Perfect. Just Perfect

This condo is beautiful, spacious, comfortable, and ideally located. With the elevator right at the parking space, it is easy to move in. With a fully stocked beach closet with chairs, umbrellas, and other beach/pool items, we were able to enjoy the beach immediately upon arrival. We spent a lot of time on the lanai and enjoyed the views, the breeze, and the sunsets. We are looking forward to booking again!

Beach week

We stay at Sundial every summer for our family reunion. We have 9 families that rent condos there to get together from several states. This condo was very clean and nicely furnished. We eat out most of the week so I’m not sure how well equipped the kitchen is for cooking big meals but it was very adequate for the amount of cooking that we did.

Great Location Near the Beach

First impression was that this building was constructed to withstand some serious high winds and heavy rainfall. And during the week Hurricane Elsa developed and gave us a taste of the impact from a Cat 1 hurricane but we felt totally safe and secure in our lodging as we watch the system pass through out in the Gulf of Mexico. We were a party of five, four adults and one youth, and had ample room to spread out and enjoy our stay. The kitchen wasn't huge but adequate for the few meals we actually prepared during our weeklong stay which were mostly breakfasts and a couple of suppers. Other than that, the island is filled with a variety of restaurants to meet almost any taste for good home cooked meals. The beach is a short walk from the condo; about the length of a football field but on a well maintained pathway. We had a great time and are already making plans to return to the same spot next year, if it is still available.

Family/Friends Spring Break

We LOVE Sanibel. We have a lot of families that come to Sundial for Spring Break and this is the condo to stay! We had teens with us and it was perfectly spaced for everyone. Plenty of towels, beach chairs, beds, pools, and more. We will rent this condo again and definitely recommend. We’ve been coming for many years and this unit was by far the best one we’ve stayed in. Thanks for having us!!! #MemoriesMade

Beautiful ocean view condo that fit 5

Loved this place, it’s hard to find a 3-bedroom property on Sanibel but this comfortably fit our family, 1 adult couple, separate adult and 2 kids. The kids loved the Den with two twin beds. Cute property nicely maintained with pretty views of the ocean and beach.

Love Sanibel

I love the Sundial location and have stayed here many times. This condo is spacious and has the storage downstairs with beach items and the parking spot which is great. The condo was pretty dirty when we got there and most of the pots/pans and dishes had stuck on old food on them. If they could do something about the wifi (crazy slow- we had to go to a local business with free wifi to actually use the internet) and gave this place a good scrubbing, it could be nice.

Sensational Sanibel

We love Sundial East. Unit Q-401 is exactly as advertised online. Great view of the gulf. Conveniently located near the elevator. The storage unit had a beach cart, beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and other small beach toys. It was wonderful to have a washer and dryer I. The unit. Our only issue was with the very slow WiFi connection. We would definitely book this location again.

Nice Oceanfront on Sanibel

Located in the Sundial complex. The unit layout and furniture worked very well with two bedrooms and another space that can be closed off as a third bedroom, which would work well for kids/teens and even my adult son's gaming setup. Nice that they provided beach chairs and umbrellas. Beach view was better than expected given it is towards the back of the building, but it was good. Only withholding one star for slow WIFI. Otherwise, no reservations to rent it again.

Our first time on the island, we will return😍

When we arrived the elevator was down for repairs, waiting on a part. Was finally fixed on Monday but was down again by Friday. So arrival and departure was not pleasant. One set of keys did not work so had to pick up another set. Then the commode in the hall bathroom broke on 7/4. Called and was told no maintenance on duty until the next day but after a little (a lot) of persuading a plumber was called and we were back to two bathrooms. Why does this resort not have maintenance on call 24/7? Not sure we will stay at Sundial again🤔

Perfection in Sanibel!

This was our first time in Sanibel and we loved every second. This condo was perfect for our family of 8. The condo was clean and comfortable. It was steps away from the beach and had all of the amenities needed to make it our home away from home for the week. The pool was great as were the grounds-they were kept perfectly. We found the beds comfortable after long days of exploring Sanibel. There were plenty of bike racks for all of our bikes and the covered parking came in handy on numerous occasions. The elevator did break for the second part of the trip which wasn’t a big deal to us but was a little cumbersome for my parents. This unit had a locker with beach chairs and umbrellas and several beach toys my kids enjoyed using. We will definitely be back!
