Fantastic beach home!

We absolutely loved Providence on Captiva. We have been coming to Sanibel/Captiva for 25+ years and first time staying in a private beach home. It was very spacious, kitchen had everything needed to cook meals plus grill outside. Pool and outside were relaxing and refreshing after our daily snorkeling/shell hunt at the beach (<5min walk).

Great stay for our group!

This house was gorgeous and freshly appointed. Michael was in touch well in advance and helped facilitate delivery of medical equipment for my father. He gave a great suggestion on how we could see the fireworks for the 4th too! Easy walk to the private beach. Enjoyed the roominess of the house and everyone having their own room/bathrooms!

Fantastic Week!

Captiva Providence is a wonderful house with a great location. Our party of six had plenty of room and really enjoyed the well-maintained property and pool. Michael and Mary were very welcoming and checkin/checkout was a breeze. Overall, our week in Captiva was a relaxing, memorable vacation and we can't wait to stay again at Captiva Providence.

Priceless FL vacation

There are so many things to love about Providence: (a) The location near Blind Pass, (b) the pristine beach with easy access down a path with a handy cart and plenty of beach gear, (c) the immaculate heated pool and hot tub, (d) the stocked kitchen. But this we could tell from the reviews and listing. Once there, what we loved most were the high ceilings/doorways, spacious rooms and hallways, retractable glass doors leading to a balcony with a beautiful western view and eagles nests on either side, comfy furniture, super solid master bed, enormous master shower, sounds of birds throughout the day, detailed landscaping, interior entry to the upstairs...and most welcoming owners! We didn't expect any of these things and appreciated them greatly. We are fortunate to have been able to stay at this unparalleled property...If you have the opportunity, you must go!

Perfect!

We had a wonderful stay at Captiva Providence with our 2 young daughters. The house is beautiful and very large, with more space than we needed. We did not use the lower level at all (which includes king bedroom and rec room) although that space would have been great for a larger group. The primary suite and 2 bedrooms/bathrooms on the main living level make up an ideal floorplan for families with young kids. We spent nearly every day at the beach, which is a short walk across the street (very easy even for our 4 year old). The house is ideally situated across from a portion of the beach that is fairly removed from any public beach access point, so it often felt like we had the beach to ourselves even during our busy spring break week in late March. The beach chairs, umbrella, and cart for transporting those items to the beach were all of excellent quality and in excellent condition. Michael and Mary were so kind and welcoming to our family and I felt comfortable knowing that if any issues came up, they'd be nearby to address them -- although we had no issues! In short, the week was a dream, and we plan on staying at Captiva Providence again next year!

Wonderful Family House

We enjoyed a very nice week at Captiva Providence! The house was perfect for our family (2 grandparents, 2 parents, 2 teenagers). Extremely clean and updated with a terrific basement den. The beach across the street has a very private feel to it. We were there during spring break and there were only ever a handful of other folks on our stretch of the beach. Michael was great with communication and everything logistically was a breeze!; Highly recommend!

A week in Providence!

We just returned home after spending a week in Providence on Captiva! Our family, including our daughter, her husband and two little boys, spent Christmas week there. Michael decorated a Christmas tree for us as well as filled the property with festive lights, making it feel like home! He was an amazing host, always making sure we were comfortable. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable. We lived mostly on the beautiful screened porch and the outdoor pool area. The property is ideally located between the Gulf and the bay. It’s an easy short walk to the beach for the sunsets. We spent a lot of time fishing off the back dock. It truly is a wildlife paradise, with eagles nests on both sides, dolphin swimming by the dock and flocks of pelican resting on the sandbar! We had the most wonderful week and appreciate everything Michael did to make our stay a memorable one! We highly recommend this beautiful piece of paradise!

A perfect week!

We were not sure what to expect because of Hurricane Ian's impact on Sanibel & Captiva, but the Providence was no different than in our previous stays! Perfect accommodations, easily large enough for the 6 adults in our group. The owners live very nearby and are truly welcoming hosts who are responsive to any needs you may have. The pool, the short walk to the ocean and the bay make for an ideal situation! While some of the local restaurants were not yet re-opened, we found that our stay was not impacted in any major way. We unanimously agreed - we need to return as soon as possible!

Great House, Great Location

The house is even better in person. Tons of room, big spaces and the pool is great. It was just my husband and I for our anniversary week looking for a peaceful time. Captiva/Sanibel is great for a seashelling or birding enthusiast. Tons of seashells at Turners Beach and Blind Pass Beach. Tons of different birds at the house and the beach and so close up. A bald eagle nest is literally next door and we were treated to the call of the chuck-wills-widow every night. Hosts are extremely accommodating and kind. Overall, I would highly recommend this property for your next Captiva visit.

Wish we could stay longer

Providence is even better than the pictures. Michael and Mary have created a perfect vacation environment. The house is beautiful and much larger than we expected. I jokingly said to Michael that normally, our experience has been that vacation home photos on VRBO are taken with a fisheye lens and make a vacation home seem expansive and perfectly maintained, but then when you get to the location, the reality is normally a let down. That was not the case at all with Providence...... We were amazed Providence was much larger and more impressive than what we had assumed from the pictures and reviews. Fantastic location....it has everything. Beach, privacy, wildlife all around, beautiful pool table/pool/hot tub. We used the bikes to ride into the village, the dock offers some amazing fishing. We had great luck fishing from the beach as well. Great shelling near Turner Beach (get off the beach and just step into the water a little ways...you'll find more shells/conchs than you could imagine ;) ). Michael and Mary are wonderful hosts....our teenage kids even commented about how welcoming and nice they were to them;). They have put a lot of work into making Providence a beautiful experience. Thank you for a wonderful week!

Happy return guests!

Providence holds a special place in our family's hearts. This was our second time here (spring break 2022 and 2023) and we were yet again so happy to be here! The island itself is still recovering from the hurricane, but everything that Michael and Mary have done to repair and rebuild makes a stay here more than worth it. The house is immaculate, just as it was in 2022 if not better, the private pool and hot tub are wonderful, the short walk to the beach is just as it was before. And that's what we come to Captiva for - time to relax as a family and be outside on the beautiful white sand beach. Michael was very upfront with us about their landscaping being in the restoration process. The house itself is immaculate. We did not venture out much besides the beach (we picked up groceries in Fort Myers for the week), but Michael had a thoroughly researched list of several places and restaurants that we could have gone out to had we desired. The wildlife refuge was reopening the week after we stayed, and it seems other places are reopening too.

Wonderful location and property

We had a wonderful visit to Captiva Providence. The house is fully appointed with high quality versions of everything you need. It is incredibly clean/maintained and the location is great with a very short walk to the beach. Communication with the owner/property manager was fast and easy. An unexpected bonus was an Eagles’ nest on property creating lots of entertainment for the family. There is a lot of damage in the area but it was great to see how good of a condition this property was in and to see how things are progressing throughout Captiva every day.

Excellent Home for a Chill Vacation

This house is absolutely stunning! Loved the beautifully landscaped yard that the screened in porch overlooked. Short, easy walk to the beach with owner provided chairs and umbrellas. These were very appreciated. We enjoyed all the house and surrounding area had to offer. My only negative comment is regarding the worn beds in the downstairs bedroom and the twin bed room. They squeaked something awful and we were surprised this would be the case in such a well appointed home. Besides a few of the beds, the home is lovely and provided a week's worth of quality family time. High recommend!

Just what our family needed!

This house is exactly as advertised. Beautiful setting, quick walk to the beach and great floor plan for families. The main level was perfect for myself, my husband and our three kids and the lower level was great for my in laws. The safety features around the pool gave us piece of mind with our kids and the pool and beach toys were just what we needed. We were able to quickly pack the beach cart with umbrellas, chairs, beach toys and life jackets and have a great day at the beach. Michael was a wonderful host and very respectful of our privacy. He and his wife were also so kind as to walk to the beach with us and take pictures of our whole family. We now have these memories to cherish forever. We would absolutely come back!

An amazing property for those looking to visit Captiva Island!

About the host

Hosted by Michael L

We have owned Providence since 2004. We visited Providence when we could and rented it out to families when we couldn't. We moved to live here full time in 2016 and constructed a new 4BR/4BA home on our 2 acre estate that was completed in 2019. We now offer this brand new home for rent to families and friends looking for a comfortable and well appointed place to relax and enjoy all that Captiva Island has to offer.

Why they chose this property

We think Providence is an exceptional home, with the finest construction products and beautifully and comfortably furnished. We rented vacation homes on Captiva for over a decade and know what is important to offer visitors.
Providence is in perfect shape and impeccably maintained. We have no rugs for sand to hide in and moisture to be trapped.
Our location provides privacy as well as access to a quiet beach and access to the channel on the other side of the property via a dock for guest use.
