This beautiful home is right on the Florida sugar sand beach, which is often uninhabited except by wading birds, ghost crabs, osprey and snook. This property features direct beach access so you can walk right onto the beach and into the Gulf of Mexico. North Captiva Island features some of the most secluded beaches in the continental United States. Many times of the year, your family may be the only ones on the beach.

North Captiva Island is only accessible by water taxi and there are no cars on the island. Transportation on the island is by golf cart which is provided with your rental, walking or bicycle. There are no paved roads, only sandy paths winding through tropical vegetation. It is truly a unique setting. Palm trees, gumbo limbo trees and beautiful flowers are everywhere.

Our favorite activities are fishing, shelling, swimming and exploring the beach and state land. There are a large number of wading birds, gopher tortoises, raccoons, brown pelicans, osprey, egrets, cormorants, bald eagles, ibis and sanderlings. There are two very nice swimming pools and hot tub maintained by our island club a short walk or golf cart drive from our house. Kayaks and bicycles are also available at no charge through the island club. Tarpon, sea trout, red fish, snook, and snapper may be caught from the shore. Shelling is a daily activity on the island. North Captiva is often described as the shelling capital of North America.

Our house, Beach's Edge, is beautifully appointed and newly updated. The kitchen includes new stainless steel appliances and gulf views. The living room includes new leather couches and flat screen TV. There are 2 bedrooms on the main floor: a master bedroom with a gulf view and a guest bedroom with two bunk-beds. There is one full bath on the main floor.

Because the house is on the west shore of North Captiva we are often witness to stunning sunsets which can be observed from your bedroom or the back deck. Don't forget your camera to help capture some memories. If you are lucky you may see Dolphin playing in the surf, Tarpon showing past the first breakers and the legendary stoop of the brown pelican fishing. This has got to be one of the prettiest and most unusual places you will ever see.

    Overall the property presents a stunning setting and access to the beach. We had some issues that we promptly answered or taken care of by the property management company. The only compliant is the bed mattresses were extra firm and a little hard to sleep on depending on what you are used to. Definitely would rent this property again. Duncan with the property management company was great as well.

    This was our second time staying at Beach’s Edge and it continues to be our favorite vacation spot. Easily the best views in the island right from your deck! The house is perfect and the addition of the hot tub on the upper deck made our stay even more fun. Kids loved playing on the beach, collecting shells and taking in amazing sunsets. We saw dolphins, osprey, manatee, tortoises etc! This house has plenty of room and had been nicely updated since we last stayed. Downstairs area was a great spot for the grandparents to join us and have their own space! Property managers made the stay easy from checking in to heading out. You can find bigger homes on North Cap but none that are worth the location you give up. You won’t regret choosing Beach s Edge!

    The location of the home is amazing. The 3rd bedroom is separate from the rest of the house. House manager Duncan is awful. He never gave us his contact info. Hot tub cover kept blowing off so could not use kitchen sink clogged. Bath tub clogged. Cart kept breaking down. It is the only way to get around the island. We could not go to club to swim or go to restaurants. When we asked for another cart they would send repair person. All fixed!! Wrong broken down again. This went on for two weeks Do Not Rent!!!

    This house was better than I could have imagined. This was our first visit to North Captiva and I could not have picked a better location to stay. The views are priceless. We loved everything about the island and the house and will be back for certain. The property owner and management co was easy to work with and provided us with everything we needed and then some. Thank you so much for making this a wonderful week of memories and fabulous shelling!

    We loved staying here!!!! The house was perfect!!! The oven and beach area was amazing!!! Such perfect sunsets. We couldn’t have asked for a better week! The only thing is the downstairs is completely separate from the upstairs! BUT it worked in our favor!!! My parents stayed down there and had privacy from my husband and I with our kids!! It was so so good!!

    Maybe some kind of checklist to know where to go and what to do. Seems like the miscommunication between the owner and the property manager and all involved was liking..the house was supposed to be finished. The contractor was supposed to be out of there. And it just didn't happen.

    Stunning sunset views from the deck! It just might be the perfect beach house, the water is closer than it appears in the pictures. The house has been beautifully updated since the pics in the listing. North Captiva is the perfect plus to unplug and relax. Added bonus that the beds and linens were very comfortable.

    Our family had a perfect weeklong stay at Beaches Edge. It was our first time to the island and we were a little nervous at first about the remoteness of it all, but that turned out to be the best part—we were forced to disconnect and relax. We loved the beach view/access and made sure to catch the sunset every night, often from the deck. One night, a bunch of dolphins played right out front of the house just before sunset! Our kids (ages 3 & 7) spent hours playing in the sand and finding seashells. Access to the island club was a nice perk, especially on a windy day when the ocean was a little rough. The kids loved the pool and we enjoyed getting lunch at Mangoes. Grocery delivery (and the midweek fresh fish delivery) made everything very easy. All in all, it was just what our busy family needed and we can’t wait to return!

    We had another wonderful stay at Beaches Edge. There were several updates done on the home since our last stay that made a world of difference! We look forward to coming back next year.
