Please bear with us! On September 28, 2022, Hurricane Ian, a massive, Category 4 storm slammed into Sanibel with 155mph winds and a 13ft storm surge that swept across Breakers West. Incredibly, our building remained standing, but the ground floor units were destroyed. B-2 and most of the 2nd floor units escaped damage, save for losing our lanai screens and some baluster posts. We, and Sanibel, are both rapidly rebuilding. If all goes well, starting September 1, 2023, we will be welcoming guests to a B-2 and BW that are even more beautiful than before. And due to the destruction next door, we now have gorgeous sightlines to the Gulf. Meanwhile, the shorebirds have returned to Sanibel in record numbers. Restaurants, shops and sites of interest have reopened. New vegetation is sproutin...Please bear with us!

And due to the destruction next door, we now have gorgeous sightlines to the Gulf. Meanwhile, the shorebirds have returned to Sanibel in record numbers. Restaurants, shops and sites of interest have reopened. New vegetation is sprouting everywhere. Roads and bike-hike paths are being restored. As of September 1, you will once again be able to relax in the ambiance of Olde Florida in our comfortable, 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom, 2nd-floor Sanibel condo, located on the Gulf side of quiet West Gulf Drive, just over 100 yards from the Gulf of Mexico and our lovely, quiet beach, which you can access via a convenient beach path. Dolphins frequently swim near-shore; pelicans perform aerial acrobatics as they swoop in for fish. Enjoy morning coffee on the screened-in lanai, overlooking lush landscaping and our private swimming pool. Toast Sanibel's glorious sunsets on our shell-filled Gulf beach. Experience the charm that is Breakers West: a family-friendly, 18-unit complex of mirror-image condos, close to shopping, dining and island adventures, yet quiet and peaceful, a world away from noise and crowds. We're constantly working to "feather the nest" with projects large and small, with frequent additions to the "little niceties," including high-definition cable TV service, high-speed internet with WiFi, 2 flat-screen Samsung TVs, DVDs, board games and puzzles, books, beach chairs and umbrellas. Our well-equipped kitchen has quartz countertops (the breakfast bar doubles as a handy laptop-workstation), electric stove, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, dishes and utensils, pots and pans. Our two bathrooms have quartz countertops, a bathtub in the MBR, a shower in the 2nd bedroom. There is also a landline/VOIP telephone (helpful if you lack cellphone service; calls within the USA are free of charge). Paradise awaits you!

Perfect Sanibel retreat
This amazing couple thought of everything. We didn’t need anything extra and had a wonderfully clean place to stay close to the beach. For convenience, we rented a beach cart for $40 that allowed us to carry the chairs, umbrella, fishing rods, beach bag and snacks in one trip. They were full of recommendations and a pleasure to work with. We plan on booking here on our next trip to Sanibel.

Perfect Cozy Hideaway!
This was the perfect location for a stay on Sanibel Island! Tucked back off the main thoroughfare and surrounded by trees, it's quiet and peaceful! Just a short walk to the beach with chairs and umbrella provided made for a great day at the beach! The shells on the island tend to be picked through but you still find plenty of treasures! With this semi-private beach it's easier to find them! The condo had everything we needed and was very clean!

Comfy condo at Breakers West in Sanibel
This place is just great -- Clean, comfortable, and just a stones throw from beach. Conveniently located on the island near restaurants, large grocery store, and other shops and bike rental place. Owners are accomodating, informative, and kind.

We really enjoyed this condo on Sanibel Island, Florida.
The unit was well equipped and clean. It is in a good location on the island and has easy access to the beach. The owners provided beach towels, chairs, umbrella, etc. for our use. The only thing you really need is a small cooler for drinks and maybe one of those small collapsible wagons to carry everything in. The grounds are well maintained as is the community pool. The owners are very nice and interested in making your stay enjoyable. We would definitely stay there again.

Wonderful and amazing
This condo was perfect and the island was too. The owners are amazing and caring. This was our first trip to Sanibel. The pool was relaxing and the ocean majestic. We will be back and we will stay right at the Breakers West B2.

Wonderful vacation!
We recently stayed at this wonderful condo and have nothing but compliments. The beach is just a few hundred feet away down a secluded path. This condo is well stocked and the owners have clearly thought of everything. From a well supplied kitchen (even a coffee grinder) to board games, puzzles, and even a deck of cards for those times you find yourself indoors. The utility room is also stocked with just about anything you could ever want for the beach (from sand pails and shovels for the kids to fishing gear for dad to beach chairs and umbrella for mom). If you are looking for a place in Sanibel, I recommend this one..

Perfect sunsets with comfortable accommodations in great location
My family of four had a great January getaway at this comfortable condo. We opted to eat in most meals, and found food prep easy in the kitchen, with dinners on the screened in Lanai. Our favorite part was the short walk through the parking lot to the beach for sunning and sunsets. There is no need to travel to a different beach, this one is perfect! We also loved our bike rides to the wildlife refuge near by. Andrew and Susan are caring hosts that were available for any questions we had.

Clean, close to the beach, convenient, and perfect for our family vacation!
The condo is a few short steps away from the beach. The beach is beautiful, has a plethora of unusual shells, and is very clean. Susan and Andrew were quick to respond to communication. Thank you for making a memorable visit to the island.

Map
About the neighbourhood
Breakers West is located mid-island, 4.9 miles west from the Sanibel Causeway exit; on the Gulf side of West Gulf Drive, a quiet residential street, between Tarpon Bay Rd and Rabbit Rd (and yes, they do have bunnies!)a short walk (just over 100 yards) from our condo to our shell-sand beach on the Gulf of Mexico; its western orientation is sunset-perfect. Sanibel restaurants, shops and attractions are easy to reach by car or bike, but a bit too far away to walk to. JN Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge is just on the other end of Rabbit Rd. Most places offer free parking; and most have bicycle-racks. One of the 25 miles of scenic bike-hike paths runs across the street past our building.
Getting around
Sanibel has no public transportation; to get around, one must walk, drive, bike or taxi. One of the best ways to see Sanibel is by bicycle, on 25 miles of bike-hike paths. Breakers West is on West Gulf Drive. The Gulf Drives (East, Middle, West) run parallel to and south of the main road, Periwinkle Way. Most restaurants and shops are on Periwinkle. Tarpon Bay Rd is the quickest route to Periwinkle, the main road. The Gulf Drives are a winding, quieter, more scenic alternative. The National Wildlife Refuge, the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum and CROW Wildlife Rehab are all on San-Cap Rd, the western extension of Periwinkle, and just north of Breakers West. the historic lighthouse is at the eastern tip of Sanibel.
Access
Car advised
How to get there
