Luxury Sanibel Gulf Front Condo - Weekly Rental!
White Sands #13
2311 West Gulf Drive,
Sanibel Island, Florida
White Sands condominium is located on West Gulf Drive in the middle of
Sanibel Island, Florida, close to Tarpon Bay Road.
White Sands is an exclusive condominium complex with only 14 units sitting on three beautiful private acres directly
on the Gulf of Mexico. Guests at White Sands enjoy the use of our large private heated pool, private
tennis court, and gas grills that are on the property, as well as the the incredible white sand
beaches that Sanibel is known for.
This condo is our family vacation home on Sanibel Island, Florida and we offer
it for rent to others. It is a direct Gulf front condo in a small complex with only 13 other condos,
so it is very exclusive and private. Our condo has 2 full bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a den with quality sleeper sofa
that makes sleeping six very comfortable. We continually upgrade the unit to keep it nice for our
family and guests. You can e-mail us at dculstad@aol.com or call us at (614) 792-2593 to
check availability or make a reservation. The rental rate varies by season, and discounts are available for
multi-week rentals or last minute rentals. Call or e-mail for current rates.
Our condo is a direct Gulf front unit. The view from our unit is direct out to the Gulf,
overlooking beautiful natural vegetation of seagrapes, sea oats, and palms.
Our primary view is over the vegetation and beach straight out to the Gulf, where warm waters wash up
on Sanibel's 15.5 miles of beautiful beach.
Sanibel Island is a great place for a beach vacation. The beaches are wide and
natural, and they are sprinkled with seashells that Sanibel is known for worldwide.
While looking for unique shells you can walk 14 miles of uninterrupted Gulf of Mexico
beach. The warm gulf waters are seldom rough, and the water depth increases gradually
from the beach providing a large swimming area and discouraging boats from coming in too close
to swimmers. There are no undertow's or riptides to worry about in these calm Gulf waters.
Besides the beach, take advantage of White Sands private tennis court and heated pool. There is little
chance of them ever being crowded since you're only sharing them
with the 13 other condos in White Sands! Explore the island
on the 23 miles of
bike paths, part of
which is right infront of White Sands. We generally have bikes for your use in the ground floor storage unit for our condo.
For more information on all the things to do on Sanibel and Captiva, click on this link
for our own webpage that will give you many more details on activities such as: learning about nature, island history, cultural, nightlife,
shopping, golfing, etc. on Sanibel and Captiva.
Sanibel is a coastal barrier island, located just off the coast of Fort Myers, Florida. There are many things that make
Sanibel unique and reminiscent of old Florida - there are no traffic lights, neon lights, or tall buildings on the island.
The formation of the J.N. "Ding" Darling Wildlife refuge over half a century ago
set the stage for the stringent building and zoning codes that have allowed the island to develop
with modern conveniences while preserving a very natural appearance.
The Fort Myers airport is less than an hour away, and it is serviced
by many major airlines. The Cape Coral airport is another 20 minutes further and is served by some additional airlines.
There are plenty of great
restaurants on Sanibel and Captiva Islands.
