Nice Getaway

Enjoyed watching several species of birds and an Iguana on the screened in porch. It’s a two mile drive to J. N. Ding Darling Wildlife Reserve entrance, and about .25 mile to the beach parking lot. Nice quiet beach.

Island Trip

This property was just what we were looking for. It is opposite the Nature refuge and was quiet and peaceful. We were able to easily get to all the activities we wanted to. I did have to watch out for lizards as they are everywhere outside and I didn't want to step on one.

West End is very nice!

This property is a little dated but very nice and comfortable. Location is great and the screen porch is awesome. We enjoyed the breeze and watched the animals in the pond during the heat of the day. We will be back.

Our April stay

This was a nice quaint home, property and area to stay. We were lucky that there were always bikes available when we wanted to use them. I believe there were only 6 bikes and we used 4 at a time during our stay. The bikes made it easy to get to the ocean with our beach supplies. We also used the bikes to explore the area. The house was very nice and clean. Having the washer and dryer there was wonderful too! The couch was broken in the middle which we told management about. No one fixed it while we were there so my husband rigged it in the middle. The lock on the bedroom door, which goes to the outside, needed to be fixed and maintenance came the next day to fix it. The bedroom did get a little warm at night because you can’t turn the A/C under 72degrees. Things that I would bring or would help for our next visit; tupperware, so we can take food/snacks to stay at the ocean all day, maybe boogie boards are a football to throw around at the beach. The house came with beach chairs, noodles, umbrella, and a cooler which helped during the beautiful hot ocean days! The back patio made for a wonderful quiet place to get outside and still private enough by the backyard pond.

It’s a good location and the unit is in decent shape. However, the sleeping arrangements are horrible. The bed in the bedroom is way too small for 2 adults (looks like a small twin bed) and the sofa is totally inadequate for a teenager (too small and it’s broken, the cushions won’t hold in place).

Location, location! The property was everything we hoped for: a short walk to a very private beach, close to the outstanding Wildlife Refuge, within a short drive to Sanibel and Captiva restaurants.

Paradise with a soft bed

We had an amazing stay at West End Paradise. Our unit was perfectly quiet and had lots of Florida charm. The local beach is practically empty. We biked all over the island on the provided bikes. Wow! So great, almost. I need a firm bed for a good night's sleep. I hope the owner updates the mattress but, until this is done, the unit is difficult to recommend wholeheartedly. Also, the kitchen area is very small with little workspace. There are minimal utensils and we had difficulty dining in. Luckily, everything else was great. Biking through Ding Darling, toasting the sunset on an empty beach, chatting with friendly neighbors. What more could we ask for, aside from a new mattress and a better equipped kitchen?

Serene Sanibel

This property is perfect for someone who wants to enjoy the beach and town without feeling like you are in a tourist area. The location of the home requires you to drive to most places on the island, but you can easily bike to anywhere. The nature preserve is a great place to bike to as well. It is only a few minutes walk to the beach from the house. The beach is almost all to yourself here. The house has everything you need to get you started on your vacation. The views from the back porch area are great. It was perfect on the day it rained and we couldn’t be outside. Eating out is nice, but we appreciated having a kitchen so that we could make our own meals too. Bailey’s store makes it easy to pick up prepared meals as well. We had a wonderful time here and hope that in the future we can perhaps rent a few adjoining units for a family get together.
