The best vacation ever!

As a very busy family of 4, we found a piece of paradise here that helped us all reconnect and unwind. We absolutely loved the solitude and rustic, unrefined nature of this island. We enjoyed boat charters and fishing and eating our catch! Can't get any fresher than that! Saw so much wildlife; dolphins, turtles, manatees and even a shark! Collected more shells than we could bring home! The house had the perfect amount of space that we all had privacy and connection. Everything was so comfortable. The golf cart was a nice addition to help explore the island. This vacation was the best ever as we had no stress and nothing to worry about. Can't wait to return in (hopefully) the near future!

North Captiva Family Trip

Clean property but older and in need of some updating. It was a very relaxing place. We pretty much had the beaches to ourselves. Not having a grocery store was big negative and there are only two restaurants on the island now, one requiring reservations.

Absolute Bliss!

Barefoot Bliss was a great place for our first time on the island. It had all the amenities we could have asked for! The kitchen was well supplied, the bedrooms were all comfortable. We enjoyed the use of the kayak, fishing equipment, and golf cart. The property managers were very responsive and great at answering all of our questions. We will definitely be visiting the island again!

Wonderful place to stay!

This was our first time staying on North Captiva and it was amazing. The house was beautiful and I loved that we had a washer and dryer onsite. The kids loved to get up in the morning and walk over to the docks and see the dolphins. We rented fishing poles from Boats N Fun and brought the kids to different areas arond the island and caught a variety of fish. It was a wonderful time. Will definitely go back. Property Management was wonderful both while booking and once we arrived. Very friendly all around!

Paradise!

This condo was perfect for our family of 5. It was clean and had everything we needed for the week. Very well stocked with supplies and plenty of towels! My kids loved using the kayak! So many beach toys and chairs! This condo is well maintained and comfortable. The beach access was close and mostly empty the entire length of our stay! The pool at the clubhouse was great and my kids made use of the pickle ball court. We highly recommend staying here! The property manager made themselves available if we needed anything. Great stay and we look forward to another visit!

Great week at NCI

Condo was great, had everything we needed, and listing was accurate. Property mgmt was there at the dock to greet us, and responsive to requests during our stay. Wish the kitchen were a little larger, that is about the only thing. If your with a group, plan to have one person in the kitchen at a time. That said, it did not stop us from cooking some great (and fresh) seafood. If your a planner, you can order seafood in advance and have a grocery service pick it up and deliver to Island Girls Ferry. We got some from Barnhill Seafood, and also place an order though Boats-n-Fun. Both were excellent!

Almost perfect

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Property management was wonderful, very attentive, addressed all needs. Great location and the actual townhome’s interior was in excellent condition. I was apprehensive before arriving because of the condition of other properties after the last hurricane, This townhome was great! My only surprise was one of the bedrooms upstairs. Listing has a picture of this room with two twin beds. I needed that room for one of my teens. The room is small with a sloped ceiling (VERY sloped). It was quite uncomfortable up there. There is no room to walk without bending over. Anyone slightly claustrophobic would have a difficult time. There is a small bedroom on the ground floor next to the garage with a twin bed as another option. However, it is very warm down there and there is no TV. The tiny room on top does have a TV. The other two large bedrooms are fantastic! So, if your family only needs two bedrooms, then this would be the PERFECT house. If you need three bedrooms, then don’t expect all rooms to be equal in size and comfort. Everything else was so great in the house including location and property managers that I would still return. At least now I know what to expect. My suggestion would be to please add a TV and a portable AC to the ground floor bedroom/laundry room to compensate for the tiny room upstairs. OVERALL, RENTING AT BAREFOOT BLISS WAS AWESOME :) Loved it!!
