Beautiful 1BR/1BA Private Cottage Getaway(Duplex)

Year Purchased: 2008

Why the Owner Chose Private Homes

This location is less than .3 miles (5 min walk) to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. Just hop onto one of the two provided beach cruisers and explore everything the island has to offer. We are close to everything including dining and Jerry's Market. For the golfer there are two semi private courses that offer a fun round while surrounded by the island's beauty

The Unique Benefits at this Duplex

Our properties focus on the budget traveler looking for a four to five star stay. Our furnishings and location are a cut above the rest which we believe sets us apart from our competition. All of our guests come back for a repeat stay.

 

Owner's Map of Private Homes

The property is lovingly owned by a couple from Miami that uses it with their children. They have designed the interior to an upscale "Shabby Chic" style with beach house overtones. Comfort, style and the anticipation of our guest's needs were our goal to provide to our visitors.

    • A great place to stay for a vacation. Everything was ready for us , including all notes of places and things to do. Everything we needed for the beach was right there including all toys for kids. The cottage was stocked with movies, games, dishes...the only thing we needed to bring was a bathing suit and sunscreen. The decor perfect for a beach cottage . We can't wait to return to this charming home away from home.

    • We had a terrific stay at "The Getaway Cottage." The cottage had a beachy style and the owners paid great attention to the little details. The cottage is in a great location. We enjoyed being able to ride the bikes up to the beach and around the island. Shops and restaurants are right around the corner. Shelling at the beach up the street was the best! Go out into the ocean and dig in the sand to find huge sandollars. We would recommend this listing and would definitely return for a future trip!

    • We had a great time celebrating our 34th anniversary. Thank you for sharing your cottage with us. The ammenities were more than we expected...better than some of the hotels we stayed at! Everything was in close proximity...Jerry's Foods & Restaurant was a great find...groceries, meals, and DVD rentals. What more could you want :-) The beach was great and we picked up quite a few shells.

    • This is such a fantastic beach getaway. We really had a great time and enjoyed our anniversary at your special cottage. The location was central and close to everything. We walked and rode the bikes to breakfast, lunch and the beach. Thanks for the tip on the Captiva sunset...the sun really melts into the ocean. Shelling was better at the local beach at the end of the street and we actually found that to be the best beach that we visited. The rooms were nicely furnished and the bed was very comfortable. We can't wait to return again and are already planning our next visit. Thanks!

    • My husband and I rented this cottage with our 2 young children and it was just perfect! It was a close walk to the beach and close to everything we could need. The house was adorable and kept really well. We would definitely rent here again.
