Lazy Palm is back and beautiful. We all went through a lot after hurricane Ian , then there was Helene and Milton, but Lazy Palm is back better than ever. You will definately be in a totally, like new home. I was in Lazy Palm 3 days after the hurricane, traveling back and forth by boat just to start doing everything I could to keep the property safe. It was quite an experience.
Lazy Palm has been brought back to its original beauty, with some things even better, and the home still offers all of the great features that it always had. The golf cart has been totally refurbished and the bicycles are new along with most everything else. New carpet, newly painted, a lot of new furniture, and decor will make you feel like you are in a new property.

With nearly 5,000 square feet of living space, this newly renovated, inside and out, (after the hurricane) luxury home has plenty of 'Island Living' space for everyone.

The large wrap around decks and the 4th level 'Crows Nest', with a 360* view of the island ,are a favorite for guests and are just some of the bonuses this fabulous home has to offer. Bayfront views of the intercoastal waterway are endless! Rise early for breathtaking sunrises or relax and watch the boats and dolfphins cruise by!

The 4+ bedrooms are spacious, comfy ,and all feature custom heavenly beds. All bedrooms have LCD TV's with cable, private bathrooms and access to the outside decks with awesome views.

A beautiful open floor plan makes a great space with the living room, dining area and a large beautiful modern kitchen with a wrap around breakfast bar for entertainment.

Open the doors to the lanai and dine or relax overlooking the large patio area with a heated pool and spa. All screen enclosed for beautiful year-round enjoyment. Sun, swim, dine or relax in this great space.

The large recreation room off of the pool area features a LCD TV with cable, a 12 foot shuffleboard table, a foosball table, a bar area with seating, a queen sleeper sofa, and a large full bath. An elevator services all floors for your convenience.

Beautifully landscaped and decorated with a lot of love by the owner, Lazy Palm is perfectly located in the 'Village Area'. You are truly a block from everything. The beach, shopping, dining, waters ports, a gym and more, but on a quiet little street with views of the bay and only a 5-6 minute walk to the beach!

Lazy Palm has everything you could want for the perfect island vacation!!

Lazy Palm consistantly receives only 5 star reviews.

Excellent home close to everything

Beautifully situated close to everything this is a very comfortable home. The pool area was easily spacious enough for our group of 7 and the house itself was in excellent shape (no mean feat considering the recent storms). The property owner was helpful and very responsive to all our questions.

Excellent home and location on Captiva

We absolutely loved this home and location for our family vacation. The inside and outside of the home were exactly as pictured (if not better), very well appointed, clean, and comfortable. Loved having the golf cart, beach chairs and other equipment to enjoy our fays at the beach! Great location, can walk to everything in town. Kathy was extremely responsive when we had questions. We would definitely return!

Beautiful home, great location!

We've stayed at the Lazy Palm many times, and we're looking forward to our next visit. We've seen other homes in the area, and the LP is our favorite. The natural light, the pool/lanai, the elevator, the golf cart and such a great location in the village. LP is a great place to relax with family and friends!

Terrific Captiva home

Our family has stayed at Captiva several times so very familiar with properties and homes nearby. This property and location are terrific! The home is exactly as shown on the VRBO site. It is perfect for families. It was spotless when we arrived. The owner Kathy is just great-easily reached and immediately responsive to questions or concerns. The management company Royal Shell is also very helpful. The use of the golf cart is a real bonus- fun and helpful to get around. We hope you enjoy this beautiful home as much as we did with our family.

This property is excellent and Kathy is wonderful to work with. The house is very spacious and beautifully decorated. Its location on Captiva was close to all of the action but secluded enough to feel like we were the only people in the area. We will return!

Family Spring Break on Captiva Island

We had an awesome vacation with our family. Lazy Palms was the perfect place to stay. Its location is a on quiet street with close proximity to the Beach and Island General Store, and Betty Bops ice cream, coffee & sandwich shop. We enjoyed the crow nest which we sat and had coffee every morning to watch the sunrise.The house provided lots of space for the nine of us. We appreciated the elevator as one family member uses a wheel chair. It gave her access to all levels in the house. What can we say about the pool, it was awesome, swimming morning, afternoon and night time. Access to the golf cart was the cherry on top shuttling everyone to beach to watch the sunset each night. Our family gives Lazy Palms and Captiva Island a 10 out of 10. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!The Drake’s From Minnesota & Nebraska

Fantastic Week at Lazy Palm

We had a wonderful vacation at Lazy Palm for our spring break. The house was perfect and fit our two families of 5. We enjoyed the easy walk to beach, shops, and restaurants. We also loved the pool, ping pong and access to the golf cart. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed using the grill. Kathy was so attentive to any needs that arose and was a responsive host. We hope to come back to Captiva and the Lazy Palm!

Great space for a family get together!

This property was perfect for our family gathering. Everybody had their own bed/bath plus a guest bath. The best way to start the day was breakfast on the balcony overlooking the heated pool, which was used everyday. The location was convenient and just a short walk to groceries, coffee, shopping and the beach. We enjoyed making lasting memories at the Lazy Palm.

Great house! Had everything you need to make a beach trip enjoyable. Outdoor furniture, beach chairs, golf cart, ping pong for rainy days. Pool and hot tub were great; with lush vegetation surrounding it you have great privacy. Loved the location; central to everything yet quiet. Great beach access!

Perfect paradise!

We absolutely loved our stay at Lazy Palm. We were a little worried about the island since the hurricane, but the house was absolutely beautiful! Everything seems brand new and clean. The furniture and beds are very comfy. The pool and jacuzzi were perfect for relaxing in the evening The golf cart and bicycles were our favorite part. We were able to explore the island like locals! The island seems to be coming alive again! We had a wonderful time and will be recommending Lazy Palm to all our family and friends.
