Our family absolutely loved this condo! It was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—just steps from the beach and close to great dining and shops. We enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, and all the thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. We can’t wait to come back!"

We selected this unit for the views, king master and separate beds for our 2 kids. Everything was as expected. View was amazing. Kitchen had all the necessities we needed for breakfasts & lunches at home. Ample towel supply. Appreciate the pool being so close and having a couple of options to rinse off before going back up to the unit. We missed the detail about there being an elevator until we were leaving but our kids needed the exercise anyway! no problems parking. Communication with host was great. Area was so much fun to explore. Pic is the beach outside of the condo. We enjoyed the colors of the sky each night of our stay.

Husband and Wife Long Weekend

The listing for the property, especially the video that accompanied it was very misleading. The video showed lushly landscaped grounds and a beautiful fully functioning pool area. In reality there was construction work going on in the building and multiple buildings, Noise, chain link fences in the parking lots, torn up grounds and the pool, while it looked fine wasn't open to the public. The unit itself was very nice and well appointed and furnished but the grounds and the construction noise was a huge turnoff.

There was still some construction happening on the oceanfront condos during our stay, and the pool was in the process of reopening — it finally opened the day before we left. The resort pool is open - for a fee - I would recommend the food voucher option. That said, the condo itself is spectacular and truly needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. The wraparound balcony/lanai was our go-to spot during the dramatic late-night storms, offering a front-row seat to Florida’s impressive lightning shows — all while Sanibel stayed dry.Check-in was a breeze, and Candy was fantastic to work with — quick responses and easy communication made everything smooth. Our kids loved having their own room with separate queen beds, and my wife especially appreciated the provided Picaridin for the no-see-ums (I really should’ve used it too!).To the next family who stays here: enjoy every moment. Hopefully, you’ll feel just as at home as we did.

Family Vacation June 2022

We had a wonderful time in Sanibel. The condo was perfect. The view of the pool and ocean was amazing. We had plenty of room for our party of 5. Candy was very responsive to any of my inquiries. We loved that the condo included beach/pool towels and beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. We have found our new favorite place to stay on the island. This is the first time we have visited Sanibel in June. We found the heat to be bearable especially having the pool and ocean right outside your door. Much less traffic than during busy season. We were able to walk right in to most of our favorite restaurants: Traders, Thistle Lodge, Doc Fords, Sanibel Cafe and Mucky Duck.

My favorite spot

This was my second time staying in this condo and I certainly do not want it to be my last... I was there once with my sweetheart, Jim. This time I came with my 3 girlfriends. It was just as enjoyable the 2nd time around. Thanks for sharing it with us. We treated it like it was our home away from home. "Tenderly""/

Very comfortable property. Shelling good along private beach area. Only suggestions would be to provide a shelling mesh bag for renters similar to what the main Sundial property does; other than that you've got everything anyone would need.

Sanibel Stunner!

We just arrived home from our trip to Sanibel & had an amazing time. We rented a condo at Sundial at Sanibel F401. We were so happy that we did! This unit is truly a home away from home. It’s well appointed & tastefully decorated. The kitchen has everything you will need from making coffee to baking cookies to mixing margaritas! The views are amazing! We overlooked the pool & had a terrific view of the ocean. We drank coffee on the lanai in the morning & cocktails in the evening. Also, the beach storage area was well stocked with new beach chairs, umbrellas & lots of children’s play toys. The complex is well maintained & taken care of. The landscaping is lush & well manicured. The pool area has lots of lounge chairs, multiple umbrellas & a beautiful pool. The best part is the distance between the pool & ocean are only footsteps away so you can take advantage of both. As vacations go, I can highly recommend this condo. We will be back soon!

Everything was really fantastic and we highly recommend the condo. Clean and efficient. The beach supplies were a plus, and it was great that they are kept in a storage area right outside the front door, which kept sand, etc. out of the condo.

Beautiful property in a great location!

We had a wonderful time at the Sundial with our 4 pre-teen/teen boys. Perfect location for them to go out to the pool and beach on their own, while we spent many leisure afternoons at the Tiki bar next door. The condo had everything we needed. Beds were comfy and bathrooms were really nice. The huge balcony overlooking the pool and beach was my favorite part of our week!

About the host

Hosted by Candace Harris

Host profile image
I have owned at the Sundial since 1994. Our family first visited in 1990 and we were hooked. My son wanted to be up before dawn to search for shell 'treasures' on the beach. We have since owned 7 Sundial condos and a South Seas condo on Captiva. We currently own F401, B306, and B307 plus a condo in Maui.

Why they chose this property

We had sold our Captiva condo because of delays in restoring at South Seas following Hurricane Charley. We had made several offers, but then we heard about the F401 owner selling and made contact. This was the far best location, top floor, and wrap around balcony. This required a complete remodel as the condo had never been updated. Today it is luxurious and our most popular rental.

What makes this property unique

Views, view, Views. Wrap around balcony with at water view from every room. Ample bedding with king in master and two queens in guest room.
