"We came to Sanibel for a mother-daughter getaway, and this resort was perfect. The staff is friendly and extremely helpful, the grounds are well-maintained, access to the beach could not have been easier, and the pool was clean and provided relaxation. I can't say enough about how clean our room was on arrival, and throughout our stay. The food at the cafe and restaurant was good too! Highly recommend!"
"We stayed in cottage #5, the Hideaway. It was incredibly clean, well maintained, had plenty of extra items if we needed them, and the property was very centrally located to anything we may have needed on the Island."
"The property is beautiful. Great location. Close to everything. We walked to the beach. Watched the manatees and iguanas in the back yard. I don't remember seeing in the addbut their were bikes and beach buggies loaded and ready for borrow. There were a few issues with our stay but Break Away was great and very responsive to our issues."
"It was a short, solo vacay, and this studio was exactly what I needed. I appreciate the use of free bikes and washer and dryer. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. It’s a short walk to a public beach at the end of the road. Super convenient!"
