My friends and I have visited Captiva many times over the past 15 years and our favorite place to stay is in the Sunset Captiva neighborhood. The location to the beach, restaurants, shopping cannot be beat! The gorgeous landscaping and well-maintained homes and grounds are outstanding. It’s quiet and a great place to come to relax and recharge! Cannot recommend enough! This home was the most beautiful!

Phenomenal week at Sunset Captiva 17!!

The house was close to the beach, well-decorated and supplied, and comfortable for our 4 adults. The king beds were a huge plus and we loved the screened in porch. We’d certainly stay here again in a heartbeat. The beach access is perfect!

Great beach stay

The house was very nice and clean, in a small residential "development" one block south of the main "commercial street" of Captiva. It's easy to walk anywhere via the beach or the street. It's a one minute walk to the pool and maybe two minutes to the beach (via a small wooden path by the pool). The pool is fine. Nothing special, but a good option for the kids at times. The beach is great, though was surprisingly more crowded than expected. Still, we were always able to carve out space for our stuff without having to "get there early to reserve a spot". Speaking of stuff, we loved the rusty little cart provided and used it a ton to bring all our stuff to the beach (most of which was provided by the host). Chairs, umbrella (we donated a 2nd one to the cause), rafts, pool noodles, etc. There's an outdoor shower (also great) to rinse off all your post-beach sand as well. Beds were a little lumpy, but fine. Kitchen is nice. Hard to find much of anything to complain about. My favorite part of the house is the screened lanai. Even though the houses are close together, there's so much tropical vegetation, that it feels very private. I would certainly recommend this house for anyone looking for a nice family stay very close to the beach.

Wonderful Post Covid Reunion

This is a lovely home, in a great neighborhood, in one of my favorite places! The home was incredibly clean - we marveled about it several times and nicely decorated. We felt like it was "home" not just a rental.

Review of Sunset Captiva 17

The property was beautifully decorated, clean, and in a quiet neighborhood yet just steps from the pool, beach, and a number of nearby restaurants. Some minor things were missing such as a corkscrew for wine and no kitchen towels or hot pads. We had no trouble making do in spite of that. Overall a wonderful stay.

Captive in Captiva

We enjoyed our stay at17 Sunset Captiva . The house is an older house, but has been updated. The house does have stairs to enter, but wasn't a problem for us. It's located close to the community pool and easy walk to beach. Plenty of room for family of four. Kitchen was well stocked w/ utensils. But, bring a casserole dish as they don't have. Bedding was good. Mattresses probably need to be switched out in near future. Porches are excellent! Breakfast every morning on main level screen porch and above is a sun deck - perfect retreat to lounge and read or listen to the wind and waves. Several good restaurants within walking distance. Fun and tropical feel island. We'll be back.

Great house in a great location

This was a great house! Wonderful location with a very short walk to the beach, pool, and nearby restaurants and Manatee! We did not even need to rent a golf cart. The screened-in porch was wonderful for the one morning we had rain and for wet kids to dry off and warm up after a day at the beach. The only issues we had were that there were a few dirty pots and utensils in the cabinets and that the sheets would not stay on the beds. I would either recommend the property owners get deep pocket sheets or that renters bring some with you when you come. Also, just be aware that the twin beds are in the landing at the top of the stairs, so it’s not very quiet or private for whomever sleeps there, but that didn’t really bother our son. Other than that everything was fabulous. Well decorated and very comfy for our family of four. Would definitely stay at this house again if we come back to Captiva!

Beautiful home, great location

Home was nicely decorated, well kept, comfortable and great location in the Sunset Captiva neighborhood. Steps to the pool. Very short walk to beach. Wonderful outdoor shower for getting sand off you after the beach. Had a small issue with a toilet and was fixed in a jiffy! Quite place. Great deck and Lanai. Was our 5th time to the island and 4th time staying in the neighborhood. Best home we’ve stayed in! Don’t forget to pack coffee filters and salt and pepper! 😄 Will stay again for sure.
