Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental.

Luckily had the vacation insurance and also got our deposit back quickly. Everyone was very nice and I hope they are all okay after the hurricane.

We enjoyed a great week in Sanibel, and a big reason was our condo location. The place was an easy bike ride to Periwinkle Way, with its stores and restaurants. But the best part was the spectacular view of the Gulf! The owners provide chairs and umbrellas in the beach closet, which was also a nice touch.

We stayed here 1 week and the condo was in good shape. Furniture was new/baths were updated and floors appeared new as well. The kitchen/appliances/kitchenware need some updating for the price charged. A couple of appliances did not work..but it was not a big deal. The pool was clean and well-attended. The tunnel past the storage units was a bit dirty and run down--could use some attention. We enjoyed the wagon provided by the owners to haul our stuff to the beach. I was surprised that we were expected to strip the bed and start a load of wash with linens and towels...never had to do this before; and really did not like having to do chores before leaving. We left the condo in immaculate condition and our deposit was refunded in a prompt manner--which was appreciated. I think with a little TLC on the outside of this building, it could be a A rating. The best part was how close it was to the beach...SUPER convenient.

Beautiful, Clean and quiet. Day 3 of our stay, the water heater went out. Went to pick up family at the airport and by the time we were back, a new water heater was already installed. Less than 2 hours from when I called. Fantastic service.

Reviewer Comments: Beautiful view, nice furniture, very clean, EXCELLENT WI-FI!!!, we would not change anything EXCEPT the glass table was dangerous for our grandchildren.. rather it was wood or simply not glass. Floor picks up a lot of dirt so we had to wipe often. We needed 2 weeks or we definitely would have renewed. One thing : because the condo is directly in The center of the entire complex, you could pretty much hear every single word or whisper that we said on our patio down at the pool. But that was no big deal. Except when our grandchildren got cranky! Ha ha Ha

The condo was the perfect location. An easy bike ride, walk, or very short drive to the grocery store, ice cream shop, and a handful of good restaurants. The ocean views are lovely, and the lanai balcony is very spacious. Our only complaint was the cleanliness. There was a toothbrush left in the sheets of one of the beds, making me suspect those weren't cleaned! We also had a still dirty hand towel in the master bath when we arrived. The dishwasher needs replacing, causing a handful of dishes in the cupboard to be dirty/require cleaning before use. Floors were dirty, but people probably wore shoes in the house and the floors just aren't cleaned between occupants. Everything else was wonderful, but I'd skip booking here again due to the uncertainties on what was actually cleaned before we arrived.

We enjoyed our stay at White Sands. The property was quiet, quaint and relaxing. The view from this property and convenience to the beach cannot be beat. We did have some issues with the plumbing and dryer in the unit. Some of the kitchen appliances are dated as well. However, overall, this property is lovely and it was a great week!
