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."
