We love Breakers West and have stayed there in different units a number of times. C3 is a great unit with very responsive hosts. It has been beautifully updated, but still shows its age, as most of them do. Access to the rooftop area is awesome! I never even knew that was there before! If you typically stay at Vrbo locations, you should note that this one does NOT save leftover kitchen items e.g. coffee, sugar, coffee filters, spices, as you may be accustomed to. However, the welcome get-started boxes are very helpful with basic kitchen cleaning needs as well as toiletries in the bathrooms. Overall, a great place to stay!

We couldn’t be happier! The Breakers West is an up-to-date condo that is clean, with immaculate grounds, and beach access within sight. Everything was exactly as described. I emailed a few questions before our arrival date and VRBO responded quickly. We will be using VRBO again!

Awesome stay we love Sanibel. Awesome setting. Only bad thing waa the ceiling fan cord in the master bed room that had been cut and put back together with electrical tape. I showed it to the gentle man when he replaced the battery in the fan remote but it wasnt fixed. Really not safe a kid could pull it apart. But everything else was awesome.

Good location
Unit spacious, clean and well stocked kitchen. On the beach which was not crowded. Great shelling.However the king bed mattress too soft very uncomfortable. Booked this unit for king bed but couldn't use it. Had to sleep in queen bed. Also all towels and sheets strong perfume scent which was terrible! Never stayed anywhere that had scented tiwels and sheets. Not good for people with allergies.Hopefully this place will change to unscented detergent. A
