Fantastic Island Getaway at Sunset Captiva 48
THE BEST LOCATION ON CAPTIVA!
More than 30 restaurants have reopened and our unit has no damage!
Welcome to Sunset Captiva #48! Sunset Captiva #48 is an extraordinary vacation home for up to six. It is located right in the Captiva Village Center, where you’ll find it so convenient to step out for coffee or a snack, shop at the Island Store, or enjoy a meal at one of the fine restaurants! Steps from the world famous Mucky Duck, where you can enjoy the best sunsets and live music on the island! Both the beach and bay are an easy stroll, all within the Sunset Captiva community.
#48 is located on a cul-de-sac at the very end of Oster Court. The home feels secluded: nearly hidden in a thriving tropical forest and garden. Within the wall of greenery is a private lawn area with outdoor seating including a picnic table, with a separate staircase up to the rear lanai. Also on the ground level you'll find an outdoor shower and sand-rinse, plus a shell sorting bench for after your beach forays. There are 2 bikes for your use, along with a collection of beach supplies: umbrellas, chairs, toys, a beach cart, and more. Please note we provide these items for the convenience of our guests-we cannot guarantee their condition or functionality. Guests and environmental conditions are very tough on these items. If you require top notch/brand new items there are local rental companies to provide them.
The main-level screened lanai is a great gathering place and has an outdoor dining table, and cushioned seating for five with new furniture.
The upper level sundeck faces east to catch the morning and midday sunshine while enjoying some afternoon shade. One end has two loungers and a table, while the other end has two wicker chairs, a table, and a storage chest. This sundeck is accessible through either bedroom suite, and is exceptionally private - perfect for morning coffee or sunbathing.
The living room has a sectional with chaise, and a chair with ottoman - all facing the fireplace and HDTV with 200+ channels and a 3D BluRay / DVD player (fireplace is not functional). Adjoining is the dining room with seating for six, and a bar with cabinets, stemware, and wine supplies.
The kitchen is stocked with utensils: if you have it at home, its probably here too (including a Keurig coffee maker). The refrigerator / freezer offers filtered water and ice. The appliances have recently been replaced and the countertops are new quartz. The laundry room has full size washer / dryer, and a large library of DVDs for old school movie nights. Also on the main level is a guest half bath (powder room).
#48 is set up to be a family-friendly home, and kids are most welcome (but pets are not).
***Queen sized air mattress available upon advanced request.
Upstairs are two bedroom suites plus a sleeping nook with built in bunk beds. The master suite has a new king bed and mattress topper, a full-size dresser with mirror, a TV hutch with additional drawers and an HDTV. You can watch the sunset from the master bed, though we recommend witnessing it from the beach! The extra-wide bathroom vanity has plenty of surface area. Opposite the vanity is a full closet with two gliding mirrored doors. Through a pocket door is the separate chamber with toilet and shower, plus linen closet. The spa-like shower stall is double size and features four body spray heads in addition to the rain shower head. Continuing on is a door opening onto the upper-level sundeck.
The guest suite has two twin beds, a full-size dresser plus a tall chest of drawers, an HDTV and DVD player, and another door to the sundeck. There is a full closet plus a linen closet. The bathroom has a two-sink vanity and a separate toilet / shower chamber with tub.
A short walk from the unit and within Sunset Captiva you will find 3 large gas grills, 2 tennis/pickle ball courts, and the pool - all available for guest use at no charge (subject to availability and maintenance). Also within Sunset Captiva you will find a dock with slips on an as available basis.
Steps from the unit is YOLO - the perfect place to rent anything else you would like to enjoy during your vacation - including golf carts, wave runners, and sailboats!
