Quiet neighborhood with a walk to the beach
Loved our stay at The Sand. It was quiet, quaint, and just a few minute walk to the beach! I would recommend buying any cleaning supplies, coffee, spices, beach gear etc. you may need. Otherwise the stay was amazing and tucked away at the end of the block.

Perfect getaway spot
This quaint spot was the perfect place to stay for a week while exploring the area. The beach is just a few minute walk, the outdoor spout was perfect for rinsing sandy feet, and the patio was a great area for evening relaxation. My maintenance requests were tended to and resolved quickly which is very much appreciated!! They were very responsive.

Would stay again in a heartbeat
The property is exactly as stated in the description. Very close to beach and a fantastic view of the canal. We returned one to to find the power was off, made one call and someone was there to get it fixed within 15 minutes. Nicely decorated, cozy, perfect place to stay. Would definitely rent again!

An amazing stay!
We had a great time at this unit. It was really clean, had good supplies for the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry. The location was great, about half way b/w Times Square and Lover's Key. The neighborhood was quiet, had great views up the canal and was just a short walk from the beach. We'd definitely rent this one again!

Clean, comfortable, quiet, short walk to beach
Clean, comfortable, tastefully decorated apartment in a quiet neighborhood within short walking distance to great beach. We brought our bikes, and biked everywhere. It was chilly the week we were there so we appreciated the big smart TV with You Tube TV.

Lazy way Retreat
Quiet neighborhood with lots of local residents mixed with vacation rentals. Property was clean and well maintained. Outdoor screened balcony was a bonus. Gas grill was very handy. View off the screened balcony was lovely. The only drawback was the TV. The owner used a YouTube app as the only TV access. The app crashed often and the local management came out to fix it four times. Due to high inconsistency they should not list this property as having dependable TV. Other than that, we would recommend this property to others. We are thrilled to see Fort Myers Beach recovering after Hurricane Ian.

Great little hideaway on the island
We came for a long weekend to attend my father in laws 70th birthday. We decided to stay on the island since we love being near the beach. We will definitely try and book the same unit in the future as we will be spending a few months a year going forward. The only downside was the dishwasher did not work at all. Overall a positve experience. Hopefully we will be back soon.

Pleasant and convenient property 4 blocks from the beach
This is a very nice property, and it is well-maintained. The screened porch on the second floor faces a canal, and is an enjoyable place to hang out. All the appliances are modern, but the kitchen could use some more tools and a blender. Furniture and beds are ample and comfortable. Excellent value for the price.

Beautiful view,
We stayed at this condo for one week. It was comfortably furnished, and our favorite spot was on the screened patio. We overlooked the waterway Canal. The sunrises were simply spectacular every morning. We saw a dolphin frolicking! It was so relaxing it was hard to think about leaving. But then there is the quick access to the beautiful beach, Just a quick walk away. We definitely will visit again.

We love Lazy Way!
Beautiful clean condo in a great location! We absolutely loved it and will definitely want to come back. Only hiccup, which is NOT your fault but you should know: the neighbors across the street have talkative dogs that they leave out on the lanai all day. Their barking is incessant. Maybe talk to them about bringing them inside?

Excellent view and location!
My husband and I rented the property for a couple weeks to bring our two small dogs and just warm up during the winter. We were delighted that the beach is just a few blocks away! The house has a great view of a canal from the screened in porch and kitchen. We loved having two beds and two baths, simply to store things in the 2nd bedroom out of our way and for each of us to have a bath to use. There was a problem with the grill on site, but management of the property brought a new one within 24 hours. A very quick response and they brought a NEW grill! I don't think there was anything we were missing on premises. It was a phenomenal experience for us!
