Coconut Castaway - Ocean Views, Walk to Beach, Golf Cart, Club Amenities

Welcome to Coconut Castaway, our vacation beach home on North Captiva Island! North Captiva Island is only accessible by ferry, or water taxi, and is the ideal location for those wanting to get away from it all. In just a couple of minutes you'll walk from Coconut Castaway's front door to the beautiful beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Pristine turquoise waters, sandy white beaches, and captivating sunsets will be a daily delight, along with enjoying all of the amazing wildlife the island has to offer.

This 1,600+ sq. ft. beach stilt home has a desirable upside down floor plan. The 1st floor has a king master bedroom, bathroom en-suite, and a private lanai. The 2nd room has two twin beds, and the 3rd & 4th bedrooms each have queen beds. All bedrooms have Smart flat screen TVs with Roku. All bedroom lamps have USB plugs to easily charge your devices at night. You will also find a full guest bathroom and washer/dryer closet. On the 2nd floor you'll find the kitchen, living area, dining area and 3/4 bathroom. The 4-panel sliding glass doors open completely into a large lanai providing panoramic views, including ocean views. If you're looking for a full 360 degree view of the island, just take the staircase up to the spacious crow's nest where you'll find beach loungers waiting for you to sit back, relax and soak in the sun. On the ground level you'll find a Weber grill and sitting area.

The home sits on the road just south of the grass air strip, known as Salty Approach, which means you'll likely be able to enjoy watching a private plane or helicopter take-off or land during the day. There is a public beach on the west side of the air strip, and a great sunrise/dolphin viewing beach area is on the east side.
