Guest Spotlight: A Friendship That Began on Sanibel
Posted on 06/01/2026 in Guest spotlight.
One of the things we love most about Blind Pass Condominium is hearing the stories and memories our guests create while visiting Sanibel Island. Sometimes those memories involve family vacations, shelling adventures, or breathtaking sunsets—and sometimes they involve friendships that last a lifetime.
One of our guests recently shared a heartwarming story that began two years ago during a visit to Sanibel. While enjoying a stop at their favorite island ice cream shop, Pinocchio’s Original Italian Ice Cream, they met a young woman working behind the counter who was preparing to leave for Florida Atlantic University.
What started as a casual conversation turned into an unexpected friendship. Over the next two years, they stayed connected through texts and phone calls, sharing life updates and their mutual love for Sanibel.
This year, they finally reunited at their "happy place"—Blind Pass Condominium.
The day was spent catching up and making new memories together, beginning with conversations around the dining room table, continuing with lunch on the porch, and ending with a relaxing walk along the beach searching for shells. As a native of Fort Myers, their friend knows and loves this area as much as they do, making the reunion even more meaningful.
Their story is a beautiful reminder that Sanibel isn't just a destination—it's a place where lasting connections are made. The island has a special way of bringing people together, and sometimes a chance meeting can become a treasured friendship.
We're honored that Blind Pass Condominium could be part of another cherished Sanibel memory, and we're grateful to our guests for sharing their story with us.

Guest Spotlight: Mary’s Family Reunion at Blind Pass
Posted on 04/27/2026 in Guest spotlight.
“You know your family is too big…”
…when you need a tennis court just to fit everyone in the photo! 😄
We loved hosting Mary’s family here at Blind Pass Condos, where big families mean even bigger memories. From shared laughs to inside jokes like this one, their time together was all about reconnecting, relaxing, and enjoying every moment.
Whether it was gathering for meals, heading out to Bowman's Beach, or just spending time side by side, this group made the most of being together in paradise.
Moments like these are what it’s all about—family, fun, and stories you’ll be telling for years to come 💛
Guest Spotlight: Nashville Crew Finally Makes It!
Posted on 04/06/2026 in Family Friendly Vacations.
After 3 ½ years of waiting, this amazing group from Nashville finally made it to Blind Pass Condos — and it was well worth it! 🙌
Originally planned for October 2022 (right after hurricane Ian hit), their trip was delayed, but they didn’t give up. 33 guests across 8 families (plus 4 new little additions since then!) got to enjoy their long-awaited getaway together, staying in 7 of our condominiums.
From pool days to beach time at Bowman's Beach, it’s been all about making memories, reconnecting, and celebrating time together.
We love seeing groups like this finally make their trip happen—thank you for choosing Blind Pass for such a special reunion! 💛
Guest spotlight: Small World, Sanibel style

Sometimes the best vacation stories are the ones you never see coming…
The other evening while grilling here at Blind Pass Condos near Bowman's Beach, three of our guests struck up a casual conversation—starting with the simple question, “Where are you from?”
One said Vermont… another replied, “Us too.”
Then came the town… same answer.
Then the street… and suddenly it was, “No way!”
Turns out, not only are they from the same town—they live right near each other. One couple even owns farmland that borders the other’s road!
Just when it couldn’t get any better, the wives joined in. One mentioned an egg stand on the corner… and the other said, “I stop there all the time!”
Yep—that was her stand. 🥚
From neighbors back home to meeting again by chance in paradise—this is what makes vacations at Blind Pass so special.
We love seeing connections like this happen right here. All of them shared how much they’re enjoying their stay—and moments like these are exactly why. ❤️

Morning Shelling Magic at Blind Pass Condos ✨🐚
Huge thanks to Norm, who found and shared this amazing shell collection from Bowman’s Beach this morning! Within just an hour and a half, Norm discovered 31 different shell species, including standout finds like a Scotch bonnet, alphabet cone, sunray venus, banded tulips, Florida spiny jewel box, apple murex, calico clams, lettered olives, several scallop varieties, stone coral, fan coral, augers, turbans, and worm shells.
And that’s only what could come home—he also spotted live crabs, sea stars, a horse conch, and a sea nettle, helping them safely back into the water. 🌊💙
Moments like this are what make Blind Pass Condos, just steps from legendary Bowman’s Beach, such a special place for shellers and nature lovers alike.
