3BR Captiva Cottage with Hot Tub & Steps to the Beach

🏖️ Because it really, truly is — welcome to Life's a Beach, a newly decorated and refreshed beach cottage on beautiful Wightman Lane in Captiva Village that perfectly captures the joy, color, and easy magic of island living. ☀️ From the masterwork tropical garden to the covered hot tub, the skylights to the vibrant pergola-adorned outdoor spaces, Life's a Beach is a vacation home that makes you smile from the moment you arrive.

🌺 Wightman Lane is one of Captiva Island's most desirable village addresses — quiet, sandy, and lined with tropical beauty, yet steps from the warm Gulf of Mexico waters and a short stroll from the island's best dining, shopping, and outdoor adventures. The Captiva Village restaurants, the Island Store, and all the island fun are within easy walking distance. 🌴

🌿 The grounds at Life's a Beach are a true work of art — a masterfully landscaped tropical garden bursting with flowering shrubs, potted plants, soaring palms, and massive shade trees. Pergola and trellis structures painted in bright, cheerful colors frame the outdoor spaces, while dense privacy hedges create a lush green sanctuary all around. There's a large front sundeck, a picnic area, and a back deck that wraps around the house. 🌅

🛁 The private covered hot tub in the beautifully landscaped backyard is a highlight — perfect for an evening soak under the stars after a long, glorious day at the beach. A gas grill and outdoor dining table make alfresco meals an everyday pleasure.

🛏️ Three bedrooms accommodate up to 8 guests: the primary king en-suite bedroom opens via sliding doors onto the back deck and features a walk-in closet and flat-screen TV. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third offers a full bed with twin bunk and twin trundle — ideal for families with children. Two full bathrooms serve the home. 🌊

🏡 Inside, skylights and high ceilings bathe the living room and kitchen in natural light. The kitchen is compact but fully functional and well-equipped — a Keurig, full cookware, and everything for easy island cooking. Central A/C, WiFi, linens, beach towels, and beach chairs/umbrellas are included.

Life's a Beach truly lives up to its name: colorful, joyful, and full of life. This is the Captiva vacation cottage you'll dream about all year and return to every chance you get.
