Decent outdoor pool, but no other facilities. 220C Island Beach Club just knocks it out of the park. Condo was booked via Select Vacation Properties.The facility and specific unit were great. We loved Sanibel. No cart was provided for transporting groceries, etc to 3rd floor which was quite challenging. IBC has many repeat customers, like our entourage which included a four legged friend; these guests are extremely friendly people. We plan on using the condo again next year. We stayed on the on the penthouse level with our dogs and it was just wonderful. We chose to stay in this complex since it is the only place that allows large dogs.

We will be back next year! 3 decent beach chairs. Pool was clean, beach access was easy. The property management team was really responsive to our two maintenance requests. Sanibel is a wonderful vacation spot with lovely beaches, some of the best shelling in the world, great restaurants in a range of costs and style (check out the Sanibel Steakhouse for great steaks and seafood, Island Cow for fun salads and great breakfasts, Timbers for great seafood, and CheeburgerCheeburger for casual burgers), and fun boating trips. We could bike to almost all of the restaurants and to the nature preserve. This unit represents a wonderful value, and a truly remarkable destination. Positives: the location was great, place was spacious, there was a large outdoor storage closet near the parking space where we could park our rented bikes, the beach umbrella was large and worked really well, even in the wind. On-site staff kept the buildings and grounds in beautiful shape. - John T., Strongsville, OH Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 08/10/2021 Overall the property was well maintained and well equipped for our needs. Ask FloridaMom2012 about Island Beach Club. You will not be disappointed. Would stay again. We also arrived to the unit and found the shower head dangling in the guest bathroom. This unit is in NEED of a maintenance person. Would highly recommend Doc. This is a dog friendly condo for a non-refundable fee (restrictions may apply). Our dachshund Oskar pawed us until we signed up for next year. Which Southwest Florida Beaches are open? The beach is dog friendly and other guests seemed to enjoy my poodle.

The unit 220C is so very welcoming and is appointed with all 'the necessities' one might need for a relaxing vacation-but not too much to take care of.

This is a newly renovated unit, 2 bdrm, 2 bath, wonderfully appointed. We called VIP and they were very responsive. Unit well stocked with everything you need for the beach which is big plus., beach towels, cooler. Comfortable beds, nice breeze so we never used the AC even with 80 degree days.

Island Beach Club #220C is a great condo! - Anonymous, Hernando, FL Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 07/05/2016 Island Beach Club is a great property for kids and dogs. The 1 minute walk to the beach with its great shell gathering was super as well as the magnificent sun sets. We loved the beach in the evening and enjoyed the pool in the afternoon. Each owner could really make an improvement by providing their own WiFi, or IBC could do a better job of improving the range of their condo service. We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your time.Please feel free to call should you like to further discuss or plan your next vacation. All of us REALLY had trouble turning on and off the master bath's sink faucet. It's exactly what you'd expect. more. The location is easy to find with a limited view of the gulf. The location was perfect and the view was amazing! We apprexiated the storage unit with beach toys, chairs, etc. Thank you! Wonderful gulf view from the lanai, as well as the living/dining/kitchen area, which has very big windows.The owner called to introduce himself the day after we arrived, and wanted to take care of anything we found amiss. The amazing thing about these units is that they have TONS of sunshine- the living room/dining area has floor to ceiling windows and sliders. The owner and rental agent were both courteous and helpful. They put cover over it, but need to invest in new upholstery. It provided us with clear instructions for the stay, arrival and departure, and the few questions that I had were quickly answered. It really isn't too much to ask to have clean windows for this rental price..We agree IBC is a great condo complex! It is spacious, well appointed all the important amenities included. Just a short walk to the beach and very accommodating. - Anonymous, Ridgefield, Ct Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 09/03/2015 Can not say enough about this beautiful vacation property. If updated, this unit would be a dream.OUR REVIEW:Date of Stay: March 17-23, 2012Review written: March 24, 2012We just returned from Sanibel yesterday and have been trying to figure out what to say for our review of this unit. Hard to use. This condo is roomy and has the amenities that we like, although it needs more renovation and replacement of appliances. Very well kept. Would have appreciated some kitchen basics like sugar and cooking oil but not a problem. We would highly recommend this property to everyone and anyone interested in coming to the amazing and wonderful Sanibel Island. Beach equipment in non existent. TV is not HD. The unit has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. The showers are great, the bathroom sink area space was spare. Loved walking on the beach each morning watching the sunrises!We were also lucky to have met the owners Howard and Donna.

I couldn't wait to sign up for next year. It sleeps 6, but only had 4 dining chairs in and out so we had to move chairs between the lanai and dining room to seat everyone. The beach was beautiful and only a few steps to the beach! - Diane F., Independence, OH Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 10/19/2020 FANTASTIC - Rich A., Bethlehem, PA Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 01/25/2021 220C is less than a minute walk to the sand beach. Furniture could use some serious updating and/or professional cleaning. Patience Rodriguez The community gas grills were a wonderful surprise. The guest bedroom has 2 twin beds, ceiling fan and is also en-suite with a walk-in shower. Owners Howard and Donna were super helpful and gave good tips where to eat and what to see and do. This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged. I don't think there are many rental units here and the other owners must only visit occasionally. KITCHEN is dismal at best. - Anonymous, Aurora, OH Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Responded on: 03/29/2022 Hi Jean,Thank you for taking the time to write a review regarding your recent stay with us. The view of the ocean from the unit is outstanding. Driving distance to all of our activities was no more than 20 minutes. As far as P1D we think the owner is not adequately maintaing their unit and know they are charging just as much as owners who are providing an updated unit and a better overall experience. Crumbs/dirt on stove and counter, small appliances that most people use on vacation (blender, coffee maker) were dirty. The condition of the unit is very good with the exception of the kitchen which needs remodeling - the owners are planning on doing this soon. Should you need odd day bookings please call Select Vacation Properties CANNOT BOOK MORE THAN A YEAR IN ADVANCE. We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your time.Please feel free to call should you like to further discuss or plan your next vacation. Communication was great and having never been to Sanibel that was very helpful . If there were barstools for the bar that would have helped. It is truly wonderful to be able to vacation and take your furry family members along. Both worked out very well. Something came up and I'd like to change the choice of home I rented for vacation; am I allowed? Would recommend this condo and I would stay again. Many got major renovations after the 2004 hurricanes. Very clean and well-equipped kitchen. The Master bedroom features a king bed, TV, ceiling fan with en-suite bathroom, hairdryer, and tub/shower combination. The condo was neat and clean when we arrived after a long drive. We love this location because we're not far from Bailey's grocery store which has a lot of items that are needed for meals. Even the replaced dishwasher was one of the cheapest models on the market. The laundry room was well stocked and included coolers and extra supplies. Our reservation details and paperwork were seamless once again. The Publix on the mainland isn't that much cheaper. The property description is right on as to amenities and location to the beach. The badly designed and weirdly stuccoed Beach Club exterior is a great camouflage for a perfect spot. Biked all over the island. Beautiful 'Florida style furniture', well-stocked kitchen, extra linens, beach toys, a perfect view of the Gulf from your own lanai-(Gorgeous in the am and stunning sunsets at night! I felt very welcome as I walked my dog and many people wanted to pet her. Enter one or more recipient email addresses separated by commas or spaces. I strongly suggest that the owners provide a good sturdy lounger of some kind outside. We look forward to our next summer visit! The units locked closet by the covered parking was filled with beach chairs, beach toys and bicycles, available for our use. This was our second winter season at IBC F310. We are on the second floor, but have use of an elevator as well as the stairs. Just off the kitchen is a spacious laundry room with a full-size washer/dryer, laundry basket, sink, and drying rack. Nice location on Sanibel but this unit is in the back building by the road. Nice surrounding grassy area for walks. BEAUTIFUL VIEW, BUT VERY WORN OUT. What more could you want? The dishwasher was rusted out on the inside and when we ran the dishwasher our dishes had rust specks all over them and we had to wash dishes by hand. We would love to come again! We found this condo to meet most of our needs, especially with an elevator. It was so great to stay in a place right on the beach with all the amenities of a home. The best on the island we've found in 9 years. Front door inside has a chain lock that I can't even explain how it works. Rode bikes provided to Bailey's to shop. An added plus is that the owner provides bicycles, which are a great way to see Sanibel. Although you get the feeling that many of the condos in this complex are rented out, there are some permenant residents who are not the worlds friendliest creatures. - Anonymous, Davidson, NC Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 04/05/2021 Excellent.our 5th year hereand we'll be back - Kevin and Sallie L., Northampton, MA Massachusetts Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 05/24/2021 Excellent. We knew when we were licked. You simply can't get any better. Review tags are currently only available for English language reviews. It has nice views of the beach as well. This property is pet-friendly with an additional $250.00 pet fee. We were so excited to find a 'dog friendly' condo and were thrilled to have such a wonderful condo and complex greet us upon arrival. We'd love to see you again!All our best,Select Vacation Properties, Review Date: 05/23/2022 We love IBC 220C. We agree with the previous reviewer "stay away" from this unit until some changes are made. This is definitely the only place we will stay for future trips. Even the partial view of the Gulf was good, though a more industrious person could walk one minute and be on the beach to see the sunrise or sunset. Building C faces Westward so you get beach views, sunset views, and a lower price than building D. Units with a "P" in the name are top floor units. - Anonymous, Grosse Pointe Park, MI Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 12/26/2019 Nicely decorated condo.

The unit is very dated especially the kitchen. My family has owned at the complex for 25 plus years and we love the location and amenities. It came equipped with everything we needed for our three-month stay. We like IBC because we have rented condos there for the last few years. A huge plus was the fact of the adult bikes - they were ridden regularly - thank you for them - Anonymous, Toronto, ON Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 03/14/2016 My husband and I spent the month of February in unit 220c, Island Beach Club. Please do not book flights until speaking and confirming vacation with Select Vacation Properties. This unit is the closest in the complex to the road, so cars will be heard sometimes, but we did not find that to be a problem. - Roberta M., Lynn, MA Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 04/07/2018 This condo had everything we needed for a perfect Sanibel Island vacation! Also has bikes and beach gear. We are always pleased with the accommodations. Unit is immaculate. This is a smoke-free property.

However, when we mentioned this item it was not replaced. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. Otherwise clean and acceptable. Less than 100 steps from the beach, with a glorious view of the gulf across manicured lawns, this is a perfect place to unwind. - Mary Beth G., Old Hickory, TN Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 07/10/2017 We enjoyed our yearly get away for two weeks. - Anonymous, Fairland, IN Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 05/05/2014 Nice little condo community. You will be only 200 ft. from the front door to the beach! Some owners give you access to the storage closet at ground level. If you are a resident of another country or region, please select the appropriate version of Tripadvisor for your country or region in the drop-down menu. We were very happy with the Island Beach Club for our Sanibel trip and have rebooked(different unit) for next year as it is dog friendly and perfectly located for biking/walking up to Bailey's grocery store and restaurants. Two groceries within 5 minutes and restaurants galore. Only condo on Sanibel that has no restrictions on dogs. Relax on the spacious lanai, enjoy the large heated pool. Call or order online ahead and have Jerry's deliver your groceries when the cleaning people are there and you'll check into a well-stocked paradise. All units have covered parking at ground level for one car. The unit was well-stocked with everything we needed for a great week. The owner even called us during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. It made me feel like I was staying in qa condo of a friend! They responded very quick and supplied all new. Some need to keep up with cleaning the carpets better. We definitely will return for another 'adventure in paradise! And we could bring out dog! The pool is one of the largest we've seen for a condo and there are many less units here to share it than some of the other places. The floor plans are all very similar: 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, kitchen, and living area. Island Beach Club is a 75-unit complex with a heated pool, elevators, shuffleboard and gas grills. Although not the closest unit to the water, there is still a good view of the Gulf. Only negative was you could hear people walking in the unit above, but that is to be expected. Nice ocean view from condo and lots of peace and quiet during the stay. If you can't be on the beach, this is the next best thing. Our dogs are always welcome and have room to walk in a grassy area.When we return, this will be the place for us to stay. The unit is spacious and contains everything needed for short or long-term stays. Great view of the palm trees and Gulf of Mex. - Joel W., Howell, MI Overall satisfaction Services from rental manager Cleanliness Location Property condition Recommend to Others Yes, Review Date: 04/12/2021 Excellent.
