Serene Ocean View Escape at Sundial Resort

This third-floor ocean-view condo at the coveted Sundial Resort offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and coastal charm. Known for its prime beachfront location, inviting amenities, and easy access to Sanibel’s island paths, Sundial is one of the most desirable destinations on the island. Completely renovated in 2025, this private unit is designed to give couples a peaceful, memorable retreat.

The king bedroom features a plush mattress and fresh linens, while the adjoining bathroom boasts a spacious tiled shower. A comfortable sofa and chair in the living room provide space to unwind, and the fully equipped kitchen has everything needed to enjoy meals at home. The highlight is the oversized private lanai — a perfect spot for morning coffee, an evening drink, or simply soaking in the ocean breeze and view.

For days at the beach, we provide chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler, making it easy to relax along Sanibel’s shoreline. Guests also enjoy access to the heated pool featured in the listing photos, along with complimentary parking, free Wi-Fi, tennis courts, and pickleball courts. Sundial offers several on-site dining options, a tiki bar, and a convenience market just steps away. A coin-operated laundry facility is also conveniently located in the building.

Great Unit

The unit was perfect. Has a numerical key pad lock for both the condo unit and storage unit. It was very clean and comfy. Only 1 towel each person though. Unit had 2 nice beach chairs and umbrella that were good quality to withhold the wind.. and didn't get rusty. Also had a nice cooler to use and ice packs in the freezer. Steps to the pool and beach. Thanks for a great stay!

Wonderful week on Sanibel

We had a wonderful week staying at this beautifully furnished, clean, comfortable condo. The kitchen is well stocked with whatever you could possibly need including a washer and dryer. The view from the lanai is just gorgeous and a great place to have your morning coffee while watching the sun rise over the water. Everything you would need for the beach is located in the storage unit including umbrellas, a cooler, beach chairs and beach toys. We enjoyed many bike rides around the island with the bikes provided by the owners. Megan and Andrew have thought of everything to make their guests stay hassle free and enjoyable in every way. They are also very quick to reply to any inquiries. Would love to stay here again.

Wonderful Time

Not sure what I enjoy more having coffee on the lanai or enjoying late afternoon wine with crackers and cheese on the lanai with the great view of the ocean!! Unit has a washer and dryer and the kitchen has everything you need. In the locker are chairs and umbrella for the beach along with a wagon to use for bringing items to the beach Have stayed in the unit many years and this is a new owner who redecorated and upgraded some furniture. My cousin who joined me for some of the trip said the pull out sofa was very comfortable. Our only negative was the chairs with dinning room set look great but are very uncomfortable Was doing some remote work…and internet connection was great…could even work from the lanai Owner was very responsive

Just right for a couple

We had an enjoyable week , despite several cloudy days. The condo was very clean and decorated well. The large screen tv was ideal for viewing from the kitchen or living area. The kitchen had everything you would need . The storage locker was well stocked , but the beach chairs were the low style which are very difficult to get in and out of if you have any back issues. Overall, we loved the unit and attentiveness of the owners.

Great place, great location.

We’ve been to Sanibel a half dozen times and stayed at different places each visit. This condo is hands down the best we’ve been to. From the easy check in, to the storage area stocked with chairs, bikes, coolers, a beach wagon, etc. The condo itself is a one minute walk to the beach, extremely clean, wonderfully decorated, and has a perfectly stocked kitchen with laundry. Not to mention that the owners are in email contact with you before, during, and at the end of your trip. This place is definitely worth 5 stars!

Wonderful Condo

This was our second trip to Sanibel and the condo met our expectations. It was very clean and the decor was light and beachy putting you in the vacation mood the minute you walked through the door. It sits right on the edge of the beach so access was not a problem. I loved having the storage unit with beach chairs, umbrellas and nets to encourage our shelling adventures. We unfortunately got stuck with tropical storm Elsa for a couple of days but the owners were great in keeping us informed of the resorts updates which was greatly appreciated. I only have two recommendations which would be to offer more towels and wash cloths as well as toilet paper. There was only half a roll of toilet paper when we arrived. We had ran by the store for supplies prior to arriving so this made for an extra trip back since we didn’t know. Also, there were only 2 bath towels, 2 beach towels and 2 wash cloths available. Thankfully there is a washer and dryer available, so it just made for a few extra loads of laundry. So FYI for future guests, bring more washcloths or a shower loofah. Overall those recommendations did not hinder our stay in any way. We loved the condo, the location and would rent again in the future! We thank the owners for their communication and allowing us to vacation at their property!

Definitely Recommend

Here’s the good and the bad: Reasonably priced (for Sanibel) unit, perfect for one or two people. Nice view of the ocean from one side of the screened porch. Washer and dryer a plus. I wasn’t able to connect my IPad to the Smart tv, but the owner’s dad lives two doors away. He came right over and hooked us up with Chromecast. Really nice owners and dad; very accommodating and responsive. This small unit is so cluttered, big ugly paintings covered the walls, furniture is big and clunky, to the point of claustrophobic. BUT, and this is a big but, the owners just bought the unit; we were the first guests. At the end of our stay the owner let us know the unit is being redone this week with new paint and furniture. So, on the assumption that it will look so much better soon, I’m giving the unit 4 stars and the owners 5 stars!
