The south end of the island is beautiful state protected preservation land, accessible by foot, home to turtles and birds. You can watch dolphins, manatee and even otters on the bay side of the island often!

We fell in love with North Captiva Island on our first visit and are thrilled to be able to share Second Star with our guests. It is a very special place for us where we watch the sun set over palm trees from our balcony, listen to the soft waves on endless miles of beaches, feel the sand between our toes and smell salt water and exotic flowers year round while sitting and watching the wildlife. Please be sure to help preserve the beauty of this enchanted tropical hideaway by only observing its treasures.

We are happy to answer your questions and help you to make travel arrangements to and from the island.

    My family and I stayed here for a week in June. It was absolute perfection. The home was fantastic… we especially loved the beautiful open living room and stunning sunset views. The pool is right next door and the beach is just steps away. We would absolutely stay here again. Thank you to the hosts!

    Fantastically comfortable, clean and well-appointed property. It has everything you need and then some! The owners were flexible and very helpful with getting us ready for the trip and letting us know what to expect. We enjoyed star-gazing from the deck, and the private access to the beach and pool was a nice perk! If you're thinking about staying here - you should!

    We had a wonderful stay. House was perfect and very comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped and the beds were comfortable. We really enjoyed the location being on the pond, close to the beach, near the swimming pool, and close to the few restaurants. We had a great time and hope to go back to Second Star soon.

    Janice and Greg were extremely helpful with planning the groceries and transportation to the island. The house is adorable and has a lovely pool right next door. We had the best family vacation for spring break. There’s lots of nature on the island, the beaches are beautiful and the pool was perfect for a late afternoon swim. I can’t wait to go back!! I miss it already.

    This is a fantastic property in a great location with great hosts! We so enjoyed our stay. Location is particularly great for kids, being on a quiet little lakeside road just a couple doors down from the pool and a quick cart ride to the beach. Janice was tremendously helpful in giving guidance for us to get our trip logistics lined up, and very responsive when I had a few last minute questions. Made for a terrific family vacation.

    We really enjoyed our stay! Janice was very responsive and helpful as we stayed at the property during a hurricane. We would definitely go back.

    We had no idea what North Captiva had in store, and we are so thankful we tried this slice of paradise out! It was wonderful to escape the busy life of work and activities and head to a place where you truly have little to no decisions to make. Second Star was a wonderful home away from home. The home owners were easy to work with and provided so many tips to make this unique experience smooth. We travelled with our 3 children, ages 14, 10 and 7 and they all had a wonderful time, too. The beach extras of chairs, umbrellas and sand toys provided easy beach days and light packing. We HIGHLY recommend North Captiva and Second Star to anyone looking to truly unplug and relax.
