About this property

Casita Salida del Sol-North Captiva Island Waterfront townhouse w/dockage

Welcome to "Casita Salida del Sol", your private sanctuary nestled on the pristine shores of North Captiva Island, Florida. This charming 3 story, 3 bedroom, 2 bath casita offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort and seclusion making it an ideal escape.

Imagine escaping the hustle & bustle of every day life on a island with no cars & uncrowded, unspoiled, white sand beaches— being able to just slow down & relax. Ride around on the golf cart to see the most amazing sunrises & sunsets all from the island. North Captiva is 1/2 mile wide, making it perfect to watch both sunrises and sunsets. We provide a golf cart, 2 beach cruisers, 2 kayaks and a paddleboard for your outdoor activities. Enjoy the 3 on island restaurants or prepare & cook your meals in our fully furnished kitchen. You can have your morning coffee while enjoying the sunrise from the upper screened in deck overlooking the harbor. Jump on the beach cruisers or hike thru the 700 acre state wildlife preserve or watch the manatees & dolphins play in the water by the airstrip. Rent a boat from Boats & Fun to Island hop over to Cabbage Key for lunch, shell at Sanibel, exploring Cayo Costa or head over to the sand bar on Boca Grande. North Captiva even has its own 1/2 mile long sand bar. If boating isn't your thing, hang out on the 5 miles of pristine sandy beaches or the heated pool at Safety Harbor Club. Unlike more well known beach destinations, the lack of crowds won't leave you scrambling for a prime beach spot. Our island townhome is a part of the Safety Harbor Club, so take advantage of all of their amenities. These include tennis & pickleball, a clubhouse with a great selection of books & movies to borrow during your stay. As well as private beach access, gazebo for gatherings and an ice machine.

ISLAND LIFE MADE EASY! From Ft. Myers Airport, Pine Island Limo & Taxi service is available to take you to Pineland Marina where you will catch the Island Girl water taxi to the island. We are not accessible by car, only by boat or small aircraft. There are a number of grocery shopping services that will shop, package and deliver your groceries to Island Girl Charter per your request, just in time for the 20 minute water taxi ride to North Captiva. Once you arrive on the island, Jenny will meet you at the ferry dock to help unload your luggage & take you on a tour of the property and the island. She will also be your point of contact for anything needed during your stay.

Casita Salida del Sol amenities include:
Wifi, propane grill & utensils, 1 golf cart, 2 kayaks, 2 beach cruiser bikes, paddleboard, tennis rackets, pickleball paddles, beach chairs, sand toys, board games, movies and much more. (An additional golf cart is available for daily rental if needed)

Fully stocked kitchen includes: coffee maker, Keurig, toaster, microwave, blender, crockpot, pots/pans, dishes, utensils & much more.

PLEASE NOTE: There is a $25/day "resort/temp membership" fee charged by Safety Harbor Association and is reflected in your cost of your stay as "property fee". You will receive a temporary membership card for the duration of your stay that you should keep with you while on the island.

If you are coming by private boat, you may use any of the Safety Harbor Club(SHC) docks. There is a $25/day dock fee charged by SHC HOA and is NOT reflected in your cost of your stay and must be paid separately at the time of booking. You MUST display the dock pass on your boat or risk having it towed.

An Amazing Stay
This townhouse was clean and had everything we could have expected and more. So close to the dock, unloading and loading was a breeze. Jenny was great, met us upon arrival and gave us a tour of the island and amenities. Also met us on checkout day to help load for the ferry. The included golf carts were perfect for getting around the island quickly. We would definitely stay here again. 10 STARS

Beautiful home
We had a wonderful time here. We brought our fishing boat so having the dock right there was awesome. The house had everything we needed. Kitchen was stocked with pots, pans, bowls, & cooking utensils. We had brought our own spices, but we didn’t even use them. Great supply of spices & seasonings. The bedrooms were beautiful and spacious. The whole house was beautifully decorated. Communication was amazing! The owner and manager were both so nice and easy to talk to. I accidentally left a couple books on the nightstand and the manager mailed them to me. 😀We loved this home and we will definitely come back.

FANTASTIC CONDO/WONDERFUL LOCATION
What's not to like about North Captiva! Things to consider: location, water access, how the house is stocked, price. We loved staying in this condo, it had everything that we needed. The view from Safety Harbor has more of an island feel than some of the other properties. Having access to a boat slip is a plus, played a factor in our decision. Jenny (property mgr) was awesome, she was in constant communication w us & met us at the island loading dock. They helped us unload and haul of stuff from the boat to the condo. We had a wonderful stay!!! Recommendations to the owner: replace upstairs ceiling fan (loud/squeaky), improve internet. We had rain on Sat and couldn't get out on the water as much as we'd like. Guys were disappointed, hard to find college football on TV due to options.

This is the second time we have stayed - and it was great and the staff were above and beyond supportive and attentive. The location is overlooking the harbor and the included golf cart makes all amenities within a 5 minute drive. For my money it can't be beat.

A perfect getaway
We had a perfect getaway to North Captiva Island! This was our families first trip to the island and we were a little anxious about the logistics. Julie and Jenny eased our mind right away. The townhouse was adorable. Absolutely loved the decor - it felt like home for a week. Location is perfect. Steps away from the harbor and ferry drop off and less than 5 minute golf cart ride to the beach. The property manager Julie was amazing. She handled all the check in and check out and getting our stuff from the ferry to the house and she gave us a short little tour of the island when we arrived. We had brought our boat and my husband had issues with it when going across and she and Gage helped get him and our son over to the island. We were so appreciative! The sunsets on the island are breathtaking! Every night was slightly different. We even took a sunset swim one night. Julie had so many amenities that we didn't have to worry about bringing as we would for a normal beach trip which worked perfectly for our group. The trip was perfect family trip to celebrate a couple of our recent high school graduates.

Girls Trip in paradise
We absolutely loved our stay in North Captiva at this property! Jenny, the property manager was very informative, helpful, and very quick to respond. She was a pleasure to meet! Julie, the owner, went above and beyond by giving us a call to give us a heads up with a little construction going on during our stay. The place was perfect for our girls trip. My only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! We can’t wait to visit again!

Amazing experience!
I cannot say enough good about our experience on N. Captiva and in this property. From the very beginning upon booking up until our trip I was able to communicate directly with the owner regarding questions about the island and home. It was our first time in N Captiva and the logistics were new to me. Julie told me everything I needed to know to have a seamless trip to and from the island. Jenny, our property manager, went out of her way to accommodate us with last minute changes to our arrival and even received groceries on our behalf a day early and put them away for us. She answered all of our questions throughout our stay and made sure we had everything we needed. The house had everything we needed to enjoy the beach and pool. cannot recommend this property enough. N Captiva is a truly special place and my family can’t wait to return annually for years to come.

Great stay at a very nice place
We enjoyed staying in this town home. The property manager Jenny was awesome and very helpful. Was willing to take texts with various questions and even brought some tennis balls over when we could find only one. The property was as described and very clean on arrival. Minor cosmetic issues but overall its condition was a 4.5 or 5. I gave an overall of 4 because we were told on arrival to not put the thermostat below 70 or the lines would freeze up. I don't blame the manager for this because I'm sure she was simply repeating what the owners told her. However, I would say that if you cannot put the thermostat below 70, the freon is most likely low and the unit should be serviced. Until it is serviced there should be a disclosure in the description of the unit in case you like to sleep in cooler temps (like we do). Not a huge deal for our stay because it was cool at night but would have liked to see this disclosure in case it was warmer. Otherwise, excellent stay at a very nice, conveniently located property. Great property manager! Golf cart was a major plus!

Amazing Week!
I highly recommend this condo/townhouse! My family and I are on the plane home and already missing North Captiva. The condo/townhouse was clean, homey and perfectly accommodating. It was exactly what my family was looking for when I began our search. Julie, the owner, was so easy to work with and we will definitely be back to North Captiva and rent from her again. Jenny, who works for the property management company, met us at dock, helped us with our luggage, and made sure we were comfortable upon our arrival. The best experience.

Perfect getaway for many families
We came with five other families for a week. 4 of the six stayed in safety harbor condos, 2 had homes. Everything is walkable but golf cart was key. There was space to have most of the group over outside for cocktails then go to beach for sunset. Ordered groceries from Debbie, island fish one night and ate at Barnacles another night. Hosted a potluck dinner. Morning coffee on porch with a harbor view. Kitchen/bath stocked with essentials. It was like I had everything I needed if it was my own home. Used kayaks and paddle board every day. Rented a boat for 2 days. Would highly recommend staying here. Thank you Julie for letting us enjoy your home!

About the host

Hosted by Shelly Waters

Host profile image
Our family lives full time in Oklahoma. We have 3 kids (2 are married), 2 grandbabies and have traveled all over the country for their sporting events. We love traveling, especially to the beach & anywhere warm and sunny!

Why they chose this property

We visited North Captiva Island one time and that's all it took to fall in love with the beautiful scenery, amazing beaches and nature preserve! We were hooked the minute we stepped off of the ferry onto the island. We look forward to sharing our island escape with others so they can experience this tropical getaway!

What makes this property unique

Casita Salida del Sol is a pristine condo overlooking the Harbor & ferry dock. The sunrise from the upstairs lanai is truly breathtaking. Jump on the golf cart and you are on the white sand beaches in a matter of minutes. No scrambling for the best beach spot, unlike other well known Florida beaches. Our condo is a fully furnished property with lots of extras such as 2 golf carts, kayaks, paddleboard and bicycles.
