Rooftop sunsets, Gulf breezes, and pure Captiva Island magic — welcome to Sunset Captiva #18, a well-kept and wonderfully appointed two-bedroom, two-bath vacation home in the beloved Sunset Captiva community. ☀️ With a rooftop sundeck that serves up panoramic views of the surrounding tropical landscape and Gulf sky, a screened lanai perfect for outdoor dining, and easy access to the community's heated pool, tennis courts, and beach boardwalk, Sunset Captiva #18 is a hidden gem that guests love to return to.

The Sunset Captiva community is Captiva Island's most charming private neighborhood — sandy lanes, tropical foliage, a wonderful sense of community, and some of the best beach access on the island. Sunset Captiva #18 is tucked in close to the community's shared barbecue patio area, making group grilling and socializing easy and fun. A boardwalk and nature walk lead to the Gulf beach and the historic Chapel By The Sea. ️

The Sunset Captiva beach is a gem — wide white sand, warm Gulf water, and famously good shelling. The large heated community pool is one of Captiva's biggest, with a sunny patio, picnic tables, and gas grills. Two tennis courts and a boat dock round out the community amenities. ⚓

️ The primary suite upstairs features a king bed, two closets, a ceiling fan, a small TV, and sliding glass doors opening onto the rooftop-level sundeck — wake up, step outside, and greet the morning with Gulf breezes and tropical views. The en-suite bathroom has a walk-in shower. A pleasant loft adjacent to the primary suite has a queen pull-out sleep sofa and also opens to the sundeck.

The guest bedroom on the main level has two twin beds. The guest bathroom features a tub shower. The cathedral-ceiling living room has two sofas, a flat-screen TV, and a dining table that seats six. The screened lanai offers outdoor dining for four. ️ The kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances.

Sunset 18 Stay
The house was very nice. Any issues were addressed in a timely manner. It would be nice to have a bigger TV in the living room and a screen on the sliding door in the master bedroom. Overall the house is bright and cheerful.

We had a lovely time
We loved staying in the house. We loved its layout and that it is in close proximity to the beach, the pool, and to town. The owner and American Realty made the process easy. They were always accessible and answered our questions quickly. We appreciated that.

perfect 2 week rest
We enjoyed 2 beautiful weeks at this home..a 3 minute walk to the beach, and a 60 second walk to the pool. The home is well cared for, it was neat and clean. We didn't even rent a car, just a couple of bikes and we enjoyed a stroll every evening to dinner at one of the many restaurants close by.

Snow birds fly south
We have stayed in Sunset Captiva for many years. This was our first stay in this home. The new owners have done a nice job of updating this property. It is close to the well maintained pool area and of course the beach. We enjoy the many eating choices and the quiet and safe atmosphere.

A Fabulous Stay
We had a marvelous stay at Sunset Captiva #18. The house is beautiful and well appointed. We had lots of space and everything we needed. It was pleasant surprise to walk in the front door and find a bright and cheery atmosphere. We love the artwork and attention to detail. The walk to the beach was easy. The grounds were immaculate. We would definitely choose this house again. American Realty was very easy to work with!!

Jane’s comments
Some things need attention:
Ice maker stopped working for a couple of weeks then worked again
Front two stove burners did not always work
Light bulbs in kitchen fixture and upstairs bathroom need replacement
Under counter lights in kitchen need batteries

Good place
The house is in a good location with easy access to the beach and the main part of Captiva. The house was generally clean. The main issue was the dishwasher not working.

A pleasant stay
We have stayed in many houses in the Sunset Captiva complex, and this one did not disappoint. It was clean, roomy, well-stocked with necessities, and overall a very pleasant place to be. The hot water wasn't functioning when we arrived, but the problem was fixed after two service calls. Our only complaint was the annoyance of someone at the door arriving unannounced to service the air conditioner (we said "no,") and then another phone call from your office requesting that we let him in, which we also said "no" to. The air conditioning was fine, and we were on vacation and had had enough service people at the house already. It is our suggestion that you send service people when the house is unoccupied.

Nice house, awful electrics
The first three days of our stay were ruined by continued faulty electrics. All our frozen foods were thawed as the freezer did not work, the washer would not work,we had to keep the coffee maker on so the lights would work but, thank the lord,the a/c worked as it was on a different circuit from the 110v. items. A lack of personnel in your office on Sunday added to our woes.
On the positive side, once we got your attention the maintenance gentleman, Rod did all he could to remedy the situation and finally Lee County people fixed it late on Monday. You should organize some sort of oven gloves as the one provided was 6in.x3in. The front door dead bolt needs some attention as it is hard to operate.

Disappointing
This house was very disappointing and was not cleaned properly. The previous tenants wet towels were left on top of the washer for me to wash. Other towels were in the washer and dryer. The twin bedroom beds were not changed. The sheets were dirty. I found sheets in the closet and had to change the beds. There was a used bandaid left in the Master bedroom. The beach buggy had flat tires, and though I requested they be aired up, no one ever came by. The front and master decks are dangerous. The kitchen is not stocked properly, and we only had one dish towel. The refrigerator door baskets are broken and in usable. The TV in the family room
Is so tiny, you cannot even watch it. Most computer screens are larger. The downstairs bathroom shower is rusty. When I spoke with the rental management company, they offered us a $50 gift card to a restaurant.
