Only condo on Sanibel that has no restrictions on dogs. Each unit owner sets terms for rental. Nice surrounding grassy area for walks. Decent outdoor pool, but no other facilities. Units are all the same 2 bed 2 bath model. They vary markedly on interiors. Some owners have done nothing to upgrade their 70's furniture and fixtures. The one we... More

We just left our penthouse paradise at Island Beach Club and can't wait to come back! My family has owned at the complex for 25 plus years and we love the location and amenities. We stayed on the on the penthouse level with our dogs and it was just wonderful. The owners gave us great suggestions to eat and play... More

Our family has been going to Sanibel Island for a summer vacation for over 8 years. It is a fabulous family beach destination for many reasons: shelling, gulf waters, wildlife viewing, quiet place in the summer, and many rental options. We have stayed in several condo developments and inns, but once we found IBC, we never changed. We have stayed... More

This was our first trip to Sanibel, and a fairly new experience with condo rental. Both worked out very well. Condo was booked via Select Vacation Properties. The facility and specific unit were great. Pool was clean, beach access was easy. The unit was nicely furnished, had decent linens, beach towels, good large/small appliances, covered parking, and some beach toys/chairs... More

Won't tell you our unit # for fear that it will be booked when we want it, but this is the closest resort to the beach on Sanibel. No-frills, but everything is clean, the pool is pristine, and if you rent right you can watch the dolphins morning and night from your dining table. Find an owner with a unit... More

Our unit (330C) had an updated kitchen ... very nice. Overall, unit was very clean and compfortable, but carpet is old, stained and needs replacing. Pleasant surprises in storage closed with bikes and other beach paraphenalia. Lots of nice neighbors included some of the live in owners that seem to genuinely enjoy having families around. Only major concern, given that... More

Floor to ceiling sliders on two sides opening to beautiful ocean views with the sound of the waves lulling you to sleep- what's not to like! The location is perfect to see the sunset from the beach and the shelling out front was the best we had seen on the island. The little ones loved the heated pool and the... More

We stayed at 210C and had everything we could need or want. We were right on the beach and when we went to the beach we practically had it to ourselves. Same story with the pool-had it to ourselves! What an awesome view from all around our condo. We could see the gulf from three different rooms and our wrap... More

We stayed in Condo # 310B. It was recently renovated and very clean. Nice full size kitchen, large master bedroom, screened in patio, wood floors, pantry, You have a small view of the water from the living room and you can hear the water at night. Overall, we really enjoyed it.
