You can’t get a better location than this house. It is on the best street. Close to the beach and all of the restaurants, shops, etc. The house is nice and comfortable and has anything and everything you need. It is awesome in every way!!!

Our group was a bunch of old college friends, and we had a wonderful time staying at this lovely home. Lots of areas to hang out and chat, both indoors and outdoors. Lovely decor on all floors. We really loved going to the tippy top of the house to watch sunset. Proximity to the beach, as well as ample beach chairs and umbrellas made our trips there so lovely. We can't wait to return! Brian and Anita are wonderful hosts, as well.

Place was nice. Big enough for 18 people including 8 adults. Thanks for the nice house. Great time. Beautiful weather. Nice community.

Ideally located for a short stroll to the beach the Tidewater Property offers almost everything you could want. The house is well maintained amply stocked with appliances, china, silverware, glassware, etc. for the whole family gathering. Our family of fourteen, 13 adults and one teen, had a great time. During the day at the beach until sunset and board games, relaxing, chatting and catching up in the evenings. Our granddaughter and her fiancée chose to get married on the beach telling the family just about six weeks prior to our stay. Excellent accommodations for all ( the newly weds departed in the early evening for a Keys honeymoon) . Beach items, e.g., chairs, wagon, boogie boards and much more all available at the property. Owner responded promptly when asked about about a house item. Hated to leave this wonderful haven and there's so much more we could say about this outstanding property.

That we’ve been coming to Captiva for several decades I know the area well. This home is perfectly located with easy walking to restaurants and the beach. What a wonderful place to relax with family and friends, as there’s something to do for everyone of all ages. We will definitely keep this property in mind for future visits.

We absolutely loved our stay at Tidewater. With 5 bedrooms, and 5 bathrooms each family had their own bedroom and bathroom with ample room and space. From the moment we entered the home we were all extremely surprised by how spacious the living room, dining room and kitchen were. A huge surprise was the ground level area surrounding the pool that is not shown in photos- a table for 6, an outdoor kitchen with 4 barstools, small refrigerator, and a grill, a daybed, and another seating area. This space plus the pool and spa are all screened in. The pool area is fenced off with a safety gate and in the afternoon this area was partially in the shade which was nice after being out in the sun earlier in the day on the beach. Outside the screened area is a sandy beach area with a corn hole game, and more seating. The garage has a refrigerator, several beach carts, beach umbrellas, and more beach chairs than you would ever need. There was room for a car in one side of the garage, but we used this space for several baby strollers. The driveway held our 5 SUVs and a golf cart. There is an ample supply of bath towels, and beach towels in the linen closets. The home is so well supplied that you only need to bring your suitcases and groceries. Everything and anything else you can imagine is most likely at the house. Best of all, Brian, our host, was very responsive before and during our stay. The landscape was changed due to Ian, but it did not detract from the natural beauty of Captiva.

Awesome house easily accommodated 10 adults. Perfect location - walk to beach , walk to restaurants and everything else a short drive (car or golf cart). Great pool/spa/grill area in back.

We vacationed at this property for a week with our large extended family comprised of 5 smaller families with 9 adults and 5 children. The property was perfect to accommodate our large group. Each family had their own sleeping space and bathroom. The main living areas have plenty of space to accommodate everyone whether it’s sitting down to eat or hanging out in the living room, porch or patio area by the pool. The kitchen has everything you’ll need if you plan to cook. The grill looked brand new. The beach is a very short walk down the street and there were rarely more than a handful of people there. The property has just about anything you could need for the beach… everything from coolers to sand toys. The pool is a little on the smaller side but it worked well for our group. There were some pool toys for the kids, too. If you’re considering this property I would just caution that the ground level space is definitely more ideal for kids. The inside stairs are a bit tricky to navigate. There are two sets of bunk beds and a futon. The kids loved the space but if you need to sleep adults down there they may not be as comfortable. Overall, a wonderful stay and we would definitely go again.

Our group of 7 adults and 5 kids loved this house. There was plenty of room for everyone. Even though it was hot, we enjoyed the outdoor spaces - the ceiling fans made it very comfortable! The house is a short walk from the beach, and there were plenty of chairs, umbrellas and beach toys to use. The pool was perfect for when we were done on the beach and we all enjoyed lots of pool time. The kitchen was well equipped and the bedrooms were comfortable. We rented a golf cart to get around the island and to carry things to and from the beach. We would definitely stay again!

Great

We had a magnificent time at this gorgeous 3 story home From the movement you drive up to this gorgeous home your transported to island vibes - we came in through the garage and immediately found a full refrigerator , beach chairs, and a ping pong table - anyone whose had a vacation near the beach knows how necessary a back up refrigerator is with al your beach drinks - then a fabulous ping pong table that literally entertained our teens every night for hours !! - the bunk room was amazing - it had a board games and a tv , futon sitting area where our kids set up their consoles - it has a huge bathroom that very conveniently led back outside - an outdoor shower right outside that door was so instrumental for rinsing off chairs , and feet before coming into the house - the pool and hot tub where screened in which was magical since it allowed us to be in the pool even during dusk (without mosquitoes) then you go upstairs to a gorgeous main living room , it had so many places to sit , and so many places to eat as well - definitely an entertainers dream - the kitchen was fully equipped and even had spices, oil, etc for basic cooking , the main level also boasts of two bedrooms and two full baths - this is where I stayed with my sons , then the upstairs master bedrooms , first , they were huge !!!!! The main master had an enournous bathroom and tub - the second master had a lovely balcony and staircase to a rooftop lounge which my girlfriends and I enjoyed nightly - now if all of that isn’t enough the location of this home is absolutely perfect - It was less than a minutes walk to the the beach - we set up all of our beach chairs on Monday and left them there all week until we had to leave - the beach was fabulous , the sabd perfect and the location couldn’t be better - it was also one steer down from the town market , stores, restaurants like the bubble room and mucky duck - I’ve been coming to Captiva / Sanibel for 10 years now and I can say this was the greatest stay weved had thanks to this home - it will definitely be our go to vacay location from now on !! 💕💕and the best part are the hosts! They were communicative and very attentive !!!! 5 ⭐️

My family and I had a great vacation. The house was large enough for our group of 18 with plenty of room to spread out. A short walk to a beautiful beach and plenty of shops and restaurants in walking distance. Brian is a great host and very accommodating and easy to communicate with. I would definitely stay here again!

Great location and large house suitable for large group.

My husband and I, 6 adult children/spouses, and a 1 year & 2 year old grandsons arrived at the beautiful house for 5 days. The location was perfect! We walked and took our golf carts all around Captiva. The beach was gorgeous, as well as the house. It was the perfect set up for our family. The house was fully stocked with everything we needed. Brian was quick to respond to my questions before we arrived, and even went and purchased 3 baby gates for us to use on the staircase for our little ones. We highly recommend this house and host if your travels take you to Captiva!

Our experience was great. The house was great. It had everything we needed plus more. Our whole experience was perfect!

House was amazing- well supplied w everything we needed. Excellent communication w host - very accommodating. Highly recommend this location!

We had an awesome stay! My husband and I brought our adult kids, their spouses, and our five grandchildren ranging in ages 4 to 11. The location is perfect! We walked to shops and restaurants. The beach is right at the end of our road! So ideal. The house is spacious and we all had our own spaces. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. We swam in the pool every day. There were plenty of pool toys and everything needed for the beach. Our host, Brian, was very responsive when we messaged questions. We love Captiva and this house provided a great place to stay and enjoy the island with our family.

Our family reunion of 7 adults and 9 children flowed seamlessly in this well-appointed house just half a block from the beach. There were plenty of places to be together or gather in small groups. The pool and hot tub were a big hit with the children and kept them completely satisfied when we weren’t at the beach. Captiva can be busy and highly populated, but Laikey Lane feels private while right in the middle of all the amenities. The house has all the beach equipment you could ever need. The crow’s nest at the top of the house was a treat for the older kids. You won’t be sorry to spend you vacation in this gem of a house..

Perfect location with a great house for families. Great and responsive host. Highly recommend.

Eight adults, ten children between ten- infant. House was fantastic! So many items provided we never lacked for anything we needed. Quiet neighborhood, yet walking distance to many restaurants, grocery store, and the beach! Pool, ping pong, even a keyboard! Very responsive host. Hope to go back.

Location and house were excellent, steps to beautiful uncrowded beach. Walking distance to several restaurants, shops and small grocery. Nice screened pool and hot tub and lots of other screened in outdoor spaces. Owner very responsive to questions.

nice house, but needs some tlc.

Five ladies stayed here for a girls weekend. So close to the beach and walking easily to all the best spots in Captiva. Large house with private bathrooms for all of us and great outdoor living spaces. Beds are very comfortable!

Very friendly home enjoyed our stay

We had such a lovely time staying at Tidewater! It is close to the beach and restaurants so we rarely drove anywhere. There was plenty of supplies for the beach (umbrella, chairs, toys, even wagons to take it all there!). There erte

Our post Christmas stay in Anita’s and Brian’s beautiful island home was a spectacular family vacation. The beautifully furnished house had everything you could possibly need. We were welcomed with a selection of four French wines and a delicious whiskey pound cake. We enjoyed a bottle at the Mad Hatter restaurant our last evening on Captiva Island. After discovering the controls on the pool and spa didn’t work, Brian promptly had the pool service check it out. A transformer needed to be ordered, so he patiently helped us operate everything manually. It was very apparent that Brian wanted our week to be as pleasant as possible. . We all enjoyed walking the short distance to the beach at least twice daily. And being so close to Doc Ford’s, Mucky Duck, Bubble Room, and other restaurants was yet another bonus. We can’t wait to return to tropical Captiva again and experience Anita’s and Brian’s island hospitality.

At first glance I could tell the house was beautiful and spotless - what a treat!

The house is beautiful. Tons of room and a perfect lay out. Lots or porches and patios. A very short walk to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend staying here!!!

There were 12 of us, ranging in age from 3 to 73. We all had our private space when needed and our family space too! Close walk to the beach. My grandkids loved, loved the bunk room, spa and pool. Great house....

Enjoyed our stay. Large house easily accommodates extended family. Beach chairs and umbrellas provided. Very convenient

We had a great time with girlfriends at the house but there are several issues that need attention. Bunk area downstairs has no Air conditioner vents in the sleeping area therefore it is warm down there.Flooring on the main level needs major repair in several areasWater pressure bad in the entire houseMaster shower appears to be leaking and ceiling in the living room is wet and discoloredElectrical outlets in all bathrooms are so low you can’t plug blow dryers inSofa in the living room very uncomfortableThere is one drawer in the refrigerator and the freezer that is broken

I highly recommend this location. The communication was timely a mechanical issue quickly addressed. Very close to the beach while our secluded retreat. Walkable to Captiva restaurants and stores
