About this property

Sundial Resort - Magnificent Gulf View condo - B402

The elevator is still under construction, but is scheduled for final inspection the first week of July.

The heated, beachfront, pool is open and located right behind the building.

A full size washer and dryer are in the unit.

This non smoking, top floor, home away from home has stunning gulf views, evident the minute you open the door. The unit sits slightly behind the beachfront building but, it is about as close to beachfront as you get, without paying beachfront prices. Located at the quiet, west end of the Sundial complex, it is steps to Sanibel's beaches and away from the commotion and crowds of the resort.

Wall to wall, floor to ceiling sliding glass doors, across the bedroom and living room, maximize the breathtaking view. The sliders open to a, full width, screened lanai. The fourth floor location affords the security to leave the sliders open, so you can take in the sound of the surf and the sea breezes, even as you sleep.

The bedroom is walled off from the living room, making it convenient for an extended stay or when sharing the unit. A, comfortable, queen, sofa bed is available for additional guests.

The building has an elevator and a wagon for hauling your belongings to the unit and beach.

The unit is well stocked with everything I could think of that might be needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is equipped with a full size refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, blender, coffee maker, tea pot, crock pot and all that you need for cooking and dining.

You will find a 50" smart TV, in the living room, and a 43” smart TV, in the bedroom. Both have cable with a Blu-Ray/DVD player. A small DVD and book library, as well as games and puzzles, are provided for your use. Free wifi is available.

Two 1-speed bikes and helmets, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach toys, beach towels and coolers are available, for your use.

PLEASE NOTE: This unit does NOT include use of the resort amenities, such as the resort pool, fitness room and hot tub. If you desire these amenities, you must rent through the resort, for a substantially higher price. At the moment, they are offering a Daycation option, but this is not guaranteed to continue. Contact the resort regarding availability and price. Most people do not find the resort amenities worth the extra expense.

The resort bar, tiki bar, pizzeria, ice cream shop, market and all resort restaurants are open to the public.

The tennis and pickleball courts are, also, open to the public and may be reserved through the resort, for a fee.

You will find "Sanibel Delight", is an ideal retreat for a family vacation, honeymoon or relaxing getaway. Come stick your toes in the sand and find out what Sanibel has to offer.

The condo was fully stocked, even with everything you would need for the beach. The water is perfect for little ones, with smaller waves, about 3 1/2' deep out pretty far, and lots of cool shells. The condo was very clean.

Fantastic place and location!

We had a fantastic time at this condo. It was perfect for our family of 4. The condo was stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing beach stay, including beach chairs and towels and sand toys and bikes. The kitchen was well equipped and the place was clean and comfy. We enjoyed coffee on the balcony overlooking the ocean each morning and having the beach so close. Our only complaint is that we had to leave when our vacation was over :( wish we could stay forever!

The unit was perfect for our stay. The view was beautiful, and the unit had everything we could need. Paula has seriously thought of everything. I have never stayed in such a well-appointed vacation home before. The resort where the property is located, is beautiful manicured - both the beach and pool are steps away. We definitely would like to stay again, just next time for longer!

Feels Like Home

This property was perfect for our family of 3. We have stayed at several properties at the Sundial Resort - all booked through VRBO type sites - and by far, this property offers the most as far as the amenities available (ie. bikes, beach toys, sun chairs, etc). Paula even has the unit stocked with the basics (salt, pepper, oil, coffee filters, laundry soap, etc) which is really nice! At some of the other properties we've stayed at, we've had to purchase these items. We look forward to staying here again!

Beautiful condo

This was our first time in this condo. The unit is immaculate and had all the necessary equipment ie kitchen, linens, beach equipment plus a wagon for bringing items up to the 4th floor. The view is lovely. Being on the 4th floor makes for a much quieter location - a nice plus. The owner was very nice to work with - very efficient and accommodating . We plan to l return next year to this unit.

Wonderful!

First time in sanibel and certainly won't be the last. Really beautiful island with lots to offer. The condo is lovely with great views of the ocean. It was like taking your house on holiday, beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable. We used the bicycles to see the island and the beach to relax afterwards watching the dolphins and shell pickers. Paula is very helpful and generous with information, she was responsive frequently via email. Overall we had a wonderful 3 days in Sanibel my only regret was it wasn't longer so we will be back!

Sanibel Delight is delightful

Sanibel Delight was the perfect place for my daughter and I to stay on our trip to Sanibel. It was clean, spacious, and had everything you could possibly want from beach toys to a fully stocked kitchen! Did I mention the view! It was beautiful! I loved sitting out on the lani watching the ocean & hearing the sound of the surf. Paula was great to rent from. She was very responsive to any questions I had. She also had a book of info on the island that included restaurants, things to do, etc. My daughter loved the Sea School that was offered at the resort and the Island cow had an amazing breakfast! Hope to be back some day!

Ultimate relaxation

This property made our very first visit to Sanibel Island a remarkable experience. We planned for a week of rest & relaxation and that’s exactly what we got! The owner really has thought of everything you could possibly need during your stay! We especially enjoyed our morning coffee on the lanai overlooking the gulf, our walks on the beach, and getting around the island on the bikes she has available. The condo is very clean and inviting and well maintained. Our only regret was not utilizing the beach chairs and umbrellas. But, we will do that next time because we would definitely come back to this condo!

About the host

Hosted by Paula Reiss

Host profile image
I grew up in Louisville, KY. My mother always called me 'nature girl'. From my youngest photos, I seemed to always have an animal nearby. I spent most of my life working with animals in one capacity or another, so when I visited a friend on Sanibel and discovered the natural beauty of the place, I was hooked.

Why they chose this property

In the mid 1980's, I took a job working at C.R.O.W (Care and Rehabilitation of Wildlife), the wildlife rehabilitation hospital on Sanibel. I got to know the island and it's unique, nature - friendly attitudes. I left that job after a couple of years but have continued to vacation on Sanibel, regularly. I never found any place else that brought me the peace and tranquility of this island. It is a special place.

What makes this property unique

I searched for several years before finding just the right property. When I opened the front door and saw the phenomenal view, I knew my search was over. Although it is not technically beachfront, it's pretty darn close!
This condo has everything I looked for on my vacations, washer/dryer, comfortable sized rooms, large screened lanai. Add to that the fact that nothing can ever be built in front of my unit, to spoil the view, I was sold.
Although I am more of a beach person, it is nice to have a pool right outside the building and the complex is NOT next to a public beach, so it isn't crowded.

The 4th floor location makes it safe to sleep with the doors open, listening to the surf. It is a truly great place to spend time.
