    Back and Better Than Ever—Your Dream Beach House Awaits

    Looking for that elusive combination of near-beach luxury and genuine family-friendliness? Meet Sea Babe—a stunning custom-built home where coastal elegance and barefoot comfort create the ultimate Sanibel experience.

    ~The Perfect Location: East End Excellence~

    Nestled in Sanibel's desirable east end, Sea Babe puts you mere steps from two completely different island adventures. Walk 350 yards south to sink your toes in the Gulf of Mexico's sugar-sand beaches, or stroll 300 yards north to the bayside where you can cast a line and catch tonight's dinner. The iconic Sanibel Lighthouse Beach and Lighthouse Shopping Center are just a short jaunt away.

    You're close enough to everything that matters, yet private enough to feel wonderfully removed from it all.

    ~Built to Last: Hurricane-Proof Peace of Mind~

    Constructed in 2020 with the latest building standards, Sea Babe sailed through Hurricane Ian completely unscathed. What you see in the photos is exactly what you'll experience—no surprises, no compromises, just pristine coastal luxury ready to welcome you.

    ~Designed for How Families Actually Live~

    Sea Babe's 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath layout is a masterclass in thoughtful design, where coastal chic elegance meets the reality of family life. This is a home where you can relax without worrying about the kids, entertain without stress, and truly live for a month or more.

    ~The Heart of the Home~

    The great room flows effortlessly with a plush linen sectional and club chairs (seating for 8), 42 streaming TV for weather checks and movie nights, plus a dedicated desk for those inevitable email check-ins. The adjacent dining area seats 8 around a custom table dressed with slipcovered chairs—perfect for family dinners, marathon puzzle sessions, or game nights that stretch past bedtime.

    ~Coastal Dream Kitchen~

    Granite countertops, custom cabinetry with convenient rollout drawers, stainless appliances, an induction cooktop, built-in wall/microwave ovens and storage that actually fits everything. Positioned perfectly between the dining area, living room, and outdoor deck, the chef stays connected to all the action.

    ~The Screened Deck: Your Favorite Room~

    Slide open the doors from the kitchen or living area to discover your new headquarters. Elegant coquina travertine tile floors, premium Kingsley Bate teak dining table with seating for 8, plus a comfortable sofa and side chairs create multiple gathering zones. Enjoy al fresco meals, host Zoom calls with an enviable background, or simply bring the outdoors in during cooler months.

    A dramatic spiral staircase descends to the backyard oasis below.

    ~The Pool Paradise~

    Your private resort awaits: a saltwater heated pool and spa featuring a luxurious Baja sun shelf, covered seating area, outdoor grill, and even an indoor-outdoor ping pong table and corn hole set for friendly tournaments. The maintenance-free all-weather turf means everyone can enjoy the outdoors comfortably—even those with grass allergies.

    After beach adventures, utilize the custom shell washing station to clean your treasures, or spread out your finds at the outdoor picnic table for a proper sorting session.

    ~Sleep in Style~

    Primary Suite: Your Private Sanctuary

    King bed with elegant linen headboard, streaming TV, dedicated desk, and French doors opening to the screened porch. The spa-inspired en-suite bath features a shower designed for two, dual vanities, walk-in closet, and private water closet.

    Faq

    Is Sea Babe pet-friendly? Yes, pets are welcome with prior approval and a non-refundable pet fee.

    How new is Sea Babe? It was custom-built in 2020 to the latest building standards and came through Hurricane Ian unscathed.

    What is the minimum stay at Sea Babe? The City of Sanibel requires a minimum 28-night rental, no exceptions.

    Are beach towels and beach chairs provided? Yes — a minimum of 2 beach chairs are provided, along with 1 beach towel per person. Beach umbrellas are not provided.

    Are bicycles provided? We don’t provide bicycles — that’s not our specialty. We leave bike rentals to the pros: Billy’s Bikes and Finnimore’s. Both deliver, provide helmets, and offer roadside assistance if needed.

    How do I get to the beach? You can easily walk or bike to several nearby beach accesses that are just a few hundred yards away.

    How do I keep mosquitoes and no-see-ums away during my beach vacation? The best defense is an insect repellent with Picaridin, paired with light, long-sleeve coverage when you're not in the water. Loose, breathable long sleeves and pants block bites well, but that's not always practical at the beach, pool, or swimming in the Gulf — so a good Picaridin-based repellent is your go-to.

    Guest favorites include Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus Picaridin Aerosol Spray and Bug Guard Wipes/Lotion (available on Avon. com), and Sawyer Picaridin Lotion (available on Amazon). Picaridin is effective against both mosquitoes and no-see-ums, doesn't feel greasy like Deet, and won't damage swimsuits or patio furniture. Apply before heading outside in the early morning or evening, when both pests are most active.
