Property was very spacious and comfortable. Kitchen had all of the cooking utensils we needed, bathrooms had plenty of towels and there were nice beach towels provided. Washer and drier were very nice and efficient. We brought our own beach toys, wagon and chairs but there were some of all of these provided too. My kids used one of the bikes (there were 2 but 1 had a low tire and we did not pump it up) to go back and forth to the beach path. The community pool was biggest hit with my grandson, clear and clean. Overall good location to both sides of the island and captiva businesses. Definitely would recommend.

This is our second time staying at this home and we absolutely love the convenience, comfort and cleanliness. The host is amazing to communicate with and whenever there is a small issue, they are very attentive to get back in touch with us. Looking forward to more time spent at our second home away from home.

Great Captiva Island house - perfect for our family of 5 -> loved the house and location. Plenty of room for all of us with 3 bedrooms + loft. Location is the best - 2 min walk to pool, 4 min to beach and walk to restaurants. And, the hosts were great. Thank you!

We are a group of 4 adulds and two girls (2+5 years old) and enjoyed every day!! We visit Captiva several times in sunset Captiva and this Place is really good in shape. The Island is still in reconstruction in several locations after the hurrican but Sunset Captiva area did a really good job. The sidewalks are new builded and the pool is joyful and even the plants are perfectly done. The owner Ryan replies fast on every question we had. The house was clean and had everything you need for a wonderful vacation. We will come back again!

We live ve Captiva and usually stay out of town a bit (near Tween Waters). But, this rental was perfect for our grandson and friends with food, shops, etc. close by. Also nice for the adults… as short walk to the market and restaurants. Our host was very responsive to our needs.

We enjoyed our week at 57 Sandpiper. The house is spacious, beds are comfortable, and location is great with easy access to restaurants, the beautiful Captiva beach and pool, which was a good size for the community. Host (Ryan) was responsive to our requests. We would stay here again.

We spent the week at house 57. The pros first- the house was perfectly clean- very appreciated. The beach wagon, chairs and umbrellas were great to have. The beds were quite comfortable and all appliances worked perfectly. The cons - the furnishings were sparse, uncomfortable and very old. The porch furniture was very very old and not inviting at all. Sitting out on an otherwise fine porch was just too uncomfortable for very long, due to poor chairs. The lighting in the family and bedrooms were very inadequate as was the upstairs bath lighting. The house was ok, overall. But we still had a fine week.

The community where the property is located is very nice.
The property itself is very good but needs updating, especially dining room and living room furniture. Beach access was outstanding and the location in regards to restaurants and community center are outstanding.

We loved this home, location and, of course, Captiva. This was our third vacation to Captiva/Sanibel and it never fails to be better than the last.
The house was plenty big and comfortable for the 6 of us. The balcony off of the upstairs master bedroom was amazing. We sat up there at night and just enjoyed the stars and our nightcap. The community was friendly, especially the neighbors, Sue and Jim. It is close, with an easy walk to the beach. The pool is large and warm. The local store (we call it the little corner store) has everything you need at a reasonable price. Our host, Ryan, was incredible. His communication was continuous, quick responses, and great followup - plus a nice person to talk to. Overall we rate this place 5 stars plus, plus, plus. Thanks for a wonderful family vacation Ryan!

This house is in a great location on Captiva. It is a short walk to all the key features of the island, including the Mucky Duck, the Island Store, Jensen's Marina. The available pool is very nice, and we enjoyed it frequently during our 2 weeks with another couple. A boardwalk leads you to the beach where shelling and watching the Osprey's is an all day thing. The house has plenty of room including a screened porch. The neighborhood is quiet and is well maintained. We had a great time and would go back.

My family and I truly enjoyed staying at this home on Captiva. The location was incredible! We were only steps away from the beach and we could walk to most places on the island.

Enjoyed the house and being able to walk to several restaurants. Pool and beach were great, just sad the tennis court was torn up. Ryan is an excellent communicator.

The house and porch was infested with noseeums. They lied and said there was a dock available to use I had to rent a slip from tween waters and not get reimbursed. Bed had blood stains on the sheets.

We really enjoyed our stay here (5 of us). This is a beautiful area and the rental included everything you need for pool, tennis courts, umbrellas/chairs and many other items for the private beach. House is very clean and well decorated. Ryan's communication was outstanding, and he promptly answered any questions I had prior to and after arrival. We will definitely be back. Thanks Ryan & Mercedes!

The house was nice and clean and our hosts were GREAT with communication. We are a large family of 7 and had enough space to be able to spread out without feeling jammed in. The neighborhood is absolutely charming and despite the hurricane damage in 2022, it’s in great shape. The walk to the beach is a little hike when a toddler is in tow but using the on-site beach wagon and caddy helped ease the grumbling. Our teens enjoyed using the on-site bikes to ride to the store for some shopping or coffee. All of the beach equipment is in good shape which isn’t always the case when going to a beach rental. The beds and sofas were all more comfortable than expected for a rental too! Thanks again for hosting!

I decided to travel to Sanibel/Captiva Island this January and help support the recovery from Hurricane Ian. I came across this spot and reached out to the owner Ryan. He was very honest about the Island and the fact there are a lot of things closed and recovering. I booked this place and was very impressed how the owner reached out with his personal number.
Upon arrival loved location with beach access, pool, trnnis courts... At first was a bit worried about not much open but realized had the beach to ourselves and was amazing. Restaraunts bars opened as we were thre as well as golf course..
Any minor bumps or scrapes with property were dealt with right away by Ryan and the maitenance team
Best rental I have stayed and and will be back!

Our family was very pleased with this clean and modern beach chic home that offers comfort and style steps away from the pool and beach. The beds were very comfortable, even noticed by 13 year olds!
We were grateful to return to our vacation 2nd home and taking it all in following the staycations then last two years.
The beach closet was stocked with tennis racquets, sand toys, shelling baskets, chairs, umbrellas, rafts and more!…. We left our new blue raft too! The wagon was amazing despite the steps up the boardwalk to the beach,
Breathtaking as always!
This home could have accommodated additional people as well with the space nicely dedicated to 2 king size beds and a room with bunk beds, and upstairs rooms have a king and two singles in the loft with the master bedroom. We
Are
Looking forward to
Next summer!!!

Great Vacation Spot
We had a great vacation with our family at Captiva. The house was very clean, in a great location and part of private community. We had easy access to the beach and just a block away from restaurants and shopping. I would definitely recommend this property for your next vacation.

Can't wait to come back!
A beautiful home in a perfect setting! The space was so nice for our family of seven people. The island is so beautiful and we were able to walk to restaurants, shopping, ice cream, and of course, the beach! I hope to visit this property again and again!

Thank you for a wonderful 2 week stay. We had a blast. Some helpful tips would be to supply a broom . The washer machine needed repair as well.

The Best Location
We all had a fantastic time on Captiva! The property has everything one would need for a fun filled beach day! The pool and the beach and the restaurants are all an easy walk from the home. The house also has a great screened in porch for al fresco dining. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking at home which we did on multiple evenings. The kids (2 and 5) did not want to leave! A truly phenomenal time was had by everyone! I highly recommend this home for families.

Sunset Captiva is truly the best location on Captiva. This is just a lovely, well-kept community. Our stay @ 57 Sandpiper Ct was truly enjoyable. The house was as "advertised" and had just what we needed for a truly enjoyable and relaxing beach stay including the most comfortable beds we are have slept in away from home. Thanks to Jim & June for sharing their home.

Excellent location
We have stayed at this property three times. The kitchen is well stocked and the layout is very good. The house needs some work. Curtain rods falling down, shower grout is in need of attention etc, just needs some overall love . Dustpan would be helpful.
