Description

Stella Maris

Positioned just off the coast of Southwest Florida, accessible only by ferry, boat, or private plane, North Captiva Island promises travelers a uniquely tranquil and secluded setting. Flanked by the calm, warm waters of Pine Island Sound and the Gulf of Mexico, this blissfully remote barrier island offers long stretches of pure sandy beaches, some of the finest fishing in Florida, and just enough amenities to feel like a bona fide resort destination.

Steps away from the Gulf with the most private beachfront lot on the island, this three-bedroom, four-bathroom home is the ultimate paradise. With a primary focus on providing exceptional exposures to the sea, this marvelous beach house is sited with multiple waterfront balconies, including a sky deck offering 360-degree views of the Gulf's glistening waters, creating spectacular privacy without any homes interrupting the vistas. Take in panoramic views of the sunrise from the rooftop and watch the sunset from the luxury of your jacuzzi.

Jaw-dropping views get more spectacular each level up, and the interior is top shelf throughout. A beautiful chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counters abuts the open living room, which has stylish soft seating and a large flat-screen TV mounted above the fireplace—perfect for a cozy afternoon. Sliding doors open to reveal an expansive screened-in porch where guests can relax in the shade or dine alfresco without the worry of bugs.

With three roomy bedrooms, Stella Maris is the perfect vacation nest for families, couples, or close groups of friends. The master bedroom, which sports a king bed and a great window-facing desk, is positioned to enjoy delightful views of the sea. Its ensuite bathroom is spacious and offers his & her sinks, ample cabinet space, and an enormous double shower. The second bedroom is also on this level and features two twin beds.

Follow the spiral staircase upstairs to find the third bedroom with a queen bed, plus an incredible den that feels like an apartment within itself. The den includes a fold-out sleeper sofa, wet bar, flat-screen TV, and a desk with spectacular views for those that need to work while they're here. An open lounge area adjoins the den and upstairs bedroom and invites everyone to kick back and unwind on soft seating while savoring unobstructed views of the scenic Gulf.

At Stella Maris, you're a mere 50 steps to the beach via a private pathway. So dip your toes in the sand and work on your tan! For those who prefer to be up and about, try your hand at shelling. North Captiva is known for having the best shelling in the U.S., and this way, you'll have a small memento to remind you of a great vacation. You'll also have a six-seater golf cart at your disposal ($250 per week) to take you to the nearby private Safety Harbor Club offering a community swimming pool and tennis, plus dockage for a daily fee.

Steps from private Beach and amazing Sunset views on the Gulf of Mexico!

We just returned from a fabulous week at Stella Maris on North Captiva Island and are still reveling in the incredible experience we all had...it was beyond all expectation! Our Host Joe could not have been more friendly, responsive and accommodating. The house is as beautiful as the photos, but the location and views are over the top amazing. The house has multiple levels with large decks and lounge areas for relaxing with family and friends, overlooking the Gulf with warm breezes and a cool cocktail...what could be better! The island has such lush greenery, uncrowded beaches and a very casual and friendly vibe. The ferry ride over is very easy and the staff literally load and unload all your stuff. Once on the island, zero cars...just golf carts, bicycles or flip flops to get around as needed. As a part of the rental, we had access to private clubs that offered nice swimming pools, tennis courts and marina. The house is well equipped with high end appliances and BBQ grill for great group dinners. There are ample beach chairs and toys provided for relaxing on the soft white sand in what felt like our own private beach. If you like long walks on the beach, this island adds the adventure of discovering many beautiful shells. Frankly, we never left the property other than one day when we rented a boat and cruised around Pine Island Bay visiting adjacent islands for sightseeing and lunch. No one in our group were into fishing but from conversations we had with other folks on the island who do, it is a fisherman's paradise from both land and sea. It was a totally chill experience, and we cannot thank Joe and Third Home enough for allowing us the opportunity to stay in this fantastic home!”
