Nice house in a fabulous location! As longtime visitors and previous residents of Sanibel/Captiva we enjoyed our return visit to the island after Covid and devastating hurricanes. The house was large enough to accommodate our extended family.

Great spot on Captiva, house is super nice. Quick walk to the beach (maybe 2 mins?). Great pool area if you get tired of the beach.

This home was perfect in all ways for our family dream vacation. Room for everyone, there were seven of us, ages 73-8. Big screen enclosed pool area with ping pong, pool, tiki bar, grill and more. A cooks kitchen, everything needed to cook family meals. Comfortable beds, large bathrooms. Walk to beach, just about 100 yards. All the beach paraphernalia, umbrellas, chairs, toys for the kids, I could go on and on as to why this house was the perfect place for our family vacation. The Bubble Room, ice cream shop, and convenience store all in just a short walk from the house. Bonus view, an huge Osprey and nest. Craig our host was extremely responsive. Absolutely loved our time here.

Absolutely wonderful!

We couldn’t have asked for more! The location and house were outstanding. We loved the short walk to the beach and to restaurants and shops. The house was also super well equipped, better than any property we’ve ever stayed at on the island. We loved the huge screened in pool, deck, and tiki bar area. Lee and Bonnie were also super helpful upon entry to the property. We will definitely be back again!

Fun week with friends

4 couples spent the week here celebrating a birthday, walking on the beach, playing pool and ping pong at the house, swimming in the heated pool, enjoying local restaurants and just relaxing. It was a great place for all of this! We all had our own spaces and the together spaces were wonderful! Great week with great friends in a great house!

Family Vacay on Captiva

The home was amazing! It was clean, very spacious and had everything we needed in the house and for the beach. Plenty of beds and room for 10 adults. The pool, ping pong table, pool table, and tiki bar were a great hit when we were not at the beach. The host was great. Captiva is back! Most businesses and restaurants were open. The live music at the restaurants was great. I highly recommend this house and a vacation to Captiva

Amazing property in a perfect location

Tropical Breeze is the perfect property for families and friends. It is steps from the beach and it is a beautiful home. The kitchen is kitted out extensively to cook, bake and serve at scale. Multiple refrigerators and freezers helped us to stock our big shopping for the week. Lee and Bonnie are wonderful hosts. They personally welcomed us and helped us with any questions that we had.

Perfect for large families!

We spent a wonderful week at tropical breeze with adult kids and grandchildren and this house was perfect! The location to the beach is just steps from the front door and we spent most of our days there. When the kids wanted a “change” they’d switch it up to the very comfortably heated pool. The home was spotlessly clean. The kitchen is appointed with everything you could need to prepare any meal, ( we were there for thanksgiving and pulled off a traditional roast turkey dinner)! The bedrooms are spacious and they even used the master bedroom closets to set up pack and plays for the kiddos! We enjoyed the pool and ping pong tables in the evening and played games by the tiki bar. It was ideal! Lee was over the top terrific in his communication, kindness and generosity. There were gifts for the kids when we arrived and he even loaned my son in law his personal golf clubs! I cannot recommend this home highly enough. It was worth every penny and we hope to return someday!

Perfectly appointed for family fun

We’ve vacationed on Sanibel and Captiva for decades as a family, and I can honestly say this was one of our favorite vacation homes to visit. Upon arrival, Lee was at the house and ready to greet us and show us around. The location and proximity to the beach can’t be beat! We noticed the cleanliness of the property immediately. Even the beach chairs had been dusted of sand and were ready for use. Everything has been very well thought out for the perfect beach vacation. There were plenty of floating toys for the kids with an air compressor to blow things up (huge perk!). The outdoor shower was perfect for cleaning up after the beach. Plenty of beach towels to go around. The pool area is lovely and so entertaining. With the pool table and ping pong table, even with the rain we had, there was something fun for us to do. We loved the space in the kitchen. It had everything you could possibly need. Very well appointed! Thank you Lee and Bonnie! You made this trip very special for us!

A Breeze at Tropical Breeze!!!🌴

We stayed a wonderful week at Tropical Breeze. We have stayed at many houses in the area from North Captiva to Captiva. Really can’t say enough about the house, location and the helpfulness of the property managers. We arrived on a very early flight- 7:30 am. By the time we arrived at the house after doing a few things it was before check in. Lee ( manager) allowed us the use the pool, beach towels, beach equipment and change in the tiki pool bathroom.- Prior to checking in. Which in turn we were able to check in early because it worked out. Everything about the house was perfect. Very spacious for 10 people. Everyone had a space to unwind by themselves and great areas to congregate. They young adults loved the tiki bar area with pool and game room area. The kitchen was so well equipped even though we really didn’t cook that much!!!! Two floors of bed rooms with each floor having their own washer/dryer, can’t go wrong. There were other hidden gems to this house I didn’t even realize until we got there. To many to list. Trust me loved the house. There were 2 families ranging from 82 to 16 years old. I have to say the first rental we all agreed on to rent again. The walk to the beach was very short and easy. There were 2 carts to hale the stuff which had chairs for us all and umbrellas. Good beach towels were provided. The manger Lee and his wife Bonnie were incredible. Whenever we had a question or concern they answered our text immediately. They were very accommodating and very thorough with their care of the property. I would suggest anyone looking for a house for a large party to rent Tropical Breeze!!!🌴 Ps they have an outdoor air compressor to blow up your Floatable’s for pool and beach. How many houses are say this!!!! 🌴❤️🏝⛱🐠

House is perfect location, within steps to beach access, restaurants, ice cream etc. Next time we would not even rent a golf cart. Floors could have been a little cleaner-we had two crawling babies so noticed this more than usual. But well stocked with pool towels, beach cart and chairs!

This rental property was everything the VRBO posting showed, and then some. It was the perfect base for activities at the restaurants, stores, as well as a very quick walk to the beach. The very nice pool and recreation area, including foosball, ping-pong, and pool were a nice alternative when the weather was not as great, or everyone just needed a break from the beach. The kitchen area with a very large island worked very well when there were six adults and five children making their breakfast or lunches. We would highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a nice quiet, and relaxing location in Captiva Island.
