The condo is beautifully updated and decorated. It was in a great location with an easy and short walk to the beach and a quick drive into an area with shops and restaurants. The owner was always available to assist and had items delivered via Amazon when I inquired about them. The owner provided beach chairs, an umbrella, and beach towels which were nice to have ready to go to enjoy the beach. We had a lovely stay in this Condo.

About the host

Hosted by Amanda

Host profile image


We’re a Wisconsin family who loves trading snow for sunshine, and we’re thrilled to welcome you to our new coastal getaway!

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it sits just steps from Sanibel’s stunning beaches. Being able to walk to the Gulf for shelling at sunrise or relaxing sunsets at night was a dream come true for us.

What makes this property unique

Boutique Gulf-front living in a quiet 40-unit community, just steps to Sanibel’s shell-filled beach and heated pool. Fully renovated in 2025 with modern coastal finishes, this condo offers two private bedroom suites, resort-style amenities, and an uncrowded, peaceful setting. Walk straight to the sand, enjoy pickleball, tennis, BBQ areas, and lush tropical grounds — all without the crowds of large complexes. A rare blend of privacy, location, and fresh design.
