    Very beautiful house. Had everything we needed to enjoy our week in Captiva. The screened in room on the ground level was a great place to hang out with friends and family. The pool was refreshing and the grill was brand new. The golf cart looked new and worked perfectly. We really enjoyed our time in this house and would rent it again if it is available.

    This was our 7th annual stay on North Captiva Island. I continue to be AMAZED at how well the island has recovered post-hurricane Ian! A true testament to the NCI community!Seashell Escape was absolutely perfect for my husband, me and our dog! The home looks just as advertised and everything was working properly.We barely used the golf cart provided, because the house is so close to the beach! But it is there when you want to explore the interior of the island. It' all beautiful!The private pool was SPECTACULAR! Communication with the staff at Vanage was always on point before, during and after our stay! I highly recommend this house and will definitely stay again!

    We really enjoyed our stay here on North Captiva island. The house was spotless and really nicely fitted out. We got a lot of use from the screen terrace as well as the pool and ping-pong table.The location was only a couple of minutes walk from the beach, which was always quiet. After a hectic week in Orlando before, this was a very peaceful and relaxing week. We saw manatees several times, as well as many other birds and animals. Great communication with our host whenever we needed anything, it was promptly sorted. Would highly recommend.

    Pros:We (family of 3) stayed in this home for spring break and loved it. The home is clearly professionally designed and decorated, very well thought out floor plan and every part of the home was efficiently put together. The pool (with related ground level entertaining space) has to be one of the best on the island and we spent a lot of time here. Plenty of well stocked essentials; soap, tp, towels, etc. The included dock slip and golf cart were great adds as we used both daily. The furniture (beds, couches, chairs, etc) were all comfortable; a rarity (to me) for VRBO homes We visited North Captiva with a group of five families, and this rental was the best out of the group of five by a long shot. Hands down, we would stay here again and not even bother to look elsewhere. It is professionally managed, and the management company was extremely responsive and helpful. Honestly, top marks to them as I don't think I ever had to wait more than 15 minutes for an answer to a question I had. Cons:I struggle to come up with negatives for this house as I really loved it, but here it is. In my view it is well suited to a family of 3 - 5, maybe 6 if you push it, but beyond that it would be tight. Maybe I am selfish and like my space, but I would not do two families here. Also, the dock space was tight, we had a standard center console boat (KeyWest 239) and we just squeezed in with our beam. If we had a bigger boat it would not have fit.

    The property is beautifully designed and flawlessly maintained. The location is great and our family (& our two dogs) had a wonderful time. Additionally, the Vanage team is extremely engaged and responsive. When minor issues arose they addressed them quickly and completely. As an example, we had a TV malfunction as a result of a power surge. The team replaced the TV immediately. We were incredibly impressed. This is the best service we’ve ever had at a short term rental. We will absolutely be staying with them again.

    Love, the fact, there’s no cars. Love that the development Of the area kept the natural environment and nature and didn’t clear cut it. If you want some peace and quiet, this is the place to be! I have lived in Florida for many years and was happy to experience this island that nobody ever talks about. You only ever hear Sanibel and Captiva I plan to go back yearly because of the tranquility of the island. The management company is superior to most that I have experience. I give them five stars for that.
