Welcome
Vacation Guests

With more than 25 years of Sanibel Island hospitality and real estate experience, Rob Pailes and Charlie Hartley understand the big picture about vacation rental homes, condos and owners — and it’s upon these simple truths that they’ve built Sanibel Vacations:

  • Honesty, Integrity and Reliability with Owners

  • Competitive Fee Structure

  • Savvy Internet, E-mail and Social Marketing

  • Value-Added Services and Amenities for Vacationers

  • No Charge to Owners for Duties Others Charge For

Sanibel Vacations provides more than accommodations. We offer everything Sanibel and Captiva offer to enjoy. In addition to placing you in one of our exceptional private homes or condominiums, we can assist in planning a customized family beach vacation. Go shelling on remote beaches, or sport fishing for grouper, snapper, snook, cobia or amberjack; plan a romantic wedding or spa vacation, or shoot wildlife photography at sunrise or sunset. How about a girls’ getaway or golf vacation? Our experiences as travelers and as residents consistently provide personal and distinctive service, aimed at making your vacation all you’ve hoped for and more.

Our added services can also bring the tastes and treasures of the islands directly to your vacation doorstep. Fresh produce and citrus from the local farmer’s markets, and fresh seafood from the local waters, delivered to your vacation rental, are complimentary. Prior to your arrival, let us arrange your airport transportation or stock your refrigerator with your first morning’s breakfast.

We are at your service. We are here to provide your the services and information to create the most memorable trip to the islands or family vacation you’ve ever experienced. Whether it’s a massage in your vacation rental or a picnic basket on the beach, we’re happy to make recommendations or arrangements on your behalf.
