About this property

Prime Spot on Pristine North Captiva Island. Private Elevated Pool & Deck!

Welcome to North Captiva Island! A short, ferry ride separates you from reality, for your tropical paradise vacation. As you approach the island by boat, the troubles and worries of the real world will fade away. Be on the lookout for tranquil manatees and playful dolphins that love to show off their aerial skills.
Roughly 25 minutes after leaving the mainland, you will step ashore at one of the two ferry docks on the island. A host from our new property management company will greet you at the dock and escort you, via golf cart, the very short distance to Paradise Palms. There are no paved roads, traffic lights or traffic jams on this island. A North Captiva traffic jam is three golf carts within 50 yards of each other. North Captiva is a barrier island with five miles of beautiful white sand beaches, no crowds, turtles, dolphins and manatees. The majority of the island is State Park which you can enjoy free of charge.
This custom, spacious home, built in 2015, is one of the few on the island that has a private pool located on the living level. You won't have to walk downstairs to enjoy the pool or cook on the grill. Simply walk out any of the 3 sliding glass doors from the kitchen, master suite or bedroom. The house has beautiful new furnishings and has been professionally decorated. The kitchen is fully stocked, complete with modern stainless steel appliances and a blender for your frozen drinks. The sky deck has 360 degree views of the Gulf of Mexico, Cayo Costa and Pine Island Sound.
North Captiva Island has so much to offer! Sip your coffee as you enjoy inspiring sunrises from the roof deck in one our Adirondack chairs. Walk across the road to the boat docks to search for manatees. Walk any of the five miles of beaches, looking for shells. Charter a boat with one of the many experienced Captains to experience world class fishing. Kayak, paddle-board or swim in the warm shallow waters that surround the island. Load up your golf cart and head to the pristine white sand beaches to spend the day. Walk into the park and find your own stretch of private beach with no one around. Head back to your private pool for a cocktail and grill up the catch of the day or walk the beach at sunset, then head to one of the four great restaurants on the island for dinner. Don't forget to catch the moon and stars from the sky deck before turning in.
There is plenty of room for all to gather in the open concept living area. The Master suite has a queen bed, attached bathroom, two dressers, a closet and a sliding glass door for pool deck access. Bedroom 2 has a queen bed, dresser, closet and also walks out to the pool deck. Bedroom 3 has a queen bed, dresser and closet. Bedroom 4 is a loft (with pocket door) that has a sleeper sofa and dresser.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Can I drive to the island?
No. Travel to the island is by ferry, small boat or small plane only. Most people take one of the two scheduled ferries to the island. We recommend Island Girl Charters because it docks closest to our house (about a 1000 ft). The website is www.islandgirlcharters.com
The North Captiva Island Club ferry docks about 3/4 of a mile from the house.
Their website is www.northcaptiva.com/daily-ferry-schedule.
If you are using your own boat you may park and launch from Pineland Marina and dock at Barnacles which is 2/10ths of a mile from our house. Please contact Mainstay/ Barnacles directly for pricing.

IS A GOLF CART INCLUDED?

WE PROVIDE ONE GOLF CART FREE OF CHARGE AND HAVE ANOTHER AVAILABLE TO RENT SEPARATELY. IT IS NEW AND CHEAPER TO RENT THAN OTHERS ON THE ISLAND. PLEASE INQUIRE AFTER YOU RECEIVE THE WELCOME PACKET.

Is there a grocery store on the island?
There is a small market that has some essentials, located near the club dock but we recommend that you either buy your own groceries for the week and transport them on the ferry or use the grocery buying service available through Shally's Seashells (This is our property manager and they well send you information after booking) or Elite Grocery Service, 239-634-0513.

Are there restaurants and bars on the island?
Yes. There are four: Barnacles Bar and Grill, Mangos Cafe and Grill, Over The Waterfront and the Boathouse. The last two require reservations during the busy season.

Are you part of the club? No we are not club members because we have our own private pool. You are still welcome at the club restaurants and you can rent bikes or kayaks from them or Boats and Fun.

Tampa (TPA) is about a 2 1/2 hour drive and Sarasota (SRQ) is about an hour and 40 minutes if you want to rent a car and drive down to Pine Island.

Great stay
This home is well positioned on the Island. We enjoyed the proximity to everything. It’s clean and the kitchen is well equipped. The beds were comfortable. But, if you’re a North Captiva regular, you know golf cart can make or break your stay. Their cart is top notch! Love that it’s up high and have big tires. We appreciated not having to worry about it. The island was a bit crowded and we didn’t have great weather. But the house was perfect. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Spring break family vacation
We loved Paradise Palms. The house was spacious and immaculate. The pool was so nice for our kids to gather around and relax and visit. We ran out of propane mid-grilling and a new tank was delivered within 10 minutes! It was a fantastic and memorable time for our family escaping the Minnesota winter weather! We will definitely return.

Great Place on North Captiva!
We had a great stay on North Captiva! We enjoyed the deck on the top of the house with Adirondack chairs and the Osprey nest nearby (with baby ospreys!). Great location, close to the beach and near to Mango's and when it reopens Barnacles Bar. Management company was responsive when we let them know the hose was leaking on the deck by the pool. Thanks for sharing your beach house with us!

Great place and great location.
Great place overall. Very good location overall. Lots of construction going on due to the rebuilding from the hurricane last year. So be aware of that. The place was clean and exactly as described. There were some minor issues, like the dishwasher not being attached to the wall and tipping over whenever we loaded it. But it still worked and not a big deal. We had a great relaxing vacation!
