Our condo is fully recovered from the hurricanes of 2022 and 2024. A five-minute stroll takes you to Sanibel's famous shelling beach, just across the street from our condo unit. Completely redecorated in ''Sanibel style,'' the unit is beautifully appointed with original art, tile floors, decorator furnishings, a completely renovated master bath, and a kitchen with marble counters and 'high end' appliances. The Sandpebble complex is quiet, intimate, and non-commercial -- just 23 units, most of which are owner occupied. The garden-like grounds run along the Sanibel river, with deck and eating/barbeque areas overlooking the Beachview golf course, across the water. The pleasant pool area has ample lounge chairs and tables. We have an on-island rental agent who can address any questions or problems with a local phone call.
The unit is on the top (4th) floor, with no noises from units above. Our newly appointed lanai is newly tiled and has comfortable chairs for relaxation and an attractive dining area.
We are across the street from the beach, and there is a "peak-a-view" of the gulf from the lanai. From the other side of the condo, you'll see the bird and animal life along the Sanibel River and the golfers moving down the fairway. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the utensils a guest might need to whip up anything from microwave popcorn to a gourmet meal. The spacious living room has flat screen TV with DVD and internet for streaming, stereo with MP3 connection, WiFi , and a small library of cookbooks and books on local activities and the flora and fauna of Sanibel. There are additional television sets in both bedrooms. The unit is equipped with a Bosch dishwasher; coin-operated clothes washers and dryers are conveniently located just downstairs.
Sandpebble is centrally located on Sanibel's network of bike paths -- a short ride to the shops along Periwinke Way, a longer peddle to the wildlife at Ding Darling National Wildlife Preserve, or the Sanibel Recreation Center, with its Olympic swimming pool, gym and weight rooms, lighted tennis courts, and childrens water play area. Whether it's the beaches, parks and wildlife, shopping, or great dining alternatives, you'll find everything Sanibel has to offer close at hand.
A note on recent hurricanes: The island has largely returned to its former self, despite the storms of 2022 and 2024: the beaches are open and beautiful, and most shops and restaurants have reopened. Our unit is on the 4th floor and suffered little direct damage from any of the hurricanes, though some drywall was replaced and we have completely repainted the interior and have installed new window treatments throughout. The pool and deck area, laundry, the elevator and parking areas, the deck overlooking the river are fully functional. Please contact us with any questions.
