About this property

Nirvana Beachfront 3 Bedroom / 3 Bath House

Nirvana is right on the beachfront at the beginning of Captiva Drive. The vacation house has a private, heated pool. This is a unique beachfront location on Captiva, where the shoreline of our tropical island curves. So the panoramic view is spectacular from your 120 feet of beach frontage! The area seems to abound with wildlife, especially the playful porpoise.

Nirvana has three bedrooms plus a sleeper sofa in the living room, for up to 8 guests. The big porch overlooks the beach, so you can watch sunsets, dolphins, sea birds, and gentle waves. Let the sound of the gentle surf soothe you to sleep at night in tranquil Nirvana!

Beautiful home, great view, great shelling, wonderful service

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is lovely. 2 ensuite bedrooms with king beds...one on the upper floor. There is also a bedroom with bunk beds (queen/twin) that has its own bathroom in the hallway. Screened in porch. Great views from the kitchen, 2 ensuites and porch. Lovely kitchen - well equipped. Overall a top-notch rental home.Easy walk along the beach to Turner Beach where the shelling is great. And you can walk across the bridge to the other side (Blind Pass beach) where shelling is also good. If you are here for shelling, you'll love this.Management company (American Realty) is great to work with. They are quick to respond to any questions and to fix anything that is an issue. My only complaint this year was that the bugs were worse than usual due to the hurricanes. Hopefully this will rapidly resolve.

Pleasantly Surprised

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Based on previous reviews, I wasn't expecting much. I can only surmise that previous renters had unrealistic expectations. I found the property to be delightful! Loved the location, the privacy, the pool and spa, the enormous screened porch, and the balcony off the master bedroom. The bed and furniture were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Definitely recommend this rental!

Best vacation home experience we have ever had

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is fantastic. It was beautiful inside and outside. The cleaning was the best we have ever experienced in a vacation rental. This is our 20th family vacation, and we always like to go to a different location each year. This was the first time my family is considering coming back to this same house. THIS HOME IS REALLY GOOD! In addition to being a great house, it is on a stretch of uncrowded beach. I can’t say enough good things about this place.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the 4th Captiva beach home we've rented over the last 10 years. This was our favorite. Two gripes... the mattress in the master bedroom was completely broken down and had no box springs under it. Very surprising given the cost of this weekly rental. As good as the house was, the master bed was as equally bad. Also, the dishwasher did not wash dishes at all. We did call maintenance the last day of our rental just to make sure they were aware. All in all, this house is great. Just these two cheap fixes and we would have had zero complaints.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have used American Reality for a number of years.While it was an okay location, the pool was not clean and was not working properly and American Reality basically blamed us. For the kind of money spent I would not expect the pool problem or the response.

Needs updated and a good cleaning to match the rental fee.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Decent property. Not cheap to rent. So why are these must-haves neglected?Pool water remained stagnant most of the time. When the filter was re-set by us, the water movement was slow. The pool water was hot. Not refreshing at all. Floating in leaves, dead flowers and bugs. The landscaping around the pool was beautiful and fragrant. Noise from the road while in the pool was bothersome.The views of the ocean from the kitchen, living room and back deck were stunning. The kitchen cabinets handles, and surrounding cabinets were grimy and sticky. Drawers need wiped out and scrubbed. Small appliances and dishware are adequate. Worn and older. The refrigerator was big and kept items nice and cold.Patch old holes and paint. Walls are nicked up. Bathrooms are smallish. Toilets are low, low to the ground. Drawers in bathroom had random Q-tips and stray long hair in them. Clean it please.MBR is spacious. Need blinds on the window for late sleepers. Currently has sheer curtains that are missing tabs and hang askew. Closet has dark spots on ceiling. Did not hand clothes there.Other bedroom closet doors swing out off the top rails. Holes in walls by the bed where I assume sconce lights used to be.Cannot smoke cigars on the deck or pool area. We did not. Do enjoy a drink and cigar as the sun sets so had to go to the beach. Keep that in mind. Layout of the house is great. Full sized washer and dryer worked wonderfully. Cheap on the dishwasher tabs as we were left only 4 and were requested to wash the last load before we left. Squeaked by with the amount of toilet paper. Kitchen table is large and glass. No cleaning stuff to clean it so we bought some. I mean come on. A little more consideration is all that is needed.Would not rent again as I don't like to stay in vacation places that are 'less than' my home environment. Deep cleaned and painted should be a

Nirvana was absolutely that!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: we rented Nirvana for a week with my parents, sister and 2 daughters, and it was amazing all the way around. Perfect location, steps from beach, wonderful pool, patio where you can see the beach....perfect for our group. The house could use some improvement (holes in wall, needs paint) We will be back....

Beautiful and challenging

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was on an absolutely fantastic piece of property. There was a huge lanai that was the length of the house which is considerable. The best weather I’ve ever had in Captiva on any vacation. Challenges there were a few. First thing we noticed is 1 . The refrigerator was not keeping the food cold and they sent over the appliance repair man who did a fabulous immediate job . 2. Is that we could not get towels to dry they kept sending people over to fix it that didn’t have a clue. The pool was filthy and the maintenance guy kept telling me it was good I own a pool I know a clean pool. they didn’t even have the filter on. Once we do did get everything remedied which took a good half of our vacation we had a most wonderful time. Going to give it another try for 2023

Perfect location and lovely home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental.

Home is very well maintained. We have stayed here multiple times. Captiva is a quiet peace of heaven - beyond the crowd in Sanibel.

Overall, this is a wonderful spot. The house is spacious, the view is phenomenal, and it has a homey comfort feel. However, as other reviewers have noted ( and the property manager) the house is showing its age inside & out. Doors are jammed, paint is peeling, the pool & hot tub are chipped, rust is throughout, the furnishings are dated & worn. However, even with these irregularities, we had a great time and re-booked for next year ( with the promise of renovations),

Priceless Views

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This location is all about the views and beach access. Dream location on captiva. The back porch and pool area was amazing. The house could use some tlc inside. Only negative is the bugs. House was full of bugs by day 4 and most of us had multiple bug bites.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was quite nice and the view lovely. However, it was quite close to a public beach and very close to the road. It certainly needed a lot of work done to the house. - both inside and out.

Nirvana is a Delight

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: American Realty makes it very easy - and also worked with us extensively to help nail down Nirvana in the midst of the pandemic. Check-in was easy, whenever we had questions they responded quickly, and the house was in great shape when we arrived. Though its front is near the road, the house is totally configured towards the back and the gulf so you spend the vast majority of your time in the family room and massive screen porch facing the Gulf. It's a great vacation house and we had a great vacation experience (as usual) with American Realty.

Nice Place

Overall the property fit the use case for a family with two kids: A spacious house, a well-equipped kitchen for eating in, and right on the beach. The asset is a little tired around the edges, though, and badly needs paint and an upgrade in mattresses. It's not something you mind terribly when there for a week it does factor in when thinking about a second reservation. Regarding some comments from other reviews: Bugs/insects were not an issue at all. Future renters would be well advised, though, to bring in all food before they cross the bridge (including salt and pepper!). Shopping on the islands is expensive and it takes a strangely long time to travel small distances.

Location can't be beat... House is becoming a little dated....but, we spent almost all of our time out on the back deck or on the beach anyway, so who minds some outdated furniture and decor? :-) The screened in deck is perfect!

Family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Location was great. House was kinda quirky but served its purpose. Closeness to beach and the pool was very nice. Linens and towels were plentiful. It would have been nice to have some basics like salt and pepper. There was some hand soap samples and dishwasher soap and some trash bags. Biggest issue was bugs. I know it’s the beach but it was impossible to leave a boxed food item on counter without being infested by bugs, this despite home appearing very clean. We will choose another property for future visits.
