Professionally run rental unit. Welcome packet provided all of the information that you need so I didn't have to reach out to the owner about anything. The house is beautiful, has everything that you would need and the customer service at the club was fantastic. This is the perfect location to get away.

I would recommend staying here to anyone! We brought our two young children and the accommodations were great. The availability to utilize the North Captiva Island Club amenities was invaluable! Our girls loved the pool! Federico had floaties and buckets/toy shovels so the kids could have fun in either the pool or the ocean. Excited to plan our trip back!

Our stay at Frederico's condo was really nice!! The condo felt like it was centrally located on the island, we were close to the sunset and sunrise, it was very quiet and the scenery was amazing! We would definitely recommend Frederico's home to others., he was a fantastic host!!

federico was very helpful and available to any questions we had. the house is in a great location right near the beach. would recommend to friends and certainly consider returning.

North Captiva was amazing and so was the stay at Federico's. The house came with everything that was needed for a comfortable stay. If any questions arose, Federico was readily available to respond back (always within minutes). I hope to travel back to north captiva soon and would definitely stay at Federico's again!

Just as the description says, it is a very short walk to the beach. The rental was exactly as described, and Federico was very helpful, quickly responding to our questions. We would certainly rent from Federico again.

I loved staying at Federico's place. It was close to the clubhouse and pool and close to the beach. The property had just about everything you could want. My bed was very comfortable. Multiple decks. Very well furnished. Three hammocks, beach chairs. Very nice place. The cable TV service was a little inconsistent, but I didn't go there to watch TV. I could have done that at home. I struggled with the Jacuzzi, but that could have been my unfamiliarity with Jacuzzi's. Federico was very responsive to my calls and texts messages. I loved my stay.

We had a great time in Captiva Island. It's the perfect place to get away for a relaxing, secluded, car-free vacation. Federico's cottage is conveniently located just a short walk to the beach and had all of the amenities we needed to relax and enjoy the trip. Federico was helpful and responsive when I had any questions. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking to disconnect and enjoy pristine beaches with lots wildlife and natural beauty.

Exactly what we wanted for a stressfree family vacation. Plenty of space, upscale appliances, clean, nice furniture

The Coral Reef House was so cute and great for a family or friends getaway. The house was clean and even stocked with bathing towels, beach towels, tide, beach chairs, umbrellas, cornhole, ping pong, etc. The pool was smaller than expected, but it was perfect to just hang out in after a day at the beach. I recommend going through Island Girl Charters- definitely easy and Sherman picks you up with the golf cart and trailer.

The host canceled this reservation 99 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

This is a sweet little house in a great location - a short walk to a beautiful pool or golf cart ride to the beach. The area's natural beauty was one of the highlights of our trip, with lush vegetation and an abundance of beautiful birds and other animals like a Gopher Tortoise who lived in the yard. The kids loved riding around in the golf cart and it was a break not having to put them in car seats! The house was very comfortable with new bathrooms and comfy beds. The kitchen is a little dated but not a huge deal on vacation. Carolyn was very kind and helpful, quick to answer all of our questions and fix what was needed, i.e. the grill. With kids ages 4 and 19 months, the spiral staircase was a little stressful but we figured it out. Overall, a beautiful, relaxing place to stay!

This location, house, island and all are second to none. If you are looking for a real lily amazing island experience this is for you. Kevin and team are easy to work with while simultaneously being attentive to needs/questions. Kevin and his caretakers are a wealth of information on how to enjoy time on a remote island. The fishing is out of this world. The home has a great kitchen with everything you need to enjoy your stay. It's obvious the homeowner has spent a significant amount of time here and has plenty of kitchen utensils and cookware. I highly recommend staying at this home in safety harbor club as there are several little things that make the stay much easier and enjoyable. Dock access, pool, club access, carts, tennis courts and more. The home has a great sleeping set up with the rooms nicely furnished. Beach towels, linens, laundry set up were great. The location cloud not to be better either. The house is right in the middle of safety harbor right by the pool. We stayed a month and had no issues whatsoever. We will return next May/June to repeat this amazing experience. We shed so much luggage and still brought too many clothes. Can't wait to get back.

Great location.

Great location next to the Safety Harbor Club's tennis courts and pool! The visit to North Captiva Island is definitely a time to unplug and explore all it has to offer. We took a boat tour out to look for Manatees with Boats and Fun and saw a ton of dolphins and had lunch at Cabbage Key. The sunset from the club's private beach access and gazebo was simply stunning. We also hiked the state park path at the south end of the island; which is a mile and a half sandy trail to the beach. Amazing views! My girls loved the dvd collection and all the games. Plenty of tennis rackets, too. Thanks to Carolyn and her husband, when we had a flat tire on the golf cart, they fixed it and delivered it to where we were having dinner. Great service! Thanks, Kevin!

This house was ideal for our family of four with two small children. We loved the multiple decks. The washer and dryer were useful and there were plenty of towels and dishes. It was so quiet, peaceful, and close to the pool and the beach. Carolyn was so friendly and helpful. I hope we can return.

This was the prefect rental for our group of 4 - two adults and two teenagers. If you are looking to unplug, relax, and bond with your family, this is perfect. The island is very safe, which gave our teenagers a freedom they don't experience at home. We paddle boarded, went fishing, relaxed on the beach and in the water, and went on some nice bike rides. The house was plenty big for our group, in fact we had room to spare. Very clean and inviting. And our bed was very comfortable! Carolyn, the caretaker, was the best! She welcomed us, was always in touch and there if we needed anything at all. Really a great experience. Only things to look out for: the grill and the freezer are not the best. But these were minor details in an otherwise perfect vacation. Would have stayed a couple more days. The title is spot on: A True Island Getaway.

The listing for the property is accurate. It's arranged in a private community and this home is located close to the clubhouse, with its pool and tennis courts right there. You can walk right through the backyard to reach the clubhouse, and the home is a very short walk/ride to the beach. The times we spent at the beach and the pool were where we made most of our special memories. I was looking for quiet time with my family and North Captiva is truly that. Very quiet. There's a small bar/restaurant that serves about 5 tables outside. The entire bar is outside. The Boathouse, the on-island dining experience is open only three days during the off-season, and the other restaurant is around the way, a little inconvenient during the rare instance of inclement weather, which we experienced three of our 7 days on the island. While we intended to make most of our meals at home anyway, we ended up making all of them from our kitchen, which was fully stocked with cookware, utensils and serving dishes. There are also plenty of towels, for the pool and for the shower. The property is in need of a new grill, but the bicycles are newer and worked just great. We didn't use the kayak. With four people in our family, and the rough weather we had, it just didn't seem practical. Anything you could want or need is graciously provided by the on-site caretaker, Carolyn, who was just amazing. She had lots of tips for us and was just really laid back and easy going. We had a couple of issues we asked for help with, and she responded so quickly, and fixed each one with a smile on her face. There is a small convenience store on the island. The staff is very kind. You should be aware that the stores carries what you'll likely need, but sells it in small quantities. You can buy one pop, not a six pack. You can buy a small, individual bag of chips, not a a family size. You can buy a roll of toliet paper, not a four pack. This is true for just about everything but beer. They do have great ice cream though. Just be aware that everything in the store will cost just about double what it does elsewhere. There is also a washer and dryer on-site which was super helpful for our seven-day stay. We washed towels and a little bit of our family's laundry to get us by. It was a life-saver. There is also a hair dryer on site, not that I ever used it, but it case it helps with your packing(URL HIDDEN)

We had a fantastic stay at Kevin's home - probably the best vacation we've had! It is a perfect place to stay with children - close to the beach and pool. Carolyn was accommodating and helpful, especially given our cancelled flight and subsequent late arrival.

The listing description was accurate - the location is amazing, the house is a casual beach front property and perfect for a small family who want to relax. The island is wonderful and has access to boats, jet skis and perfect beaches and sunsets. I did not receive the welcome pack though and did not really know how to get there so ended up driving up Sanibel and Captiva only to find out we had to go a completely different way which took 4 hours all told

Outstanding location, stunning views, great atmosphere and service from Seema and the North Captiva team. The house itself would need a little TLC, especially in the outdated bathrooms, but overall very clean and neat. We will come back for sure.

Beautiful views of the water right from the kitchen and living room. Nice sandy beaches with shells. Wonderful place to relax.

Great brech house with great view! The island is a perfect get away place for vacation!

Wonderful vacation in a stunningly beautiful spot. The house was well equipped, spacious, and comfortable. What a great escape!

We had a wonderful and profoundly relaxing stay at Seema's beachside house. Every evening, we walked out onto the beach and watched the sun set over the ocean, sometimes on this huge expanse of white sand all by ourselves. During the day, we went kayaking, swimming, walking in the nature preserve which is very close by. We did see dolphins, turtles, storks, gulls. Don't miss taking photos by the beach at the end of the runway on the other side of the island towards sunset- it is truly magical. Dinner at Barnacles afterwards . Thank you Seema!

This was the perfect location for a great getaway. Beautiful sunset views and secluded beaches offer a great relaxing and enjoyable experience.

Great vacations

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on North Captiva. We found everything just as stated in Donna's write-up and shown in the pictures. The house was well appointed and the location was great. Everything we needed for our adventures on the island were supplied, golf cart, beach towels, beach chairs, boogie board etc. Carolyn the property manager picked us up at the dock and was very helpful getting us oriented and answering our many questions. The club privileges, included with house were great, pool, kayaks, bikes. Everything was hassle-free which enhanced our stay. We have rented many houses in the islands over the years. I would rank this near the top of the list. Thanks for a wonderfully relaxing vacation.

The photos of this beach house do not do its beauty and tranquility justice! Hope to be back one day!! Best location on the island.

"Magical" was my husband's word to describe our week at Summer Breeze. Usually matter of fact in his descriptions, the veer to slightly more poetic language is a good indicator of how great our stay was. The pictures don't do the house justice, it is simply a home you must enter to experience. Sweeping ocean views from virtually every room, multiple decks both large and small, screened and not, including a rooftop deck off the master bedroom with rocking chairs to have breakfast watching the sea or spend the evening stargazing in the magnificently clear, dark sky. The gulf is your front yard, there are miles of beach to explore, including incredibly private coves where tree trunks felled by storms past provided us with one of our favorite, spontaneous moments. Sitting on a giant horizontal tree right at the shores edge, we hung on to branches for dear life as waves crashed into us from behind, causing both of us to squeal with delight. Half whirlpool, half amusement park ride. It was quite literally a blast, we felt like kids again. The house itself is beautifully decorated, thoughtfully stocked, spacious and comfortable. Great shelling on the beach, wildlife all around - including an Osprey that caught a fish and decided to eat it on our deck. The fish was enormous - we watched him dine and took great close-up pictures. Walks through the preserve revealed a giant tortoise and many other surprises. Little touches like the grown-up size swings on the bottom deck gave us a moment to relax when coming back from a day at the beach before heading upstairs to clean up and cook dinner on the grill. Our mornings, days and evenings there were some of the best we've ever had. Chris was a responsive host, answering questions and helping with logistics. A+!

Absolutely terrific house located in a tropical paradise. This is one of the best beach houses I've ever stayed in. One of my favorite things about this house is the area underneath where the hot tub is located - it's a really nice place to sip a cocktail in the shade while enjoying a beautiful view of the beach and all the "action" on the street around the house. Highly recommend this house and will definitely plan to stay here again in the future. Chris is a terrific host. Perfect for a family of 4. One tip for future guests: make sure you pre-order groceries at least 5 days in advance and book ferry spots with NCIC several weeks (or more) in advance.

This was a perfect vacation for us. We are a family of 3 couples: 1 senior and 2 - 30 somethings celebrating a retirement and soon to be first grandbaby. Chris's house is a gem. It has everything one could want to be comfortable and relax completely and have fun. The house is directly on the beach. The views of the sunset were stunning day after day. The absence of cars makes it very peaceful. Chris was very responsive to our questions both before we arrived and while we were there. His managers, Paula and Capt. Richie were also very helpful. Our biggest problem was planning and bringing all our food on our way there but now that we know how it all works, we can't wait to go back.

I can't adequately describe how amazing our time was for our whole family. The house was wonderful and met all of our needs the entire week. What a lovely home! North Captiva Island is a dream come true, and everyone in our family had such an incredible time. Thanks!

Yvena was easy to work with. Did have some problems with (URL HIDDEN) one to take our luggage and groceries to house. Our cart was not available upon arrival. the one we did get had a dead battery. I had to get a strange cart and retrieve all of our belongings and take them to our house. I found out later there was a 200.00 dollar fine for taking someone else's cart. The house was nice.

WE did spend a perfect week. The house is perfectly equipped except WE only had two wine glasses ;-) Arrival was perfectly with North Captiva team. WE used Sandies Groceries which I would recommend. They charge about 30% Service but deliver every day AND they Stock up your kitchen according to your pre-order, so all is there when you arrive. Cleaning of the outside areas could have been better. BBQ worked perfect, but needed cleaning before beeing used. First golf cart broke down after 500 yards but was replaced the next day. Restaurant "Over the Waterfront" is excellent (bring your own beer and wine)! Over all, a "Perfect Place to Spend Your Holidays!" WE'll come again!

We had a great time in Blue Macaw! The home was immaculate, well-decorated and kid-friendly. We especially liked to lot because it was so secluded - you could barely see the neighbors. And the colors of the exterior and interior just make you smile! Some little suggestions for the host to add to the kitchen: a larger pot to boil corn, a scraper/spatula, whisk and a pair of scissors. We loved that the house had filtered water too! The outdoor shower was a hit with our kids. Yvena answered all of our questions and because of that, we were packed just right! She was so responsive - that helped since it was our first time on the island and were taking 2 young kiddos. North Captiva Club has things so well organized - from dropping off of our luggage and groceries, to the boat ride over, to the delivery and subsequent pick-up of our belongings. Great service! Next time we will pack a little less clothing since we spent so much time in our bathing suits. We also took kites, which the kids loved flying. Highlights: we loved the beach at the end of the runway. Dolphins frolicking in the water (very close to shore) every time we went - which was at least 2x per day! The kids loved finding all of the sea critters - fighting conch, sand dollars, hermit and other crabs, sea urchins, lightning whelk, etc.. It was an exceptional learning opportunity for them and how to care for and protect nature. We also kayaked and saw the island's manatees. We rode bikes too! We'd suggest that the Island Club fix the tire on the baby cart that you tow behind an adult bike - it was pretty shaky. ;) Loved the quiet atmosphere and friendly people we met. Definitely planning to go back - our little one says every morning, "are we going to the island?" We're like, "we wish, honey...we wish!" 8 thumbs up from our group of 4!

Wonderful vacation home, wonderful island, flawless hosts!
