Captiva Apartment

The apartment is perfect for a short beach stay. It was very clean and well kept and just a short walk to the beach. The mattress was very firm, but we seemed to have adjusted and slept well. John was a wonderful host.

Quiet Captiva Get-Away

Thanks to John for sharing his Captiva home with guests. It is so hard to find a place where you can bring your dog along, and that helps to make this rental very special. Everything about this place is as advertised and pictured. The beach is a very short walk away and it is easy to imagine that you live here after a few days. Walkability is great - love the location. I hope to return when it is cooler! Thanks again, John.

Great space, great beach

We were so very happy with this clean, quiet place. Couldn’t ask for a better location, everything on Captiva within walking distance. So much wildlife so close, and the beach was so peaceful and pristine. Thanks for such a great stay!

Great location!

I can’t say enough about the location of this property! It is very close to the beach and very close to town as well as The Green Flash and Jensens‘s if you plan on doing any fishing charters. John, the owner, is super nice and made us feel welcome. I will definitely be going back!

Captiva near the beach

Apartment was clean and well supplied with necessary items. Beds were hard and a bit high to get into. The online description stated steps to beach but it was further than just steps. The beach was nice but had an invasion of bugs that bit ferociously! The space I had to park my car was too narrow and too close to shrubs that made it difficult to get in and out of car.

Great location!

Great location for a fair price! The home was clean, comfortable and looks just like it does in the pictures. It is located on a quiet street that is close to just about everything on Captiva Island. The owner was quick to respond to any questions. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning!

Camp Captiva

Excellent location- walk to everything less than 10 minutes. Beach only a couple of minutes- as close as you can get without being beachfront. Very quiet! No complaints- would book again.

Park the car and enjoy the wonder of Captiva

My partner and I stayed for 2 weeks and never moved the car. Beach access is about 500 steps from the apartment and the heart of Captiva is a 5 minute walk. The apartment has a private courtyard and both are attached to the owners home but have a separate private entrance. We had dinner at Mucky Duck, RC Otters (with live music) and the Green Flash. All were excellent. There’s an Island Store which does an excellent job with provisions and any alcohol you might need. All in all if you’re looking for a nice relaxing beach with dolphins, pelicans and plenty of bike paths for exercise, and enjoy a quiet relaxing time, look no further. Thank you, John, for your hospitality.

Captiva getaway

We enjoyed our stay at the Chapin Lane apartment. It was perfect for the 2 of us and within walking distance to many attractions. Short walk to the beach, although the weather didn’t cooperate for the majority of the week.

This 2 bedroom apartment has all the comforts of home and is just steps away from the beach. Its location is close to the island store, great restaurants and check in was so easy.
