Our family had a fantastic week on North Captiva. This large house was the perfect size for our 8 adults and 3 kids group. The 3 fridges came in very handy. The house comes with fun games and great views and is close to beaches on both the Gulf and the bay. We would rent this house again. Also, the property management team was very helpful and responsive.

We had an amazing stay at Serenity Now! The house was in great condition and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The location was perfect—just about a 5-minute golf cart ride to the beach, making it easy to enjoy the sand and water whenever we wanted.We loved everything about the property. It was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and it truly felt like a home away from home. Our family had a blast and made so many great memories during our stay.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Serenity Now to anyone looking for a wonderful beach getaway! Host was great at communicating!

The house and pool were amazing. Everything was clean and well stocked. Had enough refrigeration for all our needs. Our group of 5 kids and 7 adults fit well with extra space, everyone had their own area and bathroom. The kitchen has everything you would need for any type of meal along with some essential spices. There were pool toys to play with and beach chairs/toys to use too. Check in and check out was easy and we had help getting our luggage to and from the house. We would absolutely stay here again.

Fantastic stay

This property was the perfect choice for a large family vacation. The owner and property manager were great to work with and communication was excellent. Beautiful screened porches…countless hours enjoying sunrise rises over the water, watching the kids cool off in the pool, and getting wrecked by my nephew at table tennis.

A Perfect Break, Pure Serenity!

We had such a nice time visiting Serenity now, the house was the perfect size for our group of 12 (adults and children) and fit everyone well in the various sized rooms. The check-in and check-out process was super easy and the property managers did everything they could to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. The pool was great to have on-site and the location was great, would definitely stay here again.

Great for a family vacation!

Everything was as advertised. The screened pool and recreation area was perfect for our 5 grandkids to play. We were close to the beach. The owners were very kind and responsive throughout booking and leading up to the stay. The management company was also prompt and polite. It's a nice property that was clean and everything was in working order. It was a great week of vacation

Wonderful week!

Overall we had a wonderful week at this property! Tortuga property management was responsive to our needs and very helpful. We had guests from age 7-older adults and everyone was comfortable. We did not use the cabana room and all guests stayed in the main house. We look forward to visiting the island again (and hopefully a little warmer weather)!!

Wonderful Owners

We booked this home, and traveled to FL for our family vacation. Unfortunately hurricane Helene had made landfall just two days earlier - the home had sustained damage and we were not able to stay here or on North Captiva Island. We ended up staying on Pine Island, and enjoyed our time. Thankfully the owners were very kind and allowed us to move our booking to January of 2025, when we will once again be traveling to FL. We have stayed on the Island many times, and look forward to our stay at Serenity Now, in Jan.

Spring break 2024

This was part of our family's 2nd trip to North Captiva and the island provided the perfect vacation destination. The house had all the space we needed for our group of 14. The kids loved having the pool and the trek to the beach was short and easy. We saw lots of wildlife including dolphins on the beach everyday. Our only issue was that the water pump wasn't working when we arrived and it look a couple of days to get it resolved. Once that was on working order we were able to fully relax and enjoy the paradise that North Captiva has to offer.

We are so glad you had a great day on the island and enjoyed everything that Serenity Now has to offer. We apologize that it took some time for the licensed water technician to fix the issue. We were able to get the water going almost immediately with a temporary fix. The pump has since been replaced. Thank you for your review and come back again !

Vacation getaway

The service was great. If we needed something the property managers got it for us. If this is your first time know going in that the only way to get here is by ferry and they only run certain times of the day. So if flying into Fort Myers plan accordingly. There is no grocery store on island so everything is ordered online and brought over by ferry as well. That process is easy. Great for big groups and families.

Family Times

The island is magical. Our family discovered it back in 2012 and we just had to come back. We needed a bigger house due to our increased family members😁 This house has fantastic charm and was perfect for 11 adults 21+. It is ideally located, great sunrise views from the top level and the property management company was responsive and timely to all questions and requests. The pool & downstairs play area was perfect for games & conversation. The living floor was spacious enough to accommodate all of us… and the kitchen was well stocked - even with spices & such (much more so than other rentals I have had). We had access to kayaks and bikes through the club - thanks to the owner! We had an amazing time and would recommend this home to our friends!

Family vacation

It was a great space for our extended family vacation! We had 12 of us and there was the perfect amount of room for all of us! We had ages 6-70’s. Just a tip, if you have older people who have difficulty with steps, this might be challenging. Also, a heads up, the convenient store in the island had some necessities, but not a lot, so make sure you get your groceries before coming over. But we did visit the store daily for delicious ice cream and coffee!! The island currently has one restaurant open due to the hurricane. It is very good food, but make sure you have enough for meals at home too. We enjoyed the quiet island life away from the hustle and bustle. Prefect For a relaxing, fun, beautiful vacation.

This hoise delivers on everything.. the pool, pool toys, the house toys and puzzles, the musical instruments for kids. The well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms plus the kitchen had any and everything you could ask for. Yhe putdoor grill was great for cooking and not heating up the.home. The televisions allowed access to many apps. The big drawback was the air conditioning. The top floor (hottest) would shut diwn and make sleeping unbearable on that floor. Some mornings it would be 87 on that floor. Attempts were made but none were successful. Overall great memories were made and we all had a good time.

We had a great stay at Serenity Now. We had 8 adults and 5 kids and never felt cramped for space. The kids loved the triple layer bunk and trundle bed. It was nice that there are two other bedrooms on that floor with two bathrooms available. While we didn't use it much, the screened in deck/balconies were nice. We did use the screened in pool a ton and the games on the pool level were a nice addition too. The golf carts make it easy to get to the beaches and amenities on the island. The Island club pool access was great. We did not take advantage of the kayaks or bikes but certainly should have! The kitchen is well stocked with pans, cooking utensils, dishes and spices but could maybe use a few "kid" size plastic glasses. Access to the washer and dryer was appreciated as well. The only minor drawbacks were the poolside cabana room was a bit musty smelling so we did not use it and opted to use the loft bedroom. The loft bedroom is not for a light sleeper as the sound really does carry from the level below. The kitchen and living room being on the 3rd level was a little taxing for my knees but the rest of the party had no issues with the stairs. Stairs seem to be the norm for the island so that's not a negative, just a note for folks that might have an issue with stairs. All in all, it was a great week of fun and sun!

There were a few discrepancies during our stay that future guests should be aware of.The listing states there are four king bedrooms, one queen bedroom, and a bunk room. However, the room labeled as the “queen bedroom” actually has a full-size bed, which made a difference for our group’s sleeping arrangements.Also, one of the king bedrooms is on the ground level with its own entrance from outside the main house, accessed through a sliding glass door. Because of this setup, the door cannot be locked from outside when you leave, which may be a concern for some groups. Unfortunately, this room had a strong moldy smell and wasn’t usable for our entire stay. The property manager ran an ozone machine midway through the trip, which helped temporarily, but the room still couldn’t be used during that time due to the treatment, and the smell returned the next day.I understand that mold and mildew can be a challenge on the island, but it was pretty disappointing to realize we didn’t have enough beds for all our guests and that some people had to sleep on the couch.That said, the house itself was clean, well stocked, and we did enjoy our stay overall.If you’re booking this property expecting four usable king bedrooms, it’s worth noting that one of them may not be available depending on conditions.

Refreshing escape

The house is nice and the island as a whole is amazing. As of Nov 2023 the island is still undergoing significant repairs from the hurricane. No biggie, just wasn't communicated with us to the extent that it should have. Two sides of the house windows were covered with plastic when we arrived and weren't taken off until we requested being able to see out the windows - they were quick to respond and removed it the next morning. The screened in pool was torn all over the top. A couple doorknobs fell off from improper installation after what appeared to be painting, but I'm not certain. There was drywall dust under all the windows where they were recently replaced. I'd say they were small but significant issues that bothered a few of us. All of those things aside, we thoroughly enjoyed N. Captiva Island and despite the inconveniences would stay there again.
