perfect Sanibel rental for us. We’ve now lived in the house for 10 months over the past 5 years - we felt completely at home the moment we first arrived and we still really love living here. Thank you Jay and Laura for being fantastic owners and making us feel so welcome, we’re going to miss the place a lot. But we’re not going far, and now we’re your neighbors!
Sally and Chris - We will truly miss you! - but we're still happy because we're now neighbors. You were such wonderful guests and always friends. We look forward to seeing you during our (all too) brief ventures back to the wonderful island we love so much!

Mango house is tucked away down a quiet lane. It is the perfect place to get away from it all and enjoy a magical island time! We all enjoyed taking out the fun beach cruiser bikes and riding them to the. Each or to the grocery store or just all around the island. There are wonderful bike paths all over the island.
The house is beautiful! It is clean and comfortably furnished. The owners have thought about everything we might want while we are there. We have a wonderful experience with the owners!

Nice House and Great vacation spot !
My wife and I stay in this house for the month of February. Great weather and great shelling on the beach.
Riding a bike on Rabbit rd is very dangerous at times and you really need to be careful.
The worst part was dealing with the owners since they were not very honest with us. We still had a great time!

Respuesta de VrboOwner el 9 de sept de 2023
The issue was that our guests became frustrated that they could not re-rent for the same month during the next year. Our guests typically inquire about re-renting during the month of their stay. Unfortunately, these guests emailed their request three weeks after the end of their stay and by that time, we assumed they were not interested in re-renting and we already had another contract. We regret that we could not accommodate these guests for a return stay due to their late notification. Laura and I take tremendous pride in our customer service, integrity, and relationships with our guests. We feel very sorry about this unfortunate situation.

Marvelous Mango House
What a wonderful "home away from home"! Mango House had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable: well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, bikes, beach toys, and a wonderful lanai to sit on and watch the neighborhood wildlife. The house was a short bike ride to the beach and to a wonderful restaurant, Doc Fords. The owners were extremely helpful, and provided us with tons of suggestions of things to do, restaurants to try, and stores to shop at. We jokingly said many times during our stay, "Did Jay recommend that?" because the few times we veered off of his list, we regretted it! We ate fresh mango and coconut from trees in the yard, enjoyed shelling (and tossing back all the live critters we found in the tidal pools), had a friendly bird identifying competition, and were thrilled at the schools of rays, the sweet manatees, and especially the once in a lifetime opportunity to watch a momma loggerhead, head in to shore to lay her eggs! Definitely a vacation to remember! Thanks Jay and Laura!!!

Mango House was a delight...
Mango House was a delightful place to stay. The beach was secluded and wonderful for shelling and viewing wildlife. We enjoyed watching dolphins playing in the waves. The house was fully equiped with beach gear as well as in-house entertainment. There was an extensive collection of books, games, and movies. The kitchen had everything you could need. The beds were comfortable and the whole place was very clean. We enjoyed watching birds from the screened porch. I would definitely rent this one again.

Mango House in Sanibel, Florida was a perfect warm weather retreat for my companion and myself. The house itself is bright, open, and cheery. It is tastefully furnished, with comfortable beds and seating areas. Whether you cook in, or heat up takeout, the kitchen has everything you might need. My next visit I will know not to bring any reading materials as there are several large bookcases filled with an assortment of books, for at least a month of reading. There are movies and games galore, I have never stayed in a beach house that was so completely furnished that you only need bring your swimsuit and camera. Relaxing on the lanai and watching the herons, egrets, and other birds fly across the lake was one of my favorite activities. Of course the beach, which never had more than 2 other people in sight at any time, was another favorite place. A short bike ride away, it was beautiful from early morning to the daily sunset watching hour. Since the island is so flat, bike riding is very easy, even for a novice. The house is equipped with bicycles, beach chairs, and other paraphernalia, and you can carry a lot of shells back in your bike basket!
We had an outstanding vacation in December at the "Mango House". Looking out at the freshwater lake, we were totally relaxed and surrounded by a natural wild life preserve. The owners were very friendly and had everything we needed.. even binoculars to watch the native birds from our lanai. Furnished with everything new...IKEA Danish modern in tropical colors, complete kitchen, new bikes, a large, private backyard, very close to one of the world's best beaches, spectacular sunsets from the large lanai and the beach, grandchildren loved every minute! Shelling was the best. Close to everything..no need to leave the island. Will be back.

Welcome from Jay and Laura Cerny - the owners of Mango House.
Laura and I were married in 1986 (& 20 year 'renewed' on Sanibel in 2006 - pictured above - 5 months before we bought Mango House). We have three wonderful adult children, Austin, Madison, and Garret. Laura is a Colorado gal and I'm a Florida guy. We live in Colorado where I am the executive director for a group of charter schools, and Laura is a commercial interior designer. We met in Dallas back in 1983 while at SMU for grad school. While Laura grew up in Boulder, CO; I lived in Boca Raton and Fort Myers during my childhood. I went to Fort Myers High School before college in New York, and have fond memories of skipping school to go to Sanibel in 1975-79. I also worked college summers (1980-82) at South Seas Plantation on Captiva as a waiter at Chadwicks (sadly closed in 2004, but since reopened as Doc Fords Captiva, sadly closed again after Hurricane Ian)
Laura and I have been visiting Sanibel together since 1984, and we also own three Sanibel timeshares at CasaYbel for weeks 50/51/52. About 16 years ago, we reached the (obvious for us) conclusion that we wanted to "part-time" retire on Sanibel and set out to find a house that would suit our needs. We fell in love with and bought the house you see in the pictures - Mango House. We spent the next year or so remodeling it and making it our own, adding everything we could think of to make it the perfect vacation home. (Mango House has also largely been remodeled after Hurricane Ian October 2022 - April 2023.) Since we also have our primary residence in Colorado, we rent out Mango House for a good portion of the year.
Por qué escogió este alojamiento
What more can we say..... We just love Sanibel Island! Some people travel the world. We travel to Sanibel. It is everything we want in a vacation - and more! The beach access for Mango House is very secluded with no big resorts nearby, and being centrally located with respect to other fantastic private West Gulf Drive beaches, Ding Darling, SCCF, etc. is a huge bonus. When we bought Mango House, we also factored in the uncrowded beach for better shelling and beach strolling. Being on a fresh water lake also has great advantages. We love to look West out across the lake at all of the wildlife, and enjoy the year-round breezes and perfect sunsets.
Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial
We provide just about everything you'd want or need for the perfect vacation! Since we were always ferrying umbrellas and chairs, etc. back and forth to Sanibel from Colorado before we bought Mango House - and realized how much of a hassle that was - we decided to make them available for our guests. The same is true for cruiser bikes, DVD's, books, puzzles, games, binoculars, shelling/birding guides, Weber barbecue grill, tennis rackets, and other beach gear. We want you to use ours!
Mango House has a modern, clean look - mostly furnished with Crate & Barrel, Pottery Barn, & West Elm. We have high-speed wireless (works great on the Lanai too!) and have done our best not to skimp on anything.
For those new to Sanibel/Captiva, we also have a large organizer notebook that lists all of our favorite things to do and places to eat on Sanibel and Captiva. We have menus from most every local restaurant along with our favorite selections at each... Enjoy!
