We stayed at E-5, wonderfully larger than the photo's had us believe property. Well kept; green (not brown), owner controlled, not a rental free for all. If you want a right on the beach, family orientated vacation, this is it. Nuff said

VIP Rentals handled our stay for the owner of the unit we stayed in. Everything was exactly like they offered. Of course the views were outstanding. The unit was very spacious and supplied with everything we needed even beach chairs. It was just like home bit we don't have the beach out our door at home. Thanks VIP

We rented E25 from vrbo and the owner contracts with Royal Shell. Pointe Santo complex was great. Nice pool but a small pool, great beach with vollyball net & chairs. Childrens activities and a clubhouse. The children's activities director was great and very nice to our son. The unit had comfortable beds and linens. Good supply of towels and kitchen... More

We rented directly from Owner via VRBO, but they use Royal Shell for management. The condo is 2 bedroom with a den and beautifully decorated and updated...one of the nicest units at pointe santo. The Owner is to be commended! The management leaves something to be desired. Many maintenance issues and very poor inspector (if any). We are in the... More

Per our agreement with the owner, Royal Shell does not provide the housekeeping or maintenance services for this property. However, the owner as well as Royal Shell will attend to any deficiencies that are reported to us in a timely manner. A review of past guest comment cards show all very good remarks with nothing negative. We apologize for any... More

Great place to stay however do not rent unit B4, the bed is like sleeping on a rock, the unit is not updated the walls were in need of painting, dishwasher didn't clean well but my sister n law rented B33 & it was fabulous! I'm sure we will be back again but will search for a nicer unit.

This year was our third straight year renting from Simply Sanibel. It was our first time staying in C-35, and having a three bedroom was wonderful. The condo has all the comforts of home which makes traveling with young children a breeze! The unit is impeccably maintained. The unit's kitchen is beautifully updated with granite countertops and the deep tub... More

This was our second stay at Pointe Santo de Sanibel and our first stay in C-35. We rented C-35 through VRBO and were very satisfied with the excellent customer service that the owner/manager provided. Pointe Santo de Sanibel is a beautiful resort that is very family-oriented. Unit's are individually owned and managed by either the owner or by a rental... More

This was our first time on Sanibel Island and we are hooked! E-26 was tastefully decorated, well stocked including beach chairs, water toys, kitchen tools and beach towels. The kitchen is newly remodeled with granite counter tops. They even had an Aero bed which came in handy since the couch bed wasn't very comfortable. Pointe Santo itself is beautiful with... More
