Top Sanibel Historical Museum and Village Hotel Reviews

Casa Ybel Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The entire property was beautiful. The pictures online did not do it justice. The room was clean and maintained on a daily basis. The pool and the area around the pool were huge. Even though it was crowded there was plenty of room to swim or relax in a chair. I just wish the associate who checked us in explained the amenities that were available. By the time we inquired, it was too late. I would, however, recommend."

Sanibel 1-bedroom Beachfront Condo!

10/10 Excellent

"Easily one of the most beautiful, perfect places we’ve ever stayed through VRBO. The owners were so communicative and kind. The place is so clean, so accurately described, and a perfect location. We had an amazing stay to celebrate my fortieth thanks to Kurt & Lisa! Wonderful small town Island Florida feel - beach and pool front - amazing local restaurants - absolutely perfect place for 1-3 people to stay in Sanibel! Would recommend them again and again!!"

Pointe Santo A33: 2 Bedrooms plus Den! Stunning Gulf Views!

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was really amazing. The grounds were beautiful and well maintained and the condo we stayed in was exactly as specified in the listing. Beautiful views and well taken care of. The beach was easily accessable and there were many umbrellas and lounge chairs outside of the pool area. There was some construction on the exterior clubhouse area (probably due to Ian) and some of the units had construction going on that created noise from time to time but the management company was responsive and we thank them for that. We would highly recommend a visit."

Ultimate Sanibel Beachfront! Island Beach Club, Top Floor, West-Facing, End Unit

10/10 Excellent

"Our 6th trip to Sanibel!While we’ve stayed at this group of condos before and liked the location quite well, this was our first stay at THIS Aunit.The penthouse full-view of the Gulf was extraordinary!! Exactly as described! And very nice that, as the condo is at the farthest end of the building, there are no neighbors visible!Everything about the condo was top of the line! From the way the kitchen was equipped to the high thread-count silky sea-green sheets…and everything in between!A lit-from-within tower for beautiful glasses and a similarly lit wine cabinet were two of my favorite things! Communication w the owners was outstanding! Couldn’t have wished for better. And keyless entry w passcode! No searching for the key! And a telescope! Tripod-mounted for simplicity. Fabulous views!Will definitely return to Sanibel for a 7th trip & hope to find this highly sought-after condo available! Jim & wife Terry from Michigan"
