About the host
Hosted by Virginia Mills/Chris Wood
Retired Vocational Expert/ PhD with 3 adult children and my wife. I have been traveling to Sanibel since 1985. I love the extraordinary natural beauty including beautiful beaches and wildlife and activities available, particularly biking, kayaking, and the recreation center with pool lap lanes, tennis, basketball and exercise classes. Dozens of restaurants in Sanibel and Captiva. Easy access to Ding Darling Refuge with viewing of hundreds of migratory birds.
Why they chose this property
Easy access to two terrific public beaches, one walking and biking distance half mile and the other about 2 miles from the property. Quiet serene setting where you can forget all of your usual concerns and thoroughly relax. The calming nature of Sanibel will make you want to return every year.
What makes this property unique
Quiet peaceful setting while looking in the back of the house Ding Daring Refuge comes right to our property line. Little to no light pollution , or upward lighting allowing us to view the spectacular stars and moon at night. Privet road.
