North Captiva Point House - Boat/Water Taxi Only **NEWLY RENOVATED **

****This property can only be accessed by boat or water taxi.****

The North Captiva Point House was built by Barnacle Phil and his wife Roberta Kinsey, in 1981. A true classic Florida beach house, it features great room with full kitchen, separate 'bunk house' and wide porches on all sides. Standing on a private peninsula at the entrance to Safety Harbor, every direction offers a spectacular view of the harbor, Pine Island Sound, Captiva Pass and beyond. Views to the east offer the rising sun or moon in breathtaking vistas. White sandy beaches skirt the buttonwoood and sea grape grove that surrounds the house. A private, protected deep water dock provides boats a safe berth. Outstanding fishing, birding and swimming are a given. In the still of the night, dolphin can be heard 'breathing' as they round the point in search of mullet, snapper and other food.

There simply is nothing else like it.

This property can only be accessed by boat or water taxi. The property does not come with a golf cart.

Best place to stay on Charlotte Harbor
This place is just awesome. The dock is perfect. It’s nicely decorated. It’s well equipped & has everything you need. I over packed. You don’t need to bring much!

Private Point
Our stay with family here was wonderful. The home is beautifully decorated and extremely well equipped. The 360 degree water views were amazing, the beach was huge and private. Our boys loved the “separate” bunk/kids house and my husband greatly appreciated the deep water dock for the boat. We will definitely be back.

Despite the devastation from the hurricane the house was in order. Fully stocked. Clean. Secluded with dolphins and manatees right out the window. Can’t wait to return!

This is our absolute favorite trip yearly! From before renovations to now. You get NO better views than this house. Ashton is a absolute dream to work with and you feel like you’ve got your own tiny piece of home while staying. Fishing is great, house is amazing. Nothing more you can ask for!!

Great service- thank you.
We had booked this property for 5 days in March, 2017. We had a family illness/death and had to cancel our reservation within a few weeks of our planned arrival. Rebecca was very accommodating and gave us a generous refund under the circumstances.

Amazing Property!!!
I'm in love with this property!!! The views in every direction are beautiful. I loved the wrap around porches. The house itself could use some updates but I would stay here again and again even with out the updates. The beds in the main house were soft & comfy. We stayed for a few days with our 3 young kids & our lab and my oldest said this was her all time favorite vacay she's ever been on. (She's been on alot of vacations). Amanda was the lady that checked us in, and she was super friendly and laid back. Thanks for an amazing vacation, can't wait to come back!

Great Location
The property has wonderful views from the wrap around deck and having a dock for our boat was definitely a plus. I would say that not having an actual bedroom and somewhere to hang your clothes was a little inconvenient. Just know that this property does not offer a golf cart and the rentals were too pricey. I didn't notice that when I booked it. Other than that we had a good time.

Idyllic Location!
Beautiful location, beautiful island! Had a great experience, owner's uncle met us upon arrival to make sure we were all set! Owner was very poor at answering my questions and communicating leading up to trip so I was a little nervous upon arrival, but everything worked out great! It should also be noted that this isn't really two bedrooms, it has two beds in the livingroom area and then a second bedroom that is completely unattached to main building. We were travelling with small children, so I think it's important to know what to expect as far as sleeping arrangements. Worked out fine for us though. Would definitely come again!!

Most unique and amazing experience
This home is without a doubt the most unique place my family has ever vacationed in. A boat is a must!! It was well worth the extra effort to bring our boat down. We were surrounded by water and beautiful views no matter where we looked. I told my friends we rented our own island!! It is easy to stay secluded or go exploring by land or sea to find a fun little restaurant or a hidden ice cream shop to surprise the kids with. My kids and husband loved the fishing and I got to enjoy some quiet time on that wonderful deck/porch. This home gives you a feeling of what old Florida was like... I really loved it and we cannot wait to go back!!

AMAZING!!!!
Amazing is not even a big enough word to describe the experience we had at the Point House on North Captiva. Breathtaking, relaxing, wonderful, simply put . . . perfect. There was a hurricane looming in the distance but we decided to chance it and hope for the best. We talked to Rebecca and she was amazing to work with and ready to be accommodating at every turn of events. Not only can I not say enough about this property but I can’t say enough kind words about her!!! Our vacation was more than we could have ever expected and our children loved every moment. We absolutely can’t wait to go back!!! Highly, highly recommend this experience to anyone!!! If I could have given everything 20 stars I absolutely would have because 5 just isn’t enough! Thank you Rebecca for everything you did to make our vacation so wonderful and for all of your help in the midst of a possible hurricane. I can say without a doubt you are truly an awesome person! Best place we’ve ever vacationed by far!!!

So relaxing!
Thank you for sharing your property with us! We had magnificent views—- including a full double rainbow 😍 the space was comfortable and clean and perfect for a long weekend getaway. We were able to easily access our boat to spend time on Cayo costa, lunch on cabbage key and a dip in the pool at the N. Captiva club. We didn’t need to use the bunk house, but would be perfect if we brought the kids! Thank you!!

The Point House exceeded our expectations in all ways. It was spotless, great kitchen, fabulous beds and pillows. But the deck was the best! To be surrounded by water was a dream, watching the boats go by was fun… but the best part was seeing and hearing the dolphins!!! I cannot wait to get back!

Beautiful and relaxing. The lock box to get the key was impossible to open. Tons of boat traffic
Fun nice, the remodel is great. You should inform people that it is so close to the harbor boat traffic. Some of the boats blast very loud music and they pass 20 feet from the house.

Paradise found!
OMG, this place is a dream come true. Every glance at every angle offers a panoramic view of dolphins and manatees frolicking in their natural habitat. It’s like living in a Natural Geographic documentary in a wonderfully appointed beach cottage. We booked our next vacation at this gem before we even left our first trip…. I almost don’t want to brag any more about this place so it doesn’t sell out…. Enjoy the island and don’t forget to reserve a golf cart with Sun and Fun!

Solitude
If you're looking for panoramic views, and an absolutely fabulous fishing scenario...book it! 4 grown men, 150+ lbs of food, drink, and fishing gear made for one spectacular week. Grouper/Snook/Sheepshead were abound and they local wildlife enjoyed us, as much as we did them. If taking family or and friends, be sure it's a close knit bunch. One bathroom is challenging for more than 4 or 5, but it's a minor inconvenience. Great spot and the renovations were well received. Very likely to go again. Don't go to N Captiva looking for nightlife. Go for relaxation!!!
