Lovely property!

I highly recommend staying at this lovely island home. The home design is perfect, and the porch is beautiful. The slab floor of the porch decreases the mosquitos; therefore, you can enjoy sitting outside longer. The island itself is paradise. We love visiting every year.

Not good

NCIC is still a train wreck. Showed up with no reservation, only one key for 5 people, and NO NO internet. We reached out to property owner and manager and never heard back from either. The house is fine but all else really sucked. When we wanted questions answered no one cared.

Fully Decompressed!

Wonderful home & location close to NCIC pool/bar/office at one end of Schooner Rd and beach access close to the other end. We enjoyed very minute on the amazing second floor screened-in porch complete with ceiling fans and the attached open-air deck. And great night’s sleep in the comfy & clean beds with ice-cold AC our last two nights when the humidity outside spiked. Wi-Fi coverage was not the best throughout the home. But then again that may be by design in such an amazing place! Many thanks to the wonderful host - Margie!

Great experience

The owner was very helpful as we prepared for our first visit to the island, and the house was just as advertised. We were looking for an unplugged, relaxing getaway and this home was the perfect fit. Highly recommend!

Most relaxing vacation!

Everything about this trip was fantastic! The house was wonderful! Clean, comfortable and big enough for everyone to have their space! The house is perfectly situated on the island...4 minutes to the beach...a short ride to the 2 pools and boat dock. Everyone is so helpful on the island. The owner of this property was wonderful! If we had a question she was always right there with an answer! I would recommend this house and owner to anyone! We hope to be back soon! This island is the closest thing to going out of the country without leaving the USA! Thank you Margie for a wonderful week that we will never forget!

About the host

Hosted by Margie Klueber

We visited North Captiva Island and were immediately charmed by its unique character. For us it was the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the Northeast, Though we weren't quite sure whether our young adult children would be equally charmed, they, too fell in love with this island getaway.
