Captiva Beach

We were only on property for 10 minutes before agreeing that we needed to come back every year. It is a little piece of paradise. We used all the things, from lawn chairs to shuffle boards, paddle boards, bikes, and pool. It is a short drive to restaurants and stores, but the kitchenette was perfect for cooking a quick meal. The rooms are spacious and comfortable.

+: Room was nice. Great view. Enjoyed sitting out on the enclosed lanai in the mornings and evenings. Quiet (other than the cleaning people speaking quite loudly outside our door one afternoon). Convenient to attractions and area restaurants. -: Way too expensive. Restaurant prices were ridiculously high (although the food and service were good). Ditto pool bar. There were no wash clothes in our room. We had to wait until the next morning to get some, and then they were cosmetic wash clothes (black) which continually ran black dye. Ugh. Apparently you had to pay to rent beach chairs/umbrella at $40 a day. Seems overkill. We didn't bother to do this.
