Another Great Week!
Submitted: May 9, 2013
Stayed: April 2013
This was our second year staying in this beautiful cottage on Captiva. Everyday was summer. We loved being able to walk the beach in the morning and then relax for the rest of the day. The cottage is right on the gulf and is very convenient for access to and from the beach. My husband and I both love to swim and the swimming here is great. The water is warm and clean. The sunsets were beautiful each night and watching them from the screened lanai was fantastic. Another reason we love Captiva is that you can walk to everything. One thing we learned this year is if you are renting through this Owner, as part of their service they have a local property manager who offers free papers (NY Times, USA Today, local paper), cookies and water. There is an office right across the street from the general store. Stopping for the papers each morning was part of our walking routine. Our favorite place to eat is the Mucky Duck. Even if you have to wait for a table it's so much fun listening to the live "Jimmy Buffet" style music and enjoying a drink in the balmy Florida evening. The cottage is fully equipped, clean and comfortable. It has everything you need including comfortable beach chairs, a small cooler, beach towels, and umbrella. All in all it was a great week and we are planning on another return next year.
