Underwhelming for the price
We had several broken appliances in the home. Including our coffee pot, something so simple wouldn’t normally be a big deal, but we were promised a replacement and never received one. The ice maker didn’t work & neither did the fridge water, again we were promised a fix but one never showed up. The managers ordered their own food during my grocery delivery, the grocery delivery is VERY expensive and they helped themselves to my delivery & avoided paying their own fees, the managers son forgot to remove the groceries from my order and so I had to hold their sushi in my fridge I thought that was distasteful. I’m pretty sure the female manager was drunk the day we arrived with a drink in her hand. As we were unloading from such a long trip she was bombarding us with property information while our luggage was being thrown as fast as possible into the house, piled on the floor. The day of our check out the gentleman who is the woman’s son was very rude. It was very rushed and very chaotic. It was also pouring rain, as other managers had their guests luggage under tarps, ours let ours get soaked. Throughout the stay the pool was never clear until I went down myself to the harbor and asked for it to be cleaned. Our trash was full of the last families trash & was never picked up until the middle of the week of our stay, again after I complained to the office. Rancid trash filled our driveway after the raccoons got into it because it was too full to close. I picked up maggots.

This was a nice property and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. You have many sections of beach to visit, nice to see the wildlife again, and the house had pretty much everything we needed.

Spring break 2024
This was part of our family's 2nd trip to North Captiva and the island provided the perfect vacation destination. The house had all the space we needed for our group of 14. The kids loved having the pool and the trek to the beach was short and easy. We saw lots of wildlife including dolphins on the beach everyday. Our only issue was that the water pump wasn't working when we arrived and it look a couple of days to get it resolved. Once that was on working order we were able to fully relax and enjoy the paradise that North Captiva has to offer.

Serenity Now-Terrific!
This is, I believe, our fifth visit to North Captiva Island. It is a very special place indeed-if you have not been there before, make sure you understand with NCI is about and what makes it such a unique Florida destination. We have stayed in a different homes each time depending on our family number on that particular stay. This is a terrific place to stay. The home was exactly as portrayed on the VRBO site. It was spotless on our arrival and there is an abundance of everything you might need from kitchen items, games, beach stuff, linens, and much more. As we learned previously, bring twice the food and half the clothes and you will hit it about right with what you need to supply. The home is exceptionally spacious, well lit, and has a lot of great features in terms of the layout. It gives everyone a lot of space, with a perfect location on the island and it is set in a beautiful spot with fabulous views. Tortuga Properties does the day to day management and this was a real plus-they provided all the details well before arrival to get us ready, greatly facilitated our arrival-meeting the ferry in a driving rainstorm-checked in often, and were exceptionally responsive to my inquiries during the stay. The text messaging feature is critical as the cell signal is variable over the island. This will be a great home for family vacations-nothing is lacking. Highest recommendation-Enjoy!

Wonderful week!
Overall we had a wonderful week at this property! Tortuga property management was responsive to our needs and very helpful. We had guests from age 7-older adults and everyone was comfortable. We did not use the cabana room and all guests stayed in the main house. We look forward to visiting the island again (and hopefully a little warmer weather)!!

Refreshing escape
The house is nice and the island as a whole is amazing. As of Nov 2023 the island is still undergoing significant repairs from the hurricane. No biggie, just wasn't communicated with us to the extent that it should have. Two sides of the house windows were covered with plastic when we arrived and weren't taken off until we requested being able to see out the windows - they were quick to respond and removed it the next morning. The screened in pool was torn all over the top. A couple doorknobs fell off from improper installation after what appeared to be painting, but I'm not certain. There was drywall dust under all the windows where they were recently replaced. I'd say they were small but significant issues that bothered a few of us. All of those things aside, we thoroughly enjoyed N. Captiva Island and despite the inconveniences would stay there again.

The house was well equipped with everything you could possibly need. It was very close the the Beach & Gulf. The little ones really loved the pool. It was also close to the gift shops, restaurants, and kayaking. We were 14 people ranging in age from 8 to 80 and everyone had a great time.
