Sanibel Vacay

Just what we expected, great! Our condo was beautiful. It had everything we needed. Steve was a perfect host.Even with all the rain we still enjoyed our trip. We loved The Magic Bus. Great latte’s, ice cream & smoothies! We went several times! Jerry’s grocery always everything we need. And Doc Ford’s was delicious! We rented bikes and were able to get several rides in before & after the rain. We can’t wait to return to see more progress on our fave island. Thank you Steve & Wanda for your beautiful condo!

Sanibel sanity

Accommodations were new, clean, as advertised, and perfect for the two us. Location was right on the gulf and easy to get to. Plenty of things to do in Sanibel and Ft Meyers. The island is still recovering from the 2022 hurricane but many/most of the businesses are open and eagerly accepting vacationers. Very friendly. We recommend this unit and would gladly return if circumstances permit. Thank you Steve and Wanda.

Perfect for families

We just returned from our trip to Sanibel and we loved everything about it! The condo has a great location, it is completely remodeled, very clean and beautifully decorated. The ground level allows to leave the condo through patio with all the beach stuff. We appreciate that the owners provide beach umbrella, wagon and other beach accessories and kids toys. Steve was very nice when we communicated the details, he was very friendly and offered tips about the island and responded in a timely manner. Kitchen and the whole condo was equipped with everything we needed. The grounds looked very well maintained and clean, pool and bathrooms were conveniently located near the beach, beach access was just a short walk and the beach itself was beautiful and clean. There were so many beautiful shells to pick. We are definitely planning to come back.

Nice spaces

The condo was well equipped (aside from the refrigerator issues- new one installed last day but had 2 small fridges to use. Most negative issue was the ice availability and having to use coolers for beverages with only 2 people it was ok. The owner communicated well regarding the fridge and initial check that everything else was satisfactory ), clean and beds are very comfy. Lots of beach supplies (the cart was awesome for the beach/pool). Would definitely recommend.

Fabulous

Property was exactly as described; new, comfortable furniture, clean, organized, supplied with little extras, excellent internet/tv package. Lovely linens, bathroom and beach towels. Location central and easy to get around. Everything you could possibly want for the beach was provided. Owner was super responsive, addressed any question asap, cooperative, and reliable. It was a true pleasure staying in Steve’s condo!

Fabulous time at Loggerhead Cay

Just returned from a week at Steve's place on Sanibel Island. The unit has everything you could want or need in a condo--comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen, everything you need for the beach and enough room to spread out if you bring kids. It is well located on the island, close to shops and right on the beach. I've been going to Sanibel for 20 years, and I must say that Steve is the most friendly and considerate host I've encountered. Hoping to stay the next time I go south.

Absolutely amazing property. Booking was easy and hosts were so kind and very easy to work with. They reached out during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. The condo was clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect! Loved that the beach access was steps away and many restaurants/shops were within biking distance.

Happy Place.

Sanibel has been my happy place for many years and it was wonderful being back. This unit at Loggerhead Cay couldn't be more perfect-short walk to beach& pool and close to all the shops, bike trails, animal refuge, restaurants that are now reopened post Hurricane Ian. The owners were so attentive and helpful, including bringing us an umbrella to go to the Farmers Market on a rainy day and checking to make sure we had everything we needed. Just wish that my stay was longer than the two great weeks we enjoyed.

Hurricane Ian

We had a great 3.5 days before Hurricane Ian hit. We had to leave the island but the owner was so great to contact us before our trip and during to update us on the hurricane. He even refunded us for the days we weren’t able to stay. The aftermath is so heartbreaking but hopefully people can rebuild. We love this place!

Mitchell Review

Clean and fully equiped with pots , pans, cooking utensils , beach equipment etc.. I liked that cleaning supplies were available so that we could clean up after ourselves. A little concerned staying on the first floor of this condo but absolutely no problems.. Ued the grilling area conveniently located as well as the pool. I have friends who visit Sanibel -Captiva and recommended your unit.. Would most definately stay in your unit again.. We also left paper supplies behind to help out with the next group coming in.

Great Flat

Nice, clean spacious and very well equipped flat. It’s lovely that the owner provides for beach towels especially as we came by plane. The owner is very helpful, sympathetic and gives you a lot of information about Sanibel. The pool is big and beach access to the long beautiful beach is definitely a bonus. We’ll recommend the flat to Swiss friends for sure. We had a great time.

First Trip to Sanibel

This was my family’s first trip to Sanibel and we loved the island, especially this condo! It was an awesome first floor condo which was perfect when we came in from the beach, we were able to leave all of our beach gear right on the porch. The condo was was extremely spacious, clean, and was by far the best stocked condo we have ever stayed sun. From the kitchen, the bathrooms, and ALL OF THE BEACH GEAR!!!! They had chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, toys, and an amazing beach cart. We are already looking at returning next year and if it’s available, we will be definitely staying at this condo again!

About the host

Hosted by Steve and Wanda McAllister

We have been coming to Sanibel for over 20 years, and simply love it. We made the annual (sometimes twice) trek from our home in Ohio. Our first stay at Loggerhead Cay was in February, 2017. It is by far our favorite resort, our best stay! We closed on our condo on May 1, 2017.

The grounds are extremely well kept, the walks and parking lots are pavers, the pool is in a beautiful setting surrounded by palms. The beach is a very short walk, no streets to cross. Every amenity is well done, tops. The Condo Association board maintains tight standards, which keeps Loggerhead Cay highly desirable.

Why they chose this property

Aside from being first class in every respect, the access to Loggerhead Cay avoids to heavy traffic on Periwinkle. You simply cross Periwinkle, head straight for the gulf beach, and one right turn gets you to Loggerhead Cay.

What makes this property unique

If you are into relaxing on the beach or around the pool, you found the right place! Loggerhead is extremely well kept, a short drive to several great restaurants and shopping.
