This was a very nice property and overall great experience! The owners were very easy to get ahold of and the property manager was very helpful on both arrival and departure… our vacation could not have gone smoother and my kids did not want to leave.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed your time at our home and island getaway. It's fantastic to hear that your children and grandchildren had a great time exploring the house, relaxing by the pool, and soaking in the beauty of the beaches. We're glad you got to experience the excitement of watching the planes land too! We hope to welcome you all back again soon for another memorable stay.
It was an AMAZING week from start to finish. The communication prior to arrival was extremely informative. We were met by a smile as we arrived on Captiva Island. He made sure we had everything we needed to get our vacation started right. The house is perfect with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Already planning our next trip!
Our family had a wonderful time staying here. The house has pretty much everything you need. Outside it has a swimming pool, hot tub, ping pong table, bean bags, hammocks, paddle boards, chairs, flat top grill, and umbrellas for the beach. The inside was amazing with a full kitchen. If we ever comeback to North Captiva, Tortuga Sunset will be at the top of our list!
Our stay at Tortuga Sunset was amazing! The house is exactly as described and was absolutely perfect! Our teenagers were hardly ever out of the pool and hot tub and the pool was nice and cool after a long beach day. Watching the planes and helicopters take off and land was a highlight for the whole family. Can’t imagine a better location on the island - staying next to the airstrip was fabulous! Great sunset views from the balcony and also enjoyed having a cup of coffee in the mornings while looking out at the ocean from my coffee spot in the dining room! Seeing the gopher tortoises around the island was so fun and definitely one of our favorite parts! Loved watching them munching on the grass and plants. Beaches were quiet and beautiful and there is exceptional shelling at the end of the road the house is on. We are avid shellers and have found both a Junonia and Scotch Bonnet on that beach which made our day! The owner was happy to answer any questions we had and it’s obvious how much they love & care for their home - it has everything you need! We spent a couple of rainy days doing puzzles and reading while still enjoying the setting. Shally’s property management was also great and there to pick us up and take us back to the ferry. 10/10 for the stay and we can’t wait to come back!
This was our third time staying on North Captiva, and life the first two times we loved every minute of our stay. But this time was different, it was better and it was this house that made the difference! From its location, to the layout of the house we absolutely loved it! The pool a d spa were a huge hit for everyone! The spa heater worked very well, unlike other homes that we have stayed at.
Shally’s grocery service was amazing and worth every penny of the fee! We will never do it any other way. Arriving after a long day of travel to find the fridge and pantry stocked with food was a very comforting.
This is a wonderful home for a family with kids or up to three couples(each room has a minimum a nice king bed). The open layout of the common areas makes time together intimate, while the room layout makes you feel like you have the place all to yourself.
I recommend this place to my family and friends and whoever else wants to visit the island.
Oh, and the golf cart was amazing! It was like driving a limo, we road around the island in comfort and style.

About the host
Hosted by ownerRez
We are the founders of Tortuga Paradise, and we invite you to check out our online reviews to see why guests love staying with us. We are proud to host travelers on beautiful car-free North Captiva Island, where we share our passion for island living and unforgettable family vacations. We are a passionate, adventure-loving family who discovered North Captiva by serendipity during our first visit in 2017 — and we instantly fell in love with the island. Since then, it has become a cherished part of our lives and family traditions. While my husband works as a landscape contractor in Michigan, I proudly serve as a pediatric RN at the University of Michigan. Together, we balance our careers with our greatest joy — time spent with our family of five children (ages 15 to 36), three sons-in-law, one daughter-in-law, and four grandchildren. Traveling together has been the foundation of our best memories. We are deeply committed to preserving the beauty and uniqueness of North Captiva. We support island conservation and community efforts, including educational signage, infrastructure improvements, and sustainable beach access projects to help protect this special place for future generations. Our home is your home. We hope you experience the magic, peace, and tropical beauty of North Captiva Island as deeply as we have.
