We found the property to fit our needs of 8 adults and 1 child under 2 just fine - 4 separate families, so the many different sleeping arrangements fit just great. We loved the big screened porch facing the Roosevelt Channel, the wonderful big kitchen table that fit us all for meals and evening games; the close proximity to the beach by beach wagon filled with beach chairs and kid toys. The living room was good for evenings of chatting; we didn't turn on one tv the entire 2 weeks. Grocery convenience store was right down the road for quick last-minute pick ups- otherwise, the bigger grocery stores on Sanibel weren't too far away. There are several restaurants close by the property, but we opted for lunches out and cooking dinners in, so don't have alot of food reviews to offer. We did like Doc Ford's , key lime pie at Keylime Bistro, cakes from the Bubble Room. My only complaints would be the property advertised bikes to use, but both bikes were inoperable (flat tires, no seats); and we stayed for two weeks but the complimentary welcome kits only gave us 2 packets of dishwasher soap, 3 garbage bags,, 1 packet of laundry soap ( we brought laundry soap, knowing we had a toddler). I would suggest perhaps more supplies for those staying for more than one week, considering the price of the property. We loved our stay here on Captiva Island - a great family time!
