Clean, spacious, great location

This was a very comfortable rental for our stay in Sanibel. It gave us the room my family needed plus it was a very short walk to the beach. The management was very responsive to my messages. Check in and check out were easy. The listing is accurate and the property 100% met my expectations.

Property location is great, cute, cozy quiet with bikes and other concessions. Limited to none follow up on communication asks. In addition, the cottage I rented had just the basics. Should offer coffee and essentials, had to buy everything and left it behind.
