About this property

Gulf-front Escape on Captiva Island - Sandpiper

Tucked along scenic Captiva Drive, Sandpiper is your Gulf-front ticket to the kind of barefoot escape that only Captiva Island delivers. This Old Florida beach cottage blends cabin-style charm with all the space your crew needs—think warm wood interiors, easy island vibes, and that rare combo of privacy and togetherness that makes group getaways actually work.

The main house keeps things simple and inviting: a comfortable living area for morning coffee and sunset stories, plus a full kitchen for whipping up casual island feasts. But here's where this Captiva vacation rental really shines—the private pool house. You've got a king bedroom for the adults, a bunk room with four twins (perfect for the kids or your friends who refuse to grow up), and an efficiency kitchen for midnight snacks. It's like having two homes in one.

Between the two houses? Your own slice of poolside paradise. Lounge by the water, then stroll straight to the beach for world-class shelling and sunsets that'll ruin you for anywhere else. The Sandpiper vacation rental puts you steps from powdery sand and minutes from Captiva Village's shops, restaurants, and island buzz.

This Sandpiper Captiva Island vacation rental isn't trying to be fancy—it's something better: authentic, spacious, and right where island life happens best. Book Sandpiper now and find out why families come back to this Gulf-front gem year after year.

*This fantastic Captiva Island vacation rental allows special events for up to 100 guests with a $2,000 plus tax fee; ask our fabulous vacation planning advisors for details!
