Terrific week

We spent a very nice week on Captiva with our adult children. The property was clean and comfortable. We rented a power boat and were able to keep it at one of Sunset Captiva ‘s slips. The marina, next to Jensens, is a perfect spot across from Buck Key. Sunset Captiva is well located and within walking distance to restaurants and shops. We’ll be back!

Sunset Captiva

The house was as advertised. The owner responded immediately when texted . We had a slight shower problem , it was fixed very quickly. The community pool was great and the beach very close by. I only wish the upstairs bedroom had lighting on both sides of the bed. It was a great house, in a nice community , on a beautiful island.

Great house and location!

My family of 4 really loved it! We have a 13 and 18 year old and they were both happy in the house, plenty of space and plenty to do. We also really like staying in Sunset Captiva. Pool was very nice, and warm! Very nice pickle ball courts, and of course the beach! Captiva

Great Property - Responsive Host

This place was really great. It isn’t new but it is very comfy. The beds and furniture were great. The kitchen had everything we needed. The location is outstanding. We had an issue with one of the windows being open and couldn’t be closed. We reported to host and it was fixed within the hour. We would definitely stay here again.

Week in Captiva

We enjoyed our week at 57 Sandpiper. The house is spacious, beds are comfortable, and location is great with easy access to restaurants, the beautiful Captiva beach and pool, which was a good size for the community. Host (Ryan) was responsive to our requests. We would stay here again.

Great Location For The Kids

We live ve Captiva and usually stay out of town a bit (near Tween Waters). But, this rental was perfect for our grandson and friends with food, shops, etc. close by. Also nice for the adults… as short walk to the market and restaurants. Our host was very responsive to our needs.

The community where the property is located is very nice. The property itself is very good but needs updating, especially dining room and living room furniture. Beach access was outstanding and the location in regards to restaurants and community center are outstanding.

Just ok

Overall just ok for the price. Some issues included downstairs bathroom-showerhead dripped, toilet loose from floor, toilet seat loose. Hair dryer barely works. No fan or fan not workingDownstairs bedroom needs more lightingLiving room needs additional lightingInfo on laminate says recyclable on Wednesday and trash Thursday. When it was not picked up we found a duplicate info sheet in home that had been corrected to accurate date. So home was left with a completely trash can.

End of Summer getaway

Property was very spacious and comfortable. Kitchen had all of the cooking utensils we needed, bathrooms had plenty of towels and there were nice beach towels provided. Washer and drier were very nice and efficient. We brought our own beach toys, wagon and chairs but there were some of all of these provided too. My kids used one of the bikes (there were 2 but 1 had a low tire and we did not pump it up) to go back and forth to the beach path. The community pool was biggest hit with my grandson, clear and clean. Overall good location to both sides of the island and captiva businesses. Definitely would recommend.

Magical Place :)

We are a group of 4 adulds and two girls (2+5 years old) and enjoyed every day!! We visit Captiva several times in sunset Captiva and this Place is really good in shape. The Island is still in reconstruction in several locations after the hurrican but Sunset Captiva area did a really good job. The sidewalks are new builded and the pool is joyful and even the plants are perfectly done. The owner Ryan replies fast on every question we had. The house was clean and had everything you need for a wonderful vacation. We will come back again!

Great location on Captiva with space to unwind

This house is in a great location on Captiva. It is a short walk to all the key features of the island, including the Mucky Duck, the Island Store, Jensen's Marina. The available pool is very nice, and we enjoyed it frequently during our 2 weeks with another couple. A boardwalk leads you to the beach where shelling and watching the Osprey's is an all day thing. The house has plenty of room including a screened porch. The neighborhood is quiet and is well maintained. We had a great time and would go back.

There was an issue with the electricity in the kitchen. We had to turn off the lights to use the microwave or it would blow the breaker. We didn't bother the management we just dealt with it. All in all it was very clean and well located.

About the host

Hosted by Ryan & Mercedes

Host profile image
Hello from Ryan and Mercedes. We have been coming to Captiva and Sanibel for many years and absolutely fell in love! We have two daughters and reside in Columbus, OH. Captiva really has it all for adults and kids as well. To us, is the perfect place. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We really discovered this property only recently when visiting Captiva and instantly fell in love with it. Direct access to a gorgeous beach, marina and dock area with room for a boat, beautiful pool and barbeque area - everything within walking distance and easily accessible. And that great relaxed island lifestyle - perfect!

Our primary goal is to deliver something special, anything we can do to help facilitate the best possible vacation for you and your loved ones, please let us know!

What makes this property unique

A four minute stroll to the pool or marina and only a minute more to the gorgeous gulf beach! Across the street you have our marina where you can bring your own boat and dock it for free. And next to it is Jensen's - a Captiva institution. Stroll over and say hello, get some bait for fishing, rent a boat, get the latest fishing tips or take a walk out on the dock. Also right across the street you have Captiva Cruises - try the dolphin watch and wildlife cruise or take a ride to beautiful, unspoiled Cayo Costa for the beach and shelling. Or maybe cruise to Cabbage Key or Useppa Island for a leisurely lunch and sightseeing. It is only a short walk to great restaurants - the unique Bubble Room or the Mucky Duck right on the beach - sit out on their beachside patio to watch the sun go down, sip a drink and enjoy the music. or the sunshine Seafood Cafe', Green Flash or Keylime Bistro - all within easy walking distance.

Steps away from Andy Rosse and all that Captiva has to offer make this property very unique.
