Sanibel Beachfront Penthouse

We had a great 2 week stay. This was the first time we had stayed at this property. We were not disappointed. Beachfront location is perfect. Roof top area was nice as well as the screened lanai after a day at the beach for relaxing. Our family enjoyed our stay!

Absolutely Perfect!

The property was super clean, beautifully decorated and in an excellent location. Everything we needed was provided. The beach is just steps away. The upstairs deck was a great place to sit and relax in the sun. Check in and out was very easy with a key code. It was great not to have keys to worry about. Overall, it is absolutely perfect. We already booked for next year,!

Janet, Thank you for your lovely review! A lot of blood, sweat and tears went into our recent luxury remodel and it turned out even better than we could have imagined. We are overjoyed that it exceeded your expectations. I also enjoy the private rooftop deck with a morning cup of coffee and often see dolphins jumping near the shore in front of our condo. Our goal is to provide a well-equipped kitchen, luxury bathrooms and a comfortable home while our guests enjoy a sliver of paradise. We look forward to your return!!! Anthony and Luisa

This condo is perfect! Beautifully decorated, comfortable and very clean. Just steps to a beautiful beach. We have been renting on Sanibel for over 8 years and this is by far the best condo we have rented. We are already booked for next year! The team members responded quickly when we had questions about our stay before we came. They were very helpful in getting us booked for next year. They were very pleasant and easy to talk with.

Perfect beach condo

The condo was nicely decorated, exceptionally clean and well equipped. The only issue is poor wifi. It sounds like this is an issue with the condo complex, not the condo itself, but unfortunately it makes it tough to do much work wise other than answer emails. Other than that, absolutely perfect place and stay!

Response from VrboOwner on 10 June 2022
Really apologize about the WiFi. Everything has been restored and the association is actually switching to xfinity to provide higher speeds and better reliability. The owner is actually switching next week to make sure each guest has the best connection possible. We’ve worked along with the owner, so hard at making sure each guest has a five star stay. I can appreciate WiFi being a big deal but would hope you could see the difference between something we can control and what we can’t. Once xfinity is in place there will be more consistent high speed WiFi, but with the beach and endless gulf views, we try to distract ourselves from being connected. We’d love to welcome you back again and show you a true five star stay.

Beautiful home!

I loved the location and the home! Beautiful decor and well stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed it. The only complaint which is small, was the description on VRBO said that they provided laundry detergent and toilet paper etc so you don't have to shop for it. There was no dishwasher soap and only 2 detergent packs and not enough toilet paper for a family of 4 for 7 days. It just made for an extra trip to the grocery store. Not a big deal, but maybe should just change that in the description. We plan to go again!

Great Beach location

All was well. Nicely renovated. Great beach front location. Only one minor issue is the quality of the mattress’s. Much too soft and sheets do not fit.

Thank you and so happy that you enjoyed your stay. Mattresses are so tough and subjective. We typically get great feedback on that, but I know how it can be when you're used to a certain firmness at home. We'd love to welcome you back again any time
