Relaxing Captiva
We loved staying at this property. The house is beautifully decorated and clean. We cooked every dinner at the house and found the kitchen well stocked. This was our first time staying on North Captiva and it’s delightful. We enjoyed the uncrowded beaches and exploring the island. Our kids enjoyed biking around the island and watching the manatees.

Great stay and well thought out
We've rented at least 15 different homes on NCap over the years, and I cannot think of another that was a better experience. The home had the best equipped kitchen, with supplies/equipment/plenty of high end small wares. Additionally, the management team has thought of, and anticipated everything. The home is so well equipped with everything you will need for a fantastic visit. Nearly brand new golf cart. You will not be disappointed with this home.

Secluded Paradise
North Captiva is a beautiful secluded island. Our VRBO, Seashell Escape was only a minute walk from the beach. It was very well stocked and we had everything 5 of us needed to spend the day on the beach; chairs, coolers, wagon, towels, and golf cart to explore the island. Our house managers Kim and Kate were the best! They returned any of our messages promptly and took great care in meeting any requests! They are top notch. Also Deb who shops and delivers groceries is awesome and kept in contact with us from when we ordered to making sure we had everything once we settled into our house. The captains on Island Girl Charter were great. Also need to recommend our Chef Bo from Coastal Eats. He was fantastic and prepared a delicious 4 course meal! This VRBO has a great team to make your vacation a dream!
