Modern 2BR Retreat in Sunset Captiva – Steps to Beach & Village w/ King Bed

🌅 Where the Gulf meets the bay and every day feels like a gift — welcome to Sunset Captiva #22, a lovely single-family vacation home in Captiva Island's most cherished private community. 🌊 Situated in the unique beachfront-to-bay-front Sunset Captiva neighborhood, this charming home for 6 guests offers easy access to the community's heated pool, community tennis courts, community boat dock, and the Gulf of Mexico beach — all with the convenience of a walk-to-everything location near Captiva Village. ☀️

🏡 Sunset Captiva is Captiva Island's beloved private residential community — a collection of charming vacation homes along peaceful sandy lanes, shaded by tropical trees and insulated from the outside world. 🌴 The community stretches from the Gulf to the bay, meaning you're never far from beautiful water in either direction. Sunrises over the bay, sunsets over the Gulf, and a warm tropical breeze flowing through the community all day long — this is why guests return to Sunset Captiva year after year.

🌊 The Gulf of Mexico beach is the crown jewel of Sunset Captiva — a beautiful wide stretch of white sand, warm water, and legendary shelling. ☀️ The community boardwalk leads directly to the beach. The heated community pool is one of Captiva's largest, surrounded by a furnished sun patio, picnic area, and gas grills for outdoor cooking. Two community tennis courts and a community boat dock round out the exceptional amenity package.

🛏️ Two comfortable bedrooms — a king and a queen — plus a trundle bed in the loft accommodate up to 6 guests comfortably. The varied sleeping configurations suit couples, small families, or a group of friends equally well. 🌺 Community pool access, beach proximity, and Captiva Village's vibrant dining and shopping scene just a short stroll away give you the complete island experience.

🍳 A fully equipped kitchen with Keurig, full cookware, and all the essentials makes in-home cooking easy. Central A/C, linens, beach towels, washer/dryer, and WiFi are included. Beach towels, chairs and umbrellas are provided. 📶
Note: Sunset Captiva community rules apply — maximum 2 vehicles parked, no motorcycles or scooters, dock space arranged separately through the community.

A 5 minute walk to the white sands of Captiva and 5-10 minute walks to the Mucky Duck, great pizza and great Mexican fare. Convenient small grocery store is also a 5 minute stroll. We walked from our beach location towards South Seas location. Saw many osprey as well as some bald eagles.

Beautiful Sunset Captiva

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Things that were great about the rental property were the beach chairs and umbrella, cooking essentials and tableware, and comfortable beds/pillows. Things that would make the stay better would be comfortable seating on the lanai, two working fans on the lanai, lanai doors that sealed shut with a lock, blinds or window coverings in the living room area, updated living room area furniture with more seating, proper sliding door coverings in upstairs bedroom, new sliding glass door in upstairs bedroom, proper window coverings for sliding glass door in downstairs bedroom, keyless entry for door, and upstairs bathroom waste basket.

Wonderful House, Poor A/C

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love staying at this house, but we cannot go back. The A/C was so poor that the inside temps exceeded 90 degrees on three consecutive days. I emailed ARC and left a message on their phones, but they never responded. I did find Albert exceedingly courteous and reassuring, but the broken A/C inhibited is from relaxing for several days. We could not use the stove or be in house for most the afternoon and evenings.

Dirty!

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have rented in Sunset Captiva for over 35 years. My grandparents own a home there as well. There are many of us that rent here throughout the year. Usually rent from Royal Shell this year first year with American Realty. Upon our arrival the house was very dirty, and smelly. There were clumps of hair on the floor, floors clearly were not swept or mopped before our arrival. The comforters had stains on them, as did the master bedroom floor. I have pictures of all of this and happy to submit them. This house was filthy. Our trash was taken out. Toilets were still dirty, and dishes that were put away (like they were clean) still had food on them. I have pictures of this as well. In addition, the toilets did not fill and the air everyday would climb to 81 when set at 72 in the house. At night it would be back down to 71-72 but clearly could not keep up. Lastly, the roach black combat hotels were everywhere in the house are not working as we saw multiple roaches throughout our stay. Our last morning, at 8:15 my daughter was sleeping and was awaken by a man claiming to be housekeeping. He apologized bc he thought the house was empty and left. This obviously startled by daughter as check out was at 10! Unacceptable. I would like my deposit back @ the very least. Needless to say not sure I will not be staying in 22 again and not sure I will rent from American Realty if this is their standard. Disappointed.

Wonderful Stay!

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 property was perfect for a winter escape for our little family (parents, grandparents, 2 kids). The house was in good condition and most areas were nicely updated. The kitchen and island were so nice as was the large porch we could dine on! The management company was so helpful from the time we booked to a flawless check in to getting us an extra key ASAP when we needed it. Sunset Captiva is the perfect place for young kids, with easy access to the oool, beach, showers, grills, and tennis/pickleball courts. Great place! We hope to be back soon!

Comfortable beach house in a great community and great location

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: My family and I really enjoyed this Captiva home. The location is probably the number one positive, as it's walking distance to the neighborhood pool, the private walkway to the beach, and also the main commercial area of Captiva with restaurants and shops. Barely used our car all week!A/C worked very well to keep the home cool on hot summer days. Kitchen was well-stocked with everything you need. A bunch of beach gear (umbrellas/ tons of chairs) in the storage area underneath the home. All in all, great place for a quiet week at the beach with the fam!

Sunset Captiva 22

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at a few different properties in and out of Sunset Captiva for the past 5 years. We have stayed in this unit now twice. It suits our needs. It is always clean and close to the beach (where we spend the majority of our time). The staff at American realty are always helpful and professional. We would rent this property again.
