Enjoyed a wonderful week at Wade on In. Home is in immaculate shape, wonderful part of the neighborhood, a five minute walk to the beach and into the heart of Captiva. All amenities just as promised. We have been coming to Sanibel/Captiva for more than 30 years and this home and location is one of our new favorites.

House was perfect for a relaxing, family Christmas getaway to the beach! The location couldn’t be any better. So close to, what feels like a private beach and easy access to Captiva. We loved it. Hot tub would have been great in December, and don’t forget to grab trash bags and toilet paper if you’re staying more than three days. But otherwise, exactly what we were looking for and so glad we stated at Wade On In!!

Perfect Location!

We loved the location - it could not have been more perfect! The home was comfortable and we had plenty of space for everyone in our group. The pool got a little hot mid day, but that didn’t deter the kids from swimming! We also really appreciated the beach cart and umbrellas!

Great Family Trip to Captiva

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this property in Captiva! The house is very clean and had everything needed. We really enjoyed the pool and was good relief from the heat. Captiva is still recovering from the hurricane but still worth the visit. Thank you!

This house was wonderful and had everything we needed and more. My family of 6 loved our stay here (children ages 14, 11, 8, and 3) We came when the weather was unfortunately very cold but we still made the best of our trip. We used our VayKLife credit for bikes and it was truly a lifesaver since some days it was too cold for the beach or pool, we biked all over and it was a really nice addition to our rental when we may not have rented bikes on our own without the credit. We did have one really warm day and it was great having the house so close to the beach, we could walk over easily and walk back if we forgot something or if our toddler wanted a snack. The company was great about answering any questions we had and always responded quickly. We will definitely be back!!

Our stay

We had an amazing stay here! It was a beautiful and well kept up house that was well stocked from the kitchen to beach towels and many extras. Very close to the beach and we appreciated all of the beach accessories the were provided. We really enjoyed reading on the screened in porch. The pool was wonderful. However, as one reviewer mentioned above, you could hear the neighbors next door all hours of the day. Very highly recommended!

Grandparents Annual Summer Vacation

This was a great family vacation. The entire property was exactly as described on the website and we could not have been more pleased. Great access to the beach which was less than a 5 minute walk. The home was large enough for our family to spread out if needed but would definitely be great for a couple looking for a getaway as well. Would definitely return. We had one small request for service that was handled by a gentleman that lives on the island within the hour. He knew the property and was in and out promptly. I was impressed!

We absolutely loved this property.

We absolutely loved this property. It was in a perfect location: an easy walk to the beach, close to all of the great restaurants and stores, and close to the marina. The house has a great layout and was beautifully renovated. The landscaping is gorgeous along with the pool and outdoor area. We appreciated the beach chairs, bags, coolers, tent, and cart that were also provided.

Awesome vacation with the kids.

Beautiful location, love the neighborhood vibe. Very private and close to beach and library (for the kids to get school work done). Lush vegetation, lots of birds and iguanas to watch. This home makes you really feel at peace and relaxed. The only bummer is the dishwasher broke on the 2nd day and we were told it would be fixed. After several attempts of asking when it would happen, alas our vacation ended. We didn’t have any paper products so we ended up washing a lot of dishes during our stay. We highly recommend the location and the well done renovation of this property!

We had a fantastic time at this beach home. The house had all the amenities and was extremely clean. Couldn’t ask for better location to beach and restaurants all within walking distance. House like 3 min walk to beach. Pool was perfect. Can’t say enough just perfect time.
