The Beach Nest

�� Feather your nest with sun, sand, and saltwater — welcome to Beach Nest, a charming island-style beachfront cottage nestled directly on the Gulf of Mexico on Wiles Drive, Captiva Island. ��️ This adorable cottage with fabulous views is your personal hideaway on one of Florida's most beloved barrier islands, where the living is easy, the sunsets are legendary, and the beach is always just steps away.

�� Beach Nest is the ideal escape for couples or small families of four. Two beautiful bedrooms — a king and a queen — are cozy and comfortable, and two full bathrooms ensure everyone has what they need after a day of sun and surf. ☀️ The island-style décor wraps you in that relaxed, breezy coastal charm the moment you walk through the door.

🐾 Traveling with a furry companion? Beach Nest welcomes pets with a $500 per pet, per week non-refundable deposit. Bring your four-legged family member along — there's no better place for a dog to run and splash than a Captiva Island beachfront! 🐶

�� A fully equipped kitchen with a Keurig, toaster, and cookware makes it easy to start your mornings right before heading to the sand. A gas grill is perfect for seaside barbecues as the Gulf glows orange in the evening light. �� Central A/C, WiFi, linens, beach towels, and a washer/dryer are all included. Beach chairs and umbrellas are provided — because you shouldn't have to pack a single extra thing.

�� Wiles Drive sits close to the heart of Captiva Village, where you'll discover a delightful collection of restaurants, boutique shops, art galleries, and island adventures. From fresh Gulf seafood dinners to kayak rentals and shell collecting walks at dawn, Captiva has a rhythm all its own — and Beach Nest puts you right at its center. 🦅

Beach Nest an excellent choice for a romantic long-weekend escape or a quick family beach trip. Whether you're watching dolphins play in the surf from the beachfront grounds, toasting the sunset with a cold drink in hand, or just reading a book while the kids build sandcastles, Beach Nest offers the kind of simple, pure beach joy that's impossible to find anywhere else. ��

This is beachfront living in its most charming form — intimate, relaxed, and completely magical. From the moment you unlock the door and feel the ocean breeze drift through, you'll wonder why you ever stayed anywhere else.

  Beach Nest is a must do experience! The property is beautifully appointed and located steps away from the beach. The large screened in porch is the perfect place for morning coffee or lounging with a good book. Both bedrooms are lovely, and so are the spacious en suites. Each morning we strolled down the private shell-lined path to the beach. The gentle roll of waves welcomed us as we either floated or searched for shells in the crystal clear water. Restaurants and shops are within easy walking distance. After a delicious meal, take advantage of this property’s crows nest as it presents a panoramic view of the beach and is a great place to view sunsets! Beach Nest, we miss you already!

  When I put a deposit on this home, the pictures on the website were of an older home. We were so surprised and happy to find that the entire house has been renovated! Now it's a beautiful, airy beach house with modern amenities and high end appliances. Situated with one house between it and the beach it is built with living space above the height of the beachfront home so there are still views of the water from the porch. There is also a sitting area on the roof with views of the ocean and bay. This home shares a garden/outdoor dining area with two other homes. We enjoyed our time in this lovely home!
