Breathtaking, Expansive Gulf views, Steps to the Beach - Beach Sanctuary - Roelens

The host was very misleading. We received consistent erroneous messages. The property did not have a pool. We received two different messages prior to arrival putting us on notice that the pool cleaning group would be onsite during the first day of out stay. We became ex tied that possibly the property had a pool. Of course it did not. We then received arrival/entry instructions giving us an alphabetical code for entry. We later learned that was incorrect and were provided a numerical code for entry. We arrived to the area early and I asked the host if the property were ready could we come in earlier than the posted 4:00 check in time. We received a message a little later that the property was ready and we could come at 1:00 but for a fee of 200. We just found something to do for a few hours. We then had two dogs. One was a service dog. The other in training. The host could not get this straight although I asked at registration where do I note that we have two medium dogs. This conversation went on for two days and they never actually got the information correct. The property is listed as a pet friendly property.

Our stay was delightful, beach was beautiful the house was everything you said it would be. My grandchildren collected shells everyday, we will definitely stay there again. Thank you

Beautiful home and tons of space but could use a little TLC. The views are amazing! We had a couple issues and property management did their best to handle and were very responsive. They were kind enough to give us a gift card and apple pie for the inconvenience caused by the issue we had. A lot of the beach was closed off due to the safety of baby birds hatching, but we still had enough space to enjoy the beach at the water. Great area for bird lovers. The beach is huge - about a 4 minute walk to get to water's edge, but very private. We enjoyed our stay.

We had an amazing time. The property was in a beautiful location. Very quiet and a pristine beach. Quick drive to shops and restaurants. The house was nicely furnished and there was a lot of space. The only reason I didn't give the house 5 stars is because of the air conditioning. During the day it had to be set on 74 and 75 at night. This is s ridiculous rule for paying guests. When it's in the 90's the house gets very hot. Hence the box fans in every room. We kept all the ceiling fans on high and it was so hot at night. Even with the noisy box fans running. The only room that stayed cool was the top floor. I would definitely recommend this property but only if the air conditioning was upgraded.

The property is well taken care of. Good customer service Highly recommend and home to revisit

Very accommodating property and great communication fromHost. The back porch view is amazing! It will be nice when that area is grown back up from the hurricane and there’s a little more to do in that area! Property is great though, and I have rented it twice!

Loved the location but a lot of construction was going on to one side of us and on the new bridge but that was expected after the hurricane. Cons: When we got there, a smoke detector was chirping. The ice maker in the main refrigerator was disgusting (I opened it up when it got jammed),so we used the ice from ice trays in the second refrigerator, the second refrigerator wouldn’t get very cold, the inner side back doorknob on the ground floor came off when simply trying to close the door from the inside.Pros: the beds and couch were comfy, pillows were great, location is away from the hustle & bustle of the north end of the island, traffic wasn’t bad on the south end of the island, it was a bit of a walk out to the water but the shelling was good. Being at the end of the island it felt like we were on a private beach with only a handful of people other than my family.

A very beautiful house that is very well equipped. Everything was very clean. Above all, the location is unique. The view was fascinating every day. If we had any problems, the team helped us quickly.

Nice out of the crowded areas on south end of Estero Blv. Had a nice time even though the water quality was poor. It is peaceful when the bridge construction is done. Great views from the house updated inside. About 300 yards from the water but the whole beach is yours.

Well what can i say the house was great except it needs a little more 2024 in it. Like USB chargers and a few outlets of easy access in and out of house. This house is perfect for bird lovers as the Bird Sanctuary is great but not for me as i had to battle the birds and their friends everytime i wanted to walk. The walk to the beach was not bad at all but what was frustrating was the massive amounts of seaweed that this time of the year we got to the point i could not enjoy my beach access behind the house and the city never once stopped by to clean up the mess. i guess since no one is staying out there renting that not enough complaints come in so they do not care. But overall the house was great for the family and the beds were SUPER comfotable except for the loft bunk beds those things were rough.

The house was lovely. I am sure this is a great place to stay when the weather cooperates. We had severe wind and flooding rain during our entire stay. We would liked to have known that we would have to travel 30+ minutes for any indoor activities. We were provided a list of many outdoor activities by the company however, a list of indoor ideas would have been extremely helpful.
