Waterfront vacation rentals in Sanibel Island

My very first Airbnb and I'm sure it will set the standard for any future ones that I use. Super convenient location, plenty of parking, right on the canal so you see the dolphins and the manatees at any given point. I met Lori in person and she helped me with everything that I needed and was super kind. I spent a week kayaking the island and there are so many places to go that you don't have to leave the island once you get there.

I had a great stay at the condo. The location is great, easy walk to the beach to watch sunsets and don't worry about driving and parking. I loved the decor and panoramic windows. Overall, the condo is very spacious, updated and parking is ample. I would definitely stay here again if I'm back to Naples area.

Beautiful and quiet location. The property management company made it extremely easy to check in and out. They had our schedule and met us at the ferry dock to take luggage and tour the island before showing us to the house. Will be staying again

Sylvia’s home was beautiful, very clean and stocked with everything we could have possibly needed!

Even better than we could have imagined, the place and location was so beautiful and well kept! It was set slightly away from the busier part of town, so it was super peaceful. The kitchen was also fully stocked with anything you could possibly need for cooking, and the rest of the home was stocked with things for the beach which was super helpful including towels, chairs, an umbrella, beach toys, and much more! The beach was within steps of our place, same with the lovely pool. The balcony had the best beach view and we got to watch all the gorgeous sunsets. Would highly recommend to anyone!!

The place is in a perfect location the lanai is one of the coolest spots I’ve ever seen. We stayed in the lanai and were in the pool a ton! The communication with the host was some of the best I’ve experienced. The amenities offered were 2nd to none beach towels beach cart, umbrella, coolers everything you need for your beach excursion. It was a great space for me and my wife.

Irina's condo was perfect for our girl's trip. Kitchen was well equipped, we cooked most of our meals there. Screen porch was a great place to eat dinner or spend an afternoon reading. The beach was a short walk and there were towels and beach supplies provided. Parking was easy. Lots to do close by!

Very clean and well equipped condo on the 10th floor overlooking the gulf and bay.l From our lanai we watched dolphins, ospreys and one morning a bald eagle diving for fish. Scott was a great host and responded to any questions we had within minutes. The property has a nice private beach, pool and 4 weber gas grills. Flippers restaurant is only steps away. The only issue is that the new bridge onto Ft.Myers Beach is under construction so at times there is construction noise and access to the beach south of the bridge is blocked. This was not a big issue for us and overall we had a very enjoyable week.

Great stay! Everything from downtown, Sanibel, and the beach were easy enough to access from here. The host were responsive, and didn’t have all the demands that you commonly see from other host. Thanks for an enjoyable weekend we look forward to coming back!

I’m so glad that several other properties failed to respond to a boat question we had, which led me to finding Villa Agua Vista. Tonya responded to all my questions quickly or would always get back to me when she didn’t have an immediate answer. From start to finish Tonya was super easy to work with. Always helpful and very quick to respond. Definitely delightful and personable - a super host for sure! The property and its amenities were amazing. We used the kayaks a couple times and some of the fishing gear came in handy. The spa and pool were rarely lonely. We decided to replace our usual spring break on the sand with some place to moor a boat and it was great. The house was top notch, all the basic simple things were waiting for us. If you want to find something to complain about, I seriously doubt you can or would. The photos don’t do the home justice but they also don’t lie. So don’t over think it and just book with Tonya.

From the moment we walked in the front door, we knew our holiday was going to be incredible. We had a very late flight and Cara unlocked the door for us on arrival to make entry smooth as silk. Waiting for us was a welcome card and as we walked room to room, we were in awe. The pictures do not do this home justice and not a single detail was overlooked. It is impossible to not feel at home and we are so thankful we made the choice to stay at Cara’s resort. Cara was extremely responsive and proud of the local community. We dined at several of her recommended spots and not disappointed at any of them. The outdoor kitchen made it difficult to leave however, we wanted to experience the local life. Thank you Cara for being an attentive and caring host. We hope this will be a place we visit with our family many times in the future. 🩷

We had an absolutely great 4 day stay. The house is beautiful and the views are stunning. The description in the listing is completely accurate. We would for sure choose this place again for future stays.

The house was beautiful! Very peaceful and comfy. My family and I really enjoyed our stay.

We would definitely stay again! Everything we needed was available. The house was nicely stocked with necessities. Super responsive host. Well thought out space inside and out. Peaceful and designed for relaxation. Thank you Jayme!

Tracy was an excellent host. Super helpful and very responsive. House was spotless when we arrived and everything was as advertised. Location was beautiful with plenty of great bars and restaurants nearby. The family loved the pool/hot tub and the gazebo on the water. I would highly recommend this place to stay.

One word to describe…. PERFECT! Perfect location, perfect house, perfect host. Looked just like the pictures but pictures did no justice. We were in awe when we walked in. The layout was perfect with plenty of space for everyone. The pool was magnificent. Had a great time fishing and relaxing in the pool. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you would need. Never wanted to leave and would definitely book again.

Lisa's place was exactly as described—clean and convenient. It was 5 minutes to Ft. Myers and 15 minutes to Sanibel. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to enjoy the pool, but it couldn't have been in a better spot (directly in front of the condo), and Lisa had plenty of pool and beach toys available. Great stay! If I make it down there again, I would definitely stay at Lisa's place.

Great place to go with your family! Our 4 and 7 year old had the best time of their lives! I would stay here again!

We had an amazing stay at this condo for our honeymoon. It was the perfect place to relax together and just enjoy the beach! The condo was extremely nice and it was great to have an umbrella and chairs available to use! Elizabeth was very helpful and had so much information for us and recommendations which was so helpful as first time visitors! The area was beautiful and the pool was also very nice! We cannot wait to come back to Sanibel/Captiva!

Nice condo. Loved the pool. The beach is directly across the street. Plenty of beach and pool supplies available. Recommend that you rent a car to get to restaurants and grocery store.

Where do we start…this place was everything we wanted and more! The condo itself was so clean and comfortable, we felt right at home instantly. the balcony looks right out to the water where we saw dolphins almost every day. You go down stairs and your instantly on the beach and about ten steps down to the ocean, and then when you want to change up the scene the pool is steps away as well, with a beautiful view of the ocean! And all of this was extremely convenient when traveling with a toddler. The scene was just gorgeous day and night and I’m so glad we found this gem of a spot. Also the host was extremely helpful and kind. Sanibel Island is only ten minutes away with lots of yummy restaurants and places to go. Highly recommend this place!!

Condo was very nice, clean, and updated. It had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable! We were a little bummed that the balcony didn’t face the water, it faces the parking lot but we still were able to see from the side. The beach was great, private and we saw a lot of manatees and dolphins very close up. The bridge that is being built was interesting to watch and once completed, the views will be even better! Definitely a cute little place to stay! Owners were great and very responsive! Overall, it was a very fun 2 weeks!!

If I could give 6 🌟, I would. This is our second stay with Holly. To say she is responsive is an understatement! We were thrilled with our stay. We love everything about the condo…the bed and pillows are exceptionally comfortable. We made great use of the beach chairs and umbrellas since each day was filled with sunshine. We enjoyed walking and visited some of the restaurants we’d enjoyed in the past. Watched sunsets from Holly’s screened in balcony and on the beach. It is great to see Captiva recovering. Without hesitation, we would stay in the condo AGAIN! Really a super host!

Staying at Juanita’s place was wonderful. Got to see the sunrise every morning and rode my bike to the beach everyday! I highly recommend staying in the condo as the neighbors were so lovely. In addition the pool was wonderful at the end of each day!
