About this house rental

Beautiful, tropical, two level home with five bedrooms and four baths. Free WiFi. Just added to the deck which is now a tremendous 12 x 42. New Living Room and new Deck furniture. An OUTDOOR TV on the Living Room deck. All under the protection of the screened pool cage for your comfort. Rooftop sunning deck. Brand new Fridge with filtered water and ice maker. New dishwasher. We have more bedrooms with their own bathrooms than all other properties in our price range. Of our 5 bedrooms, three of them have en suite bathrooms & 2 share a connecting bathroom. This makes it really easy for many people to get ready at the same time and offers convenience and privacy. Our house is ALWAYS sunny. We have ample sky-lights which have heat and glare shields. The beautiful swimming pool is heated and has attractive pavers. We are the third property in from the gulf beach on one side and the third in from the bay on the other. The driveway gate can be closed for privacy and most of the property is fenced. We are constantly told the pictures don't do us justice. We enjoy having many returnees to Blue Heaven year after year.
Clean, white tiled floors, 12 x 42 living room level deck with OUTDOOR TV which is within the pool cage, tremendous rooftop sunning deck, screened & heated pool, steps from the white sandy beach on the Gulf of Mexico and steps from the Bay. ( We are the 3rd property in from the Gulf beach on one side...and 3rd property in from the bay on the other. Perfect for shelling, fishing, kayaking, biking and sunsets, a quick walk to charming restaurants and unique shops and art galleries in the Village area of Captiva. Tennis and golf are available in Sanibel just minutes from Captiva. I think Tween Waters Inn, Captiva, will let you rent a pass to play tennis. We are within the 'Village' area where you may use rented golf carts.
Our first level may also be used as a private In-law Suite or Nanny Suite with its own bath, living room, kitchenette. It has a secondary private entrance for added convenience. The 'Cabana' room with kitchenette and sliders to pool, may be used for bedroom with 2 twin beds and 'Jack and Jill' bath. Each of the other three bedrooms has a private bathroom and are a king, queen and 2 twins.
Sleeps ten; most pets allowed $250; all modern amenities including HEATED pool and sand chairs for the beach , big stainless steel gas grill with one sauce burner , WIFI internet and all bedrooms have flat screen televisions. Outdoor TV on 12 x 42 deck. Flat Screen TV in livingroom too. Rented weekly, Saturday to Saturday. Multiple week discount negotiable. Possible shorter than one week rentals if last minute, will be prorated. Ask about some special rates for some weeks. We pay the cleaning fee (approx $300 value). There is a Florida and Lee County tax of 11.5%. No surprises. Best for planning trips. New fridge and dishwasher. Beautifully furnished deck overlooks pool and goes across the back of the whole house with outdoor television. The deck is 12' by 42'. New carpeting in the screened porch and the staircase between levels. New living room furniture - see photo. We are tickled pink with this year's changes!

We had never previously rented a house, and this time we all pooled together and did as a family. It was SO nice to have plenty of space for everyone. We did have to ride out Tropical Storm Debby which wasn’t the best but we made due!! The house already had a jumper for my son (10 months) which was such a pleasant surprise! We also found games and books which was awesome as well. There were plenty of beach chairs and items for the pool. I LOVED the guest book- what a fun feature!! The property is beautiful, and we even went to the roof a couple times which was neat! During the tropical storm, we did have the skylight leaking so we placed towels and buckets to catch any water dripping. It was hard to give my kids baths though (I normally have a handheld shower head I use for them- in the bathroom my daughter stayed in the shower head was obnoxious and basically dumped out like a water hose so she just showered with me all week, and for my son I just did my best to hold him against me and shower with him too, not a terrible complaint just less than ideal. I loved having our own laundry as well so we did not have to go home with a ton of dirty clothes! Overall, I loved being able to stay there and would definitely consider it again!

I loved the property, the house was perfect. I would love to go back to this property. The check in process was delayed due to the cleaners, considering the prior renters were out 2 days prior. The cleaners could due a much better job inside and out.

Layout was great. We had 2 families with children and a set of grandparents. Everyone had their own space making differing bedtimes easy. The pool and decks were great. Property management company was responsive and helpful.

Blue heaven is a very comfortable stay away from home. We enjoy location to beach, and comfort on property with much space available to relax or swim, cook outside, and enjoy family time. Home is comfortably decorated and fits a family to make Wonderful vacation memories.

Beautiful, comfortable house with all the equipment, pool and short walk to the beach. Short walk the other way to restaurants and shops. Great experience!

3 generations, 9 people vacation. Plenty off bedroom and bathrooms. The extra long doing table with plenty of chairs was great. Walked to ocean (ocean equipment and washing wagon were great). Kind used pool everyday. I watched the sunrise from rooftop deck several times. Royal Shell was nice enough to supply us with a shower chair. Only downside for me was the stairs; I am disabled and mostly the stairs were okay; but there were a couple days when I had done so much walking that the last stair climb was challenging.

House is as described and in a perfect location. There was ample space for our group of 5 adults, one teenager, and one child. The heated screened in pool was amazing! We would definitely return and cannot think of a property we have liked more.

Great vacation property. Extremely clean upon arrival. So much better than the pictures, accommodating 4 kids (18 to 23), 2 parents and a grandma. Close to beach (walkable) and food options. Pool was perfect.
