Island Beach Club #220C

Review Date: 08/10/2021

Overall the property was well maintained and well equipped for our needs. The unit is a closed walk to the beach and it comes equipped with all the toys you need, chairs, umbrellas and bikes to tour the island bike trails. It has nice views of the beach as well. Is dog friendly, our pups had a great time, so for us dog lovers that is a plus. The property managing company was easy to deal with. It provided us with clear instructions for the stay, arrival and departure, and the few questions that I had were quickly answered. Overall we all had pleasant stay a this property. - Jose L.

The two bedroom condo was very comfortable and clean. Needed to contact the management company regarding beach chairs since a couple were broken. They responded very quick and supplied all new. Nice ocean view from condo and lots of peace and quiet during the stay. Would recommend this condo and I would stay again. - John T., Strongsville, OH

220C is less than a minute walk to the sand beach. The view of the ocean from the unit is outstanding. Very clean and well-equipped kitchen. Owner great to work with. We enjoyed the pool, which was warm enough to swim in every day of our visit (in January). Close enough to ride bikes to Bailey's for groceries and to Periwinkle restaurants and shops.

We enjoyed our week at IBC 220C and made plans to return to the unit next year. Our owner called to make sure all was well. Even the partial view of the Gulf was good, though a more industrious person could walk one minute and be on the beach to see the sunrise or sunset. IBC has many repeat customers, like our entourage which included a four legged friend; these guests are extremely friendly people. Actually there were quite a few owners who used their units during our week. Our unit was clean and had excellent storage. The size is very good. The showers are great, the bathroom sink area space was spare. The laundry room was well stocked and included coolers and extra supplies. We did not try the bicycles, but the unit has them for the guests to use. I personally like lots of very large coffee cups, but that issue aside, the dishes and silverware were fine, and the kitchen equipment was more than adequate. IBC is very well situated on West Gulf Drive, and easily accessible to Casa Ybel and Tarpon Bay roads; in no time we were at Over Easy, the Island Cow, Doc Ford's or Bailey's. Importantly the green space is very dog friendly. Select Vacation was very responsive to minor issues which arose during the week. Our dachshund Oskar pawed us until we signed up for next year. We knew when we were licked. IBC 220C--see you next year! - Lloyd M., Miami, FL

Svp and IBC never disappoint. Our reservation details and paperwork were seamless once again. We were so excited to find a 'dog friendly' condo and were thrilled to have such a wonderful condo and complex greet us upon arrival. The complex grounds and pool are beautiful and meticulously maintained. The unit 220C is so very welcoming and is appointed with all 'the necessities' one might need for a relaxing vacation-but not too much to take care of. Beautiful 'Florida style furniture', well-stocked kitchen, extra linens, beach toys, a perfect view of the Gulf from your own lanai-(Gorgeous in the am and stunning sunsets at night!)great patio furniture, washer and dryer, short walk to beach, and an elevator , are just some of what awaits you at Island Beach Club-all are there to help you have a perfect time on vacation. This complex is close to all the 'must-see' spots on Sanibel Island, groceries, and shopping. The owners even provided bikes for our use-no better way to explore this glorious island. We were so happy to have met the owners while we were there-D and H are SO friendly, kind beyond measure, and fun-they shared insights from their own experiences to help us enjoy our time more. We definitely will return for another 'adventure in paradise! - Sue S., Minnetonka, Mn

The apt was lovely, bright, airy and spacious. Great view of the palm trees and Gulf of Mex. from the super large windows of the living room and the lanai-balcony. Owners Howard and Donna were super helpful and gave good tips where to eat and what to see and do. Driving distance to all of our activities was no more than 20 minutes. The 1 minute walk to the beach with its great shell gathering was super as well as the magnificent sun sets. It was a great vacation that we plan to - Marty B., Pleasant Valley, NY

This is our escape from brutal north east winters. 220C Island Beach Club just knocks it out of the park. Less than 100 steps from the beach, with a glorious view of the gulf across manicured lawns, this is a perfect place to unwind. Unit is immaculate. Bikes and beach chairs await you. This is a sanctuary island and the long winding walking/path is directly across the street. Two groceries within 5 minutes and restaurants galore.

We just returned from another vacation on Sanibel Island. This was our second visit to the island but our first stay at Island Beach Club. We chose to stay in this complex since it is the only place that allows large dogs. I was so impressed not only by the cleanliness and overall accommodations at the condo but also the location. We could bike to almost all of the restaurants and to the nature preserve. The beach in front of the condo was uncrowded, quiet and beautiful. Also, lucky us, the storage unit was filled with beach chairs, floats and bikes! This is definitely the only place we will stay for future trips. I highly reccommend Island Beach Club and Pristine Properties. They were so nice and very easy to work with. - Anonymous, Decatur, Ga

This unit has an excellent view through floor to ceiling windows and the floorplan was most convenient. Island Beach Club is a wonderful choice if you want to bring your dog. The beach is dog friendly and other guests seemed to enjoy my poodle. I felt very welcome as I walked my dog and many people wanted to pet her. Over Easy is a good dining choice close to the condo and it is dog friendly. The unit has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. Choose Sanibel. You will not be disappointed. - Anonymous, ,

The unit was spacious, CLEAN, and in a great location. We loved the beach in the evening and enjoyed the pool in the afternoon. The shuffle board court was a fun activity for the kids while dad grilled dinner. The unit had a dated kitchen and bathrooms but functional. Would have appreciated some kitchen basics like sugar and cooking oil but not a problem. Rode bikes provided to Bailey's to shop. The beach supplies and bikes were handy to have though there were only four thin beach towels provided. A dirty bathroom screen that I washed in the huge laundry sink was the only thing I cleaned when I arrived (clean freak). Comfortable beds, nice breeze so we never used the AC even with 80 degree days. The access to the unit requires some walking. - Lisa S., Empire, MI

Good location, view, and large lanai. Size of lanai was a little spoiled because it was messy (dirty), plus failed to provide any kind of lounger. I strongly suggest that the owners provide a good sturdy lounger of some kind outside. Maybe it's because pet owners have their dogs play in that space - but we
are not dog owners.
Only other negative would be lack of large beach towels. Otherwise clean and acceptable.
A huge plus was the fact of the adult bikes - they were ridden regularly - thank you for them - Anonymous, Toronto, ON

Island Beach Club is a great property for kids and dogs. There is so much grass, common area and space for everyone to relax. The trees are wonderful.

The large laundry room and big TVs were a big plus. Furnishings were "90s beachy" theme. Thanks for all the extra towels and beach towels! We will be back next year! - Anonymous, Charlotte, NC

Wonderful vacation... Condo was clean and very comfortable. The island was a wonderful get a way from the real world. The property description is right on as to amenities and location to the beach. Got a wonderful call from the owner and enjoyed talking to them about things to do on the island. I would recommend this property to anyone! The boys in our family enjoyed deep sea fishing with Southern Instinct Charter, The boys had fun with Captain Ryan and caught a 30+ lb. permit! Would highly recommend Doc. Ford's for seafood, The Pecking Order for great fried chicken and the Harlem special, Island Piez for pizza and wings, and Schnapper's for really good hot dogs and burgers (grilled on a real grill!). You don't have to leave the island for anything- the condo's just a short bike away from Bailey's for all your grocery needs...

We enjoyed our yearly get away for two weeks. The condo was neat and clean when we arrived after a long drive. The location is easy to find with a limited view of the gulf. It is very easy to unpack and take our things up to the room with a grocery buggy available. We are on the second floor, but have use of an elevator as well as the stairs. We love this location because we're not far from Bailey's grocery store which has a lot of items that are needed for meals. Of course we enjoy the many restaurants and selection of foods to try. We will come again next year and stay in the same location. - Anonymous, Hernando, FL
