It felt cozy and had everything we needed for a family of 8\. We really appreciated the large dining table, cookware and utensils that were available for us to use. It was our 1st time to Sanibel and location was perfect for us. We were pleasantly surprised with the new pool and felt welcome to take in the beautiful views from the veranda on the top floor of the condos. ##### Heather P.

We have stayed at the Lighthouse end, near Blind Pass, and many places in between. Not only was this location ideal, but the home exceeded our expectations. This home was extremely clean, had a well stocked kitchen, and the layout was perfect for our family. We loved the beautiful pool area located directly behind the home as well. We would highly recommend staying here! ##### Sue K. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen B. 28 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Nice House This house was nice and comfortable for the 7 adults in our group. The only negative was that the next guest tried to check-in a day and half early while we were still there. They tried to enter the house, then the management cleaning staff came knocking (more than a day early) to see when we would be vacating the property. This made us feel pressure to get out even though we still had more than a full day left, so our last day was not too enjoyable ##### Karen B. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ruth P., Massachusetts 26 Mar 2018 #### Great house! We stayed in the Sandy Bend house for a week over February vacation. We are two couples and 3 kids and the house was a great size. The entire house has recently been updated so everything is new and nicely appointed. With two dining tables and an ample living room we had plenty of space to spread out. We like to cook and the kitchen (also recently updated) had everything we needed. The bedrooms and bathrooms were lovely and very comfortable. The master bedroom bed was a bit soft but certainly not a deal breaker. The linens and towels were all soft and comfortable. The ceiling fans on the first floor made in unnecessary to use the downstairs central air and, while the upstairs gets pretty hot, it has it's own central air system and thermostat. It's hard to see in the photos but the house is just behind the beach front condo building so getting to the beach is just a short walk. Also, you are allowed to take the lounge chairs set in front of the condo building to the beach which is a nice perk if you prefer a chair. We were so happy with the house that we've already rented it for next February! ##### Ruth P. Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Sheri T. 24 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location #### Perfect location - perfect weather Property is located away from the busy end of the island. Water in the front (gulf) and water in the back (pool). Quiet 9-unit condo in front (between house and beach) but otherwise great. Some fix-up is needed in the upper floor - bathroom new but 3 small bedrooms need work. Also, AC on the upper level is loud and very cold in one bedroom. Our family enjoyed the week. ##### Sheri T. Stayed 8 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### karen h. 11 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Best Shelling and Beach Access What a fantastic little cottage adjacent to the beach! Our family of 6 stayed for 2 weeks in January. Our party included 2 teens, an 8 year old and my 82 year old father. We loved our stay. The grounds were beautiful with numerous flowering hibiscus and bougainvillea. The pool was warm and clean and so accessible from the back door of the cottage. We chatted with several of the owners who live in the beachside unit. They were very friendly and and helpful sharing local information. The best part was the location, just steps from the beach. We shelled after a few storms and found loads of fantastic shells. As this was our 5th visit to Sanibel we've become fairly picky in what we collect, but we still ended up packing a lot of shells home including: large lightening whelks, alphabet cones, large shark's eyes, lace and apple murex, horse conchs, tulips, olives, fig whelks, pear whelks, drills, nutmegs, moonshells, urchins... It was nuts. The best shelling was of course after the storms but we also did well wading in the shallows at low tide. So.much.fun! Our kids don't ask for Disney, they'd much rather come to Sanibel and this was our favorite vacation of the 5 trips. We also rented bikes and rode all over the island. Joey's ice cream was delish as was Cips and the Sanibel Cafe for breakfast. We enjoyed the birding at Ding Darling, Bailey Tract and Bailey Homestead (lots of iguanas too). I'd come back tomorrow if I could! My only suggestions for improvement are replacing the very soft mattresses. Also check in instructions were inaccurate. The key pad is electronic and is located right on the front door. Once you touch the top of the keypad, it will light up and you enter your code. The code is used as your key. There is NO physical key (despite what the check-in instructions indicated). But other than that the kitchen was well-equipped and even included a slow cooker and panini grill. ##### karen h.

This house was perfect for our family of 8 - our four kids and spouses of our two oldest. The location is fantastic, with the beach 100 steps away, lounge chairs available for the beach and a pool right behind the house. The house was very clean when we arrived. There is plenty of room for family meals and a good-sized kitchen with modern appliances. The master bedroom suite is very roomy. Water pressure and hot water was not a problem for 8 people taking showers. Highly recommended - we will book this house again next trip to Sanibel! ##### Barry J.

We had the four bedroom house. It well met our needs. It was also nice to have the new swimming pool for those times when we are tired of laying out on the beach. ##### Steve B. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 6 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Charming beach house We stayed a week at this old Florida house and loved the cozy feel as well as access to the lovely beach. The master suite on the first floor is very spacious with large remodeled bathroom including washer. And dryer. Kitchen has lots of dishes, pots and pans. No plastic storage containers for leftovers. Be sure to bring anything for cooking, such as condiments, spices, plastic wrap, foil. A small amount of dishwasher and liquid detergent provided as well as a few trash bags and some to. Lots of seating for dining. Well supplied with beach supplies, chairs, toys, etc. we had one problem with heat malfunctioning but managers dealt with it quickly and it was fixed within a few hours. One annoyance was the check in and out procedures we were emailed. These are outdated and incorrect, referring to non existent keys in a lock box. Could be very easily remedied. There is a 3 story apartment bldg between the house and the beach, but we had access to the upstairs deck which was great for watching the sunset! A great place. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Ann C. 2 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Enjoyable Really enjoyed ##### Mary Ann C.

We loved the gorgeous new pool and we used the tennis court daily. A resort feel with these amenities- yet in our own space. Was just perfect! We will be back. ##### Kerry W.

We immediate rebooked for another stay at Sandy Bend. Thank you for an amazing and lovely experience. ##### Luisa F.

Location was perfect with easy access via bike to restaurants and stores. PROS: Short walk to beach Chairs available at condo just in front of house Lots of space inside Screened in porch Bike paths well kept and easy to navigate Well stocked kitchen CONS: Three bedrooms upstairs with one bath Full bath downstairs (we had three couples so one used downstairs bath) Master bathroom does not have a door Hot upstairs Washer and dryer in master bath. We stayed a week and had a great time. Shells everywhere. Bring bug spray...don't need it all the time but when the wind stops, they come out quick and are relentless. Would definitely stay again. Hope this helps! ##### Crystal M.

All the extra beach toys (chairs, umbrella, buckets, scoops, etc.) were a HUGE help to thoroughly enjoying the sand, waves and shells. The kitchen is completely fully stocked with every appliance we could need. Beds were comfy. Downstairs was plenty comfortable, but the upstairs got a little stuffy at night. There was one box fan in the closet that was a blessing. The big showers were great. Plenty of extras. Thank you!! ##### Alicia C.

Our only complaint was that the cleaners were not ready for us to get in at 4:00pm but we went down to the beach and could get in around 4:45\. Place was pretty clean and had lots of kitchen gadgets. The beds upstairs are full sized, not Queen. We loved the location on the island and the beach was perfect for us! ##### Amy H.

There are 4 separate bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms. It is newly decorated and very well appointed. The kitchen is large and well stocked with everything needed for meal prep. It is only steps to a beautiful beach and has ample parking. The rental property staff were helpful and accommodating, they made every effort to make our stay comfortable and successful. The house and grounds are clean and well kept. The property is very conveniently situated so there is easy access to most anyplace you might want to go on Sanibel. I highly recommend this property. ##### Shelley G.

The no see um and red tide were out of control. There was no notice by owners to be prepared for this!! ##### Cheryl T. ---
