Exceptional

This is a wonderful unit with a great view, close to the beach, exceptionally clean,updated furnishings, great location to everything, nice screened in lanai.
The only drawback was having to pick up/drop off key cards for the unit at an office, would prefer keyless entry at any beach unit.

Million dollar view!
The condo has a fabulous view of the Gulf. Loved sitting on the lanai eating breakfast and soaking in the view. Beautifully decorated condo, comfortable beds and furniture. Well stocked kitchen and beach supplies. Only downside was 42 stairs to get to the condo - no elevator, and the noseums are bad on Sanibel right now. Otherwise, LOVED the place!

Great location!
We loved this condo. Not only does the whole complex have a great location on Sanibel, we think this is one of the best units on the property. Awesome view and convenient walk to the beach and the pool. One of the closest buildings to the ocean, so you’re not staring at other buildings. We would love to stay here again!

Beautiful oceanfront view
We enjoyed staying on this property. The view was beautiful.The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for cooking meals.The master shower was very spacious. The master bed was very comfy.The hall bathroom ceiling vent was dusty & needed to be cleaned. We enjoyed the convenience of the ice, beach chairs & bikes that were provided. The unit did not have an elevator but we survived.

Terrific location.
Extremely well located, with proximity to pool, beach and amenities. Unit appears to be heavily used (not surprising given the quality of location and views), might well benefit from some light upgrades in the near future.
