Island Beach Club, Top Floor, West-Facing, End Unit Good news: Hurricane rebuilding is nearly complete. We accepting reservations starting mid 2026! OUTSTANDING VIEWS If you're looking for unimpeded, sweeping beach views with ultimate privacy, Island Beach Club P6D is for you. You just can't get more 'beach front' and still be inside. Our top floor, west-end corner unit is built closer to the beach than neighboring buildings, so views are superb. \*\*\*\*Special Design Features enhance the view\*\*\*\* Most condo complexes with water frontage have long rectangular floor plans with the narrow side facing the prime view. This allows the developer maximum number of prime view units but creates a boxcar-like feel. Island Beach Club units are nearly square with floor-to-ceiling window-walls. In "D" Building, those window walls provide a breathtaking view of the water. \*\*\*\*Unique features of P6D\*\*\* Because it's located on the top floor, there is maximum privacy and quiet. A "reversed floor plan," unique to only 2 other units at Island Beach Club provides especially welcome privacy and quiet. No one walks by your front door unless they are coming to visit you. From November through February, we see the sun rise and set from the lanai. The effect is magic and will stay with you long after your vacation is over. Take a look at our VIDEO to get an even better feel for this special place. QUALITY FURNISHINGS Our 2 bedroom, 2 bath, top floor, west-end corner unit is very well equipped: High speed internet, floor to ceiling windows (with electric shades) that bring the views into your living room, full-size washer & dryer, granite counters in a gourmet kitchen, excellent quality knives and an electric knife sharpener to keep them sharp. There is filtered water on the refrigerator door and at the kitchen sink so you don't need to bring bottled water. Also a blender and a coffee grinder to grind your beans. If the views don't keep you occupied, you'll find games and puzzles plus 3 smart flat screen TV's, and a DVR. We subscribe to a Comcast cable TV package with a large channel selection. There is also a CD player with about 40 CDs in our library. Master bedroom has a king bed. Two twin beds in the guest bedroom. We intentionally do not have a pull-out bed in the living room, so maximum occupancy is four. NICE "OFFICE" Need some office time--with a gorgeous Gulf-view? There's a convenient desk in the master bedroom with power outlets, USB ports and slide-out shelf for your laptop, . A desktop phone has speakerphone and auto redial. Our high speed dedicated WiFi provides excellent internet access. There's even a wireless HP color printer with copy/scan/fax capability. BEACH EQUIPMENT Our storage closet in the parking garage has beach chairs, loungers, umbrella, floats and assorted beach toys. We provide beach towels in our linen closet. There is a convenient elevator. EXCEPTIONAL PRIVACY Unlike most units at Island Beach Club, ours has a reversed floor plan -- no neighboring units can see into the living room or lanai. Also, no one passes your front door unless they are coming to see you. Electric shades in the living room and master bedroom windows keep light off the beach at night or in the unlikely event you want even more privacy. ABOUT PRICE We have found--from years of renting vacation properties--that price-concern is highest before you see what you've rented. Afterwards, you either spend time enjoying the property or regretting its shortcomings that produced the lower price. Our rates reflect the quality of Island Beach Club P6D. You can find slightly (and considerably) lower prices but they come with large reductions in quality: of view, location, furnishings, sound of the waves and attention to maintenance. If you find an open week and book with us, we believe you'll be delighted with the perks of a top floor, west-end unit, with its unequaled privacy. The decision is best made by comparing the actual view, furnishings and location of the units you're considering. Beware of properties that lead off with uninspiring pictures. Our view is what you're probably wishing for and we show it proudly. WE PAY ATTENTION We won't fully agree to rent to you until we have personally spoken by phone to assure we are both a mutual good fit. VRBO makes this difficult by withholding guest phone numbers from owners until a booking occurs. We try to call ASAP after you book and your phone number becomes visible. When you arrive, we try to check in by phone to assure everything is just right. Our local property manager is available 24/7 to handle any issues. And we promise quick action if needed. IDEAL LOCATION Island Beach Club is ideally situated on prestigious West Gulf Drive, about 1.2 miles from Jerry's Grocery Store (Bailey's is closed due to Hurricane Ian damage) many good restaurants and shopping -- yet avoiding the heaviest traffic. It is also ideally situated on the beach -- well removed from the public access points. AMENITIES Dedicated WiFi just for this unit provides high speed Internet access. The beach is just steps away. We provide beach towels, chairs, umbrella and loungers. There is a convenient elevator, covered parking and a well furnished, updated kitchen. Three large, flat screen, very smart TVs (OLED/QLED) serve living room and both bedrooms. A DVR serves the living room and master bedroom. Island Beach Club's large, heated pool was destroyed by Hurricane Ian and should be rebuilt before 2026. \* 7 night minimum stay\* IMPORTANT CAUTIONS: Obviously, we love our magic place and hope you will too! Assuring you find the vacation you want is very important to us. We make a concerted effort to assure our condo is a good match you. We don't want to disappoint anyone. Here are what we consider our biggest drawbacks: 1\. SMALL UNIT This condo is 1,195 sq ft -- large enough to accommodate no more than 4 occupants, in our opinion. Many other Island Beach Club units permit 6 occupants -- we do not. 2\. TINY MASTER BATHROOM Island Beach Club was built in 1976 and bathroom standards have evolved markedly since then. There is a single sink and much less room than typically offered today. 3\. NOT A PARTY PLACE Neither Sanibel, nor our unit are appropriate or satisfying for spring-break-type party people. The town has few bars and nightlife generally ends by 9-10pm. If you're looking for more action, you would be happier with Ft. Myers Beach. Sanibel is for nature lovers, readers and sea shell collectors, for bicycle riding on protected bike paths, for birding enthusiasts, sun lovers, kayakers/canoeists, beach walkers and those who appreciate low-rise vs high-rise buildings. 4\. SUMMER NO-SEE-UMS These tiny, biting bugs occur more frequently in summer months and can chase you off the beach late in the day. Not much of a problem during the day, they can even intrude through the screens on the lanai at dusk. They do not come inside the unit in our experience -- probably because the slider doors are mostly closed in summer for air conditioning. Our laundry room usually has lots of bug sprays left behind by departing guests. 5\. RED TIDE An occurrence of red tide in July 2018 created a significant fish-kill. Sanibel, to its great credit, took strong clean-up action and the beach is being kept very clean. But the red tide algae are sometimes present in our waters. Fran and I still enjoy our magic condo as much as ever--the views are still magnificent--but you should check the red tide status independently to make an informed decision. We are happy to provide information sources. 6\. NO KID-SIZE SINKS & NO BATHTUB Both bathrooms have been remodeled with adult-height sinks and shower stalls. There is no bathtub. 7\. NO WINTER AVAILABILITY This magic place is our primary residence approximately Oct 15-May 15 each year. It is only available for rent from May-Oct. We have no plans to change this lifestyle. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Fenced private pool - Heated pool - Outdoor pool ### Internet - Available in the condo: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Music library - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Computer monitor - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Lift - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Golf - Heated pool - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,195 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Contactless check-in and check-out are available Minimum check-in age - 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM Contactless check-out ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Rules Communication between you and us is essential since Sanibel is at risk from severe weather events.
