We stayed in the Castaways Beach Cottage June 2011. We wanted a laid back 4 night beach getaway. Our unit was #5, on the beach side and considered beach front. These cottages are very close to the beach and very quiet. The unit was not dirty but not clean. The window air conditioners were loud, old and insufficient. The bedding...

We spent one night at the Castaways last weekend in a one bedroom cottage facing the pool area. Our cottage was clean with a small full kitchen/living area, small bathroom and a separate bedroom. The bed was okay, not great, but tolerable! The wall unit air conditioners were noisy, but did keep the room nice and cool! Our cottage had...

The location is great if you want to stay on the beach or dock your boat. They are not luxury accommodations. We stayed with our family and the only thing good about the window air conditioners is the white noise they created. We let our infant crawl on the floor and after a couple minutes her knees and feet were...

All of our cottages have ceramic tiled floors and it is very difficult to keep sand and dirt on shoes from entering the cottage. The tiles are cleaned with disinfectant and bleach but of course as soon as people check into the cottage sand and...

We were looking for a low key get away, with no agenda but to go the beach and relax. Castaways fit the bill perfectly. Great location, beach, and restaurants.

I came for a short birthday trip. I called around and spoke to Vickie who was wonderful on the phone. I was well aware how small the cottage I booked was super small and I was ok with that. I was there to be at the beach not hang out in the room. I was not a fun of the...

Vacationing on Sanibel on a budget isn't easy but staying at Castaways helped! The price was only icing on the cake. My children and I appreciated the location and the AMAZING sunsets!! The cottage we had was sweet and felt comfortable and welcoming. Thanks for offering a place that holds true to the island style.
