Sep 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### August in Sanibel The property is better than it appears in pictures. In addition, it is more than sufficiently well supplied and not only in the kitchen. We would have appreciated if we had known beforehand that there were 5 bicycles available, 3 beach coolers, a beach cart to take the stuff to the beach, beach chairs and even beach toys. We did not use these as we brought our bikes, beach cart, beach chairs and umbrellas but it would have saved expense and room. It is also not advertised that the house is at the end of the lake and provides an outstanding panoramic view and dramatic sunsets and sunrises. The pool is not caged and attracts spiders, crabs and frogs on a daily basis. The best beach on the Island is walking distance. It is almost guaranteed that you are going to relax. If you also have to work, as I did, there is high speed reliable WiFi. ##### Rene R.
