The Tropical Penthouse, Our Beautiful Family Home, Newly Remodeled 2024
About this condo rental
Located in Sanibel Island, this lovely condo for $452 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. Our Tropical Penthouse is at the end of the second building and affords that extra peace and quiet that you search for when you want to get away from all of the hustle & bustle. I WILL HAVE A NEW TOUR SHOWING THE REMODEL: LVP FLOORING, BRAND NEW KITCHEN WITH UPGRADED APPLIANCES, ETC. NOTE: THE BATHROOMS ARE NEWER: PRISTINE WHITE PORCELAIN WITH OIL-RUBBED BRONZE PLUMBING ACCESSORIES AND A HAND-MADE VANITY FROM INDONESIA IN THE MASTER BATH. THEY WERE NEWLY REMODELED NOVEMBER 2021. We are located on the third floor and occupy a portion of the fourth floor, due to our soaring ceilings, which allow for a more open feeling. There are only a few of these unique penthouses on the entire island! (Actually, there are no high-rise buildings on Sanibel, but these units are fondly referred to as ''penthouses''). The 1,385 square feet are all on a single floor. My unit number is #283. Features: VAULTED CEILINGS, Many Architectural Details, TROPICAL Decor, Glass-Enclosed LANAI with Sliders to capture Ocean Breezes. FULLY-Equipped Kitchen WITH UPGRADED APPLIANCES, W/Dryer. 2 Bedrooms, 2 Full REMODELED Baths, Beds: 1 Queen (Hand-carved), 2 FULL SIZED, Convertible Queen, 2 Dining Areas, Beach Chairs, Cable Satellite, 3 TVs (ONE WITH 47'' FLAT SCREEN-COMCAST HD, DVR), 100s of Channels, 2 DVD PLAYERS, Stereo, CD Player, FREE SECURED WIFI, Outside Elevator Unique Benefits of Our Family Home: Enjoy our deluxe TROPICAL PENTHOUSE. NEWLY REMODELED. We have a private linen/towel service so that everything will be 'hospital-clean' for you. Established island management company attends to your needs. ALL you have to do is RELAX. From our enclosed and beautifully-furnished lanai, you can enjoy a quiet breakfast overlooking the well-manicured courtyard and watch the birds light on the palms, Bougainvillea plants, and lush foliage. And there is a distant view of the beach and ocean. Take the stairs or elevator outside, stroll through the courtyard, pass one of the largest pools on the island (heated), and within a couple of minutes, you will find yourself on the world-renown shelling beach, gazing at the aqua waters with nothing between you and Mexico. Your only decision now is whether to sunbathe, swim or walk--without a care in the world. Later you may want to walk, bike, or ride to local shops & restaurants. Or cross the bridge to find malls, larger grocery stores, movie complexes, and city conveniences. Family Memories at The Tropical Penthouse: Our family purchased this condo in 1974, and we kept it as our special family retreat, affording us an abundance of wonderful memories. We had fun redecorating several times, and always kept the tropical theme. We only began to share our secret and to rent a few years ago. We love to swim out to the buoy, lounge on the beach and read books to each other, bird and people watch, and bike 27 miles on safe bike trails. We go to Captiva, have a Starbucks soy milk and bike back again. We kayak, dance and dine at elegant restaurants as well as eat out at the casual restaurants, shop at Periwinkle Place, eat homemade ice cream at Pinocchio's, watch a sunset on the beach, and take romantic walks. Sometimes we even relax and fall asleep on the beautifully hand-carved bed with the comfy mattress, while ocean breezes surround us. We breathe deeply and sleep soundly. We are in our Tropical Paradise! About Us: I was a ballerina and later had a career in sales/marketing for a fortune 500 company. My husband was a nuclear chemist. We are now both retired, and we return several times a year to enjoy our beautiful, tropical home. Although we have visited many resorts around the world, we have found that we love our Sanibel home the best! We hope that you will have a chance to enjoy our home and island as much as we do! We want you to feel like honored guests in our home. We will be available to help you as much as possible. But since we are a state away, we have employed a well-established management/rental company to have your keys waiting for you, to answer any questions, and to just be on hand to make sure that everything is running smoothly & that you having the perfect vacation at our special get-away Of course we love The Tropical Penthouse. It is our family home. But we hope that you will read our reviews to learn how much our other guests have loved our family retreat also.

Great condos. The pool is large and very nice. Very close to the beach which is beautiful. They have two tennis/pickleball courts, two shuffle board courts and a nice grilling station. The grounds are well kept and beautiful. We are renting there again next year. Would recommend this place.

Clean, and well lit bathrooms looked like new. Enjoyed the Lanai. Everything I needed in bath room and bed was comfortable. Owner checked in to make sure everything was good and I appreciated that. Nice to have beach chairs and shelling equipment. Very quiet, no one above unit. very spacious with high ceilings. Kitchen met my needs as well.

Loggerhead Cay was a wonderful experience. It was our first venture to Sanibel Island, but it won't be our last. The condo was comfortable, cute, and very conveniently located to the beach, pool, and shopping. We were able to enjoy the island by leisurely and healthy excursions on foot and by bike pedal-power.
Owner, June, and everyone we met, was so accommodating and helpful. It was a relaxing and happy vacation! In fact, we were definitely considering our next vacation even before we left the island. Thanks for helping us relieve stress and start 2022, with a positive outlook.

Loved this condo! Spacious and very comfortable in a wonderful setting with ocean view. The condo complex was beautiful with easy access to major sites and restaurants. The lanai was such a pleasant area for eating and relaxing. The owner, June, was responsive and delightful. Couldn’t have picked a better place for this magical island. Highly recommend.

We were finally able to come to Sanibel again (travel restrictions lifted) and were pleased with how well the condo met our needs.
The kitchen had all the equipment we needed and the room arrangement allowed the late risers to have their sleep undisturbed by the early risers. The beach was just a few minute walk away and we found that playing shuffleboard was a great afternoon activity..

We absolutely loved our stay. The condo was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen has everything you need to bring your own food and cook it there which is nice during these covid times. The lanai was a great surprise. We loved having the glass doors open and enjoy the breeze as we enjoyed our meals. This is a very spacious 2 bedroom condo allowing us all to spread out. The walk to the beach was easy.
