We had a great stay at Sanibel Moorings Unit 841. This was one of the larger rental condos we've ever vacationed in. The kitchen is huge, tons of counterspace, fancy fridge - the only downside is now my kitchen feels small and old in comparison! The screened in porch is a great feature. The huge sliding doors make it feel like a seamless part of the living room, and we left them open any time we were there and awake. We also left the bedroom windows open. Despite being close to the road, we were not bothered by traffic noise. We also could barely see the road with all the greenery outside the windows. The pool was close and we were not bothered by not being in one of the units closer to the beach. This was a great place to stay with kids. SM's beachfront has a sandbar just offshore, creating almost a wading pool at high tide. And at low tide we loved hopping onto the sandbar (literally one step in places) and looking for shells, giving the kids a huge unique expanse to run around, etc. The ocean stays shallow far out past the sandbar. The waves were so calm most days that even the most ocean-timid kids will feel safe. Dolphins were playing just offshore several days of our stay. We saw rays, ospreys, crabs, sea stars, live conchs and clams, and so many other birds. We rented a shade tent which helped for the days we did not get to the beach on time to nab an umbrella, but there were always enough chairs. FYI, each pool has a daily adult swim hour so plan your pool time around that. Also FYI as to #841, there is a honeybee hive nearby so you may encounter a few bees coming in and out of the porch. And finally my kids LOVED all the tiny lizards everywhere. I am already recommending Sanibel Moorings to friends and trying to figure out when we can make it back.
