Using this Captiva Island vacation rental as your base, simply enjoy relaxing on the beach, collecting some of the shells for which Captiva is famous, swim in the Gulf of Mexico, fish for some of Captiva's well-known gamefish (right off the beach or the dock)... or go biking, kayaking, parasailing, golfing, boating, bird watching, surfing... And for your off-beach entertainment this vacation rental home has a heated pool plenty of modern amenities inside, including Direct TV in the living room with with VHS and DVD, Smart TV in the bedrooms, and wireless internet. Your pet may be accepted with prior approval, and we expect the following: dogs stay off furniture and beds, are not left unsupervised and will be crated if left unattended indoors. You need to vacuum after your pet if it sheds excessively and pick up after your dog.

The property was beautiful! The house was spacious and the beds were comfortable. The pool was large enough for the 4 of us with floats and it was surrounded by tropical vegetation. The dock was a great hangout spot to look for wildlife. The beach was located directly across the street and we virtually had the beach to ourselves all week. It’s close to great restaurants and a few souvenir shops. We couldn’t have asked for anything else!
Perfect location. Property very clean. Margarethe and husband very pleasant and helpful with their introduction to Captiva and Sanibel. Did not fish from the dock but it was in a great location. Very quiet in the evening. Everything was as advertised
We had a great time and everything in the listing was exactly as advertised. Pool on the property is very nice and private. Landscaping on the property is serene and access to the dock is great! Thank you for a great stay!
Even though you can’t see the water from the home, the private beach was so relaxing and enjoyable. The owners were very responsive to our needs and made us feel very welcome.
The house is wonderful, comfortable, and has the best of everything we want…pool, beach, fishing. They are lovely hosts and make your stay so easy and enjoyablbd
The Captiva Vacation Home was very welcoming to us and our pets. We didn't use the laundry service but did use the house washer and dryer and they were great.
Wow!! What a beautiful location and home! We were able to go to the beach down a very short path. We went for long walks on the beach every morning! Then would swim in the private pool in the afternoon! Then would go back to the beach to watched the beautiful sunset every night! The house was very nice and roomy!The host is very extremely friendly and the response was always fast.Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home!!
Home is spacious, clean with comfortable beds! Short walk to an expansive, beautiful private beach. Fishing off the dock was FANTASTIC - many fish dinners! Pool is wonderful encased in landscaping that was both beautiful and provided great privacy. This landscaping was throughout the entire property. Hosts could not have been better. All in all, a perfect vacation. Already booked for next year!
It was a wonderful Christmas getaway for everyone in our family. The location could not be more perfect, and the host welcomed us to use all the amenities. The house is beautiful and comfortable, with everything one could need. The gardens and the pool were fantastic. An easy walk to the beach or the dock for fishing made it hard to leave the property to do anything else. We hope to be able to return someday. Thank you so much!!
We had a wonderful time at this property. The location is convenient and beautiful. Tons of wildlife to see at the private dock and amazingly private beach. Highly recommend!
Well appointed and serene, the home, pool, and property created the perfect vacation. The beach is pristine and feels private and is just a very short walk, making it easy to enjoy without the hassle of packing everything up. Just walk over any time of day to enjoy! Our hosts were friendly and helpful, and Sanibel and Captiva are not to be missed. The spirit and warmth of the people are like no other. We were so happy to be part of the islands’ recovery from Ian. Wonderful experience and highly recommend!
We simply love the property and all it provides ! The house is awesome , indoor pool is beautiful, dock perfect for fishing relaxing and watching dolphins. Plus the beach is very close as well. Lastly the owners are fantastic! Highly recommend this property !
This guest house was clean, comfy, and had all the equipment needed for cooking etc. The use of the dock on the water was very cool, and being across the street from the beach was great. We biked everywhere pretty much. We have always stayed on Sanibel but this was lovely.
We have stayed in this beautiful home before, and will be back again next year. The beach is easy to get to, the pool is very nicely secluded, the home is laid out well and has everything we needed, including kitchen items. The beds are very comfortable. The boys loved fishing off the dock.
