We also submitted a review on VRBO for this place. We loved every minute of it (except all the talk of the hurricane approaching and closed airport and flights cancelled) BUT everything else was fantastic.

Nice to have the 2nd bathroom even though there was just 2 of us. Never used the 2nd bedroom. Just a few very minor housekeeping problems that were corrected the day I reported. All appliances and air conditioning worked perfectly. Very clean a well stocked with exception of no containers or bowls had tops. Office dropped of 2 packs of plastic food containers asap. I did not expect them to do so. I would suggest to pack a few extras for your stay. Just a few steps to the ocean...We have rented this unit 2x. It is currently for sale.

This is an older unit with no upgrades, but the complex was quiet. It would have been nice if the kitchen had been stocked a little better with basics like salt, pepper, cooking spray, some additional spices. The only thing in this kitchen was pepper and we had to purchase salt, Pam spray, some spices which we left for the next guest. The following is not the fault of the complex, but the beach was covered in red seaweed at low tide and the water filled with the red seaweed at high tide which detracted from shelling and the overall experience. It's no fun to wade in that stuff. Bowman Beach to the west was not plagued by this so not sure if this was just an issue with being on the east end of the island. It was somewhat frustrating to be in a gulf front condo, but have to drive 40 minutes in Sanibel bumper to bumper traffic to get to a beach that was what Sanibel is known for - LOTS OF FABULOUS SHELLS. <br/> For our next visit to Sanibel, although I liked walking to the lighthouse and the Sanibel Pier from this unit, I plan to look for a unit closer to Bowman Beach or on Captiva. <br/>

Our stay was a return to 7C. We were excited to be able to re-book this unit since we were so satisfied with it last time. In fact, we did book it again next year. Everything was clean and well stocked. The view is super, and meals on the lanai turn sandwiches into fine dining.

Our condo was very comfortable and pretty much as listed in the write up. It was clean and the views from the lanai were so pretty. It was an easy walk to the pool, shuffleboard and the ocean. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at 7C; the condo was beautiful, very clean and extremely spacious. The master bedroom has a large bathroom with a huge walk-in shower, double sink vanity and a private toilet. The second bedroom has 2 twin beds. Both bedrooms have TVs. There is another full bathroom (tub shower) off the second bedroom/living room. A starter package of supplies is provided (toilet paper, paper towels, kitchen soap, laundry soap, etc). You will need to bring your own bathroom toiletries. This condo had a hairdryer in both bathrooms yet only 1 of them worked. There are many movies and games provided for the evenings or raining afternoons. There are also beach chairs and sand toys in the second bedroom closet. There are many steps up to this condo but the view is worth it. Parking is provided under the building which is really convenient when it is raining. There are bicycles provided and you can use them any time. There are bike paths across the whole island so I highly recommend using the bikes. We took the bikes all over the island, placing them in the bike racks and they were always where we left them (no bike lock needed). The office on property will "check out" beach towels at $10 each which is return when you return the towels. The gulf and the bay are both a short walk from the condo. There is a shell washing station and a feet/body shower on the way to the beach. I highly recommend staying at the Shell Island Beach Club 7C!

Hey Y'all! We extended our vacation an extra day, so I have already written a great review! We had a great vacation, and will be back!

My bride of 28 years and I had our first ever experience at Sanibel and things could not have been any better. The accomodations at Shell Island Beach Club 7-C were perfect. Great weather, great shelling, comfy, quiet and close to the beach.

Very, very clean. Everything in working order. Kitchen well stocked. Nice to have the 2nd bathroom. Within a block distance to a restaurant we liked for breakfast and one of my favorite island shops for sports clothing. We prefer this side of the island as it is quieter. I highly recommend this property.

We had a wonderful time staying at this location. Amenities and facility excellent and clean.

Our vacation was even better than we expected. Everything, including, the weather was terrific. The only downside was the fact that we were told we could rent the same property for the same period next year if we notified the rental agency shortly after we arrived which we did only to find that it was not available. The agency should have found that out before so we did not have false expectations.

First floor of unit is parking, so although unit is on second floor, you have to climb three flights to the unit. The unit is quiet and clean. There is a screened in balcony facing the beach. One bedroom has two single beds, the other has a queen or king. Master has huge walk in shower. Fifth guest can sleep on pull out couch. It sleeps four adults comfortably. If you have small children, five or six people is reasonable. Kitchen is well equipped with utensils. The grounds are very nice. An unexpected hit with my family was the shuffleboard courts, which were great. Pool was the nicest I've seen in this type of unit. Heated and clean. Very big also. Lighthouse grill is within walking distance and great restaurant. Bikes are all around the property. Some work, others don't. You have to pick and choose. Overall very satisfied with experience. I would rank 9 of 10 stars.

A wonderful week! We have been coming to the island for 27 years and staying at SIBC for the past 15 years!

Our experience was even better than expected. The place was well kept and was in the ideal location for a family with little kids. The pool was great and the access to the beach was amazing. It was one of the easiest trips we've had in a long time. True relaxation. We will definitely be back!

Sanibel Island is one of our favorite vacation destinations and Shell Island Beach Club has become our favorite property to stay! The complex is immaculate and well maintained. The condo was also immaculate! We had an issue with the master bathroom toilet not working but we called the office and the issue was promptly resolved. All of the comforts of home are provided! The view from the lanai is wonderful, we were able to watch dolphins, pelicans, boats and people on the beach. We were very happy with the property and I'm sure we will be returning!

This was the perfect place for our vacation! A very nice condo with the master bedroom in front where you could see the light house blinking at night and wake up to the sun rising and feel the cool breezes from the golf and hear the surf. The king size mattress felt like a cloud. Great shelling and very nice beach and pool. Just a perfect little piece of heaven!

We had a wonderful time and love Shell Island beach club...

This was the third year that we have rented this particular condo. The owner has been great to deal with. The view from the lanai is breathtaking. <br/><br/>The kitchen comes fully equipped with fairly new appliances. We were able to cook meals frequently, although we do enjoy eating at Sanibel's restaurants. <br/><br/>The unit includes the use of free bicycles. Many places on the island are within walk or biking distances. We only used the car a handful on times in our three weeks on the island.<br/><br/>The only issues we had were a soft mattress and lack of beach chairs. My wife has back issues which require a firm mattress.

Sanibel holiday was a great group to work with. They kept us informed through hurricane Irma and the unit was in very good condition when we arrived

Our family had a wonderful vacation in this condo. The condo was clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed, all we had to do was bring our food. Thank you for your honesty on the description of the condo. When you are far from home you can only hope the description is true.

Wonderful experience for a first time family vacation -
