Shelling, Sunrises, Sunsets, Stargazing & Serenity are yours at Sandpiper...

Welcome Back and thank you for keeping Sanibel and Sandpiper Beach in your heart as we reimagined and rebuilt this very special corner of the world so that it is better than ever.

Plan your Sanibel Island getaway at one of the island's best kept secret hideaways - Sandpiper Beach Condominiums. Peace and serenity can be yours at this 13-acre low-density community comprised of a total of 5 buildings with a total of 27 two bedroom, 2 bath condominiums.


Sandpiper Beach #202 is the perfect home away from home for couples and families, with room to sleep up to 6 people! Newly and beautifully updated in 2024, #202 is the ideal place to relax and spend time while you're not on the beach, shelling or enjoying island activities. Relax on the lanai with a book, a cup of coffee or a cocktail and enjoy the colors of sunrises and sunsets that Sanibel is known for.

Sandpiper Beach 202 has been 100% renovated and updated post Hurricane Ian. It is located on the first living level, with covered parking underneath it. It offers 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, beautifully appointed interior spaces, 3 Smart TVs, washer/dryer and a screened lanai that overlooks the grand lawn to the pool and gulf beyond. Complimentary wifi is provided.

You know you're on Island Time when you open the door to #202 and you are immediately greeted with a beautiful view of the Gulf of Mexico. Relax, unpack and stay awhile!

Take in the view. Listen to the waves, and try to identify the sights and sounds of the birds and wildlife that call Sandpiper Beach home. It is truly a magical place like no other on the island.

Sandpiper Beach 202 features a pale blue-gray coastal driftwood solid-surface flooring throughout, while the living and dining area features a Mid-Century Modern decor with a twist.

The living room seats 6 comfortably, with a comfy convertible sofa sleeper and 3 modern side chairs that are ideal for gathering friends or family to enjoy a program, start a puzzle, or simply enjoy each others' company.

The glass dining table seats 6 comfortably, and there is additional seating for 4 at the quartz kitchen bar, which provides ample space for working remotely, enjoying meals, as well as doing puzzles and playing games.

The kitchen is fully-equipped with easy care quartz countertops as well as a suite of stainless steel appliances, including a range/oven, microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher.

The Primary bedroom features a King bed, Smart TV, lamps with built-in USB charging ports for your phones or tablets, and a sliding door that leads to the screened lanai. In addition, there is an expanded en-suite bath with double vanity and shower. The bathroom has a spa-like feel with cool hues, subway tile and Carerra marble vanity top.

The guest bedroom has two twin beds, a Smart TV and a full-size closet. It is across the hall from the newly renovated bath with its subway-tiled shower and single vanity. A closet area with a full-size high-efficiency washer and dryer is located just outside of the guest bathroom.

A quick trip downstairs leads you to the swimming pool with its chaise lounges, the grilling area, shell washing station and the boardwalk to the beach. It is a mere 110 yards stroll to the sugar sand shelling beaches.

Sandpiper Beach is located adjacent to Gulfside City Park. It is truly a get-away-from-it-all spot, just off of Middle Gulf Drive. With 5 buildings (sans elevators), covered parking, an outdoor heated pool, tennis/pickleball court, shuffleboard, bbq grilling areas, and private beach chair storage, Sandpiper Beach has everything you would want in a very secluded location.

Week in Sanibel
Lovely condo with pool and walkway to beach. We especially liked sitting on the screened lanai in the evening to watch the thunderstorms. Condo has nicely updated bathrooms. Plenty of space for 3-4 people.

We loved our stay! The location was great - it was nice and quiet with beautiful views of the landscaping and the ocean. The condo itself was decorated very nice and cozy. The beds were comfy which is hard to find. Loved how organized everything was - there were labels for all the light switches plus in the cabinets for the dishes !! Lots of attention to detail and thought into making the stay perfect. Also providing beach towels and chairs was a great plus !!!

Sanibel 2BR Condo on the beach
Beautiful, clean VERY quiet condo on the beach. Kitchen had everything you need for regular cooking. Pool was nice and chairs are always available. My only suggestion is they need to upgrade the cable. We didn’t watch much tv at all (news and a game or 2 at night) and having non HD and a super small tv was frustrating. Other than that, it was great!

Nice and quiet!
Good stuff: Great location, nice clean unit with plenty of kitchenware (and nice big kitchen). The beach towels provided were great, parking out of the sun, lots of space indoors and we loved the screened in porch. The pool was lovely and the beach access was great. Other stuff: internet was iffy inside, but was only a problem when we had to sign in for work. When I say “quiet”, I mean it. We got in trouble for playing music on the porch in the middle of the day. There were no children during our visit so outside was super quiet also.

Perfect Get Away
- the kitchen is fully stocked as well as beach and bathroom towels - extremely clean - storage unit has boogie boards, water tubes, coolers, beach cart, umbrella and about 8 beach chairs - pool is close by to the unit. - one of our favorites things about this location is the size. It’s not a huge resort so it’s not over crowded. Only 27 units in 5 buildings. - car port under the building so your car doesn’t heat up in the sun - very seamless check-in and check-out process and they answered any questions prior to our visit extremely quick - very close to Bailey’s General Store and Jerry’s Foods - one hiccup…the previous tenants were late checking out so we weren’t able to check-in at 3:00 pm and were delayed by about 30 minutes. We let them know we had “boots on the ground” and they were super quick to get us in our unit as soon as possible.

The pictures just don’t do it justice. The condo was beautifully decorated and had all the comforts of home. Just steps away from the pool and the beach while being off the beaten path. Absolutely perfect. Can’t wait to get back there as soon as possible!

Great Covid Respite
Yes, we traveled to Florida in the middle of the pandemic. The condo offered a great respite from being at home. It was spotless and we had been assured it had been thoroughly cleaned prior to our arrival. We enjoyed wonderful family time walking the beach, relaxing and riding bikes. Because of the pandemic, we chose to avoid restaurants (although we did make several trips to Joey's for yummy frozen custard) and found the kitchen to be well equipped for cooking. We appreciated the updated bathrooms and the overall feel/comfort of the condo. We brought 2 of our own beach chairs and a beach umbrella, however, there were plenty of chairs in the storage unit. While bikes are not provided, we rented bikes from Billy's and had them delivered. Easy! During the day, the internet was reliable, our college age daughter was able to stream her video lectures. However, we were unable to stream movies in the evening. This is not a game changer for us and we would rent this condo again. We have been going to Sanibel for the past 25 years and Sandpiper is our favorite complex. Easy and user friendly check-in/check-out, friendly staff at Cottages to Castles that were available to answer any questions prior to our arrival. Highly recommend!

This was our first trip to Sanibel and we had a wonderful time!! This condo was perfect for our family. It was a super short walk to the beach, we could not have asked for more! The condo itself was in great condition and I called it “home”, we were so comfortable there. I told my family that I want to come back next year to the exact same unit, but this time I want to stay longer! Communication with property management was always friendly and timely, big thanks to Sharon for all your help!!

Sandpiper 202 vacation was the best!
Location is everything and this place is just what we wanted. Serene and natural surroundings. Neighbors were friendly. We got to use the pool, shuffleboard and tennis court to play pickle ball. Each unit has a storage room for beach supplies and I was able to keep my electric bike in the storage room because there was an electric outlet there. The bike trails around this location are the best. The walk to the beach is a very natural setting. The view from the condo is just the best and the condo itself was clean, well decorated and loaded with amenities. I can’t stress enough how clean the place was. We will be back.

We stayed with our two kids, and the condo was perfect. It had everything we needed, was very clean and comfortable. We love Sandpiper Beach for the quiet, the access to the beach and the great pool, and we would definitely choose this unit again. We appreciated all the informational emails about check-in and check-out. We didn't have a single need while we were there because everything was great, but I know they would have been available if we had needed something. Thanks for a great week on the beautiful Sanibel island!

Excellent spot!
We enjoyed our stay very much! We did not realize that we were staying in an apartment building that had a total of 6 apartments until we got there. But it really didn't matter because it was so nice. The apartment is decorated very nicely. Our king size bed was very comfortable. Our 18 year old son slept on the sofa bed. He did say that it was uncomfortable. Our 17 year old daughter commented that her twin bed was not very comfortable. We really enjoyed the gulf, the beach and the swimming pool. It was great to have the washer and dryer to keep our beach towels and bath towels clean. My husband really enjoyed sitting out on the screened in balcony and reading in the morning. The local grocery store(Jerry's) had everything that we needed. We enjoyed all of the seashells very much. All of the wildlife was amazing. We had a great time discovering the sand dollars and crabs and other animals. Overall, it was a great, clean, comfortable place to stay. We would stay there again. It was a perfect, quiet place for our family to spend time together and enjoy the Florida sunshine and the beach.

Very nicely outfitted condo on the beach
Really appreciated how well equipped this unit was. The kitchen had plenty of utensils, cookware, everything we needed for a few dinners in. The bathrooms were very nicely updated fresh and clean. Furnishings were very nice as well. The storage unit in the garage had some beach chairs and an umbrella which, in July, was very much needed. It's a bit of a walk from the unit to the beach, along a well maintained boardwalk. We were a bit envious of those with wagons for all their gear. A very nice spot.
