Welcoming 2-bedroom 2-bathroom condo in a secluded section of Sanibel Island

10/10 Excellent
"Everything that she listed is exactly what you received. It was a great place to stay. Very close to Bowman’s Beach, which was a great beach. The property also had a great pool and Pickleball courts! It was great having a washer and dryer inside the condo as well. The kitchen was fully stocked. All you need to do is stop by a Publix’s on the way in and get your food."

ONE Captiva- Gorgeous 6BR Gulf Front Villa, Private Beach Access

10/10 Excellent
"One Captiva was a spectacular experience ! It was clean, well maintained, and the perfect location for both the bay and the Gulf. My grand-darlings fished off the dock, and then they all went in the pool and then they also were able to enjoy shelling on the Gulf and fishing from the shore. Every day was a fabulous experience. We slept 11 comfortably. The beds and linens were amazing. I highly recommend One Captiva."
