Blind Pass Condos at Bowman's Beach C203 on beautiful Sanibel Island

The condo property itself is beautiful. It is very well maintained, beautiful landscaping. nice amenities. The private beach is stunning and the shelling can't be beat! Couple things. 1. There is NO elevator. So if you are on the second floor, be prepared to haul your luggage, groceries, beach cart, etc. up and down the stairs. This was definitely an issue for my older mom. Had I known, we would have requested a bottom floor. 2. It is NOT a short walk to the beach. It is 1/4 mile. The first part of the walk is not bad; however, when you reach the sand dunes, the sugar sand is extremely hard to get through, especially pulling a beach cart, or if you have difficulty walking. The condo itself could definitely use some updating. The furniture and carpets are pretty worn and one of the sides of the king bed is sagging. It could also stand to have a bit better cleaning. We arrived Saturday evening and noticed there were NO bath towels or beach towels. We did have *14* hand towels and *13* washcloths. I called the after hours maintenance and was told someone would get back to me. No one did that evening. Called again, first thing the next morning, no one called back. Called again a bit later, was then told someone was coming. 6 hours and multiple phone calls and texts later, FINALLY someone shows up with the towels. (By now we have been at the condo almost 24 hours.) The front desk girl was super nice, she explained that the housekeeping company had been having issues. (No kidding. Time to get a new one.) Overall, everyone had a good time. The condo was fine, once we got everything settled. The beach closet was a welcome bonus! Lots of chairs, a beach cart, fishing poles, sand toys, nets, etc.

This was our first stay on Sanibel and we will definitely return. It was great to have the comforts of home, close walk to the beach and amazing pool. We liked having the beach closet but some of the items were broken and are in need of replacement but overall was a great addition to our stay. We will definitely come back to Blinds Pass.

The area was nice with great beach access. Loved Sanibel Island. I was a bit disappointed with the cleanliness of the property. The carpets need to be replaced, the walls need painting and the appliances and televisions need upgrading. . There was a ton of dust on the fan blades so we were afraid to turn on the fans worried that dust would get on the bed. There was also a bowl of pudding left in the refrigerator so i wonder if the refrigerator was cleaned. Location of property was perfect though and the check in process was very easy.

Very clean roomy condo. Both of the bedrooms with king beds were spacious. . Kitchen well furnished. Office staff very helpful with everything from replacing a broken coffee pot the same day , advice in eating and rentals, to being helpful in reserving the kayaks on property. (My wife and daughter had more than one up close and personal magical encounters with manatee while kayaking in the canal adjacent to the property.) My kids loved the pool. Easy walk to beach with great shelling as usual. Checking in on a Sunday was a little tenuous since the electric door code to condo did not function. But after some advice from a neighbor we got it to open. Maintenance came the next day to change the batteries and staff said they are in process of upgrading to new doors. Would definitely stay there again.
