A wonderful get-away!

This property was beautifully located and perfectly maintained. We were comfortable and enjoyed this perfectly stocked condo. It had everything one could possibly want. It was lovely inside and out. We enjoyed the view and the comfortable balcony for eating and relaxing. Being fully screened was a bonus. Living in Florida, we expect a lot for our coastal get-aways, and this property was a win. We look forward to a return stay!

paradise found

VRBO needs a six star rating for hostess who go above and beyond to ready a condo after a major hurricane. Exactly as described, very clean, nicely furnished, second floor balcony with views of sunsets every day. There are repairs ongoing but that means no crowds. We had two weeks of the place to ourselves. Steps to uncrowded quiet beaches and lots of shells. This is exactly what my wife and I were seeking for our 52nd anniversary. Thank you Elizabeth for letting us share your condo. I can't think of anything that could have been better

Perfect location!

We've been coming to Captiva for the last ten years staying in various condos in the same area. You can't beat the location, steps from the beach and very close to shops and restaurants. Just park the car and enjoy! Although all the places we've stayed are very nice I would say this one has been the best. Very tastefully decorated along with everything you need for your stay. We were there for ten days and Elizabeth made sure we had plenty of towels, even for the beach. The beach chairs and umbrellas were in good shape. Most places we've stayed they've been old and rusty with pieces of broken umbrellas. Especially the condos listed as luxury... There was no need to reach Elizabeth as everything was perfect! Would highly recommend this unit!

Perfect getaway

Perfectly described. The unit was clean and comfortable. Super short walk to the pool and beach. Sunsets were absolutely magical. Everything we needed was in a short distance from the unit (post office, Boops for sorbet, ice cream, the Green Flash was delicious for dinner with a wonderful view of the bay, to name a few).* be sure to take your phone in case the wifi on the door lock is spotty and needs to be reset by the host. Elizabeth responded so quickly and had us back in our room within a minute or two. We would definitely return! Captiva is just breathtaking and this unit did not disappoint.

A Beautiful Property

The property was beautiful with a direct view of the gulf and spectacular sunsets from the unit balcony. There was also a nice pool between the unit and the ocean and a boardwalk out to the beginning of the beach which was very nice. The unit itself was very clean and everything was as advertised and I was able to access the apartment directly with the code provided by Elizabeth. It was not necessary to stop in an office on arrival or departure. Elizabeth was also very responsive to any questions I had and offered some good tips for the area. The unit is located very near the entrance of the resort which made it an easy walk to Captiva's main drag of Andy Rosse Lane. If you are after the Captiva experience this is a great place to stay. On the other side if you think Sanibel and Captiva are basically the same, they aren't. Captiva is a great little beach town, very condensed and walkable. Sanibel Island, which is right next to Captiva Island separated by a small bridge, is much larger, generally not walkable but with bike trails all over the island and many natural areas, such as Ding Darling National Wildlife Refuge and gulf side beaches. The drive from the resort in Captiva to Ding Darling NWR is 20 minutes and most Sanibel shops and restaurants are still farther. With that said this WAS a great place to stay in Captiva!

Excellent beach getaway

The property is beautiful, clean, well-supplied and perfectly located on the beach. The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. Although renters cannot use the resort’s amenities (including restaurants), the host has supplied great beach chairs, umbrellas and toys so that’s not an issue. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is because it’s not possible to adjust the temperature of the unit yourself. I’ve never encountered this before. As northerners starved for fresh air, we would have loved to turn the unit off in order to open the sliding door to the breeze and sound of the surf. Excellent stay, though, even so.

Sweet Spot on Captiva

This is a nice old style 1 bedroom condo/apt. It only has a view on one large sliding glass door, but it is a great view. There is also a nice lanai with the same beautiful view. There are no laundry facilities in the apt., but there are one available in the building. The location is perfect, if you like to walk on the beach. It is not a crowded area right now, as many units and other houses are under construction. Shop before you get there, so you can spend your time on the beach, instead driving to get groceries. Elizabeth is an excellent host. She friendly, responsive and informative.

Beautiful Villa on Water!

We loved our stay at Captiva! It was truly a vacation in paradise. We recognize there was some construction from the storms, but we focused on the beauty of the beach, the wildlife, the sunsets, the shells, and the water. Our meals at area restaurants were amazing! It was truly an amazing trip. Our villa was very clean, well-stocked, and we did not want the long weekend to end.
