SPECIAL!!! Summer and Fall discounts. Please call !!!
Our charming Coquina Cottage sits right on the endless BEACH of Captiva & has private beach, great seclusion. This very romantic and private Florida cottage is surrounded by half an acre of the most beautiful TROPICAL GARDEN, and only a few steps to the waters of the Gulf of Mexico - All the beach and sun you can soak in, very well appointed, great attention to detail.
The SUNSETS are awesome, the endless views phenomenal, LAZY DAYS on the beach in our coconut palm grove...so easy ... and life is beautiful.
Our Coquina Cottage is pleasingly comfortable and accommodating with many freebies, including Netflix. The cottage has two separate, but optional, COZY studio suites (upstairs and downstairs) with each 400 sq.ft. under A/C. Each sleeps up to two adults and two kids with a queen size bed and a queen size sleeper sofa. Computer and internet, netflix and Blueray.
But you'll want to be outside, as our beautiful beach garden with its large spa, sea grape canopy invites you to all kinds of OUTDOOR activities. Read a good book in the HAMMOCK, explore the Gulf of Mexico with our kayaks, enjoy your dinner at our sandy dining room in the shade, or just gaze at the evening stars in our big elevated SPA. Lighting leads the way for a nighttime beach walk or a MOONLIGHT swim.
If shelling, body surfing, fishing, and sunbathing is too tame for your memory book, take a short walk to Sanibel's Santiva Village or drive to Captiva's PICTURESQUE historical village with rental boats, sightseeing & shelling charters, sport fishing, parasailing, jet skiing, restaurants, shops and more. Sanibel's famous Ding Darling National WILDLIFE Refuge is only a 10 minutes drive away.
Our Coquina Cottage offers a unique and very romantic setting. The UPPER SUITE is elevated a single flight of stairs with the most beautiful UNOBSTRUCTED VIEWs of the Gulf, beach and gardens. It has higher ceilings, an additional 200 sq.ft. of elevated deck and a small breakfast kitchen with a BBQ on the deck.
The optional LOWER SUITE has a large kitchen, full laundry and a large ground level deck. This suite is wheelchair accessible. Each suite has a kitchen and BBQ grill.
Packing for Coquina Cottage is EASY, as we provide for our guests: iron, ironing board, hairdryer, high quality bedding, bath linens, beach towels, a starter kit with dishwasher soap, dish sponge and soap, paper towels, trash bags, toilet paper, bar soap, shampoo and conditioner.
Great elevated SPA, many eating venues and relaxing hammocks. Kayaks and Beach toys. We aim to go ABOVE AND BEYOND expectations, and continuous improvement is our mantra.
Experience Coquina Cottage and find out why our guests come again and again...
Our RELAXING GETAWAY is about a 45 minute drive from Fort Myer's Southwest Regional International Airport, a 1 hour drive from Naples, and 2 hours from Tampa, Fort Lauderdale and Miami.

Once the waters calmed down the kayaking was splendid. I didn't want to get out of the water. Dolphins galore. Next trip out it was dolphins and jelly fish. On another as I was getting ready to get in the water, saw a manatee six feet from beach. The staff was immediately responsive to any issue. You can't go wrong. I went with my best friend of 44 years to celebrate our 50th birthdays. We stayed in the upper cottage which was perfect for sunsets! We didn't realize it until the last day that if you opened the blinds on the other side, you could see the sunrise! Since we were in the upper unit we did not have access to the washer and dryer below. We were there in the off season and the options for washing clothes wasn't good. Extremely minor thing, this place rocks . . . worth every penny. Truly no need to go anywhere.Recommended for: Adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

Location is perfect! A few problems the first 2 days, but Randy & Nacho were there very quickly to fix it. The owner is really lucky to have both of them taking care of his property. Sunsets were wonderful and a perfect place for the grand children. Wish the downstairs had a little more room, but all worked out very well.Recommended for: Families with young children.

Great Beach Cottage Vacation

The Coquina Cottage was great for celebrating our 2nd honeymoon. We rented both units and enjoyed the beautifully landscaped private grounds surrounding the cottage. The Cottage was well maintained, comfortable, and complete with amenities. The beach in front with endless white sand made for great days watching dolphins and evenings watching spectacular sunsets. Loved that literally everything was provided by this rental property for a great vacation, so only needed to bring swim suits. The beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, hammock, and kayaks were welcomed extras.Recommended for: Tourists without a car, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children.

We enjoy every minute! so much we are already planning our return. You though of every detail and we appreciate it. This is truly a paradise. I have gotten so much rest and relaxation and not looking forward to going back to the real world. We absolutely enjoyed the Bubble room, top notch food and service, the jungle gallery was awesome. The hospitality was enjoyable. The lazy Flamingo was great for cooking our fresh caught fish. Love, love, love, loved my much needed week in paradise on this wonderful Island at the Coquina paradise. See you soon. Robbie and Cindy from South CarolinaDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 3/3
