I had a wonderful time. As hectic as my job can be it was a surprise how calming and relaxing this vacation turned out to be. We stayed at a private home on a secluded island for the price of a hotel room on a so-so beach.

The items I liked the best are.
1). Guest services, Monica nd the staff were helpful, friendly.
2). The home was clean.
3). Use of golf cart, bicycles, kayacks, community pool and tennis.
4). Hardly anyone around. Saw 3-5 people on beach over 3-4 hr. time frame.
5). Weather was in 80's most of the time.
6). Home was 2 bedroom, 2 bath, private pool, hotub, third floor observation deck.
7). Exploring the beaches and rest of island. It is easy for me to romantize living there.

Items I liked least.
1). Leaving !!!
2). TV was limited channels.

Keep in mind, this is a remote island. No paved roads, very little commercial. We brought all of our food with us. The water taxi could be expensive if you use it more than on arrival and departure. Two people were $74.00 round trip. Marina parking was $10.00 a day. But, with no going out to eat, I feel the prices were a bargin. I am still on my post trip high and plan on going back within the next 2 years.

“Oh What Fun”

We had such a great time at Key Lime Time, a 5 bedroom rental home. The home was well stocked with fun including a ping pong table, air hockey, some games, and the pool! We had 4 couples traveling together and the home offered enough space to let folks get away when we needed a little space.

The kitchen was large enough and had plenty of dishes and cooking utensils to make our stay very comfortable.

We were there at a very low season, had fantastic weather and were completely content to hang out, walk on the beach, play tennis, basketball, and swim.

On arrival, the home was very clean and inviting. The staff at the NCIC was very helpful and very friendly.

Everything was just as described and it fit our needs exceptionally well. We would definitely stay there again.

“Loved North Captiva Island Island Club Resort”

North Captiva Island Club Resort

Nov 11, 2008

We needed an amazing beach vacation to celebrate our special birthdays and also to get away from the hecticness of our lives. We knew we wanted a beach vacation so we started searching all over the web. The more we looked, the more we wanted space to unwind and to be right on the beach. That narrowed our search to beach homes. Then we came across the North Captiva Island Club Resort and knew we had found our place. It offered spectacular homes, incredible beaches, calm waters, wildlife, sunsets, kayaking, biking, and NO CARS.
Our expectations were very high and North Captiva Island Resort Club exceeded them. We first stayed in a house called Manatee Manor. It was steps from the beach, had an incredible view and the house had an excellent floorplan. The kitchen and bathrooms could have used some updating but were just fine for a beachhouse. Unfortunately, construction started up on Monday on both sides of the house. However, North Captiva Island Club Resort graciously fixed everything. They presented us with several comparable or better homes, took us around, and swiftly moved us into the house of our choice. This second house was Pete's Retreat.
While Pete's Retreat was a little farther from the beach, we still had a beachfront view and the house was phenomenal. It was brand new and had every upgraded amenity possible. All inconveniences were forgotten. The rest of our stay was exceptional: lots of fun playing on the beach and in the sea; long quiet bike rides; sightings of dolphins, turtles, and sting rays; a very enjoyable meal at the one restaurant on the island; and plenty of rest and relaxation.
We heartily recommend North Captiva Island Resort Club to anyone seeking a quiet, peaceful, restorative vacation. We look forward to going back annually.

Pinapple Palms #209
The Ridinger Family Surprise Birthday Weekend

WOW ~ What a surprise it turned out to be. I have never before booked anything sight unseen before other than a hotel room in a Ritz Carlton/Four Seasons.

I was so overly satisfied with everything from the beginning to the end. Bryan - you were so helpful on the phone and made me feel so sure that it would be a great place to bring our family. Fabulous people that made us feel so welcome. . . upon our arrival we met Monika and you can tell she loves her job. And then we had the opportunity to meet James at Mango's to have some lunch before we settled in and what a small world he is from Ohio too just like us. So we were able to talk about all our wonderful Ohio teams.

To celebrate my husband's birthday we had the pleasure of going to The Boat House for dinner and I will tell you this was like a 5 star prepared meal from the appetizers right down to the dessert. And again meeting Andrew our waiter - he was another one to love his job. The only downfall of the dinner was that he was a Pittsburgh Steelers Fan (just kidding Andrew - I told you my sister lives there and after moving to Florida we became better Steelers fans than Browns fans after our track record).

It was great to come to a place that everyone was so friendly and helpful. Captiva was a great adventure and we will definatley be back again very soon. The house was breathtaking and they didn't miss a thing inside. I felt so at home. I wish we would've had a little more sunshine but that gives us reason to come back again very soon.

Thanks for a GREAT vacation and making my husband birthday so special. It was a trip to remember! And it was great having our parents join in on the surprise all the way from Cleveland, Ohio. He was truly surprised.

I would be happy to recommend your company and your properties to anyone looking to spend a memorable vacation on your island.

This was out third stay on North Captiva in a year. We believe it is the BEST place to get awy from it all. All of the staff at The North Captiva Island Club are wonderful and very helpful. The houses we have stayed in are always immaculately clean and very comfortable. We walked the beach every morning and found lots of interesting shells. It is a great safe place to stay and we will definately return in the very near future.
