Island Inn
FULLY RESTORED! Rare Walkout Condo On Sanibel Beach
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (82)
"We had a wonderful time at Breakers West. The condo was absolutely spotless. It was the only condo group that was occupied due to the recent storms. The shells were piled up 3-4 feet in some spots on the beach due to the storms. The Island is rebuilding but we found plenty of spots open for lunch and dinner. The condo was a very short walk to the beach and it had everything we needed for a week stay. We would highly recommend this property."

Stunning Luxury villa "Sandpiper" across the street from the beach!
9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (31)
"Very short walk to a nice beach where the fishing was outstanding. Canal very handy in the back yard for a boat. Minimal furniture, for example nothing to set a suitcase on, but essentials were there. It was very clean and smelled fresh. The main bed was comfortable. We didn't use the twine."
