This is an extremely easy home to entertain children. You'll see why this is perhaps the most popular rental house on Captiva based on rental history. The house just had a new A/C system, all new flooring and interior paint in September 2021\. And December 2021 saw the installation of new energy-saving impact windows and full outside painting. Of course, recent hurricane recovery work has repeated some of that previous work. The Mermaid's private, secluded, 26 ft x 14 ft heated and newly resurfaced pool with paver stone deck is just off the double French doors of the living room. The Mermaid Home may be called a cottage, but this house is as well updated and perhaps better equipped than a new luxury home. Included is a 43' Smart HDTV, a 6-disc CD player with a large music selection, Bluetooth connection to our 100-watt Onkyo receiver with Bose inside speakers and outside pool speakers. Wireless Comcast cable Internet is in place. The primary bedroom has a King bed with 32" Smart HDTV and a new master bath with shower. The guest bedroom is twin equipped and has an HDTV with DVD. The living room provides a very comfortable Natuzzi Italian leather queen-size sleeper sofa, The new hallway bath services the guest room and living room guests. The kitchen is new and fully equipped with ice-making refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, Cuisinart drip coffee and Keurig machines, and all utensils. The adjacent open dining area has a table for 4 and stools at the kitchen bar for 2 more. A Weber gas grill is outside the kitchen and pool area, with a spare propane tank always available for heavy use. A new washer and dryer are provided in the adjacent laundry room. Included is a handy beach cart to haul all the beach chairs, umbrellas, cooler, beach toys, and beach towels to the beach The grounds are covered with many varieties of tropical flowering plants (though replanted and recovering from the storm), the beach is a short 2-4 -minute walk and the docks of the bay are even closer. Captiva's charming village center is a 5-minute walk from the house. Personally maintained by the owners, this home is one of the very few Captiva rental houses not managed by a management company. We personally supervise and assist our cleaning staff each Saturday. As the last to walk out the door prior to your arrival, we can assure you the Mermaid Home is one of the best-prepared homes on Captiva, both inside and outside. Though we give the personal attention of a private host, we perform as professionals. Larry Hahn Owner/Manager Please Note: We accept only Saturday to Saturday reservations, as is the standard on Captiva Island. We accept reservations no further than a year in advance, as current guests have the first option to reserve the same week the following year. If the guests do not re-book on their departure day, a new reservation request may be accepted. We also personally own and manage our larger Sun & Moon House, VRBO 202852, a Key West style multi-level home. You are assured of a perfectly prepared house, both inside and out, as we're the last to leave the house before you arrive. Make your reservation today before your desired week is taken. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach towels - Beach umbrellas ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Espresso maker - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Music library - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Garden - Gas grill ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washer/dryer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - In-room accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a village - Near an outlet shopping centre - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Heated pool - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,400 square feet ## Similar properties ![Living area](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/84000000/83290000/83283800/83283716/48936541.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sunset Captiva Bayside 103 Captiva - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Parking available 10 Exceptional 2 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-01&endDate=2026-01-02&selected=83283716&PinnedHotelID=83283716&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![2 bedrooms, desk, free WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/105000000/104110000/104101500/104101488/52064b04.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Stunning Views from a Stunning Condo Captiva - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-01&endDate=2026-01-02&selected=104101488&PinnedHotelID=104101488&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Condo, 2 Bedrooms | 2 bedrooms, free WiFi](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109030000/109020700/109020641/da194e8d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Sunset Captiva Bayside 204 2 Bedroom Condo Captiva - Washing machine - Free Wi-Fi - Barbecue grill [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-01&endDate=2026-01-02&selected=109020641&PinnedHotelID=109020641&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![TV, DVD player](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33940000/33933800/33933755/473d9419.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Plantation Beach Club in South Seas Resort Available Week 9 2020, Feb 28 - Mar 6 Gulf Shores - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-01-01&endDate=2026-01-02&selected=33933755&PinnedHotelID=33933755&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Contactless check-in and check-out are available ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Rules Saturday to Saturday rentals only, as is the norm on Captiva Island. ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Great location, bed was so comfy, place was immaculate, pool refreshing and clean, and the shed stocked with everything we needed poolside or at the beach. Short walk and we were at the beach every morning and evening. ##### Carol S.

Larry communicated very well what to expect, logistics, etc. The cottage was clean and inviting and ideal location. The pool was an added bonus. Everything was great… only thing that would have made it better was if we could have stayed longer. 😁 ##### Lisa A.

Even with wind, rain, and cool temperatures we managed to walk, shell, and swim. The house had all the 'things' we needed - beach towels, great music selection, sharp knives, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, trash bags. It was perfect for the four of us! ##### Constance T.

We loved this cottage, located in the heart of Captiva. This house was the perfect size for a family of five with three small children. We spent our day at the beach in the morning and afternoon, just a short walk down the road and to the right. In the afternoon, we had lunch and spent our time swimming. The owners are friendly and live nearby should an emergency or need arise - they are very friendly! We are counting down the days till our next trip! ##### John P.

Our family had a great stay at the Mermaid House over New Years! We visit Captiva annually and this was our first time back since hurricane Ian. The house, pool and grounds are in great shape and are just as depicted in the photos. It is a quick, easy walk over to the beach and the shed is filled with everything you will need for a perfect beach day. Larry was a great host. He went above and beyond by bringing us an item that was missing and communicated about a brief Wifi outage, even before we knew it wasn't working. We highly recommend this cozy Captiva home! ##### Allison L.

We have been coming to Sanibel/Captiva for 30+ years and have normally stayed on Sanibel. Due to Hurricane Ian, we stayed here and LOVED it. We wanted to come and support the businesses that were open - shopping and dining. The home is charming, cozy and spotlessly clean. While we did not cook, the home is equipped with everything needed to make a great meal. The decor is lovely. The pool/outdoor area was great. You could enjoy sitting in the sun if you wanted to get that suntan, or enjoy the screened in pool area which kept the sun to a minimum. The pool was a great temperature. This home was also great for my mom because she has some mobility issues and with only one small step up, it was easy for her to maneuver. Larry, the owner, was also a pleasure to deal with. Quick to respond to any questions you may have. We were fortunate enough to meet him on our last day. We will be back! ##### Kathleen H.

The location was perfect…a short walk to the beach and to restaurants and a small grocery store. The home is beautifully but simply decorated. Our bed was comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The salt water pool was pristine. We would stay here again. It would be nice if the 2nd bedroom had a king size bed for a 2nd couple. But that’s the only thing I would change. ##### Marcie C.

Larry is a very gracious host and we felt very welcomed. We enjoyed the pool so much and the few minutes walk to the fantastic beach makes this house a dream location. Our family of six (4 kids plus parents) loved every minute of our stay. It was a very relaxing week and we would love to stay again. Thank you so much Larry! ##### Mary R.

We stayed at the Mermaid House many years ago and were so glad to be able to come back this year. Everything has been kept up beautifully. The simplicity of the house with just the right amount of amenities (including plenty of fresh towels, the right amount of kitchen utensils, the comfortable beds, the nice sound system, etc) and the lovely clean very private pool provided a tremendously good place for rest and fun. The location is perfect and the host was wonderfully responsive. Can't wait to come back - thank you! ##### Helen M.

Our favorite thing was the pool right outside the living room door. We made use of the wagon to get to the beach. I did read in another post about the beach being a 2 minute walk, using the two paths you could try neither was that quick. We stayed for 2 weeks and loved it!!! Would definitely recommend! ##### Sherry M.

We have been visiting Sanibel & Captiva Island for many years & love it. This was by far the best trip yet! We have twin 5 year old daughters & a 6 year old son\~ the set up was absolutly perfect for swimming kids! Our kids were able to wake up early & get to swimming (usually by 8am!). We walked a short 4 min to the beach during the afternoon for some beach time, then back to the pool. It is in great walking distance to the "city" of Captiva. Many resturaunts, coffee places, shops, & ice cream just blocks away! We had an AMAZING trip\~ cannot wait to go back! ##### Katie W.

My sister and I enjoyed a week at the Mermaid House in April 2014 and we have nothing but great things to say about both the house and the owner. It is perfect for couples, small families, girl's week, or the elderly. From the moment we opened the squeaky front screen door onto the screened in front porch, we were in love with this property. The owner, who is local, provides all of the comforts of home, with the perfect atmosphere to just lay back and relax. He is available throughout the stay to answer any questions and to assist if issues arise. The screened-in heated mermaid pool, nestled among palm trees and tropical plants, is private and provided hours of quiet relaxation after spending the day at the beach. The beach is an easy two minute walk and a cart is provided to haul the owner-provided beach gear, umbrellas, and chairs. Besides enjoying the beach and lounging around the house and pool, we especially enjoyed a five-hour cruise to privately-owned Useppa Island where we lunched at the Collier Inn and walked along the pink pathways winding their way among the beautiful houses. The highlight of the cruise was seeing the dolphins race alongside the boat as we made our way to the island. Captiva Village is a short five-minute walk from the Mermaid House. Some of the restaurants we recommend are: Sunshine Seafood in Captiva Village (small venue but big on flavor), The Green Flash, just a two-minute walk from Mermaid House (our favorite), and Lazy Flamingo on Sanibel Island (the salmon and grouper were excellent). I highly recommend this property for a relaxing vacation on Captiva Island. We reserved our week for next year even before we finished our stay.
