We stayed at Loggerhead Cay during holiday break from work (dec-jan 07/08). I booked through vacationrentals.com, where you contact the owner and she books through sanibel holidays.
It was cheaper going through the owner ( better price) than if I had gone directly to a third party.

I had a first floor unit (cant remember the number offhand) and it was very pleasant. Comfortable, clean, well equipped.
Great lanai and outdoor area was lovely. There is a pool and you just walk up to the beach. We were one building away from beach.
The weather was up and down this past year, so we had a couple of really warm days, then some major rain and then sunny but very cool. But we bundled up and walked the beach and went to Captiva one day, and took a day to shop around when it was cool. Having a kitchen is nice because you don't have to eat out all the time. We did go to the Hungry Heron with a group of friends that arrived the day before we left (they stay at another condo area they own). Great meal as usual.
did go to the island cow once and a couple others.

Hungry Heron is always a great meal and great price. Definitely a family place, too, so it is affordable for a large group.

We did order pizza one night ( and i wish i could remember the name) and it was one of the best pizzas i have had. Great crust and sauce. And I have eaten at many across the country.

There was no red tide during my stay, but there was some churned up mess from the storm that left lots of interesting critters and such on the beach. But that is what natural is all about. If you want pristine, white with nothing in it, you should stay elsewhere (not sanibel). But i like the natural, quiet tranquility of the island. All the luxury of home but in a nice setting and lots to see and do or relax and do nothing.

I rebooked for this coming winter again for the same condo and got a good deal on the price ( less than what is posted) because I am a repeat customer and booked immediately--while i was still there).

Loggerhead Cay is near the lower south west part of the island.

Enjoy your stay!

My family of 5 recently stayed one week at Loggerhead Cay - Unit 321. We enjoyed the unit very much. The owner has decorated it in a very delightful way. There are also a lot of beach supplies, books to read, and movies to watch - a lot of personal touches in this particular unit. It very much felt like staying in a friend's condo. There was quite a bit of landscaping being done to beautify the grounds while were there. The establishment was being maintained quite well. It was a great location on the beach. The waves were a bit calmer there than at other pubic beaches on the island which was great for swimming and playing, especially for my 4 year old. The large pool on the premises was also a great feature. We booked the unit through VIP Vacation Rentals and everything went very smoothly.

We (me, my husband and 6 yr old son) stayed here the first week of May 08. We choose our unit (321)through vrbo. We opted to save some money and stayed at the back of the complex, which turned out to be a good decision. The beach wasn't really that far away and we were happy to be away from the pool since it can get loud at times. Our unit was clean and well furnished. The bathrooms needed updating but they functioned fine. Our unit included games, DVD's and books for all ages. It also included beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys, water toys, shelling nets, beach umbrella, and handy cart to carry it all to the beach. The owners left nothing out!!! It was great. The kitchen was well outfitted as well. The common areas of the complex are very well maintained. The pool is quite large and of course, the beach is gorgeous with wonderfully soft sand and millions of shells. We would stay in this unit again, mostly because of all the extras included by the owners. We were on the ground floor which was very nice when returning from the beach. We just went through the lanai and left all the sand in there!

I stayed for a week at Loggerhead Cay with my family at the end of April. The second floor condo we were in was about 100 yards from the surf. Great location - the beach was never crowded (partly because of the time of year, I'm sure), and the weather was terrific.

This property is very well kept - the grass was perfectly cut and everything was very clean. Each condo would be different depending upon the owner, but ours was well decorated, clean, and roomy.

If I travel to Sanibel again, this complex will be my first choice for accommodations.
