Great location in Sanibel
Very clean, nicely decorated, roomy, comfortable bed and pillows, basic necessities, beach towels, beach chairs and collapsible beach wagon. Great location to Bowman’s Beach and the best shelling beaches. Would stay with them again.

Not able to go due to hurricane and property damage.. no refund or credit!
We were unable to use our rental because it suffered damage from the most recent hurricane. I reached out to the host, Breakaway Vacation properties, not to request a refund, but to ask for a credit to use at the same property once it was repaired: I was told that the rental company does not issue any credit based on the contract. We are now out over 1000.00 We were unable to take our vacation , and lost a lot of money. I understand that Sanibel island was devastated by the storm.. I was not expecting g s refund.. just little curtesy . I will book at hotels from now on where I k ow a refund is guaranteed due to severe weather events. I will never book through VRBO again .

A nice shell washing station is on site. there are plenty of bicycles for available for use as well as shelling equipment. The beach is just 3 min bike ride away. The neighborhood is quite and very clean. This is our second stay at this location and would love to stay there again!

Disliked: Cleanliness
To many things were wrong.
At first glance the property seemed good, then one thing after another went wrong. All the dishes and silverware were put away dirty. The oven didn’t work. A/c wasn’t cooling well. One in the bedroom would shut off randomly. No hot water in the second bathroom and ants in the first bathroom. I called the emergency line for the property manager and was told they would call for someone to come and fix the air, no one came the first night and I had to call again the next day for help. They sent maintenance and said the problem was resolved but it wasn’t. All in all a very disappointing stay.

Fantastic!! Highly Recommend!
We absolutely loved this cottage. It was super cute, and very charming. We especially loved the location, and the beach parking/access tag! Would definitely stay here again, and would highly recommend. My kids (2 & 4) loved chasing all of the lizards and we loved that it was not right on the street so they could play!

Great little cottage
Enjoyed our stay in 1 Heron. Quiet, clean cottage only about 1/4 mile walk or bike ride to the beach. Enjoyed using the bikes to do some geocaching and exploring the island. Only a couple of miles from the Ding Darling Wildlife Refuge. Enjoyed a drive through and also rode our bikes there. Also recommend the evening cruise with Tarpon Bay Explorers. And give Captain Andy a call to set up a private fishing charter!

We enjoyed our stay, and would stay here again. We felt that the place needed painting and a few updates, but it was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed.

Cute cottage
Nice place, good location, minor annoyances like a broken screen door and coffee filters that were not the right size. Staff were very friendly and communication was good.
