Ground Floor Pointe Santo Residence, Fantastic Resort Amenities

Summary:
This beautiful ground floor unit in the highly esteemed Pointe Santo de Sanibel development features a walkout patio/lanai located just a few steps away from the pool and beach. Featuring direct Gulf views from its spacious patio, you can quite literally roll out of bed onto the beach. Boasting two large bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a modern kitchen with island, and spacious dining area, lanai and access to fantastic amenities, this is the perfect spot for your next vacation! Totally Remodeled in 2025!

The Space:
Unit D1 is a two bedroom, two bath residence with a walk out lanai that faces both the Gulf and Pointe Santo grounds. It is located in the D building of the Pointe Santo de Sanibel community on West Gulf Drive. Sleeping arrangements are a King bed in the master bedroom, a double and a twin bed in the guest bedroom (has its own patio perfect for Yoga or meditation at Sunrise or just a little extra privacy) in addition to a non-sleeper sofa in living room for overflow guests. The residence features a well equipped new kitchen outfitted with an island and all appliances guests will need while staying with us for a vacation or an extended stay. Unit D1 also has a deeded parking space across from the unit front door entrance. There are guest spaces available around the property if you have visitors.

Unit D1 is well cared for and furnished well for a week’s vacation or an extended stay on Sanibel Island. We supply 4 beach chairs for you and shelling tools, some children’s toys and other beach items and lanai furniture. Unit D1 is well situated to make easy use of these amenities while remaining private and quiet while in the condo or the lanai. The kitchen is well equipped with all that you would need for a week’s vacation or an longer stay. We supply a combination Keurig drip and K-cup Coffee Maker as well. We also stock non glass Coffee Mugs for taking to the beach with you if you’d like a beverage on the beach. What makes this unit unique is the back porch perfect for early morning relaxing or outdoor coffee.

Pointe Santo is known for its well-kept grounds, Beach and Shelling opportunities, and as a safe and secure place to stay. It’s a perfect vacation spot for families or couples. Most of our guests are return renters and come back every year. D1 is close to restaurants and grocery stores – a short car or bike ride away. Biking is very popular on Sanibel as there are nearly 26 miles of paved bike paths on the island – and miles more unpaved in sanctuary areas.

Great time!

Pointe Santo is an awesome codo complex! Has everything you need for a great vacation! The condo was clean, pretty well appointed, could use a new coat of paint and the master bed a new mattress, but other than that nice place to stay! Steps to the beach, quiet at night, quiet during the day for that matter! Really nice time!

Nice family condo

Nicely updated ground floor unit. Pointe Santo is a really nice property and all units have a water view. While D-1 is at the back of the property, the walk to the beach is not far. Owners were very helpful in receiving some things we needed before we arrived: We would definitely return!

Nice place to spend time in a beautiful place.

Our family spent a week at the condo at D1. We really enjoyed the porch (lanai). Thanks to the owner for the beach chairs supplied at the condo! We used them every day. The condo was well supplied otherwise with everything we needed for our time on the island.

Best Spring Break

We had an amazing spring break! The condo is nicely upgraded and had everything we needed. Being on the ground floor made it very easy with the kids and they loved the pool/activities. The beach was beautiful and we enjoyed shell hunting. Ellen was very responsive to any questions. We didn’t want to come home and will definitely be back.

Sno”w”vember in Florida

The condo was nice. Ellen was easy to reach with questions. We enjoyed missing the first snow fall in Cincinnati which was great!! i think it would be a good idea for someone to take inventory before a new renter comes in to make certain items listed are still available. Weather was awesome 😎. Thank you!

Fantastic Condo

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Pointe Santo complex on Sanibel Island in Aug, 2016. The weather was a little hot, but overall we had a wonderful time. The condo was clean and spacious. Our building was not the closest to the beach, but we could still see the gulf from our lanai. The grounds were well maintained and the pool was nice. Enjoyed the activities in the club house (ice cream sundaes, crafts). The small lagoon has a young gator living in it that was fun to watch. Loved the island and the overall atmosphere. Will definitely return again.

We loved the condo and it's location!

Location is absolutely perfect. It's a first floor walk-out and is a short walk to pool and beach. Outdoor grills were available, and lots of families appeared to be enjoying them. Condo was lovely. Pictures are accurate. There are a few cosmetic issues that need to be addressed - plates covering outlets and phone cords. The washing machine is quite loud, so I recommend only washing when you are out of the building.

Beautiful condo, gorgeous location, best shelling.

We come to Sanibel every year and this is now our very favorite place to stay. The condo is lovely, just as beautiful as the photos and so perfectly located on the very best shelling beach. Amenities and grounds were beautiful. Being on the first floor made it so easy to come and go from the car and just walk out the patio and stroll on the beach. What made it even better was the wonderful owner Ellen. It was just our luck to arrive a few days before hurricane Irma hit and Ellen was so very helpful and supportive talking us through what to do and even helping us make plans if we needed to evacuate. Ellen was very graciously refunding the nights we weren't able to stay due to the storm and made us feel very safe and kept us informed always. You can't beat this spot, we love it and will be coming back every year.

Best Vacation Ever !!

What an amazing vacation, so much so that next year we plan to return. I have nothing but praise for the owners. The condo is beautifully decorated, kitchen is well stocked and there are many beach chairs, boogie boards and sand toys available for all ages. We enjoyed the screened deck. Watching the afternoon storms that would occasionally pop up. The grounds are immaculate. Grills are convenient, place to meet new travelers. Such an amazing experience. I have never experienced shelling on this level. I loved finding the living sand dollars, star fish, sea urchins and shells of all shapes and sizes.

Wonderful Experience

Renting this condo was a great experience from start to finish. The owner, Ellen, was extremely responsive and helpful, responding quickly, proactively reaching out before my stay to provide all kinds of helpful info and then even checking in with me once we arrived! The condo is quiet and pretty, just as pictured, and the like-new kitchen is well appointed for those of us who like to cook. This unit has everything you need - even beach towels, chairs, toys and umbrella. The complex is great - the beach, pool and hottub are just steps away and there are plenty of grills right out your door - and they are cleaned every night for you! We had one maintenance issue (a leaky faucet) and the maintenance folks came within one hour of my call and had it fixed within 10 minutes -- great service! The grocery is a mile away and there are a couple of great restaurants within walking distance. The runners in our family loved running to and through the big nature park nearby. All in all a great rental!

Great Vacation Condo

My family (Myself, my wife, 3 yr old daughter, 3 month old daughter, and mother-in-law) flew to Ft. Meyers, the drive to the condo took about 45 minutes, so very convenient. Upon arriving at the condo, the door code worked perfectly and we were able to get in and unpack even though we arrived after dark. The condo itself was wonderful, very clean and with great amenities such as a very spacious and useful kitchen, dining area, living room, 2 bathrooms, and good room sizes. The back porch was screened in to keep out the bugs and was well stocked with beach gear that we found incredibly useful during our week stay. The beach and pool were a short walk from our condo and very convenient for a family with young children. My daughter enjoyed seeing the turtles in the pond that surrounds the pool. The grounds of the complex were very well maintained and clean, and the staff was very friendly. So to summarize - you couldn't ask for a nicer condo unit and complex for a family vacation in southwest Florida in this price range. The only reason I give this a 4 star instead of a 5 star rating is that at the particular time that we were there (mid August) the water at the beach was very murky and not crystal clear like we were expecting. Again - let me be clear - the beach access itself and the shower facilities that the condo complex provided were top notch, they also provided beach lounge chairs and the unit had umbrellas and beach toys for our use. So really my only negative is not anything about the unit or complex itself but rather that the ocean when we were there was a little underwhelming. It may have been due to the direction of the current at the time we were there, or the fact that the beach at this complex faces due south, or maybe the weather offshore during our particular stay had churned up the water. During our week stay we spent time at several of the nearby beaches including Lighthouse Beach and Bowman Beach in Sanibel, and the North End Captiva Beach up in Captiva. The water at all 3 was closer to what we expected, crystal clear and beautiful. Our favorite was Captiva, we actually spent 2 afternoons there. The location of the condo was ideal, as we were able to get to anything on Sanibel within 5 to 10 minutes, and to Captiva within about 20 minutes. Sanibel also has very nice bike paths for running or walking or riding bikes, and very nice local grocery stores and restaurants. All in all, I would highly recommend this property.

Awesome spring break spot

We loved our stay in D-1 at Pointe Santo! The condo was a great size with very nice updates and a well-stocked kitchen. We loved the first floor walkout porch for easy pool and beach access, and pickle ball and shuffleboard it’s just out the front door. The whole complex is just great. My only two minor suggestions would be to have digital alarm clocks, especially in the second bedroom so the kids know what time it is without having a device tempting them nearby, and to have a quiet close toilet seat on that bathroom like the master bath. Obviously, these are very minor adjustments I would make, but we would stay in this condo again in a heartbeat!

Pointe Santo D-1 Does Not Disappoint

This is our second stay at the Pointe Santo complex and first time in the D-1 unit. Check in and check out was easy, and Ellen was very communicative upon arrival to be sure everything was in order. The first floor location is convenient to the parking spot which is awesome when bringing in groceries, and the screened patio walk out makes it easy when walking to and from the pool and beach with all the supplies that come along with kids. The unit has a very helpful beach caddy to wheel out chairs, beach toys and beach towels (all of which are provided). The unit was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and serving dishes. Be sure to pick up any seasonings etc you may need to cook meals. Would def stay in this unit again the next time we visit Sanibel!
