Private BEACHFRONT Point - Dolphins, Sunsets & Golf Cart Included/North Captiva!

This property was amazing. Very clean and comfortable. Any issues we had were quickly resolved by the team at Tortuga Properties.

Love the island, loved the house. Welcome and departure services almost inexistant. Big problem with the golf cart.

While we had a nice time. We would not return to this house. The house has great potential but it was not clean. I swept dark hair out of the corners of the bathroom, molded coffee grounds in the coffee maker, dirty grill and hundreds of dead fruit flies covering the counter. The golf cart was terrible. And we didn’t find any kayaks, hammock or beach chairs as the property shows in the listing. The beds were uncomfortable. However, the kitchen appliances were nice, the screened in porch was great. Location was fantastic. I was expecting “exceptional” per the reviews and it fell short. Definitely could get there. The property management was great and quick to respond when needed.

Things to consider before/after booking as well as our experience.(1) Ferry: You must pay to park at a marina (only golf carts on island) AND pay for a ferry to/from island. For my family of 4, over 400. Unexpected and overpriced. (2) No grocery stores: I packed all of our food (breakfast, snacks, drinks, etc.) but problem was, all the fresh baked muffins I brought for breakfast had to go into the trash because the house had sugar ants! Had we known the house had this issue we would have packaged differently or refrigerated. Given no stores on island, no way to replace, unacceptable. (3) Master Suite: The listing had a king size bed (one of my requirements/filters) but upon arrival, it was a queen! Apparently new home owner changed and forgot to update listing (we did not rest good). (4)Cleaning Fee: While you pay a huge cleaning fee, what you dont know is, at checkout you are expected to: wash/dry all towels, dishes, put out all trash, pull bed sheets off, etc. Now, if I was staying at a friends house or paying a low fee, I would absolutely do as common courtesy. However, when paying an astronomical fee to stay at this house AND a HUGE cleaning fee, not acceptable. We had other small issues too but dealt with those and tried to not let all the issues ruin our stay. We were offered a small refund which would not even pay for ferry little alone our bad experience and inconveniece. House was clean & amazing views but unfortunately with all issues, I cannot recommend. So sad

We enjoyed our week! The view is second to none, and Tortuga Properties made planning very easy and our stay wonderful!

Loved our stay. Will come back next year. Home nicely updated, we had everything we needed. Only cons were the golf cart needed some care and some screens missing on sun porch but the PROS definitely outweighed the cons.Thank you for letting us enjoy this relaxing home.

The entire experience was amazing. From the greeting when we arrived and the transition of our items to the house right up to the farewell at the end. This is the perfect spot on North Captiva island. Quiet and relaxing and beautiful.

The house was wonderful. The beach is steps away. Quiet, relaxing trip. Had a small problem with the shower but was fixed immediately. Will definitely be returning.

Wow! Is the best way to sum it all up. Did not really know what to expect after the storms but it is obvious and appreciated the work, time and effort that has gone into bringing Rainbows End into its current pristine condition. The location is amazing, My Wife, myself and our 2 year old Lab Buddy had the best time enjoying this property, the Beach, Sunrises, Sunsets and laid back vibe was amazing! Kudos to the Shallys Seashells Property Team for making this available. Russ, Diann & Buddy woof, woof, woof approved.

Beyond our expectations! This home and location was what we were looking for. Peace, fishing and relaxation. The home was spacious and clean. We hope to return to this home. Thanks for sharing your well appointed home.

Had a great time on North Captiva Island . Different vibe than Sanibel/Captiva . Shelling was excellent.

Perfect getaway! Very accommodating and a wonderful location. Will be back!

Very nice small house in a quiet setting. Beautiful location (and sunsets). Our only issue was bit of lack of communication from the local property manager. The local manager's young kids met us at the dock on arrival, which was a little odd, but then we had workmen show up unannounced twice - once working on the washer which we didn't know was an issue. Other than that, a great stay.

My family enjoyed the stay last week at this cottage right on the beach. Amazing views, saw dolphins while on the back deck. Remote, quiet, and relaxing. We had ants, the manager was responsive and had a professional out the next day. Just make sure to wear plenty of bug spray when outside, but that isn’t an issue with the property. Overall we were very pleased!

I am from the southwest Florida area and love Captiva. It had been sometime (pre-hurricane) since we had visited North Captiva. Rainbow’s End did not disappoint. First of all, the view is spectacular. You are right on the Gulf looking at Cayo Costa. We did indeed see manatees right out in front and actually got to swim with them. We also saw lots of dolphin and birds. This stretch of beach is amazing. It is so secluded you almost feel like you are the only people on the beach. What is fantastic about this property is the fact that it has a screened in porch across the entire front. You’re not sitting behind glass looking at the water. You’re actually able to sit out on the porch and hear the birds, hear the waves, and hear the rain. The stand out of this property was the outdoor shower. The Key lime body gel smelled amazing and was the perfect end to a day spent on the sand. The grill was brand new and we used it a lot. This house has everything you will need for a great day on the beach, chairs, noodles, floats, inner tubes, umbrellas, and toys for the kids. It was super clean and well stocked. We had plenty of room and with a little investment in the mattresses and the bedding, this place would be a home run. Shally’s Seashells Property management group was fantastic to work with. So responsive, so professional, and answered all of our questions. The grocery delivery service was amazing. We loved every minute here. This is a can’t miss property.

Wonderful property and location! Great management!

Great location and views. Just a great getaway and will stay again.
