Spoonbill is a 3-minute walk to the beautiful Gulf of Mexico waves. No need to drive or bike - just slip your sandals on and head out the door with a cool drink and a beach chair! This bright and tropical home is the perfect place for an extended vacation for a larger group, with two separate living areas for privacy. It is centrally located for easy on-off island access and walkable amenities, but on a peaceful, little-used shell road - no through traffic. Dog-friendly, too! Sorry, no cats (due to owner allergies).
Enter into the casual family room with handmade driftwood dining table, comfortable couch, oversized chair and flat screen TV. The well-stocked galley kitchen with glass tiles and butcher block countertops has everything you need for a great meal. Use the bonus dining room with bar top table for game night or additional dinner seating. The master bedroom has a queen bed and a remodeled master bathroom with a newly tiled shower/tub combo and new hard surface vanity. The second bedroom has sliding glass doors out onto the beautiful shaded balcony, queen bed, and just outside the door a bathroom with a tiled shower/tub combo. The guest room is perfect for kids with a twin bed and a twin-over-full bunk bed, as well as doors to the shared balcony. The guest bath also has a tiled shower/tub combo. Spoonbill has high speed Internet and Wi-Fi as well as a washer and dryer.
Head upstairs for a separate living area: one more queen bedroom, a bathroom with walk-in shower, and living room with convertible futons for extra sleeping space, plus a kitchenette/wet bar. The upstairs living room has a balcony with beautiful views, smart TV and a computer desk. Mix your favorite tropical cocktails at the tiled wet-bar (which includes a small refrigerator, coffee maker and microwave), then step out onto the deck to catch a breeze amid the peaceful, private tropical views.
Spoonbill is located on a crushed shell road that rarely sees any cars, in a low key residential neighborhood. This means quiet nights to enjoy the stars and the sounds of the surf. Also, from time to time we do have potential tenants we would like to show the home to. When this happens we will notify you in advance to make sure the timing works for you. Your satisfaction is our top priority! This home is ideal for a large family or multiple families looking for a laid-back Sanibel vacation with easy access to both the beach and to all of the Sanibel shopping and dining options.
