15361 Captiva Drive Captiva, Florida 33924 United States

Rooms are large and bright, and some enjoy lovely views of the bay or the Gulf of Mexico. The home has a heated pool with a waterfall from the in-ground spa tub – all surrounded by a lovely sunny patio and made private with dense tropical landscaping.

The kitchen is “to die for,” as you might expect at “Almost Heaven.” It has just been further upgraded to sweet perfection, with additional lighting, a premium built-in microwave oven, new cabinet fronts, a slide-out trash receptacle, and more. The kitchen windows look down on the pool patio below, as seen in the photos.

Almost Heaven is unusual for its extensive and smart deployment of state-of-the-art technology. Of course, the house has an unlimited telephone (USA) and wireless internet connectivity throughout the house. But the fun really begins with the entertainment systems.

But it gets even better with multimedia! An X-box gaming system is installed with a large HDTV in the great room. Bring your favorite games and your own controllers. Movies, HD sports, big high-def TVs, and Blu-Ray. Even the bunk room has an enormous HDTV.

The primary suite at Almost Heaven is its own grand oasis of luxury. Slumber in spacious comfort in the premium king-size bed, or read-in bed propped against the bolster and throw pillows to the light of large lamps and recessed ceiling fixtures. A large, private balcony faces west (sunny in the afternoon) and looks down the short driveway to the Gulf of Mexico beach.

The primary bath includes an ample jet tub under the bright window (facing a tall privacy hedge of palms and other tropical landscaping). An oversized walk-in shower features a unique center-pivoting glass door and offers two spray systems (including a handheld massage wand). Plenty of storage is provided in the extended vanity (with two sink bowls), and there is a separate, well-lit make-up area with cushioned seating.

Four other bedrooms provide spacious sleeping quarters for guests at Almost Heaven. In the southeast corner is the king suite on the main level. The king has a private en-suite bathroom.

In the northeast corner of the upper level is the queen bedroom. The queen bedroom shares a large Jack-and-Jill bathroom with another bedroom with a new king bed on the upper level.

Also in the northeast corner is the bunk room on the main level. This cute room sleeps six with enough room for play, and it has a very large HDTV. It has an entrance into the main-level guest bathroom, which can also be accessed from the hallway.

All of the Almost Heaven bedrooms are spacious and airy, with high ceilings and deluxe furnishings, large closets, chests of drawers, and all kinds of quality lighting.

    We've stayed at Almost Heaven many times over the past decade and it never disappoints. The home, pool, and hot tub were clean and well maintained, and the property is exactly as described. We love how close it is to the beach and Green Flash! The putting green and cornhole boards were awesome bonuses! American Realty was pleasant and very helpful as always. Thank you for letting us stay and we look forward to visiting again!

    Marlene W from Bradenton, Florida recommends this vacation rental

    The home was located in a great spot, near The Green Flash. Access to the beach was very good; we walked down the long driveway, crossed Captiva Dr (which did not have heavy traffic), and we were on the beach! The home was very nice and met our needs for space. We enjoyed the ping pong table in the garage. There was plenty equipment for the beach -- 8 or 10 beach chairs in very good condition, 2 beach wagons, lots of beach towels, and a cooler. As we were packing up to leave, we found a Pack-N-Play. It would have been nice to know that it was there. The kitchen had adequate supplies, as did bathrooms. Want to note that Albert was very helpful when we called him with questions.

    Josh P from Saint Peters, Missouri recommends this vacation rental

    My family has stayed at this house 5 times for the simple reason that it has beautiful views of the ocean and easy access. The house is comfortable and has wonderful amenities as far as a beach house goes. Every time we’re there it’s relaxing and easy to enjoy. Plenty of room for my family and would recommend to anyone looking to see the island for the first time. Property management is on point with any issues and takes care of guests if there’s any issues. Couldn’t be happier with my stay each time I’ve been there. We love Almost Heaven.

    Our family, age 9 months - 84 years had a fabulous time at Almost Heaven. The GM from American Realty group of Captiva did a phenomenal job getting everything ready for us. We've been to the island annually for 30 years and yes.. this year is devastating due to the hurricane damage. We still enjoyed it & will be back next year!

    We can recommend Almost Heaven in every way. The house is beautifully located, was totally clean and also the service worked out well. There was always someone available. We were there just before the hurricane Ian and we felt very well taken care of. Unfortunately, we had to leave the island early because of the hurricane. We deeply regret that the island was so affected. We hope that the whole team is doing well and that no one was harmed. We also very much hope that no major damage was done to the house. Thanks again!

    a guest from Purcellville, VA recommends this vacation rental

    Captiva Island is a Paradise and Almost Heaven was a perfect vacation spot on the island. The house was stocked with all amenities including a sharp knife (this is important when cooking), ample pots and pans and cooking utensils, two coffee makes including a k-cup and a 12 cup pot, clean beach towels, beach chairs, a beach cart, even jewelry trays by the bedside. The house is decorated nicely and was clean. It’s important to know you have to cross a two lane road to get to the beach—it’s the only road on the island and not a lot of traffic so an easy cross but important for family with little children. The beach in front of the house is spectacular and almost private because there are only a few houses and no condos —we experienced manatees swimming close enough we could reach out and touch them (they won’t hurt you but don’t touch them). We stayed in July and the back yard was overrun with misquotes and no-see-ums so we did not get to use the backyard oasis. I would have loved to as there was a grill, large table, clean pool and beautiful landscape. We did experience a plumbing back up during our stay which also prevented us from using the outdoor shower, however, management responded promptly and resolved the issue with professionalism — it was the 4th of July weekend and they made the repair happen despite the holiday!

    I would 100% recommend the property but I wouldn’t go in July—it was too buggy to enjoy the night.

    It is well equipped with everything we needed. The proximity to the beach is wonderful and many happy hours were spent in the pool and spa.

    The house and location were perfect and we were completely satisfied until the parade of repair and maintenance men started. We had 5 to fix air conditioner, remotes etc
    Then the worst were the tree trimmers blocking the driveway with loud machines. Don't want to complain but all of this made our vao a bit less wonderful. Alan and American Realty were always available and ready to assist

    It was a really enjoyable experience. Only issues with the property was the beds where all extremely hard. One even had a plastic wrap around it which made it sleep hot. The house stereo system should be explained as to how to us it. Out side of that it is in great location and very nice. Will be staying there again next year.

    So close to the beach and practically had the beach to ourselves most days. Half mile walk to shops and restaurants. The minor inconveniences included slow drains in the bathroom, outlets by vanities not working, dryer took forever to dry laundry, and we wished there was more beach accessories...one beach chair and six adults.

    a guest from St. Louis, MO recommends this vacation rental

    I would give this experience a B. The location was good, but the house did not live up to our expectations. For the price we paid, it should have been more up to date and cleaner. The furniture in the living area was filthy and very uncomfortable. The ice maker was not reliable and the dishwasher was missing most of the prongs, which made it very hard to use. A lot of the mattresses were squeaky and not very comfortable. We were not able to use the sound system, left a message with the realty company for help with it, but got no response. If the furniture was updated, house gone through and fixed the little things it would be great (broken blinds, drainspouts missing, doors hard to lock/unlock...). Great location.

    a guest from Frisco, CO recommends this vacation rental

    Our three-generation family stayed at Almost Heaven during President's Week 2020. The kids were ages 3-8 and had a great time at the beautiful pool and the beach across the street. Lots of shells to bring home.
    The layout of the house offered lots of room and privacy. We called management to fix the pool lights and the house music system. The response was quick and we enjoyed the improvements.
    Recommendations to make it better:
    -Paper products that were supplied were stingy for this high level of property.
    -The AC in the two bedrooms on the first floor was not working well.
    -The dishwasher is ready for a replacement.
