Heather is very responsive to any questions or needs. Communicating was easy, arrival was effortless, the home is fresh, well appointed, nicely decorated and comfortable. A number of restaurants and shops are very close by, and being an island, nothing is that far. My wife and I had a great stay. We loved the Sanibel beaches!

Pleasant experience

We enjoyed our stay in this quiet neighborhood. It's conveniently located a short distance from many of the beaches and stores. We rented bikes and rode them daily along the numerous trails and back roads and to beaches. Our stay was delightful!

Beautiful home in great location

We were blown away by Heather's home! It was incredibly clean and modern and was the perfect place to relax and grill in the evening after a day at the beach. We were able to walk to a nearby yoga studio and a smaller beach from the place. She had all of the beach supplies we needed and was incredibly responsive for any issues. We would highly recommend staying here!

Wonderful Experience

I would definitely recommend this house to anyone who is staying in the area. It was extremely clean and the owners have thought of everything that you may forget from sunscreen to bug spray to coffee and creamer. Quite neighborhood, and just a short drive to the beaches. I hope to return some day.

Awesome Place

Great location to enjoy the bay or the Gulf. Short bike ride for food, fun, or ice cream. Awesome quiet neighborhood. Nice storage area for bikes, floats, and fishing gear. Great place to clean shells, watch birds from the back porch, or play Cornhole. House had everything available, very clean, awesome master shower, and owner was very informative. Thanks for the stay.

Will return

This was our first time back to Sanibel since Ian, the house was great, and very thoughtfully stocked. The house was nicely done and the kitchen/living area was excellent, having a huge sliding wall on the front was awesome for cool nights to let the breeze blow through the house.
