Feb 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tropical escape from the winter North Captiva is a tropical island unlike any place I have traveled previously. Our trip was a timely escape from the Northeast winter. I had many questions prior to travelling which were promptly answered by the owner. From the Ft Meyers airport, we got an airport taxi (1 hour) to Pine Island, Island Girl Ferry, and after a 30-minute ferry ride, we landed on the island. We walked a few steps from the ferry dock, met the friendly property manager Jenny, who greeted us at the dock. We checked in to our modern and airy 3-bedroom townhouse overlooking the harbor after Jenny gave us a tour of the island and was available during our trip. The view from the townhouse deck was a tranquil seen of the harbor, hibiscus flowering along with tropical palm trees and mangroves. The Safety Harbor townhouse included a nice swimming pool and tennis courts. We walked to beaches and also rented a golf cart which residents use in lieu of cars on the island. We rented kayaks, walked the pristine beaches with velvet sand that were nearly void of other people. Make sure you buy enough groceries to bring on the ferry (during the airport ferry ride) as there are no chain stores or grocery stores on the island. There are 3 restaurants, 1 is a few steps from the townhouse, if groceries dwindle down! We had a very relaxing trip - thank you! ##### Ruth P.

The island is in the process of repair. Many homes are damaged and there is so much work to be done. BUT our place was great, there is some clean up needed, but nothing that impeded our fun. The beaches are beautiful, the water warm and the drinks hit the spot. The house was spacious for three adults and convienient for everything. ##### Sabra H.
