Went to Sanibel with my parents, husband and 1 year old son. Beach was nice and people were friendly. There was not a TON to do at the island, so was a little baord after the 5th day.
Stayed at Sanibel Siesta, which was nice. A little outdated, but stil nice. Had a nice sized balcony and just enough room for the 5 of us

I have stayed in all the condos here almostvand all the newly remodled ones arent even as nice as unit 608 unit 608 is like staying in the ritz carlton it the best location top level gas new elevatior beach front it incredible for a rental peoperty the owners did a great renovation thanks for haveing me and my family will be back soon

I need to preface my review with the fact that we own Unit # 408. We vacationed at Sanibel Siesta for over 10 years, and when Unit # 408 became available- we bought it! We updated it with Luxury Sterns/Foster mattress, Theatre seating, Fabrica carpet, porcelain tile, Flat TV's, Kashwere bedding, quiet dishwasher,cabana curtains, etc. We turned it into a personal retreat for our family. Can't say enough about our love of Sanibel Siesta. Closest condos to the beach on the island, warm pool (always), devoted manager (Doug), great neighbors (Mary), clean! (Mike). We have vacationed the world (French Riviera, Mexican Riviera, East Coast) and nothing compares to the Island Style of Sanibel Siesta. We bring our jet ski down and cruise the islands surrounding Sanibel. Love Sanibel Siesta. No Frills, just quiet luxury. (Now has elevators throughout complex too)

We stayed in a 2 bdrm. in Sanibel Siesta recently. Our kids loved the ease of getting to the beach and the space in our condo. We did however find the condo in need of updating, better appointment of towels (1 bath towel per person and no beach towels felt stingy), and a pool snack bar of some kind would be nice. Pond is lovely; everything is very clean around the perimeter and things were quiet which is great for a good night's sleep which we needed! Garage parking was great.
