Amazing place to stay
Have wanted to visit Sanibel for long time & this was the perfect place to stay. Had everything we needed & a great location - close to the beach. Was able to see manatees at the end of the garden - which was amazing. Would recommend to anyone.

Hermosa casa en Sanibel
Hermosa casa, muy amplia y comoda. Esta completamente equipada y todo funciona a la perfeccion. Incluso hay sillas de playa y una sombrilla. La ubicacion es excelente, muy cerca de la playa a la que se puede ir caminando. Totalmente recomendable!!!

Cancelled!!
I find it quite insulting that I’ve been asked to review my stay when our accommodation was cancelled due to the hurricane with absolutely no offer of alternative accommodation or any refund. Bearing in mind we were due to travel only about a month after the storm this left us high and dry! 100% our money gone and nowhere to stay! Communication has been appalling.

Lovely place - Close to Beach
Wonderful place to stay and enjoy the 5 -10 minute walk to the lovely beach. Went early to the beach and were lucky to see Dolphins near the shore line. Great start to a great vacation and would come back to stay here when back in the area.

Sweet Sanibel Vacation Spot
This property was the perfect type of beach vacation. Access to the beach is right up the road. They have beach towels available for you, wagons, umbrellas, everything you need for a low key Sanibel vacation. The property managers were very easy to deal with and they really go out of their way to make sure your vacation is perfect. Very pet friendly, but the cottage does not reflect that it is pet friendly. Very clean, the beds were cozy and kitchen was stocked with everything you need to cook a meal at home. We will be going back!

Live like a local
Hidden gem in Sanibel. While its not on the beach and nor does it have 5 star on property amenities it does allow you to live like a local. No need to circle the condo parking lot for a space or carry your kids and bags up and down 3 flights of stairs. Two patios, quiet neighborhood and short walk to the beach makes this an easy place to stay in San/Cap as a local.

Five stars
This was an important trip. My girls had been here with their dad but wanted to show me around and this was our first solo trip together. We rode bikes, we went to baileys, ate great food and watched the sunrise on the beach. Fabulous time and accommodations!

Enjoyed Sanibel
Location was great! Easy walk to the beach, and canal out back was enjoyable where we saw a manatee and a dolphin. Unit was comfortable and well appointed. Host was very responsive to questions. Easy drive to local attractions, restaurants, and other amenities. Great visit!

Wonderful location in Sanibel
This was our first trip to Sanibel. We loved this place! Location is a five minute walk to beach, and a five minute drive to sights and restaurants. Would definitely recommend. Property was as described.

Beautiful location close to beach
It was a beautiful location close to the beach! They were dredging the canal so unfortunately we weren’t able to see any manatees but the property itself is beautiful and like a 3 minute walk to the beach. I would definitely stay here again. They were even able to check us in early when we asked! Thanks so much!

Comfortable and lovely setting
Overall and with the big elements, this was an excellent rental. It was spacious with comfortable furniture and bed. Two screened porches faced the waterway and a large and truly lovely deck was available to the small complex. 2 gas grills were available, as well as bikes and beach equipment. It was an easy and short walk out to the beach. My only issues was that the condo needed some maintenance and some of the things that had been done were done sloppily. There was a hole in the drywall behind the bathroom door. Someone had taken down the towel bar to put up hooks and patched but not painted one of the remaining brackets, the fan in the bedroom isn't wired correctly so it goes off when you turn off the lights. The pop-up drain in the bathroom sink doesn't pop up any more and is full of gunk and doesn't drain well. Cleaners have used something that has corroded the faucets and handles on the sink and they have a white residue on them that is pretty noticeable with the dark metal of the hardware. All these things are easily fixed with a little attention to detail. The problems seemed a contrast to the overal quality of the rental.

Short weekend visit to Sanibel Is- the weather made the stay perfect but accommodations were great.
Watched the manatees out back and enjoyed the view over the canal. 5 min easy walk to beach. Comfortable beds and very clean place.

This is a little gem of a place and retreat. Very nostalgic as most places are given the building timeframe. Close to everything in sanibel and comfy! We would stay here again!

Everything you need!
We loved our stay in Sanibel. The property had everything we needed. We used the bikes, fishing rod, beach toys and wagon just to name a few. We saw manatees in the back canal, so much fun to watch. We only had one garbage bag but we used bags from grocery shopping on our way in. There were beach towels to use, we opened one and it had a live cockroach in it. The property was very clean, so we didn’t think much of it. Overall, the property was great and if we return to Sanibel we would stay again.

We took a long weekend with our kids to relax and this place was perfect! One block to the beautiful beach! They had bikes, chairs, umbrellas, floats and footballs available for us to use. The condo was cute and super clean! I would highly recommend this place and I hope to book there again!

Perfect condo in Sanibel
This was a wonderful location and a very nice place to stay. Clean and had everything that we needed. Very near the beach although we preferred going to Bowman's beach. We ate at The Island Cow, Mudbugs and The fish house all were very good. We would return again very enjoyable vacation and the weather was awesome.

Girls Trip
Overall we had a great experience at the Driftwood property. There was many convenient items that made our beach trips very easy (wagons, beach chairs and umbrellas). The water heater handled 6 women showering one after the other! This was unexpected. There were also many kitchen items on property to help with cooking our own meals. We would recommend this site to others.

The good, bad and the ugly
Spacious property that was newly carpeted, painted and decorated...easy walk to the beach...the good. Lot next door used by municipal paving and construction crews who backed in and out all night throughout stay. The canal behind the property is a swampy water mess...looks cemetery different on the filter enhanced photo, the hot tub that was a prominent fixture on the ad is broken, the silverware looked like it went through a grinder a few times, door locks and faucet handles/faucets are generally either broken or in disrepair - shower handle swivels 360....spent almost as much time trying to turn off water as taking shower, no bake pan or cutting board(smaller stuff)...etc...ugly...management crew that just did not get it. Got the door locks repaired at end of day 2, but rest of stuff was just left as is. Was asked by one....why could u not use oven? Said ...there is no baking pan. It was hard to heat anything in the oven like egg rolls and other stuff we had from store.

Hi Karen, Thank you for the review. We are so apologetic for the dissatisfaction you felt toward your stay, we loved talking with you several times a day.. Much of what you mentioned such as the canal is incredibly enjoyable for our guests especially when the manatee swim by! The small stuff as mentioned has been tended to. We wish you the very best.

Week stay
Kitchen supplies could use some updating (the can opener was rusted shut, etc) also the noise, the humming from the air units or whatever it was, when in the bedrooms was loud at night when trying to sleep. Other than that, it was a great location! Comfortable place and nice to have a mango tree in the back yard. good supply of beach chairs, umbrellas & bikes to use. Would definitely recommend.
