Just back from a great weekend at Captiva. We booked the house for a 50th birthday for my husband, and it did not disappoint. We had 12 people ranging in age from 17 to 50ish, and there was something for everyone. The house is huge, so there is plenty of space for everyone. From the time we booked Carmel and Dean were on hand from start to finish, even ringing on the morning to tell us the house would be ready early because we had said we were going to leave early to beat the traffic. Carmel booked a table for us in the village for our breakfast on Saturday and had the dining table in the house laid out for us to use. There is everything in the house that you need. Unfortunately, we didn't get to use the outside area. A couple of the lads got in the hot tub. The rest of us weren't so brave. Hopefully, we get to go down again in warmer weather and use the outside space. Thanks, Carmel and Dean, for giving us a weekend to remember. We look forward to getting back down again.

Just back from a wonderful few days in Captiva, Carmel and Dean were so helpful with all our questions and requests. The house is amazing with lots to do, we enjoyed a few games of pool in the bar/ cinema room and watched the football on the big screen.
Everything we could have needed was supplied in the house including a big larder fully stocked with all the essentials. All the bedrooms were huge, clean and very comfortable.
the outside had lots to keep you occupied inc hot tub, tennis court and a lovely outdoor bar area with stove and tv. Wifi was great and they had all the apps you could need preloaded inc Netflix, amazon prime and all the sports channels. I cant wait to rebook for a warmer time of year to really get the use of the amazing outdoor space. thanks Carmel and Dean.

Dean and Carmel were such welcoming hosts. The house was pristine when we got there and had everything we were looking for and more. We spent the weekend there with grandparents, 2 couples and 6 kids ranging in age from 9 to 16 and there was something for everyone. The cinema and games rooms were incredible and the outdoor space is great with tennis court, trampolines and hot tub. We would highly recommend this house and look forward to returning there again soon.

Thanks folks for sharing your wonderful home - absolutely fab! We all enjoyed the short stay - kids had plenty to do and adults took full advantage of the many facilities in the house and surrounding amenities. Cheers Dom

We had a fantastic family staycation at Captiva! Dean and Carmel were the perfect hosts, maintaining contact with me from the minute I booked right up to when we arrived, ensuring everything was exactly as we needed it and giving us a full tour and plenty of guidance as to how to enjoy the house to its full potential. The house is ideal for a group getaway, so spacious, spotlessly clean, well equipped, loads for the kids to do and explore, and a fantastic outdoor area too. The adults also had a blast in the den! I would highly recommend! Can't wait to come back again next year.

Absolutely amazing property. There is so much to do inside and outside. Close to the beach , village, and all amenities. The hosts were so warm, helpful, and accommodating to my parents. We have booked again for summer.

Super space for a large extended family getaway. We found this a great alternative to booking a hotel as it gave us space to spend time with the family during the day/night. The adults and older children enjoyed games of pool and darts while the younger children had a great time in the games room which was full of toys.

Lovely house. Perfect for a big family getaway with kids. Playroom and pool table for older kids. Lovely large space to relax and entertain. 5 mins from a lovely beach and village with plenty of shops and take aways. House has everything you need. Will hopefully return in the future for another lovely weekend.

Fab house, we had a ball over the Halloween weekend, the owners decorated the house for us also, so kind. House has everything a family could want. Beaches near by, enough to keep the kids entertained on site for rainy days. Highly recommended 👌 The owners are so lovely and always on hand for any questions. We felt very at home. Most definitely will return in the future.

We booked the house for a weekend for family as my brother and wife were over visiting from Australia. There's plenty of room for 12 people! The house is huge, amazing and clean. There was plenty to keep us entertained from the cinema room, pool table and bar to the jacuzzi! Dean and Carmel were very helpful and friendly and the whole experience was so easy from start to finish. Thank you Dean and Carmel for lending your beautiful home to us. We will certainly be back and will recommend your place to everyone we know

Everything advertised about Captiva more than met expectations. This is a incredible venue located in a wonderful location. Hands down the best stay-cation ever & it's not even close! Big thank you to Shane in Fivestar & hats off to hosts Carmel and Dean. This is a top class pad!

We visited Dean’s Airbnb to celebrate together as a family. We had an absolute great time. The space is excellent for families of all ages. Dean was very helpful as a host and only ever a call away. He provided very clear instructions on how to work the various great facilities. 10/10 would definitely recommend

Fantastic hosts, absolutely amazing house both inside & out, several outside dining areas and hot tub were completely private yet located in sun traps. Cinema room, pool table and games room were a hit with our entire group - family of 8 with 6 teenagers/young adults ranging from 15 to 20yrs. In addition beach within 5minutes drive from house. To cap it all we had amazing weather for the week, we’ll definitely return next year.
