Description Description
Some places just feel like home the moment you arrive — and Beach House on Captiva Island is one of them. This charming island-style cottage sits directly on the beach on Wiles Drive, giving you some of the most fabulous Gulf views and direct beachfront access you'll find anywhere on the island. ️ Wake up to the sound of waves, step onto the sand in seconds, and let the magic of Captiva wash over you.

Beach House is the perfect intimate retreat for couples or a small family of four. Two cozy bedrooms — one with a king bed and one with a queen — are thoughtfully appointed with that warm, laid-back island style that makes you feel instantly relaxed. Two full bathrooms mean no waiting, and the bright, open living spaces flow naturally to the beachfront grounds outside. ☀️

Beach House is one of the few pet-friendly options on Captiva Island! With a $500 per pet, per week non-refundable deposit, you can bring your furry family members along for the adventure. Because every great beach vacation is better with a dog chasing the waves beside you.

The full kitchen is well-equipped with a Keurig, toaster, cookware, and everything you need to fuel a day of beach fun. Whether it's a quick breakfast before hitting the sand or a leisurely dinner as the sun sets over the Gulf, cooking in is always an option. A gas grill invites outdoor cooking on warm Captiva evenings.

Central A/C keeps the cottage comfortable through even the hottest Florida afternoons. WiFi, linens, beach towels, and a washer/dryer are all included — and of course, beach chairs and umbrellas are provided so you can set up your perfect spot on the sand right outside your door.

Wiles Drive is ideally positioned close to the charming Captiva Village, where you'll find beloved restaurants, boutique shops, galleries, and island activities just a short stroll away. Whether you're renting bikes to explore the island, joining a dolphin-watching cruise, or simply collecting shells along the waterline at low tide, Beach House puts you right in the center of it all.

With a flexible 3-night minimum stay, Beach House is perfect for a long weekend getaway or an extended vacation. This is direct-on-the-beach living at its simplest and most magical — no resort fees, no crowds, just you, your loved ones, and the Gulf of Mexico.

A Trip to Paradise
Cute cottage and the location was perfect. We loved being able to sit on the porch and watch the waves in the gulf. It was an easy walk to Andy Rosse lane and to the Green Flash. Shelling was great! The house could use some new mattresses and a grab bar in the shower.

Another Great Time at the Beach House
We have stayed at several properties on Captiva but always come back to The Beach House. First stayed here when the Jensen brothers owned the cottage. The remodel is wonderful. Great location, and always spotless when we arrive. Highly recommend!

Fabulous Fabulous Beach House!
We stayed in this gorgeous house for one week! Absolutely loved it. It is everything and more you could possibly want in a beach house. The views, sitting in the living room, the bedrooms and the lanai are breathtaking! The entire back yard is perfect. We could not have been happier with it. The house itself is perfect. The kitchen is completely updated with the best appliances and stocked with everything you need. Bathrooms are updated and beautiful. Giant televisions in living room and bedrooms. Honestly, the view of the beach is so wonderful here, it is Captiva Island at it's best. Can't wait to return in '24!!!

Checks all of the boxes!
Charming cottage with beautiful updates! Loved the private access to the beach and the location is within walking distance to restaurants, groceries, shops and more. It was truly a stress-free delightful stay. Hope to return some day.

Beach House - We'll Be Back
The Beach House suited our needs and expectations very well -- as would be clear from our re-booking for the same week next year.
The location is a definite high point -- facing the beach, off the main road (thus quiet) and a short walk to the "center" of Captiva.
Its lay-out and simple furnishings were comfortable and functional.
Herewith small-scale observations, not detracting from our overall up-beat views:
A couple of modest amenities would be useful -- luggage racks for packing, and additional towel racks in both bathrooms.
Also - understanding (and not disagreeing with) the "bare cupboards" approach, it would still be convenient to provide an adequate week's supply of basic household products -- garbage bags, laundry and dishwasher pods, paper towels and TP -- given the distance and traffic to markets for renters and the difference in economics when management can work in bulk.
Last - a usual quibble with a vacation property is the low quality of kitchen knives, which matters to anyone doing any cooking. Surprise - the Beach House set was top quality -- but (!) they have degraded to terrible condition, actually a safety issue, and should be cleaned and sharpened by someone qualified to do so.
Thanks and we'll see you in a year!

Beautiful Beachside
We've stayed at the Beach House several times over the years. The new owner has done a wonderful job upgrading this property. Of course the location is ideal. Inside and out, The Beach House is wonderful and we will definitely be coming back!

Loved our stay at The Beach House!!!
The property was wonderful! The house was perfect - enough space and comfortable furniture and beds. The outside area was amazing!!! The only thing I would change would be to add more glasses - there were only two wine glasses - and include some cleaning products. We flew in and buying all the cleaning products - sponges, laundry detergent, items to clean the counters - is expensive for such a short stay.

We would definitely stay again.

Beach House - A Perfect Captiva Getaway!
We really enjoyed our stay at Beach House! The property was in great condition, clean and pretty, and the views were gorgeous. Everything we needed was thoughtfully provided. The beach is a short walk away on a sandy path, and the Captiva Village restaurants, store and church are all walkable or a short drive away. The customer care given to us by Lisa and her team was top notch.

PERFECTION
Just returned from staying the last week of April,2023. This cute little Beach House was perfect for us. Walk out directly onto the beach from both the living room and master bedroom. The house was super clean and everything was even better than the pictures on the website. If you want to spend a relaxing laid back week on the beach just "chilling out" then don't look any further than this. Its close to the village area on Captiva too.

Beach House
A perfect place for us. Single level, room for overnight guests but not the whole family, walk to the beach and the sunsets, and to restaurants and the library. Spotlessly clean, newly refurbished.

Amazing Time on the beack
We had a great experience. Clean house, and felt newly remodeled. It was nice to stay at a home where the beach was in the back yard. I have been renting homes for years in Captiva and normally stay in the Village at "Life's A Beach". I will definitely be sharing time between the two home and will recommend many others to stay at "The Beach House"!

Beach week
Nice location and cute cottage and great view. Very nice finishes and kitchen. On the negative side there is a significant lack of important kitchen items such as cutting boards, knives were rusty, and only a keurig for coffee (no coffee pot), no storage dishes, lack of basic kitchen items like plastic wrap, aluminum foil, etc. Otherwise a very nice time.
