vacation rental description

Come as you are! No worries ~ THIS IS A HASSLE-FREE HOLIDAY AT THE BEACH.   

Picture yourself at a private beach in your own charming cottage. Seagrape Cottage is a tropical home a few 49 steps from beach in a residential community. We're located on the East End of Sanibel Island near Lighthouse Point & the Sanibel Marina. Our two bedroom, one bath cottage is adorable. The full kitchen is great for the cook who enjoys hanging out in the kitchen but still wants to be included where friends are relaxing. Unravel the secret of the lovely seashells of Sanibel Island as you walk down our stony lane to the practically private walkway directly onto the beach. I can pretty much guarantee you'll see dolphins every morning and exotic birds most of the day.  

Full kitchen is equipped with everything you need, Living and Dining room, counter bar and stools, tropical decor. Large enough for a couple to spend time together for a month or more. This is truly a dreamy beach cottage on a splendid little island in the tropics. What more could you desire! On the beach, everything is good....

Pleasant and relaxing ambience. You need bring nothing but yourself. We are on the bike path and a block from small shopping center. Seagrape Cottage is an alternative lifestyle to busy inns or condos.

Friendly & helpful locals are your neighbors. Our last guests went on a boat ride with one of their new friends from this residential street.

When you arrive you will have a special basket of goodies to enjoy -- Our gift to you: begin your holiday at Seagrape Cottage on the sunny shore of Sanibel Island.

Frommer's Rating gave Sanibel Island #! spot out of Ten Best Places to Visit in the World!

Conde Naste and US World & News says Sanibel/Captiva best of ten beaches in the USA

traveler reviews for this sanibel island cottage rental

Florida Escape

Review submitted: May 6, 2013   Date of arrival: March 15, 2013

This was our second year that we returned to Seagrape Cottage. Again it was a wonderful experience. The location is excellent, on a quiet street near the lighthouse. It is in walking distance to grab a good cup of coffee and pastry each morning. The ice cream shop and one of the very good restaurants on the island is also within walking distance. The beach is a short walk from your front door. The cottage has everything you need, just bring your swimsuit and flip flops.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sight seeing, romantic getaway

Owners response: You two are great. We hope we'll see you again & again. It was a pleasure working with you. Thanks so much for your lovely comments. We are very happy that you liked our cottage enough to come back again. It means a lot to us. Best wishes ~

We'll be back

HAC126501 (Burlington, ON)
Review submitted: April 1, 2013   Date of arrival: February 1, 2013

This was the second time we've vacationed at Seagrape Cottage and we'll definitely be back. The location could not be better and we enjoy the privacy of a backyard, the quiet of a residential street and cozy cottage feel of the house itself. We have stayed in other places on Sanibel, but Seagrape just feels like home.

Owners response: It was so cool to have an author stay at our cottage. Being so close to the beach, perhaps the Gulf breeze provided you with inspiration. And maybe Seagrape Cottage was your muse... We know we will see you again and we will welcome you and your husband soon. Thank you for your lovely comments.

Great Place, Great Value

Donna (Grand Island, NY)
Review submitted: March 21, 2013   Date of arrival: January 15, 2013

My husband and I spent two lovely months here and found this cottage to be "just right" for us! So we have already booked it for next year.

We loved the location being on the east end of the island with less traffic, nearby shops and restaurants, the Lighthouse, fishing pier, and of course, the fabulous beach just a short walk away at the end of the street.

The cottage was clean and very comfortable, good beds, well-stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, and airy screened in porch. It was evident that the owners take great care to insure their guests have everything they need. Books, videos, and puzzles for indoor activity, beach towels, chairs and umbrellas for the beach. Not to mention the welcoming bottle of wine when we checked in!

Sanibel Island is such a beautiful place, and we have been coming down during the winter for the past four years. We've looked at lots of rental properties and this place is a really great value. I highly recommend it.

Thanks you, Karyn and Richard, we look forward to coming back next January.

Recommended for: adventure seekers, age 55+, families with young children, sight seeing, romantic getaway

Owners response: Thank you for your beautiful review. We are very excited to welcome you back next year. It's always a pleasure to have people as kind and nice as you two. We don't always get to meet our guests, but lucky for us we had the opportunity and good luck to meet you both. We'll see you next year~ Thanks again.
