Newly remodeled Parakeet cottage! Walking distance to beach, restaurants, shops!

The Parrot Nest is one of the Old-Sanibel cottages located on the quiet East End of the island. Since 1955, our charming cottages have been welcoming visitors and until the early 1960's they were brought to our shores from the mainland by ferryboat.
Our cottages are newly renovated in a coastal decor offering you epic comfort, relaxation in a beautiful room. We are within walking distance to the historic Sanibel Lighthouse and fishing pier, beautiful shelling beaches, shopping and restaurants.
If you like, use our complimentary bikes and explore miles of paths covering the island and leading to wildlife refuges, kayaking spots, secluded beaches, and meandering past more eateries, shops, and galleries. The Parakeet cottage is a charming one room with a queen and features a private patio with an outdoor dining table, chairs and umbrella.

40th Anniversary
We chose Sanibel for our 40th Anniversary trip and we were so happy to find your little cottage. It was perfect for the two of us. Thank you for all the shells that we found on your beautiful beaches! The people on the island were friendly and the restaurants were delicious!

Perfect Cottage
This was just a quick weekend with some friends but I am already planning my next trip. The location is perfect. The Bikes, Chairs and other beach amenities were great to have and in amazing condition. The property management company is easy to work with and very responsive to questions. This is a great little cottage getaway.

This place was spic and span clean.
Clean house, close walk to the beach. What would have made it great would be to replace the dresser with a couch. No where comfortable to sit. And a few more dishes in kitchen would be nice. But overall good experience

Parakeet Cottage #6
My husband and I booked this property very last minute. In preparation for the one-night stay, I was reading all of the reviews I could find online and ran across one from just one month previous, which was very negative. I emailed the property manager with my concern and she responded immediately. The small, efficiency cottage was just what we needed for our brief stay. We used the bicycles provided to explore the entire island, biking 25 miles total. This is perfect for an island getaway where you spend most of your time outdoors. My only feedback would be that the bed wasn’t very comfortable. We would not have been happy spending more than one night in it, but…we are also spoiled by our Tempur-pedic mattress at home. Everything was clean and we walked to breakfast at the Lighthouse Cafe in the morning.

Clean and great location.
This was a great location, 15 minute walk to the Lighthouse beach. Near coffee/ice cream and our favorite restaurant Grandma Dot’s. The bed was comfortable. It was also very clean. Our only complaints were the laundry wasn’t working and the kitchen supplies could have been better. We would stay here again for sure.

Do it!
If you’re thinking about staying here, do it. It’s such a fantastic property, close to everything, and the staff are all so friendly. Take it from us though: walk around the property! They have a ton of beach stuff that we didn’t see until we were leaving, lol. Great stay and can’t wait to come back :)

Tiny Cottage
The cottage is cute and clean. Bed was very comfortable! We enjoyed the general area and ease of getting to areas of interest. Nice restaurants and shops nearby, but not close enough (for us) to walk. The beach is a 2 min drive away, so convenient. We will be back!

Great Get Away
This little cottage had everything we needed for our stay. It is in the perfect location on Sanibel Island as well. We used the complimentary bikes to ride around, got to know the island and visit the beaches. I highly recommend this little gem. The restaurants and stores nearby also do not disappoint. I highly recommend and will stay here again!

Parrots Nest Parakeet #6
This cottage is adorable. Exactly how the pics portray it. Small, tastefully decorated, kitchen stocked for 2, comfortable bed, all we needed for our stay! We chose this to be close to our kids staying in a beachside condo. It was in walking distance to them, the beach, lighthouse cafe(great breakfasts). Great find, would highly recommend!

Lovely little location and property. Just as the listing posted. Perfect for us! We didn’t drive the car once for the 3 days we were there. So convenient to ride bikes( provided on property) everywhere we went.
