Quiet, clean townhouse. Relaxing winner. Harbor view, short Gulf walk…

Nice place! We had fun! The host was very helpful and responsive!

Convent location. Would have liked a door to separate the bathroom from the bedroom. Enjoyed the island! Thank you for hosting your home to us.

Firstly, I have to say that the property management was great. The check-in/out process was super easy and their responsiveness to issues was very fast. Having a golf cart is great! The place however, was not as expected. The location was great, but it has the appearance that the owner fixed it up a year or two ago and hasn’t done anything with it since. The floors are peel and stick, in that hot/humid environment they are lifting and curling, loose. Walls are dirty and marked. Many light switches don’t work, lamp broken. Listing says 1 kayak and 1 canoe, there were 2 kayaks and one of them had a broken hull and could not be used. The paddle boards are there, but no grips on them so they were very slippery and hard to use. The tap water is well and very smelly and undrinkable (future renters plan ahead for this)! A dresser for clothing storage would be nice in the main bedroom, there are just some shelves. Cleaning crew did not do an amazing job, floors and rugs were dirty. The place worked for us and our teenage kids, but we were surprised that it had 5/5 stars at the time of booking.

We loved this townhouse for its central location and size for our family. Glenn (the owner) was great leading up to the stay even during when the property management team (Shally’s) was not responsive. Highly recommend this townhouse, we stayed 8 days and it was exactly what we needed for our vacation.

Very wonderful 10 day stay, enjoying the beautiful beaches and quiet atmosphere of the island life.

Great spot and convenient as we took our own boat over for the week. Property manager was extremely responsive. Hope to make it back again next year.

Convenient location, came with golf cart, pickleball and tennis equipment, kayaks and paddles, beach chairs and beach towels. New washer and dryer. Great layout with calming beach decor. Nice bedding and towels, good water pressure. Kid friendly and beautiful views. There’s a little beach area close by where we would walk over to for fishing and to put kayaks in to paddles through the mangroves. Very close to one of the restaurants and boat dock. Quiet and lovely. Neighbors were very friendly. Shelly Seashells made arrival and departure seamless and if we had any questions or needed anything, Ally was quick to respond. We had a wonderful vacation with our 3 children and can’t wait to go back!

Very nice stay! Everything super easy to book

North Captiva takes a bit extra planning and a bit more logistics than your typical Florida beach vacation. However, you are rewarded pristine nature and very small crowds. I got the sense that this is what Florida used to be like before every beach had a high rise condo building and mini golf course. Our family of 4 stayed in this Safety harbor condo. It’s smaller and bit older, but had everything we needed for a great trip. Also, the property manager handled grocery and fresh seafood delivery for us, which was a huge stress reducer compared to some of the other families on the outbound ferry. The condo came with a golf cart, beach chairs, 2 kayaks, 2 paddle boards (though only 1 life jacket) tennis rackets, spike ball, and pool floats. You have access to two tennis courts and a smaller community pool. Although the condo is on the bayside, it’s no big deal to go to the beach and more economical. There is no traffic and you are never fighting for a parking spot. The condo had 3 br and 2baths. Couple of odd layout things (master bath doesn’t have a door to br, br 3 has low ceiling, and you have to go through bath to get to br3). Otherwise no issues. It was well stocked, towels, cookware, spices, basic toiletries, etc). It’s also worth noting there is a lot of construction post hurricane, and only two restaurants were open. Regardless, If you enjoy being off the beaten path like we do and don’t love crowds, this is a wonderful place.

Cozy property with good location close to Safety Harbor dock. Shally’s Seashells was great with offloading and communication throughout our stay.
