We live the privacy, the pool, the beach, and the 3 bedrooms, 2 baths. Beds are comfortable and kitchen is well stocked with what we needed to cook. Would love to see some new living room furniture when we come back (for 2 weeks), in 2022. Unit is clean and live the screened in lanai.

It’s very large so lots of room to spread out. We spent a lot of time on the huge screened in lanai with the gorgeous view. The pool was refreshing. The beach was amazing. We love the east end location because the lighthouse and the pier are both walkable as well as our favorite Lighthouse cafe.

Was able to eat in with no problem and able to find private space for everyone. Made constant use of the lanai. Had four adults and two small children. Rented bikes to have at the condo and made several trips to ice cream, other beaches and even the Farmer’s Market. The condo location was close enough to walk to lighthouse on the beach. Pool was never crowded or loud. Best surprise was the utility closet below stocked with beach gear and pool toys for the kids. Only downside was the master bedroom mattress which is overdue to be replaced. But overall a lovely place to vacation.

Nice patio furniture especially the rocking chairs. Plenty of furnishings in the unit to eat/cook at home daily and plenty of seating for family/guests in the dining & living rooms as well. Unit stays cold, has a great view and easy access to the beach/pool, can’t really ask for more! Grounds are well kept, pool is deep (not many places go past 6’). Would certainly recommend to anyone who’s looking. Sanibel Holiday has probably been the best agent we’ve worked with so far, very friendly & accomodating.

Upon arrival, everything was smoothly communicated with no issues. Our vacation couldn’t have been better, if we tried! Not a single thing was missing, and we booked again for next year before leaving!

This increase drives up the cost to insure the trip as well as Florida occupancy taxes. The magnitude of this increase is usurious and unjustifiable as there were no property improvements for 2021-2022 season.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Bandy Beach Association is a very small, very quiet beachfront condo association. This unit (though given the number A101) occupies all of the second floor of this building, so it is filled with light from all sides. It also feels very private--with no other unit right next to you. The lanai is very large, with a dining table that will seat 8. The unit is well decorated--avoiding the overly cute beachy look. Like many condo rentals on Sanibel, you'll need to provide your own spices, coffee filters, etc., though there were several keurig coffee singles available in the keurig machine. (There's also a regular coffee pot.) Though the kitchen layout is somewhat awkward, the unit is spacious and good for a multi-generational family vacation. We will be returning.

I had read past reviews about the comfort of the beds but it appears they added padding to the tops of the beds so they were comfortable enough for us. Very easy access to the beach however I was a bit disappointed with the view of the beach.

Being just steps away from the beach and not far from the lighthouse allowed for daily walks on the beach and many fun finds by and in the water. Going in September we experienced a few places closed for renovations and cleanup before the rush of high season but with mostly locals on the island we didn’t have long waits anywhere and little traffic. Weather was warm but with beach and pool it made for a great hang week with friends. Our unit had everything we needed to cook in, relax inside or sit outside snd enjoy the view and summer air. We basically had the pool and complex to ourselves, based on time of year. Fortunately, we experienced none of the negatives that we could have going in September. Great week.

The only problems we had were the sugar ants and the kitchen not having certain things.

The property and location were great. We loved the closeness to the beach and the pool. The condo was very well stocked and had everything that we needed. The only issue we had were the beds- they were not the most comfortable and definitely needs updated. We knew this going in because of all the comments made by other guest. We all agreed we would come back!

The furniture was comfortable and the condo was clean. We enjoyed relaxing on the beach and poolside and eating dinners on the large screened in porch. We would definitely come back to this property again!

We rented this 3 bed, condo for a week and it was a huge upgrade compared to what we usually rent on the gulf. This very spacious condo was decorated nicely and everything seemed new. It was also spotless, don’t think I found one single hair, and that has never happened to me! Even though we rented at peek season the complex was quiet. We enjoyed the well heated and clean pool everyday and were surprised to find it empty most of those days. The beach was also pretty quiet and definitely clean. We loved that this condo provided beach towels, beach umbrella, toys buckets, a few beach chairs, and two or three loungers for us to use! We enjoyed looking for shells on one of the days as the ocean decided to wash up some good ones and even got to see a dolphin swimming close to shore. The only thing I wasn’t happy with was that the sunset was a little behind some of the neighboring condos (I am a big fan of the sunsets when I’m on vacation in Florida) I believe we were looking southeast at the gulf so in that case we did see sunrises over the city of FortMyers. For a plus though - by facing mostly South, we could be in a great position in our chairs for getting sun while looking out into the gulf for most of the day. I loved how much lush plants and palm trees there were on the property as well as the island! We rented a car for the week but might have been a good idea to rent bicycles as well because the one main road is packed with cars most of the day. There was a quaint little strip businesses one block away that sold wonderful ice cream and bakery, sandwiches, beach gear, clothes, and also a very good cafe that offered dine in or take out. If you are not in love with crowds and care a lot about staying in a beautiful clean and spacious condo and complex, on an amazing island this is the perfect one to rent!

Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time in Sanibel as always. It was our first stay at Bandy Beach, and the condo seemed a little “tired.” The kitchen was okay except for knives that would barely cut butter and an ice maker that was very slow to make ice. First impressions are important, and when my husband and I entered our bedroom (twin beds), we found the closet piled high with extra bedspreads, pillows, and a high chair. We had to clean out the closet before we could even get into it. Also, there were no bedspreads on the beds, giving it an army barracks-like appearance. Perhaps after the cleaning crew has left, a quality control person could come in to see if the condo is truly ready for guests.

Property very nice and very convenient to the beach and east end. You can tell it is a rental machine as the furniture was more worn than the photos show. Second bathroom is very small for sharing of two bedrooms. Also, no photos of the doors because they are 1960’s type luan that you can hear a pin drop from the other side. Master bedroom mattress really should be repaired or replaced with the noises it makes. Outside overhand is great and that furniture is updated. Desirable area if you like quiet. Would rent this property again.

The place was very nice, clean, roomy but....the beds. With such a nice place you can't skimp on the beds. They were very uncomfortable. The first night my wife and I tried the master bed. It was so uncomfortable that we tried just me in the bed and my wife took one of the twin beds. The twins are on wheels so they move about and they are like beds you get when you ask for an extra role out in a motel. That second night was so painful on my back I remember waking 3 times that night trying to stretch my back out in pain. I tried a pillow between my legs, on my back or in a ball and nothing helped. I remember thinking with others soon arriving that I would have to leave for home and give them the other large bed and the 2 twins because there was no way I could handle the bed another night. What eventually happened is that I took the other king size bed where I could get at least 6 hours before back pain, my daughter took the master bed and able to tolerate and my wife and son took the 2 twins. We managed but each night was difficult for everyone. My wife called management about this and they said they would look into it but nothing was done. The beds are spring beds with a thin top layer and squeak. No one in the condo had a good night sleep. This is a nice condo, and sleep is so important so don't skimp on beds when a good night sleep is a big part of a great vacation

Great property!! Steps from beach. Partial beach view. Nice condo. Semi private elevator. Only two things would improve stay....beach chairs/umbrellas for use and better mattress. Overall this has been one of our favorite places to stay on Sanibel. Would love to stay again
