My wife and I (and our little chihuahua) stayed here in June. We come to Sanibel every 3 or 4 months, we live in Jupiter, east coast of Florida. We are both in our mid-30's, so comments about only older people staying here are not true. Everybody knows that Sanibel is not a "party island" but more a family and... more

All stressed out from life, work, etc., we booked cottage # 1. From the moment we arrived, our cares just melted away. Our shabby chic cottage was more than we expected; clean, great A/C, and what a view. The staff was very nice, especially Lisa. This is a no frills place so if you're into the Ritz or the like,... more

The location is the best reason to stay here. I stayed here last year with better results. We stayed in cottage # 12. The cottage is large with two bedrooms and a sofa sleeper. But only one bathroom. This was a issue for five adults. The cottage was clean and neat. The bathroom could use some updating. The fridge had... more

I stayed with my husband, son 20, daughter 16 and our dog, Guido. We had a wonderful time. We stayed in unit #19 and it was very spacious and comfy. We loved the porch. The office personnel were very attentative. We left already planning our stay for next summer. Our only complaint is the bugs, bring mosquito repellent. more

we stayed at beachview cottages for 4 nights - 2 adults and 3 kids (aged 3,8 and 11) - we all loved the place - the unit (no 12) was immaculate and really spacious - the beach was stunning - the pool lovely - our 3 year old learnt to swim in it!) Lots of character, beautiful setting, great deck... more

I last went to Beachview over 30 years ago when I was about 15 years old. It's just as beautiful as I remembered it! My wife and kids (ages 7, 11, 14 and 15) loved it. Beaches were great, water so warm it was like bath water, sunsets were remarkable. The shelling was indescribable. Loads of nice families there with... more

We really enjoyed our stay at Beachview Cottages. It was clean, nice and comfortable. The staff was great....The office people were very nice and helpful. We stayed in #4 and it was perfect for us. It was a little small, but not so small you were cramped. I would say this is the best place to stay for the money.... more

We stayed here on June 2009 with family in Cottage #8, a one bedroom, one bath unit. My advice to anyone staying here would be to request, upon reserving, one of the units that are newly renovated. Cottage #8 was frankly a dump inside. Old furniture, a noisy air conditioning unit that was not properly sealed on the wall, and... more

We stayed in unit 13 with our three children. We wanted a bigger unit but they were full, but this one with the foldout couch worked great. We've never stayed on the beach before and this was as charming as ever. The unit was tastefully updated in basic white and was spotlessly clean when we arrived. Even though this is... more
