About this property

Nerita Home on Sanibel Island - Pool/Hot Tub and Walk to Beach

Welcome to our Sanibel Island vacation paradise aptly named the Nerita Home. Our vacation home-away-from-home is one of the more unique homes on the Island. Being located on Nerita Street, it is very private and surrounded by lush vegetation and natural ambiance. You wouldn't even know you're just a few minute walk away from one of the best shelling beaches in the world. Our home is stilted up one floor off the ground level. When you enter the home, you'll notice the open, modern and updated floor plan. We have a spacious living room with wall mounted TV, full kitchen that has been completely updated and has all of the high end appliances, kitchen ware and more, even a kitchenaid blender for the more serious home chefs. The main level features two bedrooms and one bathroom with one bedroom a queen bed and the other two sets of bunk beds. Up the spiral staircase is the spacious master bedroom suite with a king bed and en-suite bathroom. All of our beds have high end mattresses, bedding and bedding furniture to round out the high end, updated and natural appeal. One of the more unique aspects about our home is that there is a "guest pod" separate from the main house complete with it's own air conditioning unit, queen bed, sitting area, mini-kitchen and full bath. Perfect for guests, in-laws or anyone that want a bit more privacy. 

Ready to relax? ... walk down to the private, screened in, heated pool and hot tub. We keep the pool at 86 degrees and the hot tub at 102. Lounge around the pool, play with friends and family and enjoy a cocktail while living the Island lifestyle, if only for a month. We also have an electric bbq grill that uses pellet smoke technology. You just set the temp and it does the rest.  Once you experience our Nerita Home you won't want to stay anywhere else. Book your next Sanibel Island vacation today!

Month in Sanibel

Overall a great month at this property. Great location and wonderful curb appeal with this home. The rooms and overall living space feels smaller than the listing pictures. The Casita is being used to store owners items such as a Christmas tree etc. If the property is being advertised as a 4 bedroom home it should be treated as such. In the listing the outdoor grill is listed as a pellet grill. It is not. It is a high end charcoal grill. A bit of an inconvenience. We enjoyed our stay her and with some attention to detail it could be better a storage as

Thank you for your detailed and honest review. We're pleased to hear that you had a great month overall and appreciated the location and curb appeal of the home. We also appreciate your constructive feedback, and we apologize for any discrepancies between the listing and your experience. Room Size: We understand your comment about the rooms and living space feeling smaller than depicted in the pictures. We strive to provide accurate representations, and we will review our listing to ensure the photos and descriptions are as accurate as possible. Casita: We apologize for any confusion regarding the Casita. You are correct that it is currently being used for some small items as owner storage. We understand your point about advertising a property as a 4-bedroom home and will update the listing to reflect the accurate availability of the Casita. Grill: We also apologize for the inaccuracy regarding the grill. We will correct the listing to accurately describe it as a high-end charcoal grill. We understand that this can be an inconvenience if guests are expecting a pellet grill. We value your feedback and are committed to improving our property and the accuracy of our listings. We are addressing the issues you raised to ensure a better experience for future guests. We are glad you enjoyed your stay despite these shortcomings and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Sanibel in the future.

This would be a great house if it actually looked like the pictures advertised. The issues we had were also reported by the review for the March renters. So the owners and company knew but didn’t change anything.The big issues1. A large Christmas tree in a bag in the middle of the casita, along with a lot of baby toys. We called and someone came and moved the tree, but as stated they knew this issue for over a month.2. Several lights were not working, along the outside deck, by the spiral staircase, kitchen, etc3. The spa and pool lights and fountains were not working. We messaged and called several times. After 10 days or so, we gave up.4. This house needs a good cleaning! Dust, dirt, cobwebs, debris all throughout the house. Old shoes, dead plants, broken pool toys, etc. I cleaned the walls in the bathroom.5. The grill is not gas, as advertised . It's a nice green egg charcoal grill, however when just two of us were there, it was too much of a hassle to fire it up.We enjoyed our time there with family. We worked around the issues. The location was great, just down the street from the beach we always use. The casita was perfect for our newlywed couple, after we cleared things.This would be a good place, could be great with some TLC.

Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback on your recent stay. We are genuinely sorry to hear that the house did not meet your expectations and that you encountered multiple issues that impacted your experience. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and it's clear we fell short in several areas during your visit. We sincerely apologize for the presence of the Christmas tree and baby toys in the casita, and for the fact that this recurring issue from the March renters was not fully resolved before your arrival. This indicates a clear lapse in our quality control and communication, and we are addressing this immediately with our cleaning and staging teams. We are also very concerned to learn about the numerous non-working lights (on the deck, spiral staircase, kitchen, etc.), and especially that the pool and spa lights and fountains were not functional despite your repeated attempts to contact us. This is completely unacceptable, and we deeply regret the lack of resolution and the frustration this caused. We are investigating why these issues persisted and why your calls and messages did not result in a timely fix. Furthermore, your comments regarding the cleanliness of the house – including dust, dirt, cobwebs, debris, old shoes, dead plants, and broken pool toys – are very alarming. This does not reflect the high standards we aim to maintain, and we are immediately implementing a thorough deep-cleaning protocol and re-training with our cleaning crew.

We would love to stay in the home again next March if the owners decide not to use it.

We would love to stay in the home again next March if the owners decide not to use it. Or perhaps another year so please keep us in mind. Friendly, responsive, reliable. We are looking for a similar home for next March.
