Book a hotel near Barbara Sumwalt Museum, Captiva

"We had a wonderful time! The home was clean and stocked with everything you would ever need. We were traveling with all ages from 68 to two one yr olds. The two masters on the first floor were nice for my husband and I’s elderly mothers. The master up stairs had a wonderful bonus room that had a crib and a toddler bed. It was so nice having my youngest children so close but yet separated for some privacy. They had everything you would need for small children including baby gates, baby monitor and pack n plays. We would put the babies down for a nap and head to the beach with the monitor without any issue!There is also a nice shaded spot for the babies to play under the deck that kept my 1 and 4 yr olds occupied for hours. The beach was PERFECT. Wonderful sunrise views with calm waters for our younger children. The private beach was perfect and came stocked with yard games like cornhole and even games for the children. Also plenty of beach seating. The ice maker and fridge beachside were such a blessing. A cold drink was always just steps away. I also liked that our private beach had clear boundaries that kept my children on our property …. this was the first vacation wear my kids could roam and play and I could actually sit and relax. Great beachside fishing also! The gulf carts were in great shape and had plenty of room with having the two available. The owner and management company are very responsive and kind and are truly just a text away. Highly Recommend!"

"Everything was very neat, clean, and quite. Very friendly and informative hosts. We will be back!"

"This was part of our family's 2nd trip to North Captiva and the island provided the perfect vacation destination. The house had all the space we needed for our group of 14. The kids loved having the pool and the trek to the beach was short and easy. We saw lots of wildlife including dolphins on the beach everyday. Our only issue was that the water pump wasn't working when we arrived and it look a couple of days to get it resolved. Once that was on working order we were able to fully relax and enjoy the paradise that North Captiva has to offer."

"Overall, the house was amazing. The game/bar area in the enclosed lower deck provided a great place to spend some time when not out exploring, providing an assortment of games, pool and foosball tables, and a nice wet bar. The rest of the house was very nicely furnished - both inside and out, and the observation deck on the roof provided a great view of sunset. The outdoor kitchen/bar was a great place to hang out/cook/eat. My only complaint is the private pool - which was a big reason we booked the house - was inoperable for the duration of our stay. The issue was discovered a couple of days before we arrived, but we didn't find out until we were halfway there. The owner did give us a few options, and we opted to continue with the stay and use the Safe Harbor Club members only pool. Not as readily accessible as the private pool, but it worked."

"We very much enjoyed our stay. Great place to unplug and lay low. Rustic but very comfortable. The island is gorgeous. Note that this is pretty remote. Outside of the other few houses on the island, there’s nothing else on the island (which was a draw for us). Only accessible by boat - we’re not boat owners but were able to easily find a great box taxi. We’d definitely (and likely will) book again. Thanks Stan & Elle for sharing your place!"

"My husband and I were thrilled with our time spent at your home. The quietness of the neighborhood, the expanse of the property, all was perfect! We hope to visit again soon!"
