STORYBOOK CHARMING BEACH COTTAGE ~TURN BACK TIME & RENEW YOUR CHILDHOOD DREAMS
Make new memories & savor the old time feel of Sanibel and Captiva Islands ~~ There is simply nothing like it in Florida!
Close your eyes: imagine yourself relaxing on a screened porch, while the grouper on the barbie sizzles. You are wearing cotton shorts and a blue tee-shirt. No shoes allowed! The smell of coconut oil is in the air. Small sandpipers are hunting for food right under your feet. A whipporwill, who lives in a nearby tree, sings along to your soft music. There's a mother woodpecker too and sometimes a sea turtle's nest is roped off in the backyard. Sip some wine. Drink some herbal tea. Or a cup of java from The Coffee Bean on our island. Enjoy an afternoon of pure joy: That's Florida Best! That's SANIBEL ISLAND!
No need to wonder what you should bring to the cottage for your long holiday: No guessing what you'll need. Simply pack nothing but your bathing suit and flip-flops. We make certain you come to a very neat and clean beach cottage prepared just for you.
Rent a bicycle for a day, a week or a month Pedal anywhere on the island for lunch or a few hours of exercise. Great bike path one lot away form our home. Jump on your bike and take off for a slow ride around the Island. Or bring your own and some even purchase a bike from Walmart (off island) and bring it to the cottage or have it delivered. All ways to pedal away!
On Sunday afternoons, you can bike to a very unique Farmer's Market and fill your basket with bottles of fresh honey, organic fruits and veggies, bakery goods, cheeses and fish. Then you are either off to the beach for a picnic or back home to cook a fresh lunch or dinner. If you go fishing, BBQ your own catch or take it to Lazy Flamingo and they'll cook it for you!
