Absolutely beautiful! Very clean, fresh, spacious, and very comfortable! We lost my husband this Christmas. We are now a family of 6 and NEEDED a 'get-a-way'. The West Beach wasn't crowded or rowdy at all - as we stayed during Spring Break of 2011. We were close to all of the attractions, shops, etc. (3-5 mins). We had a blast and relaxed. We did not want to leave and struggled with the idea of staying longer. Robin and Dana are wonderful, caring hosts! They checked in on us but didn't 'bother' us. We felt almost like family. The left brochures and coupons for the local places which were very helpful! The beds are so comfortable. The King in the Master bedroom was pure luxury. My daughter (13) and I shared it. The bunk beds were comfortable-not 'bunkie' mattresses! Two of my sons slept on the bottom bunks-they are 18 and 20 years old! My other two sons slept on the sofa (didn't even pull out the sleeper) and the trundle that was under the bunk bed-they are 22 and 25 years old. The absolute BEST feature is the 30 ft. glass wall leading out to the balcony. The view is truly breath taking. We arrived late and just in time to see the moon over the Gulf from the balcony. It was so beautiful I just cried. I hesitate to recommend this to others-selfishly-because I do want to go back and I don't want it to be booked! The best things in life are shared-so My entire family gives this a '5 star rating'! We did nearly everything! We: rode mope heads and the 3-wheeled dune buggy; parasailed and rode the banana boat; played on the beach and in the bay; went to the Track (go-karts) and also rode the 'Sky Coaster'; rode the jet skis at the Sandroc Cay Marina; ate at the Shrimp basket, ordered from Dominoes (they delivered-quickly), and ate at Lamberts-a fun place! All of the food was delicious! I've never had All of our food good before. Suggestions: bring your brand of coffee, milk, (the milk we bought at a nearby store tasted 'funny' and we thru it out) and quick breakfast items so you can begin your day and worry about food later. Cooking utensils are there as well as pots, pans. Bring cooking spray to avoid sticking and maybe a few garbage bags-just in case. Also, if you prefer water bottles-bring them, however, the refrigerator has water and crushed or cubed ice right on the door. Cups, plates, bowls are all provided. I wish we were still there! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Sanibel 1705 to all!!!! The pictures are accurate but the "Real Thing" is breathtaking!!!!!
