About this property

The Parrot Nest is one of the Old-Sanibel cottages located on the quiet East End of the island. Since 1955, our charming cottages have been welcoming visitors and until the early 1960's they were brought to our shores from the mainland by ferryboat.
Our cottages are newly renovated in a coastal decor offering you epic comfort, relaxation in a beautiful room. We are within walking distance to the historic Sanibel Lighthouse and fishing pier, beautiful shelling beaches, shopping and restaurants.
If you like, use our complimentary bikes and explore miles of paths covering the island and leading to wildlife refuges, kayaking spots, secluded beaches, and meandering past more eateries, shops, and galleries. The Toucan cottage is a charming room with a king bed and a kitchen with two burner cooktop and beautiful outdoor private patio with a table and chairs.

Toucan Cottage

Loved it. Rode bikes, only found two with air, but that is all we needed. Bathroom door would not close, needed planing. Kitchen cabinets had no handles, but I figured with a stove there had to be pots and pans and I opened from bottom. This was just curiosity as I did no cooking. We enjoyed every minute, except it was 96 every day(I am sure it was the same at home. Impressed with comeback of Sanibel and friendliness of people. Also there were no political signs! We loved restaurants -Doc Fords and Rosalitas. Breakfast at Jerry's Market Cantina!

Great little place!

This is a great little place in the heart of the East end of Sanibel. Would definitely stay again. Doesn’t have a hair dryer but otherwise had everything we needed to enjoy our time on Sanibel. Great to be back on the island!

Very nice place for 3 or 4 day trip.

Having a refrigerator and microwave made it perfect. Staying in a quiet neighborhood on Sanibel Island convenient to the beach, the bay, and everything. They even had bicycles that we used!

Sanibel Island vacation

Check in and property was fine. However, four days into our vacation we were under a mandatory evacuation due to Hurricane Ian. We left the Island Tuesday morning and will not return because the Island is destroyed including the causeway leading to it. We are now left trying to recoup money we paid for this trip.

Stayed 8 nights in Sep 2022
