About this property
Modern 2BR + Loft Retreat with Bay-View Deck & Steps to Beach w/ Bunk Beds
* SPECIAL !!! $1995 June - October 2024 ! Open weeks only. *
Sunset Captiva #51 is a bright two-bedroom home with a loft (including a day bed) and a new sleep sofa in the living room (sleeps 6 maximum). Each bedroom has a queen bed and the guest bedroom also has a twin bed loft to provide guests with flexibility in sleeping options.
A warm Floridian interior welcomes visitors to island life on Captiva in Sunset Captive #51. Located just a short walk to the Sunset Captiva beachfront access and Bayside docks, guests can have it all during their stay in this single-family home–with shared but quiet beach access as well as a dock for guests with a boat (reconstruction of a new dock planned for Fall 2023!).
Looking for something to do? Restaurants and shops are just a short stroll from your front door to the Captiva Village. Restaurants offer various cuisines–and some offer live nightly entertainment–all are very close to Sunset Captiva. A variety of activities, including parasailing, fishing, sea kayaking, day cruising, shopping, shelling, and walking on endless sandy beaches all can be arranged right on Captiva. While you’re just more than 60 minutes from the Fort Myers (RSW) airport, you’ll feel like you’re far from civilization in this remote beach village. Take just a short drive to Sanibel Island and find Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge, golf, local churches, a grocery store, and other restaurants and shops. So whether you want to be busy exploring all that these islands have to offer, or you just want to get lost in a book away from it all, Sunset Captiva #51 is the place for you!
A large sun deck with bay views spans the upper level. Below it is a shaded screened lanai with teak furniture, including a dining table for outdoor dining night or day.
The Sunset Captiva community has all-new landscaping and will have a new dock, swimming pool, and tennis & pickleball courts planned for reconstruction following Hurricane Ian. Sunset Captiva #51 has outdoor spaces with both warm sunshine and a shady lower level for a quiet, cool, and private place to relax. An outdoor shower allows for a quick rinse when returning from the beach.

We were very satisfied with our stay at 51 Sunset Captiva. Property was clean and very comfortable, located within close walking distance to the beach and several restaurants in the heart of Captiva Island. Our only complaint would be the clothes washing machine - it is extremely loud when doing laundry and not located in an area where a door can be shut to minimize the noise.

The house was very nice and had a lot of room..the kitchen was very well equipped..the washer had a few issues and very loud but we managed for the two weeks..the tv was different when there is no cable for people that are not used to using the other options it’s rough we had local channels and found a couple of programs too watch, but would have liked the option of more....the pool was awesome!!!! We were there every day cause we’re not beach people.. the grills were very nice we did use them.. the house was clean, I did a few things but that’s just me!!! Very impressed with all the work that has been done and being worked on..glad too see the great progress!!

Well decorated, clean and provided more then expected. They had beach toys for children, booster seat, pack and play, stool for little ones, fans on screened in deck, w/d, so much more. Only complaint was the bed in the room, without the bunk, was very uncomfortable. This has been written up in previous reviews. Otherwise, perfect.

Reviewer Comments:
With George out the experience at Sunset Captiva was a little different. Overall we had a good stay but when we did need anything from the Mgmt company and asked or reported issues, it all depends what staff member you get as to how that experience goes. Most the interactions were positive but one in particular was not.
