About this house rental

Newly remodeled, ON THE BEACH! OCEAN FRONT HOME ON PRISTINE SANDY WHITE BEACHES Spectacular views, best sunsets!

WE are located on the northern tip of the island... on a pristine white sandy beach overlooking the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico known as "Rum Point". There are 4 acres of private undeveloped land to the back of the property filled with tropical birds and trails... this makes our home very private and quiet!!!
To the front of our home is the Gulf of Mexico, just 10 steps and you can walk right in to turquoise waters!
Once you arrive at the dock, you will be directed to your golf cart which will be your island transportation during your stay, our island has no cars, only lushly lined sandy trails and golf carts! The property is a short 5 minute golf cart ride from the dock. Once you get settled into Rainbows End, you can explore the island with the furnished golf cart, or you can just relax and enjoy this magical beach house and the privacy it offers.
When traveling to a barrier island a beach front rental is really a must! The rhythmic sound of waves softly crashing just feet from your dinner table, spectacular sunsets from the porch or the beach, walk directly into the sparkling waters of the Gulf at any time, watch dolphins swim off your front porch most any day!
The island also offers miles of nature trails for hiking and exploring, over 600 acres of Federal Wildlife Preserve is one of the island’s many treasures. Miles of pristine and un-populated beaches, and depending on wind direction…always a calm beach to enjoy somewhere on the island.
North Captiva Island is a true offshore island, boat or plane access only, golf carts and bicycles on sandy trails vs cars and roads, yet all the conveniences of shore. The island has about 300 home owners, 4 bars/restaurants, a popular pool bar & grill, marina grill, small convenience store, guided fishing and boating tours, gift shop, boat rentals, grocery deliveries, etc. Once you arrive, you won’t want or need to leave!
Ferries run throughout the day, 20 minute boat ride, you can leave almost anytime, you just won’t want to! Also daily tour boats depart for island hopping, dolphin watching and grocery runs.
Give us a call or email, we would love to have you visit!!!!!!! The only bad part is, you won't want to leave :)

Very nice small house in a quiet setting. Beautiful location (and sunsets). Our only issue was bit of lack of communication from the local property manager. The local manager's young kids met us at the dock on arrival, which was a little odd, but then we had workmen show up unannounced twice - once working on the washer which we didn't know was an issue. Other than that, a great stay.

My family enjoyed the stay last week at this cottage right on the beach. Amazing views, saw dolphins while on the back deck. Remote, quiet, and relaxing. We had ants, the manager was responsive and had a professional out the next day. Just make sure to wear plenty of bug spray when outside, but that isn’t an issue with the property. Overall we were very pleased!

I am from the southwest Florida area and love Captiva. It had been sometime (pre-hurricane) since we had visited North Captiva. Rainbow’s End did not disappoint. First of all, the view is spectacular. You are right on the Gulf looking at Cayo Costa. We did indeed see manatees right out in front and actually got to swim with them. We also saw lots of dolphin and birds. This stretch of beach is amazing. It is so secluded you almost feel like you are the only people on the beach. What is fantastic about this property is the fact that it has a screened in porch across the entire front. You’re not sitting behind glass looking at the water. You’re actually able to sit out on the porch and hear the birds, hear the waves, and hear the rain. The stand out of this property was the outdoor shower. The Key lime body gel smelled amazing and was the perfect end to a day spent on the sand. The grill was brand new and we used it a lot. This house has everything you will need for a great day on the beach, chairs, noodles, floats, inner tubes, umbrellas, and toys for the kids. It was super clean and well stocked. We had plenty of room and with a little investment in the mattresses and the bedding, this place would be a home run. Shally’s Seashells Property management group was fantastic to work with. So responsive, so professional, and answered all of our questions. The grocery delivery service was amazing. We loved every minute here. This is a can’t miss property.

We loved being right on the beach with just a few steps from literally the water. Loved that there was a golf cart for us to use that was included in our stay. The only thing I would have wish for that there would have been cleaning products to clean the bathrooms and sliding glass doors when they got dirty. But I would definitely highly recommend on staying there and we will be back again hopefully next year. The property manager was on top of stuff when we needed it such as a new coffee pot when ours had broke. Also they helped to get use from the air port all the way to our rental home. Thank you so much for making our 25year anniversary so relaxing and wonderful . The Shepards

We really enjoyed our stay here! I loved being able to wake up and walk right out to the beach and swim every day. We were able to order fresh fish and have it delivered the next day. We saw dolphins several times right outside the house, and love photographing the wildlife on the island. We had a few maintenance issues and the management company was wonderful and very responsive to any issues. I mentioned we were having trouble with the grill and two days later a new grill appeared! The island is still rebuilding so there was some construction noise as the house next door was still finishing up. You will see construction in lots of homes. And there are only two restaurants open. Over the Waterfront was fantastic but make sure to make your reservation at least a week ahead. Definitely recommend. We had a great time!
