About this property

Exclusive BEACHFRONT home in North Captiva, Florida.

Welcome to Paradise Found!
Here it is, a truly one-of-a-kind beachfront vacation home located directly on the beach of North Captiva. Boat-only access to this incredible property welcomes you to your own private dock. From here you will meander through the mangroves to enter this stunning, designer beach house. This home has been beautifully appointed with comfort and luxury in mind. The utmost attention to every detail was intended to maximize your overall experience of the island and your enjoyment of the beauty surrounding this unique and amazing home where privacy and comfort abounds.
Walk up the steps to your well appointed gourmet kitchen and great room. Cooking for your crowd is an absolute joy as you dice, slice, bake and sauté while enjoying the most incredible 360 degree view of the pristine white sand beach, pine trees, mangroves and crashing waves. Open up all of the newly replaced sliding glass doors and feel as though you are living in the pine trees while enjoying the refreshing gulf breezes. Take a seat in your living room complete with casually elegant and comfortable furnishings and decor and pour a cocktail at your bar with separate ice machine and wine/beer fridge at the perfect temperature. Step out onto your wraparound deck and take in the panoramic views which enable you to watch magnificent sunrises over the Pine Island Sound and breathtaking sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico.
First floor master bedroom is beautifully furnished with a Prana king sized bed. En suite private bathroom is spa like. Wake up and take in the fabulous gulf view. Also on the first floor is a bunk bed room complete with two full and two twin beds. Bathroom attached has a bathtub to facilitate easy beach clean up for kids. Walk upstairs to your second master, also furnished with a Prana king sized bed and attached to a spa like private bathroom. Walk out onto your private deck attached to the bedroom and listen to the osprey nesting just a few feet away. Last bedroom is furnished with two queen beds and another private deck overlooking the mangrove treetops and an amazing view of the bay.
The island scenery abounds in every direction.
This is truly a unique vacation spot where you can enjoy beach walks, shelling, paddle boards and kayaks, and some of the best fishing in the world right off your dock. You will see dolphins every day. As if on cue, in our experience, they seem to gracefully swim by just as we relax with a cocktail on the deck. No rushing to beat the masses and reserve a spot on the beach here. We have ample beach chairs, umbrellas, lounges and everything you could want for a relaxing and private day on the beach. No crowds or loud, annoying neighbors as you enjoy beach life. Rinse away the sand and salt in our outdoor shower. Enjoy seclusion and relaxation with your family.
We have come to enjoy grabbing a cup of coffee and walking a few steps to Redfish Pass to hook a snook or a trout with the rising sun. In addition, contacts for world class fishing guides are available for you. Arrangements can be made to pick you up right from the dock.
***This home is boat access only. Transportation to and from the island will be provided by the property manager. A boat is available to rent for qualified boaters. We find the boat truly enhances the experience. With the boat, you will be able to visit one of the small shops nearby for the forgotten items off of your list, or grab bait for fishing. A short boat ride away is the famous Cabbage Key, original home to "Cheeseburgers in Paradise". Also, the restaurants on Captiva and Sanibel are reopening and are better than ever. Some of our favorites are The Mucky Duck, the Green Flash and the Captiva House at Tween Waters..... just to name just a few.
We have been renting beach homes for many years. This spot has surpassed them all. After renting a house four doors down the beach for two years, we decided to take the plunge and buy our own. This is truly a unique and amazing experience. Prepare to completely unwind and relax as you enjoy beach living at its finest!
*** If you have never visited North Captiva before, it is truly a unique experience. There are no cars and no roads and no crowds. Provisioning requires a little planning as you will not be able to hop in the car to get that forgotten grocery item. Services are available through Publix, Instacart and private shoppers to take care of everything you will need. Order groceries ahead by going to Publix grocery store website and clicking shop. Next it should ask you to select a location, select, 3015 Southwest Pine Island Rd., Cape Coral, FL 33991. Then you order through instacart. Under one of the items you have selected write: Order for North Captiva. Please prepare all items to be BOAT READY. They will put meats and other items in coolers for you. When you arrive at the supermarket, pull into a parking space marked, PICK UP. Call (239) 282-0625 and tell them you are there for your PICK UP order. Then continue on to Pine Island Marina to be whisked away to your private paradise.

A must stay!!
This house was truly amazing!! We had the best vacation with our entire family of 11 and had the best time. The house was stocked with everything you can imagine and all the beach equipment to keep the family entertained for days. We boated, rode beach bikes, floated on the Bote floats, grilled out, played cornhole, and so much more. The ice maker and the new screens to keep bugs out of the deck were a complete game changer!! This is our second time staying at one of Lionel’s properties and it definitely will not be the last! Can’t say enough good things about it!

Absolutely Amazing
Not very often. Do you show up to a property and it is much better than actually described. The house, the property the location and the people were absolutely amazing. Lionel, Tyler and their team were over the top great. I didn't know what to expect being at the house was very secluded, and myself, and my entire family were absolutely blown away at how nice and clean And accommodating the home and area was. The house and property have everything you need. Whether it's plates cups spices pots pans a grill. They have everything you need plus more. We were very impressed with all of the amenities. I highly recommend this home and we will definitely be coming back.

Absolutely Amazing!!!
Norman and Jessie were amazing! I couldn’t say enough good things about these guys! I was really afraid being off the grid would be stressful but they did everything for us whenever any issues arrived! The water filter needed replaced, boom they were there quickly to fix the problem! The home was beautiful, views were stunning, and amenities were plentiful! If you want relaxation, this is the place!!!!! I was even surprised to find a new charged AED in the home! All the kids loved it- ages 22, 20, 14,, 11, and 2 three year olds!

The Best Place to Get Away
The home is charming, clean, and the perfect getaway. The property manager insures that all the details run smoothly and is at the ready to answer any questions. Compared to other--often too crowded--places in Florida, North Captiva often feels like our own private island paradise.

Good time had by all!
We enjoyed our time at Paradise Found. The private beach was amazing. There was only a few times that someone walked by us at the beach. We have never had that experience on beaches in Florida. Shelling was terrific. The house was very comfortable and very well stocked and the sunsets were amazing. Lionel was out of town but his crew - Norm, Jesse and Tyler were great. Some of our crew enjoyed the fishing and they even brought more bait for our guys to fish with. We rented the pontoon and parked at Jensens Marina, a cab picked us up and took us to Sanibel for the day for beaching and biking. The only complaint I have is that we were NOT told that we shouldn't book a flight home so early in the morning. They weren't able to take us back to the Pineland Marina in the dark and you have to take into consideration the fog in the morning, etc. There can be many variables when vacationing on an island that we weren't aware of. We had to change our flights (which was a nightmare trying to get 8 people booked in these times) and it cost us many thousands of additional dollars. I am only writing this so that someone doesn't make the same mistake we did. Overall, it was a wonderful family adventure.

Beautiful!
Property was just as pictured! Having your own boat is essential and knowing how to navigate the crazy sandbars. In the description of this property it seemed like it would be simple to hire a water taxi. It is but you have to walk 4 miles to the north end of north Captiva and on the beach to get the harbor. We were able to pay someone to bring us back to our dock. It was expensive! Overall great experience- but be prepared with groceries and essentials!

Fantastic!
We had a fantastic stay. Lionel and his staff helped us in all aspects of this wonderful adventure.... brought my own boat and met Lionel at Marina. He escorted us out to house and had a crew there to help us unload. Immediately available for any and all issues.... nothing significant. The house itself is wonderfully appointed. Additionally, lots of beach toys, chairs, accessories. Kitchen stocked with lots of basics. Marvelous experience.... will return.

Perfect Vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home! From pick up to drop off it was a great experience. The home is in perfect condition and well maintained. The location is unbeatable with almost no one else on the beach. We saw dolphins multiple times every day. Fishing is great right from the dock. We also rented a boat which was great for visits to Cabbage Key, Captiva, and more. Overall an amazing experience.

Our New Go-To
If you are wondering how to get away from the insanely busy and populated Florida Panhandle, North Captiva is your answer--calm, serene, and beautiful. This lovely property is somewhat secluded and yet shopping and restaurants are but a short boat ride away. The property managers--Lionel, Suzanne, and Tanner--made the check-in and check-out process effortless and were always available to answer questions. We have stayed at many beautiful beaches around the world, but this is the one that will be our new steady go-to. Retirement plans in North Captiva? Definitely a possibility now.

Unique Florida Experience
This is a magnificent home but the setting and experience is what makes it truly 5 star. If you have a bit of boating experience and want a fun adventure this is the place for you. Hosts were super helpful and getting to and from was a breeze - boating and fishing the inland water and exploring the other islands in the area was a blast and the beach and sunsets can't be beat!

Ten of us, 7 adults and 3 young children found paradise. The house is amazing and accomodated the 10 of us perfectly. The wrap around porch is a great and adds lots of space and provides a perfect place to watch the sun set after a day at the beach. Lionel was great and made us feel welcome immediately.
