Birthday Reunion
Our family gathered to celebrate our son’s 40th birthday and could not have been more pleased! The house was clean and well stocked(kitchen, beach towels, pool). The layout is perfect for a large group, plenty of room to spread our. The pool was perfect and the beach only a few minutes walk away. The only issue was the golf cart, it was very sluggish and a second one was not any better. It was not a big enough issue to spoil the trip. Getting to and from the island can be a difficult process but will be much easier the next time! Highly recommend this property!!!

Not much worked!
We nicknamed North Captiva Island “slumlord island”. We had a golf cart with flat tires in the yard, the next one had no headlights (we had to use a flashlight), and the next one wouldn’t charge. Our pool was nice, the “pool kitchen” was a mess, door falling off the fridge and cabinets. The deck was horrible and we had a contest to see if ANYONE could walk down the stairs to the pool with out falling (2 of the steps are broken). Everything in the house is old and needs replacing, especially the second bedroom bed. For a place that brings in WAY over a quarter of a million $ a year, should be in better shape. Like we said——slumloard island. They get your money and couldn’t care less.

Perfect Vacay
This was our first time on North Captiva. We came to celebrate our parent’s 50th wedding anniversary. The planning ahead of time was stressful (ordering groceries, arranging ferry rides), but once we got to the island life was great!! If you are looking for a laid back, relaxing vacation, the island is the perfect spot! The house was perfect for 10 people! Some of the beds were horribly uncomfortable, but overall the house was good. The kids loved having the pool/spa right out the back door. The club pool/tennis courts were fun too! Our family has already decided that we want to go back.

Wouldn't return to Captiva Island
The arrival process was seamless and easy. You could tell that our rental was not maintained very well. Many things did not work including most of the locks on doors and windows. Worst of all the electricity went out on our second day there and never came back on. With no power, water or food due to not having electricity, we were forced to leave our vacation early. Lots of roaches inside home and so many bugs outside constantly bitting even with spray on.

Key Lime Covid Time
We had such a wonderful stay at Key Lime Time on North Captiva. The house was a perfect layout for 2 families with an additional room not even used. All of the stuff and everyone on the island was helpful and a joy to work with. Highly recommend having a boat to enjoy island hopping each day. Each day you were on a remote secluded beach --perfect during Covid19 and Social Distancing. We made so many memories and will be back to stay at Key Lime Time again.

Lots of room
Nice house. nice pool. kitchen is well stocked with dishes. Very close to the beach. The Grill is very nice, made some great steaks. Lots of hot water, good shower water pressure. No shuffleboard table, bit disappointing with that. Otherwise great stay.

Great location, awesome island, but the house is getting a bit rough
We had a great vacation, really enjoyed our first time on North Captiva. It was a little intimidating when we found out about the ferry access and needing to plan groceries and ferry times around airplane arrival and departures. But the time on the island was great. It would have been nice if the pool heater had been turned on a day earlier. The first day the water was too cold for our 2 yr old, she'd be shivering within 30 minutes. So we went to the beach more the first day. The rest of the time the pool was nice and warm. Overall the house was showing age. Loosely hanging light fixtures, piles of dust on fan blades, and no shuffleboard table shown in the pictures. The previous review for the kitchen comments were spot on. Trying to prep meals with the knives was like cutting with a butter knife. Either need new ones, or they need to be sent to a sharpener. The views are fantastic, but the roof doesn't seem super inviting with the anti-bird spikes on the railings. Also, for the size of place, and number of people, 2 carts should just be included, as opposed to having to rent a 2nd one for extra. 1 of our carts was pretty beat up too, and super slow. The house no longer has satellite tv, its all Roku and wifi. Having to guess to figure out the WIFI password was annoying, as was having to enter for free trials on the Roku app's. For the price you'd think the tv would just work when you showed up. It was also kind of annoying that 1 of the steps for the bunk beds was broken and missing, and hadn't been replaced yet. Our littlest couldn't climb it. With a little extra cleaning and upkeep, the place would be awesome.

Had a good time
The island was great fun to explore. Glad we had ample previsions since the island shut down for a storm. Great place to escape and just chill. The house itself was very well used/worn. The house needs a lot of attention. There were some mechanical issues with the house/pool but they came out right away to fix them.

Great Time!!!
House was very nice with a great view of the gulf. Only thing was that the roof top deck was not clean or inviting. Would have spent more time up there if we felt comfortable.

Beautiful house. Perfect Location.
We loved this house. This was our third time on the Island. The house is just a few steps from the beach. We think this is the best beach on the island. We’ve stayed at the North end (too windy) and the southern end (also a beautiful beach). We like this central location. This was also our first time staying in a home with a pool. We loved that. Didn’t ever go to the NCIC pools at all, like we did in previous years. We were at the beach early morning and in the evening and at the pool at Key Lime Time during the day. Half of the pool was shaded so the little kids didn’t have to reapply sunscreen as often. Pool was heated so we could keep it at the perfect temp. We ate lunches poolside. It was such a relaxing week. Even made a few scavenger hunts for the kids around the island. Only complaint, the kitchen isn’t set up for foodies. Knives are like butter knives, etc. If you cook, you may be a bit frustrated, but we improvised and made it work. We would definitely stay here again.

The house was beautiful, and the view was to die for. The pool and hot tub were both very relaxing, yet fun. The house was clean and decorated nicely and perfect for our vacation Would definitely rent this house again!
