Absolutely incredible family vacation. Loved being on the first floor. Beautiful view. Big kitchen. So many amenities. There was clearly a lot of thought from the owners about what would make a great beach vacation on a tiny island. The beach chairs and trolly to carry everything out to the beach were so helpful. I’m actually on the app right now to book again next year.

Thank you so much for being such loyal renters and the GREAT review we greatly appreciate it. 🥰
Our second year at the condo and had a perfect time. It is so attractively furnished as is the Loggerhead Cay property well maintained. You can’t get a better beachview! We appreciate all the attention to detail with the amenities of bath and beach towels, soaps, etc and the thoughtful cabinet of “if you have forgotten” items.The kitchen provides about everything needed with plates, glassware, utensils- it would be nice to have a few more coffee mugs and one or two more serving plates if possible.We highly recommend this place to vacation.

Thank you so much for the awesome review. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay.
From the parking spot right outside the unit to when you open the condo dorm and see your view of the gulf outside of your 1st floor unit you feel you have the right unit to enjoy time on Sanibel Island. Short walk to the sands and a wonderful deck to relax when you just want to read and relax with the beach in view. The hosts responded quickly to texts and were able to answer questions and bring by the light bulb we ended up needing.

So VERY glad you enjoyed your stay! Love that you added the pics. Thanks for taking the time for a wonderful review!
Picture perfect condo and location!! The condo was pristinely kept and updated beautifully with all the vacation details attended to for my husband and I and our two adult children. Incredible views, and ideal location for beach, pool and even parking. Mary was exceptionally responsive and helpful for our Christmas week in Sanibel. We’ve been coming to Sanibel for over 30 years and this was our best trip yet! Thank you Mary and Keith!

Amy, Thanks for staying in our little piece of paradise AGAIN!!!! We ❤️Return customers and your great review!
Wonderful stay from beginning to end! Host was responsive and provided updates on planned maintenance (that did not impact our stay at all!). The condo is gorgeous!! Well laid out, comfy beds, everything you could need in the kitchen, bathroom and for the beach. We very much appreciated the beach chairs, toys and wagon as well as the books and games to pass the non-beach time. Everything was perfect and we hope to return soon!!

Thank you so very much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review. We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay.
Clean, updated, and right on the beach. As my kids said "ITS RIGHT ON THE BEACH!"This was our second year staying at Logger Head, but our first year in this unit. My biggest complaint about coming to FL is that the units often feel very dated. When I walked into this unit I was struck that it felt fresher. It still had the charms of a FL beach condo, but it felt like someone had given it some life. I was worried about being right on the walking path/beach feeling like an animal at the zoo. I never once felt like that to my surprise. If anything, I liked being right next to the boardwalk because it made getting to and from the beach with two kids very easy. If our spring break wasn't changing dates next year I would have been rebooking this so fast.

We’re really glad this unit stood out to you. We’ve put a lot of effort into updating it while still keeping that laid-back beach feel, so it’s great to hear that came through. And we love that your kids were just as excited about being right on the beach—that’s the best part!
Totally understand your concern about the boardwalk, but we’re happy it ended up being a bonus. It really does make beach trips with kids so much easier.
Had a great week long stay at this beautiful condo! Stayed here with family and everything was clean and had anything you need! Just steps from the beach with a beautiful view and lanai to relax on.
Beautigul condo and great location. We would book again!
