Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location of the cottage was good and there was plenty of room to park a car. Everything (restaurants, shopping, grocery store, ice cream, etc.) was within easy driving distance. There were plenty of extra towels for the beach, beach chairs and bicycles for our use. The beds were comfortable. On the downside, the bedrooms were small. So much so that we couldn't fully open the door without hitting the bed. In addition, in the bedrooms there was no storage (chest of drawers) to put clothing or anyplace to put a suitcase, except on the floor. There was a tall chest of drawers in the living room area. One of these in each of the bedrooms would have been very useful but not so much where it was. Everything considered, we would stay here again.

Our room #3) was amazingly clean. We had everything we needed (except some hangers in the closet) for visiting the beach; towels, chairs) and a wagon to transport them. The king bed was comfortable. Location is key, only a 5-minute walk to the beach. I felt safe here and we will hopefully be back for a 3 time next year

Extra amenities were available upon request. Housekeeping is available upon request. Check in was easy and information about The Palmview Inn and Sanibel were available. We were within walking distance to the beach and a convenience shop. Traffic is not busy at this stay. It feels very private as it is a cottage with outside sitting and gathering. Washer and dryer is available and accessible. We loved our stay.

Room was clean, bed was comfortable. Very dark, lights were missing. Very uncomfortable sitting area. Laundry was very convenient. Staff was friendly and helpful. Only sink was in bathroom and it was absurdly tiny. Appliances were fine, no freezer in fridge.

Stayed in unit #1 Sandpiper. Loved that there were bikes to use, beach in bike /walking distance. Cottage was very clean and in a relaxing area. Beds too big for the rooms, no space to move around or even open the door all the way. Laundry room was messy and path too dark to comfortably walk to laundry at night. Wasn't concerned about safety just literally couldn't see the ground to walk. Otherwise great stay, I would absolutely go back and stay at the Palmview/Sandpiper again.
