  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.

• Great Beach Cottage Vacation

  Great Beach Cottage Vacation

  • Guest Drew
  • Date of stay 02/09/13
  • Review Submitted 02/17/13
  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: Families with teenagers, families with young children, tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

  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, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

  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 Carolina

  Amazing beauty of sun, palm breezes, salt air, a tasteful drizzle from blue skies and sunsets and sunrises that were calendar worthy. Some of the things we did were kayaking, snorkeling, fishing, shelling,cooking out, renting a scoot coupe car and touring the island. Had delicious dinner at the Bubble room, Outstanding! Spent quality time with family. The limes and coconuts were wonderful. This cottage was cozy and private. We enjoyed everything about it. One week was not enough, next time we will stay longer. Thank you for sharing your paradise with us and making us so comfortable and feel very welcome. Ginny and Mark from South Carolina

  The weather was perfect, clear skies. some wonderful things we did were kayaking, walking in the beach, reading, family time at the Cottage. We saw manatees and dolphins in the wild and all kind of sea shells. We all have beautiful family moments. It is a beautiful place to have a vacation and to relax. We spend a great time here. We enjoy Coquina so much. The island was very special and beautiful. It was a wonderful week. We want to return to this country and to this nest. Thank you!

  Coquina Cottage and our weather was heavenly; the amenities superb with yin and yang scattered everywhere about the property. Tonight is our last walk on the beach, soak in the hot tub and view of the sunset. We are sad to leave but are planning to return with our children and "grands". We enjoyed our conversations with the owners and wish them continued health. And last but not least, to you Nacho. We especially thank you for coming to our rescue on more than one occasion.

  Everyone has their own concept of paradise and if this is not, then it is the next best thing. This week has been fantastic, just as I hoped. My dogs also loved it, they thought the beach was their own. Unforgettable week!!! We must also thank the owner for thinking of every detail and setting Coquina with all their love, harmony and peace. Lastly but not least, the staff, Yolanda, Randy, Cornelia and Nacho. The attention is first class, better than a 5 star hotel. Hope to see you next year, we'll be back.

  We have been to Captiva/Sanibel several times. This is our first time at Coquina Cottage. What a fortunate find. The landscaping is magnificent. Coquina Cottage is charming, quaint, romantic and has a great aura. We truly have enjoyed ourselves. So much more beautiful then Pompano beach. Thank you for all of your help and the plants as well. See you next year.

  My Favorite Memory...sunburn on our second day- NO, eating my Cuban sandwiches and coffee on a sun dappled porch on a beautiful blue skied afternoon or getting great photos of my family at sunset with mango daiquiris my wife made. I'll always think about the beautiful, super decorated and supremely landscaped retreat in all my favorite Florida escapes! I Loved It! It's a wonderful life,

  Not our first trip to Sanibel/Captiva but our first at Coquina Cottage and what a great find!! Loved the peace & quiet & and privacy. Jack and Rosie (our 4 legged children) loved it too. We trailered our little boat and left it at tween waters for the week so we could use their pool and facilities. Didn't dine out too much this trip other than a cabbage key lunch. Loved the "North Grotto" for happy hour cocktails and then moved to the "south Grotto" for dinner. Will most definitely recommend this piece of paradise and hopefully will be back soon.

  a much needed vacation from the mid-west winter. Best spot on Captiva for a sunset! Owners were great hosts, best meal and night of dancing was at Traditions on West Gulf drive. Fishing was great! I caught 10 different species during our stay. Jill painted many nice seascapes for us to remember our week in paradise. We will return!

  The location of Coquina cottage was wonderful. Right on the Gulf coast with great views from the sea - could even see dolphins from the cottage! The garden was very pretty and had obviously had a lot of time spent on it. Two kayaks were provided which was great for the kids. The beach was really quiet. We rented both units for four of us. Even if we had only been two people I think we would have struggled with just one of the units as neither of them had everything you needed. The bottom unit had a bigger kitchen and also a washer and drier. The top unit had more living space and a great view. The kitchen was, however, really small with literally just a cooker and sink with no work surface and the fridge was really small. We had a great time at Coqunia and would definitely return.

  Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway.

  Owner response: Thanks! Whenever you'd like to return, let us know! We're glad you chose to use the whole house so you can see all of what we have to offer as a cottage!

  Coquina Cottage is BEAUTIFUL! This was our first journey to Captiva, and the beaches and flora of this area surpassed our expectations. If you have access to a boat, travelling north to Cabbage Key for lunch is a great way to spend a day closer to home, 'The Mucky Duck' is a cozy restaurant with delicious food. Thanks to Mike, Brian & Nacho for a relaxing vacation.
