Experience the Captiva Island life on the Gulf of Mexico
with the Mermaid Home, a classic cottage style home with
your own private, secluded pool. Miles of white sugar sand
beach are just a two minute walk away.
Captiva is a most pleasant 50 minute drive
from Ft. Myers International Airport. The Ft. Myers area
is known for the warmest winter temperatures of the country.
Recently renovated and furnished, it’s
more than a vacation rental; it’s our personal Florida
home. The house carries the Mermaid theme throughout.
The new kitchen is fully equipped to satisfy
the family with children or the entertaining of adults.
A dining room with a kitchen bar area, or the umbrella table
at the pool provide a choice for dining. A Weber gas grill
on the pool deck is great for grilling local fish.
The living room has a queen sleeper and an
entertainment center with cable TV/VCR and a Onkyo stereo
system with 6-disc CD changer and Infinity speakers. Two
double French doors open dramatically to the screened, heated
and underwater lighted, 26 foot long pool. No stairs are
required as this cottage is ground level.
The master bedroom has a king size bed, cable
remote Sony TV and a new master bath with a sunken dual
head shower area big enough for the enjoyment of two. Sliding
glass doors open to a furnished screened porch that leads
to the pool.
The second bedroom has twin beds and a cable
remote Sony TV. It’s ideal for another couple, the
children and maybe even a nanny. The second bath has a fantastic,
new Italian tile and glass block walk-in shower. All linens
are provided.
The entire property and pool area is surrounded by colorful
and lush tropical foliage, such as Coconut Palm trees, flowering
Hibiscus, Frangi-Pani, Periwinkle and Bouganvillea. The
gorgeous Gulf beach and famous Gulf sunsets are a two minute
walk, and the sunrise at the docks on the bay is even closer.
Extra amenities include central air conditioning,
ceiling fans throughout, laundry room, beach towels and
chairs,and 7-speed men’s and ladies' bicycles. Rental
children’s bikes can be delivered to your door. A
fax machine and a portable phone with answering machine
are included if you must be in touch.
