The place was immaculate and had everything we needed. Bikes were great to take into Capitva and the golf cart was so much fun. The best part was that we could fish out the back and a short walk to the beach at the front. Also highly recommend the free boat ride - Captain Bryan is a great tour guide. We will definitely return!
We visited Hakuna Matata June 21-28, 2025. There were 6 adults and 5 children in our party. The house was a perfect fit for our family. The location was ideal for us as we brought 2 flats boats and were able to secure them to the dock. The dock has power and water. We did tap in PVC poles to keep the boats off the dock during low tide. The family enjoyed the kayaks in Rooservelt Channel. The beach access is across the street and was a quick walk to the beach. If you need any beach supplies, they have them for you in the garage. The adults fished the beach at 6 am and caught some fantastic snook. We enjoyed the 6 seater golf cart to get to downtown Captiva. The kitchen has excellent supplies and appliances. We had a few issues with the house. I notified Jake and he was professional, appreciative and took care of them. I would return to this place again.
