This is our third time retuning to this wonderful property, and wonât be the last! No need to rehash what everyone else has said in the reviews. You wonât be disappointed!
We just spent 2 wonderful weeks in Chateau Blanc on Captiva Island and we highly recommend. As shown in the photos on the website, the beautiful beach house is nestled right onto the beach where we sat in our chairs daily and watched birds and dolphins. We were visited daily by the nearby bald eagles and osprey. We enjoyed our evenings on the screened in lanai watching those amazing sunsets. Ella was the perfect host,ensuring that we had everything we needed.
The views surpassed our expectation! The house was clean and well stocked. The area is private with single family homes and we often had the beach to ourselves. Ella, the owner, lives right next door and was very responsive. Thank you for sharing your "guest house". I might recommend a nonstick frying pan for eggs and a couple of lap blankets for the chilly mornings..
The cottage was perfect for the two of us! The beds were comfy and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need for cooking. We spent our days shelling, reading, and just relaxing. We ate out a couple times but cooked most of our meals in the cottage. If you are looking for a quiet house in the perfect location, this is it!!!
There was some lingering evidence of Hurricane Helene because of the timing, but everything was perfect. The area was just opening back up just as Milton was gathering steam in the Gulf. The weather in between however was very nice and the accommodations were just right for what we were looking for, a nice quiet get away for my wife's birthday. The beach was a stones throw away from the house and the pool was in a nice sunny spot. The kitchen had all that we needed to prepare meals during the week, and the screened in porch kept us from being eaten up by the sand gnats and mosquitos in the evening. Truly, a perfect spot to unwind.
Well maintained, beautiful property in an outstanding location, even better than advertised.
Owner is wonderful and attentive-focused on providing a memorable visit.
Had the most amazing time at this house and it was perfect for our family of 3 and two dogs. House was impeccably clean and had everything we needed. Pool looked new and the beach right in front of us was priceless. Ella is the sweetest and we will be back!
Ideal vacation house and location. We have been vacationing in Sanibel for the last 10 years. We discovered this property when our prior spots were destroyed by IAN. It was an amazing stay. Peaceful and private. Lovely ocean views and beautiful landscaping. We spent our week moving between the ocean and pool each day. Everything we needed for a day at the beach was provided. Wonderful host. We really appreciated her prompt response to our questions.
My husband and I had a wonderful, relaxing stay at Chateau Blanc! It is a wonderful house for a couple or a small family, right on the beach with a beautiful pool. The view of the ocean from the house was spectacular! We love Captiva and have stayed on the island several times and this by far was our favorite!
Hands down the best small house, 2 bedrooms, right on the water. Had the most enjoyable week by myself with various friends stopping by. I live in Naples, Florida but wanted some time at the beach. The house is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need. The owner, Ella, is a real sweetheart.
So glad to find Chateau Blanc so we could overlap with family and friends also in town. This house was well equipped and had a lovely location. Especially enjoyed the trees that were saved after Ian and left standing to provide great shade while not blocking the view. Attentive owner stayed in touch to make sure all was okay.
Chateau Blanc never disappoints. A comfortable, clean home with a short walk over the beautiful dunes to the wonderful, quiet gulf beach. There is a public beach about 0.2 miles away, but even when that beach is busy, thereâs plenty of privacy. When we had our fill of the beach for the day (what?), the heated outdoor pool was calling our names. A wonderful stay!
