Sanibel Arms West is one of the largest and most popular condo complexes on Sanibel Island. There are tons of rental options available through the condo association, BUT you will spend way more than you need too. You can generally find much cheaper rates renting directing from the unit’s owner on VRBO (Vacation Rental by Owner). In this list we show the 5 highest reviewed and rated condo rentals at Sanibel Arms West. Lets get started!
5. Unit I5 2BR/2BA Garden View, Our Value Pick
You will be hard pressed to find a better value in a 2BR condo rental on Sanibel Island, and definitely not in the Sanibel Arms West complex. While this unit doesn’t have a beachfront view, you can walk out your door and take about 30 steps to the sand. The average price for this unit is an incredible $156 a night. If you don’t mind having a beach view and want a clean, well-maintained condo in Sanibel Arms West, this rental is a great choice. Frequent Islander Grade: B (A+ in Value) Check Availability of Unit I5 through VRBO
4. Unit F3 2BR/2BA Beachfront on the 1st Floor
This is a great unit for those looking to avoid stairs. The kitchen has been recently renovated and is one of the nicest in the Sanibel Arms West condo complex. The beach view from the lanai on this unit is pretty good, although being on the ground level does detract from that a bit. This is a newer listing since the renovation so there aren’t many reviews to come in yet on their VRBO page. It looks like this condo is averaging about $250 a night at the time of publication. Frequent Islander Grade: B Check Availability of Unit F3 through VRBO
3. Unit K3 “Seas The Day” 2BR/2BA Partial Gulf View
This is a fantastic condo, all around. It averages $193 per night, so it is definitely cheaper than a full beachfront unit, but a little more than a garden view. The owner, Julia, has done a fantastic job decorating this unit and includes all the essentials. This unit is also on the ground level, meaning no stairs from the parking lot. There is a TON of seating in this kitchen and dining area and will have no problem accommodating larger groups. This unit is rated as a 4.9/5 from the users of VRBO and I agree wholeheartedly.

2. Ed and Kathi’s 1 BR Beachfront Top Floor, Views to die for
While this is one of the “technically” 1BR condo’s at Sanibel Arms West, you also have a queen size pullout couch in the living room. The view from this unit is worth the $150 per night rental charge by itself. What really stands out at this condo is the included amenities. You don’t find many condo rentals that include bikes, beach chairs, umbrellas, or coolers (just to name a few). Ed and Kathi have thought of just about everything and it definitely shows on their reviews. At the time of publication, this unit is 4.95 out of 5 on VRBO. Frequent Islander Rating: A solid A.
