The Bungalow - Captiva Beach Cottage on Turner Beach

Great location. Temp air units didn’t keep space cooled down, but everything else was great.

As other reviewers have noted, property is dated. Appliances have rust. There was dead and alive bugs (huge ants and flies) in the kitchen and the living room area. Great location.

this is the cutest place ever! my husband and I got married on Sanibel and we booked both of these homes for some friends to stay in. It was all so so perfect! Thank you for the beach toys and puzzles. It was so islandy and cozy.

Beach was awesome!

Great location! Appliances rusted and should be updated. No ice maker, only one ice tray, and no drinking glasses. But management was great, overall we enjoyed it and would book again!

This property was clean enough and close to the beach. Plenty of towels were available and the beds were comfortable.A few things made up our mind not to stay at this property again. Firstly, nearly every appliance in the kitchen as well as the washer and dryer had rust on the interior and exterior. My husband went to get an ice cube for his drink from the freezer and it had rust particles on it. Secondly, the built-in ice maker on the outside of the fridge was broken and the stopper in the bathtub was not working. We let the owners know when we got there. They promised to send a tech the next day. No one came the entire time we were there. I am more of a shower person than a tub one but I just had foot surgery a few weeks before the trip and my doc prescribed me to soak in warm standing water at least once a day which I was not able to do. The last issue was that there was no carbon monoxide detector and the fire detector was ripped out of the wall.The microwave was the tiniest we have ever seen and the shower head made it highly unpleasant to take a shower. The owner offered 10% applied toward our next visit if we gave a good review but we just were not able to do that given all the issues. More consideration needs to be given to the guest and their overall vacation experience.

We had 2 couples, and we loved the bungalow. It was perfect for the access to the beach, the open floor plan, and access to the rest of the island. We rented a golf cart, which was a fun way to explore Captiva. We also rented bikes with the easy access to the bike trails. We pushed the twin beds together and used it for one of the couples. Great house and location. Very quick communication from the property owner.

We had a great stay at the Bungalow! The house was clean and in order, communication with the property manager was superb. The beach was so close for sunset watching every night. The bungalow is right at the start of the bicycle path to Sanibel, so couldn’t have been more perfect for us. We just loved it!

Excellent and cozy

Clean. Within walking distance to the beach. Beach chairs and beach toys a nice touch. Good location. Quiet location. The only thing missing are draperies on all of the windows. The sun shines through the sliding glass doors in the morning and makes it a little warm. Could probably save some money by putting up blinds to keep the sun out and not run the air conditioner constantly. All in all we had a lovely stay at The Bungalow in Captiva . Thank you.

Our group was three women ages 55 to 84 and a 20 month old toddler. Mostly a very positive experience, but it would have been nice to have sliding glass door blinds or draperies for privacy in the living room, as it faced the main house. Also there were a lot of loose cords and cables in the living room which were enticing to a toddler. Except for the stairs which were difficult for the 84 year old and toddler, we would definitely consider returning here.

This was my 3rd time to stay at the bungalow but having the pathway to the beach was a gamechanger for sure!! If you like shelling, and we do, it is the perfect place to stay as you can even do some night shelling close to the house. We will be back for certain in the future!
