Sandalfoot Condos, a 3-story condominium complex completed in 1973, offers 61 units of Gulf-front living on the east end of Sanibel Island. Situated just steps from the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico, this well-maintained community provides residents with easy access to the island's pristine beaches and natural beauty. The convenient location allows for quick access on and off the island, making it an ideal spot for those seeking a balance between island tranquility and mainland connectivity.
Cozy beachside retreats with stunning views
Sandalfoot Condos offers a range of layouts to suit different needs, from intimate one-bedroom units to more spacious two-bedroom configurations. The one-bedroom units span from 590 to 690 square feet, each featuring one bathroom and selling for $467,242 to $519,865. These compact retreats are perfect for couples or solo residents looking for a beachside getaway.
For those requiring more space, the two-bedroom units range from 875 to 1,000 square feet, complete with two bathrooms, and are priced between $735,000 and $900,000. These larger condos can comfortably sleep up to four people, with a king-sized bed in the master bedroom and a sleeper sofa in the living room.
Many units boast breathtaking Gulf views, allowing residents to watch boats sail by or observe shore birds from their private lanais. The condos feature open floor plans that maximize the sense of space and light. Some units have been updated with modern touches such as granite countertops, new appliances, and plantation shutters. Crown molding in the main living areas adds a touch of elegance to select condos. Large windows and sliding glass doors fill the spaces with natural light and provide easy access to outdoor living areas, perfect for enjoying Sanibel's famous sunsets.
Resort-inspired amenities for an active island lifestyle
Sandalfoot Condos offers a variety of amenities designed to enhance the island living experience. The centerpiece is a large heated swimming pool, providing a refreshing alternative to the nearby Gulf waters. For those who enjoy racquet sports, the complex features both tennis and pickleball courts, allowing residents to stay active and socialize with neighbors.
Shuffleboard courts offer a more leisurely outdoor activity option, perfect for a relaxed afternoon. Throughout the property, conveniently located barbecue areas invite residents to enjoy al fresco dining and casual get-togethers.
The well-maintained and landscaped grounds create a lush, tropical atmosphere that complements the natural beauty of Sanibel Island. With the beach just steps away, residents can easily transition from pool to sand, making the most of the idyllic coastal setting.
Island charm and natural wonders at your doorstep
Sandalfoot Condos is located in the Sanibel Island neighborhood, known for its pristine beaches, abundant wildlife, and laid-back island atmosphere. The east end location provides convenient access to the causeway, allowing residents to easily venture to the mainland when needed.
Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge, a 7,000-acre protected area home to diverse bird species, river otters, bobcats, and manatees. The refuge offers excellent opportunities for biking, fishing, and wildlife viewing.
For dining options, residents can explore local favorites like Cielo Restaurant, an upscale establishment featuring carefully sourced American cuisine and live piano music. It's located just a mile and a half from Sandalfoot, perfect for a special night out. Traders Restaurant on Sanibel, about two miles away, offers a unique dining experience in a quaint setting, combining a gift shop with American fare and live music.
Shopping enthusiasts can peruse Beach Daisy Boutique or Adventures in Paradise Outfitters, both located within a short drive, for island-inspired fashion and outdoor gear. The Sporty Seahorse Shop, less than a mile away, provides a convenient option for quick shopping trips.
Families with children will find quality education options nearby. The Sanibel School, serving PreK through 8th grade, is just a 15-minute drive and boasts high ratings from both GreatSchools and Niche. For high school students, Fort Myers High School, though a bit further at 19 miles, offers excellent academic programs and extracurricular activities.
Island accessibility with mainland connections
Transportation on Sanibel Island primarily revolves around car and bicycle use. The island's extensive network of bike paths makes cycling a popular and practical way to explore the area and run errands. Many residents and visitors alike prefer biking as their primary mode of transportation, especially during peak seasons when parking can be limited.
For those needing to travel off-island, the Sanibel Causeway provides the main connection to the mainland. It's important to note that as of 2024, the causeway is still undergoing repairs, which may affect travel times.
While public transportation options are limited on the island itself, the mainland offers more diverse transit choices. Southwest Florida International Airport, located about 23 miles away or a 40-minute drive, provides convenient access for air travel.
For longer trips or exploring the greater Fort Myers area, having a car is advantageous. The proximity to Interstate 75, about a 30-mile drive from Sanibel, allows for easy connectivity to other parts of Florida.
During the summer and fall seasons, a free waterfront shuttle operates, offering an alternative way to explore the island's coastline. However, given the limited public transit options, most residents and visitors rely on personal vehicles or bicycles for their day-to-day transportation needs.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
