this is the cutest place ever! my husband and I got married on Sanibel and we booked both of these homes for some friends to stay in. It was all so so perfect! Thank you for the beach toys and puzzles. It was so islandy and cozy.

A wonderful getaway, convenient location to pristine beaches and an easy bike ride to restaurants on Captiva. Great price for a few days on Captiva Island!

Great Captiva Getaway

We had a great stay at the Bungalow! The house was clean and in order, communication with the property manager was superb. The beach was so close for sunset watching every night. The bungalow is right at the start of the bicycle path to Sanibel, so couldn’t have been more perfect for us. We just loved it!

Our much needed vacation!

The property more than met our expectations. Our host was friendly, knowledgeable and quick to respond to any needs or requests. We will definitely stay there if we are given the opportunity to come to Sanibel and Captiva again. We try to come every year to Sanibel.

So much beach, so little time!

This was my 3rd time to stay at the bungalow but having the pathway to the beach was a gamechanger for sure!! If you like shelling, and we do, it is the perfect place to stay as you can even do some night shelling close to the house. We will be back for certain in the future!

The beds were comfortable. The location was good. The kitchen was not acceptable. There were no teaspoons and what was there were missing rivets andwobbly handles. The pots and pans were in worse condition. There were two small glasses. Chipped dishes. The refrigerator was rusted and broken inside, it kept everything cold however no icemaker and only two ice trays kind of slim for the beach. The house was clean. The balcony railing was seriously loose. Lack of a bike trail leaving the house was very difficult. Will not be a repeat customer. Disappointed in Rosen Properties

Great location! Appliances rusted and should be updated. No ice maker, only one ice tray, and no drinking glasses. But management was great, overall we enjoyed it and would book again!

Great location and peaceful

We had 2 couples, and we loved the bungalow. It was perfect for the access to the beach, the open floor plan, and access to the rest of the island. We rented a golf cart, which was a fun way to explore Captiva. We also rented bikes with the easy access to the bike trails. We pushed the twin beds together and used it for one of the couples. Great house and location. Very quick communication from the property owner.

Beautiful Condo and Location

This condo is true to its listing. Beautifully decorated, very clean, and great views. Greg was friendly, very informative, and quick to respond. The area was quiet and within walking distance to some shops/restaurants, as well as a short walk to the beach. The unit was also stalked with anything we could need while staying there. We absolutely loved our stay and look forward to staying here again in the future!

Our Stay at The Bungalow

Clean. Within walking distance to the beach. Beach chairs and beach toys a nice touch. Good location. Quiet location. The only thing missing are draperies on all of the windows. The sun shines through the sliding glass doors in the morning and makes it a little warm. Could probably save some money by putting up blinds to keep the sun out and not run the air conditioner constantly. All in all we had a lovely stay at The Bungalow in Captiva . Thank you.

Sanibel not ready for tourist

It is sad to see the island it such a devastation state. We love Sanibel and were excited about our weekend, not knowing in what state the island was. I am sure the place used to be nice but the house is not in a good shape right now. Sending courage to rebuilt this beautiful sanctuary!

Captiva Guest House

Nothing fancy but good value for area. Hodgepodge of furnishings and rather old. Plusses were private access to beach was practically across the street and house had good space. Really need to have a working outside light to navigate the stairs at night. What was there wasn’t operational. We had to carry a flashlight with us after dark.

Nice Property

Our group was three women ages 55 to 84 and a 20 month old toddler. Mostly a very positive experience, but it would have been nice to have sliding glass door blinds or draperies for privacy in the living room, as it faced the main house. Also there were a lot of loose cords and cables in the living room which were enticing to a toddler. Except for the stairs which were difficult for the 84 year old and toddler, we would definitely consider returning here.

Don’t believe what you read.

Where do I start. No window coverings on most windows/sliders. Outlets in bathrooms did not work. TV’s did not work at arrival. No soap in bathrooms. AC was unable to keep space cool. Portable AC unit kept popping breaker. Could not open sliding glass doors. Holes in screens stuffed with newspaper. Porta-Potty in back yard a nice touch. This place was not ready for rental. I would graciously accept a refund.
