-------------------
Note from Blind Pass Condominiums during Hurricane Ian reconstruction :
During your stay, you may encounter disruptions such as noise from work/delivery truck traffic on the property; ongoing renovation work in units; noise/dust from landscaping projects; and noise/dust from construction work on tennis and pickleball courts. Amenities such as the courts may not be fully available and are subject to temporary closure with little or no notice.

While we will attempt to minimize the intrusions during your stay, all the work you will see and hear is necessary to fully restore the resort back to the paradise setting our guests have enjoyed over the years. Working hours will typically be between 8am – 4pm during the weekdays.

Please NOTE: There will be no refunds for early departures due to concerns related to ongoing construction/renovation work on the property. Our clubhouse will be open Monday through Saturday, 9am-4pm. If you have any questions or concerns, our knowledgeable and friendly staff will be there to help. Thank you for your patience and understanding during our recovery process. We look forward to hosting you!

About the host

Hosted by Julie Jennings

Kevin and Julie Jennings have been together since 1992. They live with their retired racing greyhound, Taz, sweet 16-year-old Abyssinian cat, Rusty, a tuxedo cat, Audrey and a rambunctious African Grey Parrot, Raptor, who is 25 years young and thinks Julie is 'the other woman'. They have one daughter, Nic, who lives in Southern Cali.

Recently transplanted from SoCal to Phoenix, Arizona, they are adjusting to the new climate, and are surrounded by friends from multiple groups they belong to.

Both are interested in making the world a better place, and have contributed significantly to many charitable organizations. They continue to support the causes they believe in, including: the cure for pancreatic cancer and Alzheimer's, as well as animal welfare and veteran concerns.

Both of them have lost their fathers to currently incurable diseases, yet feel that one day a cure will be found.

Julie is a proud veteran of the USMC.

Why they chose this property

Julie grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, and her Mom, Cindy, has always been a fan of Sanibel Island. After she married Kevin, they looked for a way to give back to the family, and to ensure that there would always be a vacation place on Sanibel for the family.

This unit has been in the family for over 8 years, and while we would like to visit more often, it has been a wonderful refuge for the whole family, as well as our guests over the years.

We love the fact that it is on a private beach, allowing for the wonderful and captivating shelling experience unlike anywhere else - one of the top 3 shelling beaches in the world.

Julie found dozens of fossilized cats paws one beautiful shelling day a few years back, and she has them proudly displayed in her living room back home, as a constant reminder of the treasures that exist on the beaches of Sanibel Island!

What makes this property unique

We chose this unit in this complex for a number of reasons:
1- it's on Bowman's Beach - a wonderful central location and very private
2- the unit is in the building closest to the beach path
3- it was already pretty updated when we bought it, and we added some finishing touches
4- the condo association takes excellent care of the property and are extremely responsive
4- Mom loved it, and she has excellent taste (enough said! ;) )
