About This Home
Tucked away on Sanibel’s serene East End, The Palms of Sanibel captures the very essence of island enchantment. Set on over an acre of lush, near-beach paradise, this boutique resort is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Sanibel’s storied charm—where palm fronds sway in the sea breeze, the scent of salt air lingers, and each sunset feels like a private celebration. Two picturesque coastal-style buildings house four beautifully appointed rental cottages, each offering the comforts of home with the allure of a tropical escape. Every residence features inviting living spaces, full kitchens, cozy bedrooms, and thoughtfully designed baths, creating an atmosphere that’s as effortless as it is elegant. Some cottages boast screened porches that open to the whisper of the island’s warm breezes, where laughter drifts through the palms and evenings are illuminated by golden twilight. Just a leisurely stroll away lie Sanibel’s world-renowned beaches, known for their endless shells and tranquil beauty. Guests can easily wander to Lighthouse Beach Park, explore the island’s boutique shops and local dining favorites, or simply unwind beneath a canopy of tropical foliage. At the heart of the property, a sparkling resort-style pool invites relaxation under the Florida sun, complete with ample lounge seating and an open-air pavilion perfect for gatherings, celebrations, or intimate island events. Additional amenities include on-site laundry facilities and a versatile outbuilding—ideal for storage, a workshop, or creative expansion. Whether envisioned as a thriving boutique investment, a private family compound, or an exclusive retreat for friends and guests, The Palms of Sanibel offers a world of possibilities wrapped in timeless island charm. Here, fun and finances intertwine effortlessly, and every day feels like a vacation—just moments from the turquoise waters and sugar-white sands that make Sanibel one of the most cherished destinations on Florida’s Gulf Coast. The Palms of Sanibel: where coastal serenity meets opportunity, and paradise pays dividends.
