Island Oasis/Hidden Beach House-Pool in North Captiva Island

The village of Upper Captiva sits on the northern tip of North
Captiva Island, a secluded tropical island in Southwest Florida.
This bridgeless island is unique among the sandy coastal barrier
islands of Florida. North Captiva Island is surrounded by the warm
waters of the Gulf of Mexico and Pine Island Sound, about six miles
off the mainland of Florida. Boca Grande lies to the north and
Captiva and Sanibel lie to the south.
This tropical island is one pearl in the necklace of "outer islands"
embracing Pine Island Sound. Access is only by boat or private
airplane. No cars! No crowds! This has assured that the island
remains unspoiled and unhurried. Its sandy beaches are decorated
with an endless supply of driftwood and seashells surpassing that of
the legendary Sanibel/Captiva beaches. Upper Captiva is a truly
unique combination of comfort and luxury in an idyllic tropical
paradise.
This traditional, Florida-style island cottage was completed in 2001
and is situated less than 200 yards down a private path to the wide,
sugar, sand beach on the Gulf of Mexico. This is one of the few
newer island houses with only one elevated, single-level, floor plan
providing ease of access and family-friendly living. It is designed
to provide the utmost comfort while capturing the scenic beauty
around it.
Features include: Outdoor living environment includes a heated pool
with wraparound wooden deck, covered outdoor bar, pool table,
barbeque and eating area. The relaxing and stylish interior retreat
has a spacious private master suite with study/sitting area and
master bath, along with two additional bedrooms in a split floor
plan, and a second large bath. Sleeps six with one king, one queen,
and two twin beds. Baby crib and high chair are included. A
convenient utility room with washer and dryer adjoins the kitchen.
High ceilings and light "beach colors" enhance the feeling of open
spaces.
The entertainment area includes CD, DVD, and TV equipment, and a
collection of traditional board games. The house is centered around
a great room concept with windows and doors on all sides opening the
house to the outdoors. The kitchen is equipped with modern
appliances and flanked by glossy white cabinetry with Corian
counters. The dining area opens to the screened porch, kitchen and
living area. A bar divides the kitchen from the living area, and
there is additional seating for casual dining or sharing meal
preparation time. This house is fully furnished, including linens,
kitchenware, and all appliances.
This house has been designed with both indoor and outdoor dining
areas. Relax in the comfort of modern climate control or open the
windows for cross ventilation and natural ocean breezes. Tile floors
throughout the house give it a cool, casual ambiance. A screened
porch with a sunset view adjoins the great room and serves as a
convenient terrace for al fresco dining. Outdoor barbecue grill on
rear balcony overlooks the pool. Relax in a hammock or lounge around
the pool surrounded by palm trees and tropical vegetation.
It is a short walk or quick ride in the golf cart to reach the
pristine natural beach of North Captiva Island. We are located on Hidden Lane
in the popular close to everything  neighborhood of Jose' Hideaway.  The house is part of the beach lying on one of the highest coastal back dunes, about 200 steps from the windswept shore of the wide open fore dune environment. There are only four other homes scattered on the secondary dunes between you and the Gulf of Mexico. The shady bayside maritime forest and harborside facilities are equally convenient. The golf cart and bicycles are provided at no
extra cost for exploring the island. A variety of beach accessories
include beach chairs, beach towels, skimboards, kayaks and much
more. Transportation to the Island is available by water taxi/ferry
by fare. Boat rentals and fishing charters are also available nearby.
