Coral Cottage hidden in Palms short walk to Beach

Actual review left by a Guest “We had a great time in Captiva Island. It's the perfect place to get away for a relaxing, secluded, car-free vacation. Federico's cottage is conveniently located just a short walk to the beach and had all of the amenities we needed to relax and enjoy the trip. Federico was helpful and responsive when I had any questions. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking to disconnect and enjoy pristine beaches with lots wildlife and natural beauty. ”
