Sanibel Island 1BR Walk to Beach - Colony Inn 05

10/10 Excellent

"Clean updated room. Location was great. Property was close to the beach and the pool was lovely. We will definitely be back."

Beachfront Condo + Heated Pool, Hot Tub, Tennis + Walk to Dining

10/10 Excellent

"We loved Jill's condo! The location was excellent. Short walk over the boardwalk to the beach was lovely. Water station to rinse off sandy feet and beach items was so handy too. The newly renovated community pool was outstanding. Lots of pool items to use from floats to noodles...we were so thankful to have access to them because we didn't bring our own since we flew down. The condo was great and fit our family of 5. The kitchen was all we needed for a week stay and many meals at the condo. The screened in balcony had a beautiful view of the ocean and pool and the screen kept out the pesky no-see-um flies. There was also a closet filled with beach chairs, beach umbrellas, and beach toys. Beach towels and bath towels were also included. So wonderful to have these! Thank you!! :)"

Seahorse Cottages on Sanibel - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Our cottage was great! It was clean, and the bed was comfortable. It was nice to have porch areas out front and back and it was an easy walk to the beach and restaurant/ice cream shop. It was also nice to have the small pool to cool off in. Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back to Sanibel!"
