Paradise That Feels Like Home

This property was perfect for our family vacation. The house is very well stocked including chairs and umbrellas for the beach. The pool was refreshing after getting back from the beach and the grill was perfect for making a family dinner. The pool and ping pong table were perfect for late night fun. We will definitely be back.

Beautiful home and setting

Beautiful new furniture and fully stocked kitchen. All the bathrooms were new. It was our 50th wedding anniversary and our children came with us. We all love Captiva and haven’t been back for 8 years.Fishing trip, jet skis and ice cream. Every day on the beach.I found the 4th bedroom in the cabana a little disappointing. It was advertised accurately. But if 4 adult couples are staying it is less than ideal

Ready to be back

The house was just what we had expected- however we did miss the part of the one bedroom being downstairs off the main level. It is in the description so that’s on us. Our kids loved the pool and the short walk to the beach wasn’t bad at all. When I did need to reach out to Kevin regarding a propane tank he got it taken care of the same evening.

Holiday Family Memories

We were so pleased with such a beautiful home that perfectly suited our family vacation! There were 5 adults and 3 children, ages 5-10. The large living, dining, and kitchen area was the central gathering place, while the bedroom/bathroom areas provided just the right amount of privacy. Location to the beach and restaurants was great!

We had a great stay and the host was really good about answering a ton of questions we had prior. The home was in nice shape and had everything we needed for our stay, the pool and the beach. The pool was a nice size and the beach was a quick walk and suitable for young kids. Most shops, restaurants, etc are all in easy walking distance. Such a nice, quiet, hidden gem if you are looking to just relax in this secluded yet efficient area.

About the host

Hosted by Kevin P. Mainord

Host profile image
My business partner and our Families live in a small town of 3400 in rural Missouri. We are farmers and Agri-Businessmen. We have always dreamed of a vacation home. This is our dream home, in our dream location. We hope that you enjoy this home as much as our own families.

Why they chose this property

The home is within walking distance of everything you will love about Captiva. While close to everything, Chapin Lane is very quiet. The home is spacious with all the amenities that you want in a vacation home. Enjoy sitting on the screened porch, our relaxing by the pool. For the winter months, the heated pool is wonderful, and if you want to warm up, just jump in the spa that is attached to the pool. We hope you love our home as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

Our home is in the greatest location for relaxing. From the secluded pool and spa, to the privacy you'll enjoy from any adjoining neighbor. Also, you will enjoy the views of the fantastic landscaping and all the greenery. You'll always feel you're close to the outdoors because of all the glass in the home. From the expansive glass arched windows in the dining area, to the huge glass patio doors in the living area, the views are fantastic.
