Condo was exactly as pictured. Great location. Although Milton chased us away after only 2 days, we enjoyed the time we had there. We will defenitely be coming back!!
We had everything we needed. Beach chairs, sand toys, pickle ball rackets, towels, beach wagon, books, puzzles, dvds and more. Well equipped kitchen and plenty of comfortable bedding. Highly recommended.
The host experience being King Fisher rentals on Sanibel Island was amazing. The unit itself was dirty overly crowded with furniture. The coffee pot broke the first day. The thermostat broke the second day. King Fisher was kind enough to come out and fix that right away. You could not access the lanai from the living room due to the fact that there was a giant piece of furniture in front of the door and the door was nicely off track I could go on and on but it just needs updates if it werenât for Kingfisher rentals on Sanibel our stay wouldâve been absolutely miserable. You guys are lucky to have them.
The weather was perfect during our stay. Mid-80s and low humidity. While the island still has a ways to go to recover from the hurricanes it was nonetheless beautiful and most shops and restaurants were open. The gulf was warm and clear. The shells were amazing and different from anywhere we've been before. The condo was immaculate. The rooms are large and the furniture comfortable. The pool was clean, large and heated. The only issue we had was that the condo provided beach chairs which were low sand chairs. Given that we and many of the vacationers staying at this condo are seniors, we could not use them and thus did not get to sit at the beach. We had to settle for walks along the shore. We contacted the rental agent directly who said she would check to see if they had any regular beach chairs they could send us but we never heard from her after that.
The condo was beautiful but the track for the sliding glass door from the living room needs to be repaired. We called when we arrived and a repair man came by and semi fixed it but told us to avoid using it if possible. The left side as you went from the living room to the porch worked but the right side was a struggle. There is a gap around the entrance door that could be fixed with some weatherstripping. The AC is not balanced and the master bedroom was about 8 degrees warmer than the other bedroom with 2 beds so one couple froze while the other couple sweated. We had a karen report us when we drove down 3 buildings to get closer to the beach and apparently parked in their spot number 132. At the time we parked there were no cars in that entire section and the total number on the side our rental was on had a maximum of 12 vehicles which included 2 of ours and a few of construction peoples vehicles. Dave said he had to give us a warning as another party complained and I understand that and I certainly understand if it was in season as we have stayed there in season and most spaces are occupied. Perhaps we could have been told you can park anywhere except 132 and maybe 6 other spots. I did notice about 1/2 of the vehicles did not even have a parking pass. I have photos and a video if you would like proof but I am sure you are aware of the 10% or so occupancy. We love Sanibel and will be back next year maybe twice like this year but may stay on another property.
