The Sanibel interior — kitchen and shower

A Social Build That Converts to a King Bed.

The Sanibel is centered around the dinette — a U-shaped bench seating area that comfortably fits 5 people around a large swivel-mounted table. The table flips over to double in size when you need it. When it's time to sleep, you remove the table mount, lay the table flat as a bed platform, adjust the cushions, and you've got a full front-facing king-size bed — no awkward angles, no squeeze.

  • U-shaped dinette seats 5 — large table on a swivel mount, doubles in size
  • Converts to a king-size bed: table becomes the platform, cushions adjust flat
  • 36" shower with tile surround and on-demand hot water
  • 16" full-length closet
  • Passenger seat swivels to face the living area
  • Toilet lives inside the shower — pick it up and set it in the hallway when you shower
  • Full kitchen: induction cooktop, sink, fridge, and microwave
  • Solar + lithium battery system, 8 DC circuits, 6 AC circuits
  • Large side windows — more natural light than the Captiva
  • Two upper cabinets, shaker-style (color is your choice)

Optional Variations on the Sanibel Layout

The Sanibel is a starting point, not a box. These are some of the ways clients modify this floorplan to fit their needs.

🪑

Straight Bench Option

Skip the U-shape and go with two long side benches instead. You lose one seat but gain the option to use the rear doors as a second entrance and exit — great for layouts where rear access matters.

💺

3rd Seat Behind the Driver

Remove or relocate the closet and install a third seat directly behind the driver — the same configuration used in the Captiva. This also opens up the option for a toilet on drawer slides that rolls into the shower when needed, instead of lifting it manually.

🔼

Flip-Up Countertop

Add a fold-down countertop extension that nearly doubles your prep surface when you need it and tucks flush against the wall when you don't — a feature we showcased on the Captiva.

Your Finishes, Your Style

Cabinet style, cabinet color, countertop material, tile, shower tile, flooring, hardware, fixtures — all of it is your call. The Sanibel was done in shaker cabinets. Yours can look completely different.
