About this property
Modern 2-Bedroom Retreat Steps from Captiva Beach
Sol Mate Too is a complete vacation home that only steps down a short path to the beach. It is near Sol Mate, and together they make a wonderful and unusually private vacation complex for up to 20 guests total. Two sets of stairs lead down to the landscaped grounds, with sand and shell paths through the tropical flowers and plantings. A generous sundeck on the west side (typically shaded by the banyan tree in the hotter part of the afternoon) is furnished and has a gas grill, as well as a hot outdoor shower for rinsing after a swim in the Gulf.
This modern abode is perched in the trees on the second floor. The clean and bright interior opens onto the porch which runs the entire length of the front. Two sets of three-panel sliding glass doors may be rolled away to give the feeling of an open treehouse facing toward the beach (partial view).
The interior is freshly painted, with new carpet, new bedding, and window treatments. This is a delightful place to unwind and enjoy the great Captiva weather. Being this close to the beach is really convenient – no long walks on hot pavement! There are televisions in both bedrooms and in the living room. Covered parking for two cars is provided under the building.
The primary bedroom suite occupies the northeast part of the house. It has a private bathroom with a tub and shower.
The guest suite is on the southeast and has two twin beds. The en suite bathroom also has a tub and shower.
For additional guests, there is a queen-size sleep sofa in the living room.
All reservations/cancellations are subject to the terms and conditions (policies) of the American Realty Rental Agreement once the reservation is booked through third-party platforms.

Wonderful location. Beautiful views of the beach. Had a wonderful family stay. Love the crew at American realty.
We had a wonderful stay at this sweet cottage. New construction blocks the full view but there’s still enough view to see sunset from the lanai! Location is fabulous. The beds are queens and extremely firm but other than that, the cottage has everything you’d need. Albert at American Realty was absolutely wonderful. Excellent vacation!

Property was clean and comfortable and owner very responsive. Kitchen decently equipped and unit has a washer and dryer. There’s one property in front of this one so there’s just a partial ocean view but access to the beach is very easy and convenient with a pathway that gets you there in 30 seconds. We appreciated the beach chairs, towels, and umbrella. Overall it was an enjoyable stay for our family.

There were problems with the dishwasher, the door will not shut properly and it was extremely difficult to get it to function properly. There is a problem with the TV in the living room. I called regarding its operation and some one from the office came over and HE also had problems with it. It appears that one of the electric receptacles may be faulty, but as it turns out I had to unplug the TV and replug it into another receptacle each time I wanted to turn it on. It worked then but the process was a nuisance.

We couldn't get to Captiva last year, due to hurricane damage. This year our usual cottage still was not ready, so we took this larger house for a shorter period. It is very roomy and nice, with a great place to sit outside and a short walk to the beach. It is more than we need, so we are hoping to go back to the cottage next year, but this would be our second choice

We had a lovely escape from Upstate NY for a long birthday weekend. The home was exactly what we were hoping for - two minutes to walk to the beach, close enough to the ocean to hear the waves crashing, plenty of space to stretch out. We'd love to stay here again on our next Captiva getaway!

Staying at SOLMATE TOO last week was such pleasure. It is a delightful space and although not ocean front we enjoyed a small, but lovely view of the beach between the trees and the sound of waves rolling in. The house was so comfortable and the lanai a pleasure to sit on anytime of the day. Clean, nicely equipped, conveniently located and tastefully decorated, it made for an especially enjoyable and relaxing getaway. (PS - Management great to work with!)

This house was perfect for 3 or 4 people. The house itself was nice and clean upon arrival. There’s a nice partial ocean view from the lanai, which was great for sitting and eating outside. The location to the beach was fantastic. Only a 30 second walk. We were also in walking distance to a number of shops and restaurants. We’d absolutely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
The photographs of this property show it at its prime, which is not the way it feels now. The rusting/mildewing front door of the refrgerator sums up the current status of the place. There are numerous ways that it is in need of TLC. If it received that, it could be a very comfortable place. There is the exterior problem of the septic area (the leach field that was very smelly at times) that you have to walk by on your way to the beach. The smells also deflect from the pleasure of sitting on the lanai at times. Not sure how that one gets solved. I hope Captiva joins Sanibel in its waste water management and gets away from all its septic systems.

Reviewer Comments:
House is in a great location with gorgeous tropical landscaping only steps from the beach and just a few blocks from town. It looks out at a large house that blocks the ocean view, but those guests were usually on the opposite side of their house other than when parking, so noise was never an issue.The interior of the house is small but sufficient for 2-4 people. The furnishings are worn, dated and minimal. For example, 4 basic wicker chairs at the dining table that no longer have cushions. Huge sliding doors almost the length of the house, but no curtains or blinds for privacy. The metal frame in the upholstered chair in the living area has torn through the fabric and is a health hazard.The kitchen was well stocked, although the refrigerator door has rust and the dishwasher cleans but doesn't dry. Other appliances are newer. There were plenty of bath and beach towels and bed linens.It was great to be able to open the sliding doors onto the screened porch for fresh air and more space, but the porch frame and railings are peeling, rusted, moldy and very unattractive. The cranks are missing from some of the bedroom and bath windows which prevents them from opening.Master bath pocket door wouldn't close, but American Realty did have it repaired while we were there. Overall they were good to work with and were very receptive to our requests.House was fairly clean except for the stains in the bedrooms' carpet and living area throw rugs. The house has the makings to be very attractive and comfortable with some repairs and upgrades.
