We brought our family of 6 down and all had a wonderful time at the house. The owners were super accommodating to our schedule and responded to us within minutes. The house was impeccably clean and had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for our adult children to spread out. Neighborhood is super convienent and quiet. Beach was really only 4 min away and the house had all the beach supplies we needed! We had a wonderful vacation and made great memories at this house!

I loved this house. We have rented many properties in Captiva, and across the country, and I can truly tell the owners have tried to make this house special. This is the most spotless beach home I have every rented. Fantastic linens, spotless cleaning, and other special touches (liquid hand soap, reef diffusers, etc.). The garage was great to have as a post-beach landing spot, and beach equipment that was in great shape was provided. Lots of room for a large group, but the house also worked for just me and my daughter. Pool was great - morning and evening shade. The street was quiet and close to beach. Restaurants were walkable. We did not have many downsides - master bed was very firm (and to some, that may not be a downside!). Loved this house!!

The Good…there is lots of space for people to congregate in different areas, plenty of kitchen items, good quality beach items, lots of hangers, bath towels and beach towels for everyone. The area is very quiet at night and the bedroom mattresses and pillows are very comfortable. There are lots of windows, so lots of natural light. The location is ideal for walking in Captiva. TVs are everywhere. The Not So Good…there are no shades over the exterior door. This means someone can come to the front door and peer in. There is one functioning ice maker and you need to be sure to turn it on when you arrive. It takes about a day to make an adequate amount of ice…at least in the beginning of your vacation. There were no blow dryers for drying hair. (Later, we found them in unexpected locations). The rental contact, was not as responsive as we’d like. There were a couple of timely issues that were not assessed. The cost is expensive, especially if you aren’t splitting it. It was more than we normally pay, but fit the dates and amenities we were looking for. Unique touches….there is a printer in the lower den for printing your boarding pass, great idea. Captiva Civic Assoc. has a building on this block and it hosts special events. We were able to attend a wine tasting hosted by Baileys General Store. The landscaping allows you to leave a car in the shade all day. There are sprayers on the outside of the house that release big spray when evening starts to fall. The pool has lights in it that change colors. Did I mention the comfort of the beds? My sister took a picture of the pillow…it was the first time she slept without neck pain. Seriously, where do we get the pillows? Although there appears to be 1 air handler, the placement of vents makes the room temperature consistent on all 3 levels. Bottom line, an awesome vacation getaway with everything we needed. Wish it had been a 2 week stay.

We loved staying at this property during our week on Captiva! The house was flawless and had everything we needed including beach gear that we did not travel with (towels, chairs, umbrellas, wagons). The pool was spotless and clean all week, and the beach is a short walk down the street. Can't wait to come back!
