Great location
We normally travel with a few essential items, which are usually not available at a rental . However, Kelly’s house had everything you could possible need during your stay. Well equipped kitchen, extra towels , pool towels, detergent , Christmas tree , bikes - you name it. The pool and deck is very nice and equipped with nice outdoor lighting . We truly enjoyed our stay. The bathrooms were newly renovated- overall a very nice and clean place . We highly recommend it.

Best.Vacation.Ever.
Our kids loved the swimming and fishing. From sunrise to after sunset our boys were outside fishing and playing in the pool. Our teen/preteen daughters too! We’ve stayed in condos on Sanibel for years but this year we wanted to try something different and the canal/pool was a winner. The home was well stocked and we were grateful to have many products for our use. The master bath remodel wasn’t completed when we arrived but the owner worked out a concession with us and we got by with one bathroom for the week. It will look amazing when it’s done. Overall it was an amazing vacation and we were happy with the beautiful home

Beautiful & comfy home great location pet friendly
Property owner is nice. Home is beautiful and spacious. I give five stars for everything but cleaning. A little too many dishes and no cabinet to store dry goods. We had to clean several things. Although I gave cleanliness a 4, I definitely recommend staying here. The cleaning is an easy simple fix that shouldn't over shadow the wonderfulness of the place. Owner provides a lot of amenities for renter use, which is awesome(not garage though). Owner was very nice and attentive. The lanai is warm and inviting. Plenty of room in the beautiful home to create wonderful memories. We even had a dolphin in the canal several nights. It was beautiful to listen to it chirp. Very nice location in reference to businesses and still being on the water. I love we could take our poodles with us!! We would stay there again!!

Family vacation
Our family had a wonderful time! This place has everything you could possibly think of and I appreciated how clean and inviting this home was. This is truly a home away from home. We stayed for an entire week. We were able to do bike rides, swim in the pool each day, and fish off the dock. We have a 7 month old and it was so nice to have a crib, stroller, and highchair available on site so that we didn’t have to waste the space packing our own. We chose to rent a pontoon for the week we were there and had a blast finding our own little places to explore. We look forward to coming back again next year!

Cozy getaway on the canal
My husband and I enjoyed our stay here a lot! It had plenty of space and the outdoor area was amazing! We swam every day and visited several local beaches and restaurants in the area. With the pier we were able to fish, and the owner even had extra poles for those that don't like to bring there own. This place has everything you can think of to need and made our trip a luxury. We were able to bring our dogs so they had a relaxing vacation as well. Lovely owners and kept in touch anytime we contacted prior to our stay. Would stay here again.
