White Pelican Overview
White Pelican is a Gulf-front condominium community located on East Gulf Drive on the east end of Sanibel Island. The development consists of only 11 units, creating a highly private and low-density environment.
Built in the early 1980s, the property is positioned directly on the beach, offering unobstructed Gulf views and immediate access to the sand.
Its East End location provides one of the most convenient settings on the island, with quick access to the Sanibel Causeway while still maintaining a quiet, residential atmosphere.
White Pelican Real Estate
Condos in the community feature two-bedroom plus den and three-bedroom layouts with generous living space. Interior sizes are typically around 1,500+ square feet, with open floor plans designed to maximize Gulf views and natural light.
Many units include expansive screened lanais, updated interiors, and flexible den spaces that can function as additional sleeping areas or home offices.
With only 11 total units, opportunities to purchase in White Pelican are limited.
Amenities, Location & Rental Potential
White Pelican offers a well-rounded amenity package while maintaining a residential feel. Amenities include a heated pool, spa, tennis courts, and direct beach access, along with landscaped grounds and assigned parking.
Located on the East End, the community provides easy access on and off the island, as well as proximity to the Sanibel Lighthouse, bike paths, and Periwinkle Way shopping and dining.
Rental policies are more restrictive than weekly rental communities, helping maintain a quieter, more residential environment.
Things to Consider
Only 11 total units means limited inventory. Rental restrictions may limit short-term income potential, and the community is more residential than resort-oriented.
