A great rental with lots of outdoor toys, kayaks, golf cart, boogie boards, bikes etc. Clean home, great check-in experience, very well stocked with everything you would need for the week. I would rent this home again in a heartbeat.

Lovely! Beach house is warm and inviting! Short walk to beach. Swimming pool was heated and so enjoyable anytime of day. This is a haven away from busy, hectic life! Very rejuvenating getaway. Perfect spot to spend time with family- playing cards or games, reading books or just enjoying a movie. Thank you, Pat for opening your heavenly haven to us. Your home is a blessing for family getaways.

We just came back from a week at Jose's Hideaway. Pat was very helpful and the house was just perfect for our family reunion. We had a couple of dinners outside by the pool and everyone was happy. We've stayed at four other houses on the island and this is our favorite!

Owner was available when needed. She gave us all the contacts necessary to make the trip to the island easy and fun. g

The Hidden Beach House was the best VRBO rental that I have ever rented, and I have rented many. The downstairs hangout area was a ton of fun!

Lovely home, lots of toys (e g., kayaks, bikes, pool table) and amenities, ideal location for a beach vacation, friendly and helpful proprietor--all on an island that is a piece of paradise. Can't recommend more highly.

My family just spent 7 nights staying with Pat and we had a wonderful week! In my opinion, Pat's house is on the best part of the island where a 4 mins walk from the house to the beach led us to an almost private white sanded beach. We watched dolphins and manatees from the beach, and enjoyed breath-taking sunsets. Pat supplies an endless option list of ways to set-off on our adventures. From 4 kayaks, bikes of every size, kids' sand toys, to sun chairs and an umbrella, there is something for everyone. The use of the golf cart was a great way to tour the island. The house itself is the perfect size for a family of 4 or 5 (we have 2 teenagers, so each had a bedroom). We loved being able to come back after a day on the beach to grill, play in the private pool, throw cars, and play a game of pool. My favorite part of the house was the huge screened-in porch where I sat in the mornings and where we ate meals. The kitchen was well-stocked for people who enjoy cooking. Pat was quick to respond to any questions and helped me figure out the ferry schedule. We would absolutely come back to visit and hope to do so again soon!

This was the perfect property for our family. It is in a nice location on the island and a short comfortable walk to the beach. The house is well taken care of and nicely appointed. We rented an extra cart from the owner. Both of theirs are lifted witch came in handy during the brief rain showers. Any questions we had got a quick reply back from the owner. I strongly recommend this home and will probably be there again next year.

Our family had a wonderful vacation and cannot wait to return! Pat went out of her way to help us navigate the island with small children and was beyond accommodating! The house was stocked with everything we needed and the quality of the sheets and towels was 5 star! Thank you for sharing your magical home and island with us!

We had a great second visit to North Captiva! Pat and her home were exactly what we were looking for! The location is great and the home is well equipped. Pat is very accommodating. We would highly recommend and will visit again!

Everything was great ! Owner was super helpful and responsive .

We enjoyed all of the special touches and creature comforts.

Low water pressure, refrigerator smell bed, the house was not clean well,

Wonderful amenities and another great experience!

The house was perfect for my family and friends of 6. We were with a larger group that had another home and it was a general consensus that our home was better. It had a cozy at home feeling. There was a hiccup with the home while we were there and Pat did everything she could do to fix the issue. She was an amazing host. This house just a small walk to the beach which I walked every morning. Tortoises live on the island and we saw them most everyday our my walks. I enjoyed sitting on the front porch drinking coffee with friends in the morning, then having a cookout in the evenings. This house has everything you will need for a beach vacation on North Captiva Island. Our teenagers loved the pool and pool table. Lots of seashells to be found on the island. We had 2 golf carts and so glad for that. We at at barnacles once. It was good but expensive, island price’s. Take plenty of food, your clothes, fishing poles (if you fish) and a good book. Thats all you need!

Fabulous. A warm, inviting cottage with every amenity anyone could wish for. Our hosts, Pat and Tom, went out of their way to make our stay the perfect getaway. They are wonderful people. We had a relaxing, delightful month there on that jewel of an island.

Pat and Tom are available and helpful from start to finish. The house is much prettier than the pictures. We loved the pool and outside entertainment area. The beach is a short walk and is beautiful with a shade tree. Everything about the house including extras like the golf cart and beach chairs, makes sense and flows perfectly for a relaxing time.

Pat was a great host. The property had everything for you to enjoy your stay and relax. We had an amazing stay

Super clean and cute. Everything you need is there. Not fancy, but just right. The pool and deck area (under the house) allowed us to stay outside almost all day. It is a short walk or cart ride to the beach, that is never crowded. Nice beach chairs and some umbrellas are also available. We like to try a different house each visit (9 years now) and this was one of the better ones for a small group. North Captiva Island is an awesome destination. Most of the houses available for rent are nice. What we find important is distance to the beach, a private pool, screened porch with comfy furniture and a good under house area. This house hit all those marks.

This is our 10th or 11th year returning to North Captiva and there is No where else we would stay. This home feels like home and each year is better than the last. Clean, accommodating, lovely, perfect place to relax, great kitchen, fantastic pool, excellent lanai with outdoor bar, grill, darts and a pool table. It is a 3 minute walk down a gorgeous lane to the beach. There are kayaks, and bikes to use for exploring the island. And the house itself is so well maintained, you can see how much the owners care about providing the best place for guests to feel welcome. Hidden Beach House is a Hidden Gem!

Pat and Tom were so helpful. We met so many nice people and everyone was very accommodating. The island is a dream! No crowds, lots of wildlife, fun, and sun! Adrenalin Fishing Charter was the best! Love the outdoor pool and entertainment area. We are planning our next trip to North Captiva Island!!!!!

The house was terrific. The pictures do not do the house justice. The pool and outside area were large and a great place for our family to hang out.

Downstairs play area great for kids and upstairs lanai awesome for adults. The pool is heated a a pleasant addition to the house. We enjoyed out stay.

Perfect spot, lovely, quiet, close to the beach.

The property is so spectacular that I almost hesitate to discuss how great it is as I know I'm letting out the secret out of just how wonderful the location, condition, and amenities of this property. It's a short walk or short golf cart drive to any beach. The island is a dream.... If you want shopping malls and lots of restaurants, then this isn't for you. Back to the this great home, WOW!! It's an oasis of fun with a great area to enjoy the outdoors in the shade with a billiards area, outdoor bar, and hammocks everywhere that surround a very nice pool. What makes this property truly special is the care and love that Pat and Tom have invested into it and that is why this place is an A+ property. We WILL be back!! Thank you Pat and Tom and Lilly too! (Folks....please take good care of this property during your stay so we can all enjoy it once again!)

This house has everything you need for the perfect island and beach vacation! The house is welcoming, beautifully decorated, and comfortable in every way. We enjoyed the ability to be outside. The outdoor entertainment is incredible; swimming pool, darts, pool table, kayaks, bikes, and much more. We spent most of our time swimming in the pool, eating on the deck, and playing the many games. In addition, this house is in the perfect location; just a short walk down the road and you are at the beach. Our family of 5 (kids 14, 11, and 7) were able to comfortably enjoy every aspect of the house and the island. Thanks for providing us with a home away from home so that we could truly relax and enjoy island time!

Lot’s of amenities and a short (minutes) hop to any part of the Island. Plenty of comfortable beach chairs, kayaks (4), bicycles (12?) and two golf carts. All the best appliances. Caught a lot of fish off the beach while there. Shells always washing up on beach but most importantly, the beaches are beautiful and not crowded.

Okay, we are biased as this is our ninth year vacationing in paradise. Hidden Beach House continues to be better than the year before. Why? Well, the owners take pride in maintaining the property, if there is ever a problem, someone is available to help any time of day. (Did I mention we've never had a problem?) It's in a perfect location on a lane that leads directly to the beach -- some years it's a small step down -- this year it was a bigger step -- that's Mother Nature for you. We love to swim in the pool, sun on the beach, read books on the beach, sun at the pool -- rinse and repeat. The rooms are fantastic, the lanai is a perfect place to hang when you don't want to be in the sun. The appliances and kitchen are perfect for the type of cooking we do -- which by the way is mostly on the grill, which is outdoor in the lanai, which is by the pool. Bottom line - we'll be back. And you should come -- you won't regret it! D&L from Wisconsin

The house was clean, well stocked with linens and toys/games for the kids. Pat and Tom were very hospitable and made our stay memorable for all. Access to the golf carts made transportation on the island easy and fun to navigate. We will definitely be back.

We absolutely loved North Captiva & Hidden Beach House! One of the things we liked most about this house is that Pat & Tom have made use of the space underneath the house with a wooden deck, pool table, dart board, bar, mini-fridge, BBQ, hammocks & it all opens out to the pool. Probably 90% of all houses on the Island do not have a set-up anything like this so it really does differentiate the property from others on the island. Also, Pat & Tom were a joy to work with and we appreciated all of their personal touches to make our stay so enjoyable. So nice to have the golf cart for exploring the island with our young kids, they just loved the golf cart. We also thought the location of the house was perfect and found some of the beachfront properties can be very windy, so it was nice to hang out at our little oasis on very windy days. People will read in the reviews that the photos don't do it justice, and we couldn't agree more. Not sure when, but we will definitely be back to Hidden Beach House!

So much fun! They have all the things you need for a great beach vacation, chairs, towels, water and sand toys, bikes, kayaks, heated pool! My third time there and I will go back!
