We love Villa Sanibel and Sanibel Holiday. Never have had a bad experience. When provided with constructive feedback we feel heard. We notice that the little things we mentioned after last year’s vacation were updated for this stay. Had a couple of bugs to wrangle. A tiny lizard was discovered hiding out in the bathroom. I did manage to capture and release outside. We did not love this part of the vacation but understand that these things happen. If it had been a bigger lizard or scorpion I would have called for backup. Great accommodations. This time we noticed that the walls (master bath), slatted closet door for water heater, and vents could use a good vacuum or dusting. Still think a mattress topper for master bed would be great. Bed is hard and causes me back issues. I’ve been told the twin mattress is very comfortable.

Loved the location, comfortable bed, and enjoyed all the beach equipment. The living room chairs are in serious need of replacement. The cushions are worn out and very uncomfortable. For the price you pay for this condo, you should be able to sit down in the evening and be comfortable.

We have stayed in this condo before and find this a place to return to. Being able to walk out and be directly,on the beach is a plus. Water was wonderful. Sunsets awesome. The only negative was the guest bedroom was without a tv for the entire week. Jack is super to work with. We will see you next June.

We have rented 3 units here for 13 yrs. Rental agency very responsive to any problems that arise. This is not truly a review but things we found that need correction. The starter kit is very poor quality. Nothing lathered. The bathroom soap was the size of a quarter also didnt lather�� had to go right to Baileys before we could do dishes . With the prices of all the units increasing this was very disappointing. Also a microwave was replaced but instead of the space saver kind , the new one sits on the counter top taking up what little food prep space there is. However the unit location cant be beat

As you sit on the lanai you can’t get any closer to the entrancing gulf on Sanibel.
Enjoyed watching dolphins in gulf & turtles up by the lanai on the board walk.
Comfortable well equipped unit.

We have been regulars at Villa Sanibel. We love the location and proximity to the beach. This unit was new to us in 2021 and we enjoyed it just as much. We love working with Sanibel Holiday. Some of the countertop appliances need replacing...toaster and coffee maker. Pictures are accurate and condo is comfortable. It easily becomes home while visiting.

Villa Sanibel 1A is a great place to stay just steps from the beach. We had a great time. The only thing that could make the stay any better is to have some better pans to cook in and a decent toaster. It would also be nice if they have more pillowcases for the extra pillow they do provide.

Villa Sanibel was the perfect place to enjoy the ocean. Six steps and you were on the sand! We could see the sunrise and sunset from our condo. Found many unique shells and saw many different wildlife that inhabit the island...gopher tortoise, osprey, dolphins, and fish that were caught by neighbors. The beds were very comfortable. The linen package was the best we have ever had. Nice sheets and thick towels with plenty to use! Condo was well equipped for cooking . . . but also close to many good restaurants, so why cook! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The unit was steps from the ocean! With that being said it could use some improvements like new beach chairs, new living room furniture. Also, beware that there isn’t even salt and pepper in the unit. Otherwise, it meant our needs for a relaxing week.

Great week on Sanibel Island. We appreciate the mask mandates in place and for most part, people were wearing masks in public places. We ate out twice at restaurants with outdoor seating and mainly got take away meals. Condo in perfect location for food, groceries, biking and awesome sunsets but could use a little tlc and cleaning. Main tv volume was whacky and during pandemic, people spending lots of time watching tv so that could be addressed easily with a upgraded tv. Kitchen has nice appliances but utensils also need upgrading. Overall, would definitely love to stay here again but would bring more supplies from home! Note: linens are minimal so was happy I brought a few blankets and pillows. Brought own beach chairs but looked like they were well stocked on those.

Our second time staying at Villa Sanibel 1A. Right on the beach and ground level: two of our requirements! Quiet, small complex. Halfway between Jerry’s and Bailey’s supermarkets. Close to the Bailey Tract. Great pool. Nice tennis courts (if we played!). Everything you need.

Manager's Response

Well my job is done here! You described Villa Sanibel and unit 1A near perfectly! The only detail missing was 6 steps to toes-in-the-sand those that know Sanibel this is a truly unique location!

We have been going to Villa Sanibel sine the 1970’s . We love the USA land of Sanibel and we live to stay at Villa Sanibel, especially 1-A as it is directly in the beach. It is always a pleasure to go through Sanibel Holiday for our vacation rentals at Villa Sanibel. They are professional, courteous and always helpful. Once again, we had an amazing time during our October visit!

Manager's Response

It doesn't get any better than Villa Sanibel 1A! 6 steps to toes-in-the-sand status with a well stocked locker full of all the beach equipment you could possibly need for the perfect beach day. We truly appreciate the Sanibel Holiday staff shout-out! We are always striving to ensure the best vacation experience for our guest and we love hearing we did just that!! We hope to see you all on Sanibel again very soon!

This is our 3rd time staying in Villa Sanibel but the first time staying in this unit. This unit needs some work and updates. The kitchen has a lot of blemishes and doesn’t have the adequate cooking supplies. The sink in the kitchen had a constant drip under the cabinet. The washer machine had mold growing on the rubber inside lip. The beds and pillows were very uncomfortable. We are so thankful we brought our pillows from home. The tv in the master bedroom is on a small side table and we were so afraid it was going to fall on top of our son. Overall we had a great week being able to just walk out onto the beach.

This was our 7th stay in Villa Sanibel 1A, and it continues to be one of our favorite places anywhere! The condo has such a fantastic location, Jack (the owner) is great to deal with, and the other people who stay in the complex have become friends. We’re never ready to leave this beautiful spot!

All about the location but....

Nothing closer to gulf. Super location and lovely neighbors. Convenient distance from Baileys, etc.

The unit itself needs significant maintenance. A/c wonky, plumbing (shower doesn’t drain, toilet not flushing), electrical switches breaking, apparent broken window patched with foil????

This is our 11th year renting this condo. It’s kept in wonderful condition , has lots of cooking equipment and plenty of extra seating as we are 11 people total in 3 units but eat dinner together. The management company is very attentive to any need that arises . We notice over the years that furniture replacement happens as things start looking warn out. It is always spotless and we have reserved again for next year. The location is incredible with the unit sitting right on the sand with no obstruction to the water. It truly is an uncrowded beach as The total units number 20. Rentals are for 1 week so you get to know who is there and it’s quiet, no loud music and partying.

Our visit to Villa Sanibel 1A was our third. We enjoy unit 1A very much. Wonderful view everyday. We we're very happy that the red tide cleared up for our visit. Unfortunately we had to deal with construction noise on two neighboring unit, which distrubed our week of peace and quiet. Sunday as early as 7 am. Our parking place was occupied by construction vechicles each day. We made the best of it. It would have been nice to be offered a discount for our inconvenience.

This was our 8th year renting 4 units. It's our family reunion every year. Villa Sanibel is quiet , not a lot of units and therefore uncrowned at the pool and beach. Very relaxing with a very responsive rental agent in case of a maintenance issue (7 minutes). Just a few feet to the beach no carrying equipment for a quarter mile. You are right on the sand.

Our second visit here. Can't get any closer to the beach! Property as described. Only issue was no hot water- called management company and they promptly sent out a plumber. It was a flipped switch. Remedied in 5 mins. No-see-ums are ferocious after Irma. Would love to see that special screen material used on lower half of screens-limited our evenings outdoors.

An amazing getaway just steps from the beach! We have stayed at beaches all over the world and this one is by far the closest to the water. We poured a cup of coffee in the morning and just walked a few steps to drink it with ocean water on our feet. Villa is very comfortable, basically 2 master suites since both have bathrooms and can be closed off from each other and the main living area. It was very quiet, early risers never heard by those still sleeping. Beach is loaded with shells which was great fun but bring along water shoes if you have tender soles. Sanibel Holiday was also great, one of the best rental companies we have used. They were so friendly, prompt and accommodating. We go to Sanibel every year and this is our first time using them but will do so every time in the future. We will be back for sure!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Sanibel.We wanted to be on the beach and this fulfilled that desire. It is very comfortable. The king bed was comfy; better pillows would be nice. The bathrooms are are nice. The kitchen is great, nicely redone. All items for basic cooking and dining are provided. The washer and dryer is new and great. The furniture is not fancy, but it's clean and "beachy". We loved the screened porch and spent much time out there. The furniture out there is very uncomfortable , but we made it work to be by the water. There are beach chairs and beach towels, sand toys, etc. If you don't need super fancy, it's really a great place.

Manager's Response

Thank you for your review. We are glad you had such a good time at Villa Sanibel 1A. We have shared your thoughts about the lanai furniture with the owner. He has replaced it with new high end furniture for an even more relaxing stay at his condo. We hope to see you back again next year!
