Island Beach Club is a low-rise beachfront condominium complex built in 1976 and spread over four stories with about 75 units, primarily two-bedroom floor plans. The architecture reads as relaxed mid‑century coastal: low massing, screened lanais and broad windows oriented toward the Gulf. Units commonly include open living/dining configurations, kitchens with breakfast bars or islands, generous laundry/utility rooms, multiple primary suite layouts, and built‑in cabinetry. Many residences feature tiled floors, wrap‑around screened balconies, floor‑to‑ceiling windows or sliding glass doors and impact-rated openings in recently updated homes. Shared facilities are oriented to beach living and seasonal rentals: an in-ground heated pool, shuffleboard and outdoor grilling areas are set within lush landscaping and courtyards. Practical conveniences include covered under-building parking, private storage rooms, on-site management, elevators and central utilities. The property permits weekly rentals and is notably pet friendly. Located on West Gulf Drive in central Sanibel, the complex provides immediate beach access, easy walking or biking to nearby shops and restaurants, and strong seasonal rental history that supports both vacation use and investment ownership.
