As for those tiny no-seeums, they're going to be with us for a while, or at least until the wildlife and ecosystem rebounds enough to restore the balance post-Hurricane Ian so that the turtles, frogs, dragonflies, lizards and birds can enjoy them as part of their normal diet. We can also provide helpful tips to reduce your chances of being nibbled on, as well as a few tried-and-true remedies to reduce the itching if you do experience some bites.

Facing the water and just a short walk to the beach, we had everything we needed for our weeklong stay. We are looking forward to returning in the near future. The condo was extremely clean and well equipped. The beds were super comfy. Such a beautiful property!
Exactly as described! Had a question or two that were addressed personally and very quickly! Super clean, beautiful view, very comfy bed! Thank you for a great experience!

The unit was really nice. Nice view too. Checkin process was a little inconvenient as you have to drive to the office (several miles away) to checkin and out. And only key access even though the door has keypads. But not a deal breaker for the lovely place.

Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2021
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Sept 2023
Dear Belle,
We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay - and the beautiful view - at Loggerhead Cay #143, and we look forward to technology improving enough that we can introduce keyless check-in at some point in the future.
The new technology relies heavily on good cell service and steady power, both of which aren't quite ready for prime time on the islands! Until we're able to provide exceptional cell service to control remote locks, we err on the side of caution and require check-in at our office.
We do like to make sure that you arrived safely, and by collecting your key packet at our office, we are able to provide island newspapers, tide charts, review the wifi, cable, Farmers Market and other fun things to do with you in person, at a safe social distance.
With remote check-in, we wouldn't know if you actually arrived, or put a face to your name and voice :)
The lock the owners chose is not able to be reprogrammed remotely, so we are unable to change the key code after every guest departure. And, we have discovered that while the keypads ARE wonderful, it's not so wonderful when the batteries die, leaving guests locked out in the middle of the night (or a hot summer day). So, providing a key guarantees that you can get in, day or night, without issue or need for an emergency lockout call.
We look forward to assisting you with planning your next vacation; and, we hope to be able to offer reliable remote check-in services to you at that time!
With Sunny Regards,
Sharon and the Cottages to Castles Team
Clean, nicely furnished, great beach views, just steps from beach. Beach chairs, umbrella, folding cart, etc. made it convenient. Very cosy and comfortable condo. Kitchen stocked with utensils, but no condiments/oil/etc. Plan to use bug spray as summer evenings brings out no-see-um bugs at the beach.

Dear Mayur,
Thank you for choosing Loggerhead Cay 143 as your home away from home for your Sanibel vacation. We are thrilled that you enjoyed the views, beach chairs and cart, and we're sorry that the no-seeums liked to keep you company. They can be pesky at dawn and dusk in the absence of a breeze.
We are not permitted to leave condiments, as Florida vacation rentals fall under the same category as hotels. It would be fabulous if we could provide them!
We would welcome the opportunity to assist you in planning your next Sanibel getaway. Until then, keep dreaming of Sanibel!
