It's always 'Millertime' at our relaxing home on beautiful Captiva Island situated on a secluded lot with your own private pool. Miles of white sand beaches on the Gulf are just a two doors away. This home is also located in the heart of Captiva's charming Village area with its quaint shops, galleries and fine dining. This is truly a place to come and get away from it all. Bring your laptop...we have wireless high speed Internet Access.
The interior has been upgraded with all new carpet, tile, paint and furniture that gives the home a decidedly 'island' look.
The living room with cathedral ceiling has a sleeper sofa and new entertainment center with 36' cable TV, VCR/DVD and stereo. Two sets of double sliding glass doors lead to a large screened lanai adjacent to the pool. The lanai has plenty of seating and a set of table and chairs for additional dining space. The heated pool is in a large screened area and is very private with tropical vegetation surrounding it.
The large master bed with king size bed is equipped with cable TV/VCR, a private bath and sliding doors that lead to a patio area.
The second bedroom has a queen size bed, cable TV/VCR and sliding glass doors overlooking the pool.
The third bedroom has two twin beds, plenty of closet space and cable TV/VCR.
A modern, fully equipped kitchen and dining area is open to the living room and has everything needed to prepare snacks to complete meals, including refrigerator, stove, microwave and dishwasher. A gas grill located on the porch deck is available for grilling steaks or your own catch of fish from the Gulf.
Your vacation home and pool area are surrounded by colorful tropical Palm trees, flowering shrubs and even a Key Lime tree. The Gulf beach with some of the best shelling in the world and spectacular sunsets is a two minute walk to the West.
A short walk to the East will bring you to a marina on the bay side of the island where you can rent a boat or just watch the manatees lounging around the docks.
Boat and jet ski rentals are available at the beach as is parasailing. Two 18 hole golf courses, The Dunes and Beachview are 20 minutes away on Sanibel Island. The Captiva Library is right next door and has books, CDs, videos and computers available to guests.
What we like about Captiva is what you wont find there, like high rise condos/hotels, fast-food restaurants and busy shopping centers. It's just an unspoiled tropical island where you can relax and get away from it all.

This property was perfect for our family holiday and was just as advertised on the Owners website.Everything very clean and well maintained . Fabulous location - a 2 minute walk to the beach , where we spotted Dolphins; Pelicans; Herons and Osprey daily . A 4minute walk in the other direction led to the wharf with good fishing trips and plenty of Manatee alsovery close to to the charming Chapel by the sea where we attended a magical Carol service . Local shops and restaurants a few minutes walk away . Dan the owner was extremely helpful prior to our arrival and accomodated all of the requests that we made. The layout of the house was great and ideal for our 4year old grandson who has physical disabilities - many thanks to Dan for arranging the pool to be so warm - Jack loved it ! .Would definitely recommend the property to a friend.Recommended for: Age 55+, people with disabilities, sightseeing, families with young children.
Owner response: This is the kind of service we provide to all our guests at Millertime Villa. Come see for your self. We would love to have you as a guest!!!

Absolutely just as pictured! This was our first home rental and it was a fantastic experience. Everything was clean and ready for us upon arrival. My family consisted of my husband, two of our grown children, my daughter-in-law and twin grandsons (who were 23 months old.) Everyone loved the location, the pool, and the layout was perfect, allowing privacy for all. There were 2 minor 'hiccups' that were taken care of EXTREMELY QUICKLY and the lady from Kingfishers Vacation was polite and explained to me who was going to taking care of the issues. There were pool toys, chairs and an umbrella to take to the beach along with a wheelbarrow to cart everything to the beach. This was a wonderful vacation for my family and we are hoping to go again.Owner response: We always strive to provide perfect conditions for a fabulous Captiva Island vacation. However, if something unforeseen happens, we are backed up by an excellent service and maintenance team at our rental agency. With ten years of experience renting our home, we know what it takes to have delighted guests who often return the following year. Dan & Sue

This house was perfect in every way for our family. It was immaculately clean throughout and very well maintained. It was very private and peaceful and the heated pool was an added bonus. A stone's throw from the beach - it just couldn't have been better. Captiva is a beautiful island, with breathtaking beaches, scenery and abundant bird life. This is the perfect location for a family vacation and is a birder's paradise, too! Millertime checked all the boxes for us and we would love to return again next year. This was our second visit to Captiva and we would highly recommend this house to anyone considering a visit to this beautiful island.Owner response: Our biggest compliment is from a guest who says they will return next year. That means we really are doing things right. Come to our relaxing home on Captiva Island and maybe you will be another of our repeat guests! Dan & Sue

Really enjoyed our stay at Millertime. It was a beautiful set up, plenty of room, nice pool and patio. Very close to the beach and restaurants. Once we arrived, the car sat there; we walked everywhere! Hit all the main restaurants, rented a water ski and parasailed. We really enjoyed our time and look forward to going back. Would definately stay at Millertime again!Recommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Come visit us at Millertime Villa on beautiful Captiva Island. See why this guest enjoyed the house, pool and our great location. We look forward to having them back!

This house was clean and well stocked for a 1 week stay. The pool was very clean and everything in the house and outside is very well maintained. It is a short walk to the beach and also to Andy Rosse Lane for the shops and restaurants. We enjoyed swimming in the pool or just relaxing in front of the TV. I would definitely rent this house again.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.
Owner response: Sounds like we may be adding this guest to our growing list of return guests! Come to Millertime Villa for your Captiva Island vacation and see why we have so many people who return each year. We would love to have you as a guest!

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful, beach house. The home is close to everything and very, very comfortable. The pool is clean and heated and was a pleasure to relax in. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach, which is one of the prettiest anywhere. We have always stayed in hotels, and this was our first experience staying in a home. --We will definitely be back!Owner response: The best review for us is when our guests say they want to return. We have many guests who come back each year to Millertime Villa. We automatically provide each returning guest a $200 discount on their next stay. We would love to have YOU as a guest this season!

Dear Dan and Sue, We all had the best time ever at Millertime Villa! We all agreed it was the best house we ever stayed in! Thank you for having such a wonderful house and keeping it so well equipped with games, pots and pans, movies, etc etc etc. We really loved being able to walk everywhere, and we loved the pool. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and if we decide to go back next year will definitely try to get the house again. With much appreciation, Betsy, Nick, Derek, Amy, Chad, Meredith and NicholasRecommended for: Tourists without a car, age 55+, families with teenagers, girls getaway, people with disabilities, families with young children, adventure seekers.

My family and I have made a tript to Sanibel/Captiva almost an anuual event. The Miller Time home provided us with the best "home base" that we have had yet. It is a terrific home in a super location. It's just a short walk to the beach, to the marina, to the area restaurants and shops. The pool is wonderful and the home is very spacious. We will be back again.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 17/19

"This home is so wonderful we just got back from a week and wished we had booked two! The pictures do not do it justice. The location is absolutely perfect, beach was a minute away and the Mucky Duck a short walk (maybe 5 minutes tops) on the beach, same to downtown. We have two toddlers and the home was set up really great for them and pool has a very secure gate that allowed us to let them play on the lanai without us worring they would get into the pool area! The house itself is beautifully decorated and the layout is so spacious it really lends itself to relaxing dinners or cocktails with a few friends - with plenty of space for the kids to keep them occupied but within earshot. We very highly recommend "Millertime" for a great vacation spot! The Power Family"Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 5/6
