Lovely Restful Vacation in a Rebuilding Sanibel
We spent a lovely spring break at Breakers West with our seven-year old. The island is still very much rebuilding after the hurricane, and it was sad to see the damage the area has gone through and certain places that will likely never come back. The rebuilding included our own unit. When we arrived, there were not covers on one switch and two outlets. It took a few days for the owner to get someone to take care of that. The main light switches also lacked their toggles so you had to reach into the switch a little to turn them on or off. That was not fixed during our week-long stay.
To be clear, the owner responded VERY quickly to any messages we sent, which was appreciated. The owner also told us the the space had been repainted recently and that we were only their second rental since the hurricane, so the issues are understandable. Hopefully they will be able to get it resolved soon. The parking lot was being recovered while we were there and so there was not yet any signs for where to park (but we figured it out).
Other residents and visitors were very friendly and we spent a good deal of time in the pool. It was kept very hot and so another guest asked one of the maintenance people if they could turn it down a few degrees, which they did. Afterwards it was better, but still pretty warm for swimming in weather in the low to mid 70s (the water felt warmer than the air)
What we loved was the smaller size of this condo building, which made for a more intimate experience.
