Everything was as advertised. John is an excellent host. We really enjoyed our time in Captiva Island. Apartment was clean and beach was indeed steps away. Restaurants near by within walking distance. Don't forget your bug spray!!! Lots of bugs on the island at sunrise and sunset. Beautiful islands. Great vacation place.
This was my second time at this property with my dog and I am so glad to have it available again after the storms. This place is perfect for me. I love being able to walk to nearby marinas, restaurants, stores, and of course the beach. John is a great host. I will be back!
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Chapin House in Captiva, and I cannot recommend it highly enough! The host ( John ) was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making our check-in process seamless and our stay exceptionally comfortable. The cozy two-bedroom apartment was perfect for our family, with plenty of space and all the necessary amenities. The price was very affordable, especially considering its prime location—just less than a block from the beach. Each day, we enjoyed being so close to the beautiful shoreline without breaking the bank.Our experience was nothing short of wonderful, and I’m already looking forward to planning our next vacation here. If you're seeking a charming getaway with a fantastic host, Chapin House is definitely the place to stay!
Another amazing stay here! The location is the best ever, close to everything, especially the beautiful beach! Highly recommend staying here on Captiva. We can't wait to stay again!
The apartment is perfect for a short beach stay. It was very clean and well kept and just a short walk to the beach. The mattress was very firm, but we seemed to have adjusted and slept well. John was a wonderful host.
We were so very happy with this clean, quiet place. Couldn’t ask for a better location, everything on Captiva within walking distance. So much wildlife so close, and the beach was so peaceful and pristine. Thanks for such a great stay!
Everything was great. I never saw or spoke with the host. Location was great but a very small space to park. A better description of what was included with the rental. For instance paper supplies. We bought everything and got there and had everything already furnished so we left all we bought.
John was great and understanding. We needed Wi-Fi but the post Ian hurricane status was making that
Overall great stay and location. Post Ian Wi-Fi issues was a problem but John was great to us and provided updates.
We had a great trip and we will be back.
We needed additional space for our large family vacation. Our son was very happy to stay in this peaceful, comfortable 2-bedroom apartment just steps from the beach.
Great location for a fair price! The home was clean, comfortable and looks just like it does in the pictures. It is located on a quiet street that is close to just about everything on Captiva Island. The owner was quick to respond to any questions. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning!
I can’t say enough about the location of this property! It is very close to the beach and very close to town as well as The Green Flash and Jensens‘s if you plan on doing any fishing charters. John, the owner, is super nice and made us feel welcome. I will definitely be going back!
This 2 bedroom apartment has all the comforts of home and is just steps away from the beach. Its location is close to the island store, great restaurants and check in was so easy. It was our pleasure to meet John (the owner) and we would definitely stay here again. We had a wonderful week on Captiva!
Great location on Captiva with minutes walk to the beach and Mucky Duck and the Bubbleroom. Great communication with the property manager. Will stay here again in the future
We enjoyed our stay at the Chapin Lane apartment. It was perfect for the 2 of us and within walking distance to many attractions. Short walk to the beach, although the weather didn’t cooperate for the majority of the week.
Excellent location- walk to everything less than 10 minutes. Beach only a couple of minutes- as close as you can get without being beachfront. Very quiet! No complaints- would book again.
My beloved and I are repeaters. The location is perfect, short walks to the gulf/intercoastal waters. John is always a gracious host. You can’t beat this Captiva location that is affordable and where you can bring your dog.
