About this property

A Shore Thing 4 Bedroom / 3 Bath House

A Shore Thing is only 400 feet from the Captiva Island beach. Located at the corner of Gore Lane and Wiles Drive, this quiet home is still near the Captiva Village, with easy walking convenience to shops and restaurants.

The beach is a really easy walk along a delightful path. The property has a beautiful and private backyard, with nice landscaping front and back. The heated swimming pool is surrounded by a roomy, furnished sun patio and enclosed by a privacy wall and dense tropical plantings.

Adding 4th bedroom and great room being expansion!

A great deal

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a week at A Shore Thing and enjoyed it very much. The house was clean, well furnished and private. The only negative was that the two queen beds were quite squeaky and turning over at night would make enough noise to awaken a light sleeper. Its nearness to the beach was a real plus. The grill needed a good wire brush that wasn't available but it was still usable. The pool was used many times a day, even in cool weather. The pool rake had a hole in it that made getting leaves out of the water a small problem. We hope to return again next year.

Sun, sun, sun

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I want to give a bad report so no one else will rent it so we can rent it for longer periods. :>))After renting in Captiva for over 20 years, this has become our favorite spot because of its location close to everything, a sunny pool area, beautiful yard, and no stairs. It is not ritzy, just very comfortable. Management was quick to respond to service requests. the only negative is the squeaky kids in pools nearby houses.

Our Favorite Place on Captiva!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a very well maintained ranch home in THE best neighborhood on Captiva Island. The entire back yard is enclosed in a true garden wall. The pool, patio and lovely lawn are completely private. On the few days we were there that the beach was a tad windy, this enclosed back yard blocked the wind and was a wonderful option to have. Beautiful home and lawn but the best thing about this place is the location. Truly steps from the beach access. Can’t say enough!

Reviewer Comments: Sunniest pool area of any place we've stayed in the last 20 years on Captiva.....great location, friendly owner (texting), landscaping beautiful and well maintained, pool temp 88, ample kitchen stuff, lots of beach items. Quirks...electric switches may not be where you'd expect (same disposal...low light levels. Would rent every year if possible.

Tripping the Light Fandango

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: After 20+ years renting on Captiva, we finally found a ranch with a sunny pool. Stayed five weeks. Nice management peoples, ditto the owner via texting. Problem we had was tripping over sunken rooms and sidewalks......many near misses on falls. Also pool didn't have a rail on its steps. We'd rent again but would have 911 standing by. :>))

My Happy Place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is the best setup for our family especially the private backyard & pool. The location is great as it is a stone's throw from entrance to beach, walking distance to village and the Chapel. The only thing I would suggest is upgrading the furniture especially beds as they appear to be old and extremely soft mattresses.
