Diane and Dave were thoughtful, and always available for assistance if needed. The property was well appointed and had everything we needed, especially to cook full meals. Only concern, that cannot be controlled by Diane and Dave, was the noxious oder from the waste water treatment center. It can be noticed depending on which way the wind is blowing that day. The treatment plant is just behind the small complex. Smells aside, we had a wonderful visit to Sanibel! ##### jennifer g. Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melanie P.

It is in a great location, halfway between out of the way beaches and the main road with shops, etc. The kitchen was small, but had everything we needed. The pool that is shared between a few homes was lovely and there was never anyone else in it when we swam. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Karen F.

This cute cottage was the perfect launch point for our adventures, as well as a great place to wind down at the end of the day. We swam every day in the pool that we had all to our selves most of the time. The couple times there were others, we made friends— many of which were longer staying visitors in other units. Great family friendly atmosphere. We enjoyed using the bikes and wagon to load up and pedal down to the beach. Restaurants were also close by to ride to! The weather was beautiful! We hope to get back for another vacation soon!! ##### NanCee L. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Judy O.

There is a clean, new mattress on queen bed that we used. The shower has good pressure and the kitchen has all the utensils you might need as well as a clean, full-size fridge. We took advantage of the lovely heated pool a few times. The location is within biking distance of good restaurants and an easy walk to a nice, free beach. Be sure to visit Island Cow and Traders, 2 of the best restaurants on the island! Unfortunately, I am sensitive to smells and there is a sewage treatment plant at the end of the road and the odor was unpleasant for half of our stay; but the rest of time, I enjoyed the Adirondack chair on the front porch . ##### Judy O. Stayed 9 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara S. Apr 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Sanibel Shell Cottage We loved our week on Sanibel at the adorable Shell Cottage in a lovely neighborhood within a short walking distance to the beach. It had been completely renovated after Hurricane Ian so everything looked fresh and new with a flair. We spent lots of time on the front screened lanai which felt very private because of the landscaping. Also there was a winding path of shells going to a back raised deck leading to the side door which was pretty with its flowers, trees, and some orchids facing a window. All the seating was very comfortable, inside and out, and the kitchenette was quite workable. There were only 3 things we wish had been supplied - a workable toaster (the lever wouldn't be pushed all the way down the slots - it was a cheap toaster), an easily workable light above the sink and stove - there was one but was very hard to turn on and off, and paper towels. Oh - and we couldn't find a small pot for boiling eggs in - only a very large one. Other than that, everything was perfect, and we would gladly stay there again next March, if available. ##### Barbara S. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ashana K., Phoenix, Arizona Jun 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in Disliked: Communication #### This place was not for us My husband and I rented this cottage for 9 days to celebrate our anniversary . We arrived in the late afternoon and left the next morning. I realize there are a lot of fabulous reviews about the space (which is why we reserved it), but the minuses definitely outweighed the pluses for us. First of all, as people who love to cook our own food (which is one of the reasons why we use vrbo, there was virtually NO place to put our groceries in the kitchen. Not even one shelf in the cabinet was available for us. The kitchen is tiny and cramped, and if. you are a family of more than 2, you are going to be banging into each other and wondering where to sit. There were signs on the walls and refrigerators instructing us to DO NOT turn off the security light, DO NOT open the windows (in the "welcome" book), plus a plethora of other rules telling us what we should not do. The security light was bright and supposedly needed to stay on as a deterrent so critters wouldn't mess with the garden. In all the. years we've stayed in vrbo's (and as a touring musician, I can tell. you it has been many), we've never been in a place where we couldn't open the windows or turn off lights. And you were not allowed to move the furniture on the porch to make it more comfortable. The bedrooms are small and the owners belongings are secured in closets. You feel like you are living with them, even though they are not there. I tried sleeping in the bed and felt like I was suffocating so I spent a sleepless night on the couch with the security light. The next morning my husband and I found another place, tidied up after ourselves and left. I reached out to the owner to let him know and requested that he consider giving us a refund or at least partial refund (something would have been nice!) as a good faith, good customer service gesture. I explained why we left and he denied that there were signs and told us well, we could have opened the windows and turned off the lights. Apparently, they'd had problems in the past. He was rude and unpleasant and I would never, never treat a customer this way in my business. We went to another location and had an amazing vacation with an owner who couldn't do enough for us to make our trip memorable. I cannot recommend this location and absolutely cannot recommend the host. ##### Ashana K. Stayed 9 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane W.

Limited traffic. Nice grounds. House is small, but ideal for what we needed and wanted. A long block from the beach, but very doable for just a short walk. Sanibel still rebuilding and not a lot open. This as of Nov. 18. But there are work crews everywhere helping the process. Great communication between us and the owners, before, during, and after our stay. Nice to know. Short answer. Would I stay here again? Yes. ##### Robert U.

We had a great time at the cottage. It was everything as advertised, great location, clean, well appointed, and very nice neighbors. The pool was perfect and a great place to chat with neighbors. Overall a great experience. ##### Elizabeth B. Stayed 28 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheryl A.

The lanai was a great screened-in outdoor space. The pool is warm and clean! ##### Cheryl A.

The neighborhood (and the whole island) is very peaceful, and the house is well-equipped and was just right for the two of us. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter B.

Bike path is just across the road. Neighbors were great. ##### Peter B. Stayed 27 nights in Jan 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Renee C. Jun 30, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cute Cottage Great location to the beach. Could have been a little less cluttered. More organized. More updated. I bought my own coffee pot Bc the others were dirty. Kitchen towels stained. Bedding is very old. More lighting outside getting in and out of the car after dark considering alligators in the area. Owner should have maintenance on call for plumbing issues and dead animal removal. We were expected to handle both. Cottage is cute but could improve. ##### Renee C.
