Sanibel Siesta, located on world famous Sanibel Island in the Gulf of Mexico, is a crown jewel along the coast of Southwest Florida. Our seaside resort offers a private gulf front location featuring 2 bedroom/2 bath accommodations with spacious living rooms, dining areas, fully equipped kitchens, cable TV, free wifi and a large screened lanai --- the ultimate in vacation rental condominiums! Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and sugar white beaches, Sanibel Siesta offers a heated pool, tennis courts, shuffleboard and outdoor gas grills. A challenging golf course is nearby. You'll enjoy friend neighbors and a quiet charm at our island resort!
Stayed here in August 2022, unit 703. Super convenient, beautiful beach access. The beach wasn't too crowded and was full of interesting things. I guess August is not the peak season though. The lanai (every unit has one) was perfect for hanging wet gear (drying racks provided), and the furniture out there was actually comfortable to sit and watch the sunset or afternoon rainstorm. In most of the buildings, the second and third floor units share a garage on the first floor. So 703 was on the third floor, 701 was on the second floor, and they shared a garage on the first floor. The garage was equipped with plenty of beach gear. The unit was clean and equipped with everything we needed - kitchen gear, soap, the towels were not unlimited but we had enough. You need to bring your own beach towels though or rent them from the office. The biggest problem while we were there was the internet, but it was really only a problem on Sunday, and as soon as the property manager came in on Monday he had it sorted out for us. Also he mentioned they are replacing the system, so hopefully by winter it will be more reliable. The front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Medium problem - the mattress. Rental beds are always a problem for me. This wasn't the worst I've ever been on, and I managed to sleep, but it wasn't what I would call "comfortable". Besides the bed everything in the unit was in very good condition. The other smallish problem I will mention is that the approach to the garages is quite narrow and lined with bushes, so it's rather hard to pull in without scratching up the rental car. But worth it for the covered garage, I think. The location was good - I don't think you could walk to many restaurants, but it wasn't far to drive wherever we wanted to go. The island is very bike friendly, but we weren't about to try biking to dinner in the middle of August.…

My family and I stayed in March 2022 for our spring break. We don't have a bad thing to say about it. The ladies at the desk were always pleasant, from our initial phone payments and bookings, all the way through our stay. It is in a good location, and the grounds, pool, and unit we had were well maintained. We stayed in 601 and it was lovely, and updated. Perfect little view/peek of the ocean as well. I've stayed on the island two other times but at a different condo. We just loved this one, and will plan a trip here again in the future. Quiet, clean, with everything we needed. A short walk to the beach, a place to clean shells, quaint grounds with pond, and a nice pool for a change of pace. Thank you for the positive experience to make new memories here with our family.

This is our second year staying in 504. We love this place. Large kitchen and porches are so nice for big families. Easy access to the beach. It’s a very peaceful community. Sarah and Patricia in the front office are wonderful. The pool area was never packed. I highly recommend staying here.

We have been staying here for years and we just love it. It is clean, quiet, right on the beach, yet walkable to restaurants. The pool is lovely. The staff are great. It really just feels like a home away from home at this point. Our little slice of Heaven on Earth!

Loved the condo. It was clean and had everything we needed. Pool was in front of the condo with easy access. Beach was a quick walk, and we used the chairs, umbrella, and beach toys that were available in the garage. Loved the location. Simply beautiful! we only wish we had more time to stay.

This spot was exactly what we were hoping for. Family vacation (4 members - including a 6YO & 3.5 YO). Clean, walking distance from the beach, and overall convenient. Would recommend and certainly stay again!

We stayed here for the first time. The condo was very clean and well equipped . The beach was very nice. This is a good family location and will definitely return in the future. The only downside was the wi-fi was so slow it would not load and since cell phone coverage was not good, we had very little access to internet.
