Item Description

Enjoy an incredible week-long getaway for 12 at a brand-new home in North Captiva, FL - The Maine Deck! The first-floor features four spacious bedrooms - 2 kings with ensuite baths, and a bunk room that sleeps six with a half bath. A fourth bed (queen) and bath are located on the second floor. From the second floor enjoy views of the gulf while cooking in a gourmet kitchen. You can dine-in at the oversized kitchen counter or in the full-size dining room. If fresh air is what you desire, you can enjoy the full-length screened porch for dining or simply relax while watching the sunset. For the real views, check out the bonus room on the third floor, complete with wet bar and bath, as well as two decks facing east and west. Enjoy the sunrise with your coffee in the morning, and the sunset with your cocktail in the evening. Quite possibly the best set-up on the island. Over 800 feet of deck space makes the house feel bigger than its 3,000 square feet of air-conditioned living.

But the real fun is on the ground level! A brand-new bar area under the house that seats 8 with a flat screen TV, refrigerator, and sinkonly steps away from the oversized heated pool. Also, a large outdoor shower! Enjoy games of ping pong, ladder golf, corn hole or just sit back and read a book from the home library. When you venture out to explore the island, you have access to 2 golf carts that come with the Maine Deck. In addition, the home offers private access to a beach along with a fat-tired wagon to transport supplies. You can go to the pool at the North Captiva Island Club, use the kayaks and paddle boards, or walk the nature preserve and see manatees, bald eagles and osprey, or your friendly neighborhood Gopher Tortoise.

A remote location, North Captiva Island is accessible only by ferry or private boat. You will be met at North Captiva docks by the property management crew, who will provide white glove service by handling and transporting all your bags, while you are taken on a brief tour of the island before getting checked in. The nearest airport is Fort Myers, FL.
