Very comfortable home with excellent beach amenities- plenty of beach chairs, umbrella, etc. We really enjoyed the large screened in porch and outdoor dining table. The complex’s pool is fantastic, with plenty of lounge chairs. Short walk to the beach and Captiva restaurants. Highly recommend!

The place was great and the development is very kid friendly. We met many people who come here year after year. The house was as pictured, clean and well maintained. There is one improvement that would make us more likely to return -- a king sized bed in the master suite that is firmer than the existing queen. The current bed is very soft.

We loved staying at 47 Sunset Captiva! What a lovely house. It suited our party of 6 adults very well. The beds were comfortable, the house was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The property manager provided detailed instructions and we found everything just as it was advertised. Everything in the home was in good working order. The location of this Property on Oster Within the Sunset Captiva community was only a short walk from the boardwalk out to the beach. Along the way to the beach we walked past beautiful (I mean breathtaking!) landscaping complete with several blooming orchids and bougainvillea and jasmine plants. If you come here be sure to look up into the palms to see giant travelers palms in bloom. And Nesting Osprey families chatting and hunting together! The bird watching on the beach was really special. There was a large flock of skimmers that congregated on the beach everyday. We saw pelicans and egrets and little sandpipers all day long. And the best surprise of all was the daily appearance of dolphins (mommies with little babies!) playing and hunting fish only a few yards from the beach. Beautiful! At night because the islands are national wildlife preserves there were no lights on the beach. But the boardwalk remained lit with soft yellow lights so you could easily and safely get back and forth from the beach. The pool was clean and a perfect temperature. We visited in Early November so no place was crowded and we never waited for meals or seating at the Mucky Duck or chairs at the pool. It was practically perfect in every way. I’m so glad we found this place!

We booked this house due its proximity to everything in the village. This vacation was to celebrate my daughters' graduations (high school and master's degree). Their dad and family were in South Seas, just a short distance away. The house was spacious and met our needs. We were close to the pool and beach. We had a great time! Loved the iguanas and rabbits. We don't have the iguanas in Central Florida.

The condo at 47 Sunset was perfect for my group. The bedrooms with attached bathrooms were convenient and comfortable for everyone. The main living area was perfect for spending time together as a family!! There were ceiling fans in every room and the air conditioning was exactly what you needed after a long day at the beach and pool!! The screened in porch was absolutely lovely, the surrounding trees made you feel like you were in your own tropical paradise without all the bugs!! There are 3 ceiling fans outside on the porch making it very comfortable, even in hot July!! We were provided with everything we needed from beach chairs, umbrellas, floats, sand toys, and beach towels! The pool (and bathrooms) were clean, just a short walk down the well maintained gorgeous, street that also led to the private boardwalk to the beach! We had an amazing week and cannot wait to return!! The location was perfect. The next street over hosts many different restaurants, bars, and shops. There's something for everyone!! If I had to say something negative I would say that there was a lot of debris under the house, it was not as well taken care of as the surrounding condos/ homes. BUT there was a hurricane the week before we arrived, so I think that was why!!! It certainly wasn't terrible, but the only thing I can think to mention.
