10/10 Excellent
"Lots of beach front to enjoy shelling … without paying hefty parking lot prices elsewhere in Sanibel. The restaurant connected to the hotel had excellent food and was convenient … ordered for eating in our room once as well… and you could order food delivered to the pool."

Rare Walkout Condo On Sanibel Beach

8/10 Good
"The condo was nice and clean and location was great. Our only complaint was that it smelled so strongly of mildew that we could smell it on ourselves after leaving the unit. After only three nights, we got home and had to wash all our clothes because everything in our bags smelled like mildew. Bummer."

Welcoming 2-bedroom 2-bathroom condo in a secluded section of Sanibel Island

8/10 Good
"My wife and I enjoyed the condo. It is really close to a very nice beach.(Bowman’s). Lots of nice shells there. Amble is kind of a niche place. Great for an older couple like my wife and I that love to look for shells. If there is a problem, the parking spot is a long ways from the condo. Then you have steps. Overall we really enjoyed the place. Being there in the off season was great. Wasn’t many people there. Thanks."

"The condo had everything we needed to make the most of a lovely long weekend with our family of five (we brought a pack and play)! The walk to the beach was easy enough for our small kids. The host was helpful and responsive when we forgot something in the unit after check-out. Can’t wait to come back to Sanibel!"

"This little stay was full of packed punches and so quiet and serene! We kayaked & saw manatees in the channels. The golf cart was amazing and we took it for a drive in the neighborhood sightseeing all of the houses. At night, taking a dip in the pool was an added bonus. Very nice and clean home with everything you could ask for!"
