About this property

BEACH FRONT with the best sunsets on the island!!!

Newly remodeled, ON THE BEACH! OCEAN FRONT HOME ON PRISTINE SANDY WHITE BEACHES Spectacular views, best sunsets!

WE are located on the northern tip of the island... on a pristine white sandy beach overlooking the turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico known as "Rum Point". There are 4 acres of private undeveloped land to the back of the property filled with tropical birds and trails... this makes our home very private and quiet!!!
To the front of our home is the Gulf of Mexico, just 10 steps and you can walk right in to turquoise waters!
Once you arrive at the dock, you will be directed to your golf cart which will be your island transportation during your stay, our island has no cars, only lushly lined sandy trails and golf carts! The property is a short 5 minute golf cart ride from the dock. Once you get settled into Rainbows End, you can explore the island with the furnished golf cart, or you can just relax and enjoy this magical beach house and the privacy it offers.
When traveling to a barrier island a beach front rental is really a must! The rhythmic sound of waves softly crashing just feet from your dinner table, spectacular sunsets from the porch or the beach, walk directly into the sparkling waters of the Gulf at any time, watch dolphins swim off your front porch most any day!
The island also offers miles of nature trails for hiking and exploring, over 600 acres of Federal Wildlife Preserve is one of the island’s many treasures. Miles of pristine and un-populated beaches, and depending on wind direction…always a calm beach to enjoy somewhere on the island.
North Captiva Island is a true offshore island, boat or plane access only, golf carts and bicycles on sandy trails vs cars and roads, yet all the conveniences of shore. The island has about 300 home owners, 4 bars/restaurants, a popular pool bar & grill, marina grill, small convenience store, guided fishing and boating tours, gift shop, boat rentals, grocery deliveries, etc. Once you arrive, you won’t want or need to leave!
Ferries run throughout the day, 20 minute boat ride, you can leave almost anytime, you just won’t want to! Also daily tour boats depart for island hopping, dolphin watching and grocery runs.
Give us a call or email, we would love to have you visit!!!!!!! The only bad part is, you won't want to leave :)

Buddy's Spring Break 2025

Wow! Is the best way to sum it all up. Did not really know what to expect after the storms but it is obvious and appreciated the work, time and effort that has gone into bringing Rainbows End into its current pristine condition. The location is amazing, My Wife, myself and our 2 year old Lab "Buddy" had the best time enjoying this property, the Beach, Sunrises, Sunsets and laid back vibe was amazing! Kudos to the Shallys Seashells Property Team for making this available. Russ, Diann & Buddy woof, woof, woof approved.

Great stay

My family enjoyed the stay last week at this cottage right on the beach. Amazing views, saw dolphins while on the back deck. Remote, quiet, and relaxing. We had ants, the manager was responsive and had a professional out the next day. Just make sure to wear plenty of bug spray when outside, but that isn’t an issue with the property. Overall we were very pleased!

Very relaxing

Very nice small house in a quiet setting. Beautiful location (and sunsets). Our only issue was bit of lack of communication from the local property manager. The local manager's young kids met us at the dock on arrival, which was a little odd, but then we had workmen show up unannounced twice - once working on the washer which we didn't know was an issue. Other than that, a great stay.

Fantastic Beach Location

This location is great to get away and relax. It’s in the perfect spot to watch dolphins, manta rays, manatees, and even a sea turtle if you’re lucky. The property was clean and has everything available to make the stay as enjoyable as possible.

One of the best on the island!

This was our second time staying at this property and won’t be our last! This is the best part of the island in our opinion and we’ve stayed in numerous other properties. The upgrades are beautiful and everyone associated with the property are very nice, helpful and attentive. Great place for a getaway!
