We rented a condo through Royal Shell Vacations website. We looked at several places on Sanibel and decided that this location would be best with our small children (11, 8, and 5). We wanted tranquil water and close to restaurants, etc.

We then chose from one of several at Loggerhead Cay. The one we rented was very nicely decorated. It was clean, had loads of whatever kitchen supply we might need, tons of bath towels, beach toys, movies, puzzles, books, etc. The beds were VERY comfortable! My son even liked the pull-out couch!

There is a short walk directly to the beach either via a boardwalk or a path. The grounds are nicely kept. Lots of flowers and bushes. The pool was clean and warm and close to our room. We had easy access to a tennis court if we wanted (we didn't!). The condo building itself is not as "pretty" as some of the newer ones (this one is 15 or 20 years old), but the inside of ours was totally redone and beautiful.

The people at Royal Shell were great. Booking was a breeze. We were able to check in early and found dish soap, dishwasher tablets, and garbage bags in abundance in the condo. The other nice thing is that the RS office is very close to the condo, so we got our keys and within 5 minutes were walking up the steps to our room.

I would definitely stay at Loggerhead Cay again and would definitely use Royal Shell Vacations again.

Loggerhead Cay is in an excellent location, very near the causeway and close to shopping, restaurants, etc, but at the same time quite tranquil.

We rented our unit from VRBO.com and it was spacious, nicely laid out, plenty of room for 3 people. the complex was not crowded at all when we were there (jan 6-13). no noise from adjacent units. There was at most one or two other families in the pool at the same time and during the week we were there we saw maybe 5 other vacationing families in the whole complex. the rest of the units were occupied by older couples.

it's a short walk to the beach, which was also never crowded. Loggerhead Cay is perfect if you want a lowkey place on the beach with good bike accessbility

We were staying in Loggerhead Cay at the end of October, weather had changed in one day from hot and humid to nice and warm, also temperature of the pool dropped and we had only one day of enjoyable swimming. I wish this large pool had a heater not just a solar cover. Actually we got an ocean veiw for extra charge, but could have any other unit with no view because complex is big but walk to the beach is not really long.
The week we stayed we did not use local beach for swimming because first days water smelled badly and it was murky even when waves almost did not exist, then we saw dead fish on a beach, then read algea came. We drove to the end of the island every day and actually could rent something else not on a beach at all. We took morning walks on the beach every day, had collected some shells there. You can only see sunrise from that beach, not a sunset.
Condo was very nice, spacious, clean, equiped for comfortable living with dishwasher, washing mashine and dryer, large kitchen - everything you can wish for. Groungs were also very nice and taken good care off.
Complex was not busy at all, probably October is "off season" time.

My family and I stayed at the Loggerhead Cay during Thanksgiving week. It was surprisingly quiet for a holiday week. The tennis courts and BBQ are nice and well-maintained. Our condo was very nice and plenty of room for 5 people. The beach is beautiful, of course. For those who are used to the energy of a Carribean all-inclusive, this was a very tranquil vacation. No clubs, programs or activities here. Most guests kept to themselves.
