Was not able to make it due to winter storm that covered most of the country with ice and snow. Tried to see if they would swap dates as this storm was all over the news, host was unwilling so we lost our money as we could not get there. Was looking forward to it as we had stayed here about 20 years ago. Was trip for our anniversary.

The condo was beautiful, updated, clean, and very cozy. The bed in the master was great! We loved the canal in the back, we saw several manatees. It is pretty good walk to get to the beach access, but it’s a straight, flat walk so it’s not too bad.

Vacation

The stay was an excellent experience! Its a nice property located close to the beach. There is a canal in the backyard so we had the joy of seeing some manatees. Being that it is a dog friendly place it allowed us the joy of taking our dogs with on vacation. The place was nicely decorated and spacious. I'd recommend others bring a blanket if cold easily as there was only one extra in the rental. There were also no oven mitts when we stayed which was slightly inconvenient for couple times we used the oven. When we did need to reach out to the management company the person was helpful. I have already shared the good experience we had at this rental with others and would definitely stay again.

Lighthouse Stay

We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was excellent. Great location and very nice townhouse. We live in southeast Florida and try to go to Sanibel at least once a year. It’s a perfect getaway for us. Hopefully we will be able to reserve the lighthouse for future trips.

Great location and place to stay. Walking distance to beach. Very clean. Only complaints are no soap in 1/2 bath on first floor, poor water pressure upstairs shower, tub in full bath with some mildew/mold in seam (needs fresh caulk) & living room furniture fabric rough/scratchy. Had beach chairs (4), umbrella and styrofoam cooler for use—which was great! And outside hose for rinsing off sand was also very convenient.

Nice place to stay

I booked this condo for a girls trip. They place was easy to get to and sits on the water in a channel. While we didn't see much wildlife in the channel it was still nice sitting out on the screened patio by the water. Our neighbors had an issue with their AC and thought we might have too - when looking the AC thermostat was on a temporary hold. Once we figured that out we fine. Management was very attentive to the situation and wanted to rectify the situation. There was a bit of confusion on what to do with trash, not realizing that there was a note on the garage by the door you would use to go in, indicating trash was in there. Nothing indicated that in any of my paperwork. I would also recommend that you bring your own hand soap as there was only one very small bar in the main bathroom and nothing in the half bath. But those things were certainly not deal breakers for us.

We like it so much it’s our go-to on Sanibel

Close to the ocean and on a quiet dead-end street. It sits on the canal where you can watch manatees. We brought our own coffee pot as it has a Keurig and we drink lots of coffee.

Perfect choice

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, will definitely be back. While amazed at the recovery efforts on Sanibel and Captiva Islands, there is still ways to go. Did not influence the enjoyment of our stay in The Lighthouse at all, everything is new. We used the onsite bicycles and walks to the beach and shopped locally. Was pretty sad to pack up and leave, so much more we wanted to do.
