Spacious 5BR Captiva Retreat with Private Pool, Spa & Game Room
Sunny Days is a truly incredible vacation home in the heart of Captiva Village, yet close to the beach. Though recently built, it has been further upgraded to be exactly perfect. The house sports the “old Florida” style, yet offers smart, modern design and conveniences. And you’ll really appreciate this ideal location: just leave the cars and stroll short distances to everything including shops, restaurants, activities, and of course the beach. The Sunny Days elevator provides easy access from the ground level (with garage) to the main level.
The backyard is a peaceful retreat day or night and is unlike any in Captiva’s village. It features a private heated pool plus an in-ground spa tub, all surrounded by an elegantly furnished sun deck. The spa has a waterfall into the pool; it bubbles and gets warmer (not “hot”) than the pool water when controls are set to spa mode. The serene tropical garden is beautifully illuminated at night and has a delightful path winding through the exotic foliage and flowers.
Porches and Decks. There are many porches and decks at Sunny Days. The first you’ll notice upon entering the property is the grand front porch, which spans the entire width of the house. Traditional high-back rocking chairs invite relaxation, while the tropical plantings in the front yard offer some privacy and the impression of a faraway tropical paradise.
The screened lanai in the back adjoins the dining area on the main level and overlooks the private pool and garden. It is roofed in case of a tropical shower and has a broad staircase down to the pool patio. It is accessed through double French doors from the kitchen and dining area. There is a separate set of French doors leading from the primary suite.
If it’s hot, you may prefer the sun patio at the pool – jump in the refreshing water to cool off! This area is also elegantly furnished. And if the sunshine is too much you can seek shade under the giant fronds of the surrounding tropical garden.

We had such a great time staying at Sunny Days! We've stayed there in the past and the house was just like we remembered it. There was plenty of room for the whole family to be together and plenty of places to do other things too - ping pong, foosball, air hockey, swim in pool or just an extra couch to take a nap on ;) Captiva looks great - most of the places seem up and running again, with a few exceptions. We missed the Bubble Room, but were able to get some Bubble Room cake at Boop's, which was nice. Thanks for such a great stay!

Stayed with a group of friends. Location is perfect. House is a little dated. Hot tub was not working and it took all week for an actual pool person to come look at it which was kind of annoying as it is cooler at night and we wanted to use it.

Our family had a wonderful week staying in Sunny Days. Our trip was postponed twice due to hurricanes, so we were very excited to finally get to go. The house was better than we imagined. It was clean, spacious and lovely. Everyone enjoyed the pool and short walk to the beach. Nearby restaurants were excellent and shops were fun to browse. There were a couple issues when we first got to the house which were immediately taken care of by management company staff. They were also very helpful and responsive during rebooking after the hurricanes. Our group age range was grandparents to toddlers, everyone had awonderful time and looks forward to returning.

Thanks to the relentless efforts of Lisa Wheeler, we were able to salvage our 2022 vacation and re-visit Captiva in 2023. When the travel insurance failed to cover Ian’s impact to our vacation, Lisa never gave up on us and provided a great place for us this year and when mobility issues presented a challenge, Lisa found a place with an elevator. All told, this great vacation would not have happened for our family this year had it not been for the extra effort by Lisa Wheeler and her staff. Thank You all!

I don't know how I could begin to describe how perfect this house was for us and our family! We came to celebrate our anniversary and Lisa was the perfect contact for us! This home had the space we needed for each one of us! The pool was well tended to. The property was the perfect distance to the beach and to the cruise boat pier! We had a marvelous time! We can't wait to return!

This year we added another couple to our trip. Sunny Days did not disappoint. The house was perfect and we used every amenity! The keurig was a lifesaver, the location was great and we really appreciated all the beach toys left behind.
This property was perfect for my family's long weekend visit. It's super close to the beach, restaurants, and more. We saw countless dolphins, manatees, and other wildlife as well as daily sunrises and sunsets. I didn't use my car the entire trip! The home is bright and beautiful, perfect for large groups as everyone has their own bathroom. The pool and hottub are perfect after a long day at the beach, and the front porch is amazing for listening to live music at Key Lime bistro.We did encounter a few issues on the first day. One being the master shower handle was a bit stripped making it really hard to get going (it just needed to be manhandled but we were being cautious) as well as our spa not heating up. However, the property management company was quick to send out a team to fix the spa and we had it heated within 5 hours. Nothing's worse than having to waste time during your vacation so I appreciate the quick fix!We hope to come back next year as Captiva is the perfect place for us to relax and hang as a family.

Sunny Days is a wonderful home that will accommodate your party of 10 nicely w/out tripping over one another. The house was clean and linens were plentiful. The kitchen could use some help. For a party of 10, we do a lot of cooking, there are some basics the house is lacking-casserole dishes and larger sized pots & pans, so I expect that will be corrected. However, if you stay on Andy Rosse, you were probably planning on walking to lunch and dinner anyway. Some great restaurants are just out the front door. Kudos to American Realty: we had an issue with the septic tank and Albert himself came by to check it out and within two hours we had a company there pumping out our tank, now that is responsive service!!

Our family of 7 enjoyed every moment at Sunny Days. The home is very spacious and everyone has their own bed/bath! We loved the screened porch for relaxing in the evening. The pool area was amazing and the pool was always cleaned each morning. It was a three minute walk to the beach and the home was well stocked with beach chairs and a wagon. We also walked to restaurants and the general store. Overall a fantastic stay!
