Captiva Vacation Home ~ Captiva Breeze ~ has received some wonderful comments from guests who have stayed in our home.
6/2007 “…Captiva Breeze took our breath away! WOW! What a week in paradise. The house, pool, ocean, beach, fishing; we loved it all. It seemed we were wet all week and loved it! We saw such wonderful wildlife: manatees, dolphins, sea turtle, alligator and crabs. My husband and father found a great fishing hole and were entertained all week. I believe my father now holds the SNOOK record at the Bait Box Shop. All of the kids caught or at least hooked a SNOOK!! We hope to visit Captiva Breeze and your little piece of paradise soon. Thank you so much for everything!” E. & J. W., The S’s, The R’s, WV

4/2007 “ Mark and Toni, Your home was a perfect setting for our family reunion. We would have had a good time anywhere but so comfortable and relaxed here. All ages were positive about this house. Lots of walking, beaching, looking at sunsets, fishing, bringing in sharks, Matt even cleaned a shark and brought it home for dinner – someone else cooked it. Local restaurants were great -…..” L.H., FL.

11/2006 “…Loved every minute of our stay here…What a lovely house! It’s great to enjoy the beautiful island and then come home to relax in a gorgeous house. Everwhere we look is something to feast our eyes on. Thanks for your hospitality. We hope to be back again.” J. & R. C., & G. & C.A. C., PA & NJ
7/2006 “Your island hospitality certainly makes it difficult to return to Pittsburgh. Loved being in walking distance to the beach shops, restaurants and marina, but far enough for sense of privacy. House accommodations made us feel quite at home. Thought of the lounge chairs in late afternoon by the pool will get me through the winter. Thank you.” D. J. C., PA
7/22-29/06 “… I woke up this morning and for a very nice moment thought I was back in our bedroom at Captiva Breeze – then reality struck and I found myself in Pittsburgh! Perhaps next time we’ll aim for two weeks!
We absolutely loved Captiva and your home and it was a perfect location for walking to everything and truly getting into the “island” feel of things. I’ve already shared pictures of your home with friends and family and I hope it results in more rentals for you. I also researched several chat rooms that gave me great insight to Captiva and I’ll be sure to mention your home on them as well as they ask for feedback. We certainly hope to return to Captiva and Captiva Breeze too! I think I most miss the afternoons when the kids would play in the pool and my girlfriend and I would sit in the chairs by the pool and read our books. Sooooooo relaxing!
Thanks for being attentive in so many ways - from our conversations to the well-equipped kitchen, pool toys, beach chairs and just the island-feel of your home. ‘Loved it! We watched the video last night (as the kids had videotaped each floor right down to the wall art!) and I swear I could smell the salt in the air and hear the wind in the palms.
… Best: Décor, house layout (two master bedrooms and the rooms with twin beds allow two families to really enjoy the home; the front porch was great for early morning coffee!), amenities and the pool and hot tub of course! Two outside showers are nice and helpful when several kids are anxious to shower off and get into the pool! We enjoyed the ping-pong table too and had many fun tournaments.”
C.B., Pittsburgh, PA

3/11-18/06 “Thanks Mark and Toni forr creating such a wonderful place for our three family vacation! While travel with a 3.5 year old, a 2 year old, a 1.5 year old and a seven month old canot be described as ‘relaxing.’ Captiva Breeze’s awesome location, incredible pool and comforts of home certainly mad it easier. Your website doesn’t do this place justice!!!…”

8/13-20/05 "... just wanted to take the time and let you know how much we all enjoyed our first vacation in Captiva. What a beautiful place!!! We all agreed that your vacation home really made our vacation spectacular. We have two children a one year old and a two year old and our friends have a four year old. The kids truly enjoyed swimming in the pool with all of us. We couldn't get them out of the water. :) It was nice to come back from the beach shower off and jump into your refreshing pool. That was our afternoon ritual. We really made it a restful week - we walked to the local restaurants, went to Cabbage Key island, checked out some local shops and visited several beaches. Your roof deck truly lets you appreciate being alive. Witnessing the beautiful sunsets truly took our breath away. I will always remember them!! We truly fell in love with Captiva. Thank you for opening your house to us. We loved it and are currently talking about our plans for next year...."
