We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Sanibel Island at the Parrot Nest cottages. We were located within an easy walk to the beaches including the beach at the lighthouse. Shelling was very good in all areas. The cottage was comfortable and quiet and we enjoyed having ospreys calling and nesting right outside our door. We had a great time watching the birds fishing. Although hurricane damage is visible on many parts of the west side of Sanibel, it is amazing how much progress has been made in terms of getting rid of debris. Construction is going on everywhere as the island is rebuilding. We had no problem finding wonderful places to eat and nice shops to visit. We have no doubt we will be back, will look forward to staying at Parrot Nest again; the cottage was in excellent condition , and there was no evidence of hurricane damage on the premises. It was nice to have beach, chairs and umbrellas provided for us to use during our stay.

Awesome...

The parrots nest was very nice. We loved #4 very private , clean, and the shower was amazing after a day in the sun. We used the bikes to go see the sunrise. 2 minute down the road. The chairs, buggie and towels were also great to have for the beach. I would definitely stay here again.

An oasis on a tropical island

We love this property. It's like an isolated little oasis on your own desert (actually, tropical) island. The grounds have the most beautiful trees. It's down a little side road off the main road, so it's very quiet at night. There's a great ice cream place and the top rated breakfast place on the island literally within walking distance. Perfect!

Outstanding!

We stayed in Toucan and everything was great. The room was nicely updated, spacious and very clean. The bed was super comfortable too. We really appreciated all the amenities on the property like the bicycles, beach chairs and even the shell cleaning station. Getting to the beach was an easy, short walk. We really enjoyed our time there.

My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and had the most relaxing time! We loved using the bikes on the property to go up the road to the restaurants and walked over the the ice cream and cafe next door. It was so conveniently located just a five minute walk to the beach across the road. The unit was clean, spacious, and quiet despite having neighbors next door. It was also nice that many beach essentials were provided as well since we had to fly and couldn't bring those with us. Check in was simple and the owner gave so much great information to us both before our trip and printed for reference in the unit. We would definitely stay here again!

We had the best honeymoon with this perfect little cottage as our home base! The room was spotless and had everything we needed. Management was quick to respond with questions. Cottages are very close to the beach and the bikes and beach equipment provided were a great touch! Laundry facilities on site were also a welcome bonus. We will definitely be back.

My husband and I spent our 17th anniversary in this cottage, and we had such a wonderful time! The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do, while still being set away from the busiest part of the island. We will definitely be staying here again when we come back!

From the first phone call, through the stay itself this was a perfect experience. The customer service was super friendly, and the unit itself was wonderful. The bed was so comfortable, the room is fine for a couple. I am tall so the shower was not the best feature, but I read other reviews complaining about how small the bathroom was, that's not true. It's just fine, the shower head is low if you are 5'10"+.The little kitchen was a fine size for what we needed.The room was clean and VERY quiet and private. The hose at the front door was great for rinsing sand off feet to keep it off the floors in the room. The wagons and bikes were convenient.I do recommend maybe buying some new bikes- these are rusted and I had a hard time finding one with air in the tires.We found two good bikes and parked them on our private patio and used them while we were there.There is food, ice cream, and a souvenir shop all a few minutes walk away.I will definitely stay here again. Thanks Kim and Annie!

You will be hard-pressed to find better value in southwest Florida! The Parrot's Nest is perfect for anyone wanting to visit beautiful Sanibel/Captiva! Tons of amenities (free bicycle fleet being my fav!), great location with access to both gulf and bayside beaches! The staff is excellent and available every day of the week. We needed the battery in our smoke alarm changed on a Sunday and they resolved the issue within 2 hours. Don't waste money anywhere else, stay at Parrot's Nest! I already miss the hammock!

Love these little cottages. For the most part they are well maintained, very clean and bed was comfortable. The bikes, beach towels, chairs and cart to haul things to beach that are provided are a big plus. We loved the location of Parrots Nest on end of Sanibel near the lighthouse. It’s not beach front property but a very very short distance to beach. You are away from crowds and can easily get around the island by foot, bike or car. There are bike/walking trail all over Sanibel. We hope to take another mini trip back to Sanibel and will book our stay again at Parrots Nest.

This place was perfect for our one night stay! My boyfriend and I felt more comfortable staying in a small unit vs a large hotel and we made a last minute booking. Our spontaneous date was a wonderful experience and I'm so glad that we found this place. The ease with which we checked in and checked out was sweet. The cottage was just right for our needs especially the ac. Hopefully we can stay here again when we come back to beautiful Sanibel island. Also, it's proximity to our favorite restaurant, Traditions on The Beach.

Everything was great!!

excellent location, close to great beaches, pier for fishing, the light house, breakfast..... and ice cream plus souvenir shopping. All within walking distance and they provide bicycles for journeys farther away. We rode bikes to go on the Sanibel Thriller, saw dolphin playing and learned a lot of history about the Islands.
