I like to keep these reviews as accurate as possible. First I’ll start with the property- the condo is beautiful. Very clean, decorated beautifully and has EVERYTHING you will need for your stay and extras. Beach chairs, beach towels, sunscreen, pool noodles, tennis rackets and balls for the courts, (we also left a little floaty tube for the next guests). Kitchen was well equipped with all the essentials. Communication with the hosts was great. They were very communicative and helpful… not at all bothered by any of our questions. To no fault of the owners (or anyone really) Hurricane Ian did a number on this area and it’s still not recovered. There was a lot of stagnant water surrounding the property which was a breeding ground for mosquitos. It made it difficult to be out once the sun started going down. They swarmed us so pack your big spray. The beach near the property was covered in sea weed so it wasn’t an ideal beach to swim at. Plus side is that the public beach is only a few miles and we also spent a day at sanibel beach. Because of the standing water and immense amount of seaweed, the smell wasn’t great when the wind hit just right.
However, the view from the balcony at sunset was indescribable and we found sooo many beautiful shells because the beach wasn’t over crowded so we walked it often and collected tons of little conch shells.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and the condo and we would love to visit again in the future once the area recovers more.
