About this property

Captain Ed's Cottage at Palmview Inn of Sanibel

Summary:
Open for reservations for the first time since undergoing a complete renovation including new kitchen with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, renovated bathroom with walk-in shower, coastal furnishings and modern finishes. This beautifully appointed studio cottage features a king bed, a sleeper sofa, a full bathroom and a comprehensive kitchenette featuring a fully equipped inventory. Walk or bike to beaches, dining and shopping.

The Space:
Captain Ed's is one of 6 cottages within the historic Palmview of Sanibel, each one beautifully appointed with a distinct theme. The Palmview Inn offers vibrant fully equipped cottages within walking distance to Sanibel’s famous shelling beaches and the Gulf of Mexico. Complimentary adult bikes and beach equipment are provided to explore the nearby bike paths, or to enjoy a day at the beach full of fun under the sun.

We are pet friendly for up to two dogs up to 50lbs each. There is a $50 per dog fee that will be collected from you upon booking or invoiced to you immediately following booking using a payment link.

City of Sanibel Business Tax Receipt Number - SHOM-003384

Guest Access:
Guests enjoy free access to our Gigabit mesh internet service, bikes, beach gear, grill and cooking area as well as a communal laundry room. Experience beautiful, lush grounds with colorful vegetation and multiple outdoor private seating areas, including a Tiki hut, hammock, and dining tables with large shades.

The Neighborhood:
The cottage is situated on the desirable East End of Sanibel, which is equidistant to almost every sought after beach on Sanibel. You will be near restaurants, shopping, and activity, while still far enough removed to be reminded that you are on vacation and provided ample opportunity to socially distance away from the hustle bustle that can characterize island life. This location is also advantageous in that it provides quick on and off access to the causeway, as to allow guests a quick commute into and from Fort Myers without having to contest with seasonal traffic.

Other Things to Note:
Guests must complete rental agreement prior to the stay

Interaction with Guests:
We are available on site for any needs the guest may have, large or small

Perfect Location!

We booked to stay and celebrate our 20th Anniversary and it was just perfect! It was a very easy walk to the beach and if you didn't want to walk there were bikes to use. The grounds around the cottage was clean and very nicely done.

Our Stay

Great location. Could ride bike or walk to beach and periwinkle dr. The food at all the restaurants was outstanding. Even though this island was still in recovery there were lots of businesses open. Beds were very comfortable and everything we needed was in our condo.

A clean, comfortable and convenient place to stay, close to the beach and popular sites

Everything was what we looked for except our interaction with the people who oversee the property was minimal.

Cute room, no wi-fi

The room was cute and the location was excellent. They have some beach equipment that you can use. Unfortunately the wifi didn’t work and the staff brought a hotspot that did nothing.
