Excellent property in excellent location! Better than advertised. Ease of access to bay, harbor, and gulf was awesome. Pool and surrounding space and balcony were great as well. Very well maintained/ updated. Left nothing to be desired. Property management company was very helpful.

Amazing location and view, house had everything we needed for our family vacation. Regularly saw dolphins, manatees, herons, chameleons, and more while on the island. So nice to be walking distance to Mainstay Barnacles too, for the NYE fireworks.

This was the best trip we have ever been on! The pictures do not do this house justice. The view is so beautiful and relaxing. They have everything there for you (Kayaks, paddle board, swimming pool) My kids spent most of the time outside! We did lots of fishing and got to see dolphins and manatees. We have already been talking about when we could go back!!

Beautiful, peaceful natural sanctuary
The property and the island were so relaxing and peaceful. Not overcrowded at all, really a great place to get away. The property managers were A++ helpful for coordinating coming and going for a property that requires a little more of that to get to by boat.

Overall was a wonderful experience and directly ad described. No shortage of things to do and was stocked with chairs, and amenities. The view itself is of course worth it but the Blue Marlin made you feel at home and in luxury as well with the gorgeous deck overlooking the inter coastal. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an on the water experience.

Dear Irene,
We LOVE that you find Sea Urchins to be a slice of "Heaven on Earth". We love the location too, and we are so glad you were able to enjoy your vacation fishing, dolphin watching, shelling, beach combing with your family. Because it is a bridge less island, and has over 5 miles of pristine beaches North Captiva is the perfect place for beach-loving, sea-loving families like yours. We look to having you all back again!
Wishing you all the best!
Sandy and Charlie

The house was extremely clean and had all the amenities that we needed. The pool and the commercial ice maker were a thrill to have for the 2 week period.
We would definitely like to return again next year.

The Blue Marlin is an amazing property. We enjoyed the sunrise views from our deck every morning and spent a great deal of time on the deck throughout the day. We saw dolphins, manatee, a variety of birds, boats and airplanes from this vantage point daily. The home is well appointed, decorated and maintained. Walking down the steps and out to the shore is always a great feature. The online description is very accurate. The homeowners were very helpful and responsive to any inquiries we had. The property managers were helpful in assisting us with our needs during our stay. We look forward to returning.

この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
"The Blue Marlin" is located on over an acre of land. More than half of the property is set aside as preserve area, that was restored to native vegetation when the homesite was prepared. A boat dock was carefully constructed along the Safety Harbor, and guests of "The Blue Marlin" can use the protected dock space for their boats, rental craft, or private charter. It is also a good place to fish, sunbath and watch for friendly dolphins. As part of of State permitting requirements, the home was built on pilings at elevations more than 17 feet above sea level. The result is a breathtaking views of Pine Island Sound and the surrounding Charlotte Harbor Aquatic Preserve. Safety Harbor, the Gulf of Mexico, Captiva Pass, Cayo Costa Island, Cabbage Key, Use, and the historic fishing shacks of Pine Island Sound can all be viewed from the house. "The Blue Marlin" is located adjacent to Salty Approach, the grass airstrip, and typically, once or twice a day small airplanes land or takeoff. Because of the house orientation, landing aircraft pass right by the porches--it is thrill to watch! The waters right in front of the runway are a favorite hangout for dolphin families and they are sighted daily playing and fishing along the beach. Occasional pods of manatees are also sighted along the shore and off the dock in Safety Harbor. Shorebirds abound and ospreys and pelicans drift past the house porches on the sea breezes. "The Blue Marlin" is like no other property on the North Captiva or anywhere else--we look forward to sharing it with you!
