About
Dwelling on the past is only a positive when you book your stay in PO Box #7. The enchanting bungalow was once a major hub of Captiva Island as the local Post Office, and now it is yours to lodge in for your next vacation. Fully renovated yet still retaining the classic charm of Captiva’s heyday, PO Box #7 lives splendidly large while managing to remain within budgetary means. Once you lift the latch on the famed wooden gate surrounded by private hedges, sea grapes, palm trees and twinkling cafe lights you are instantly transported to exclusive tropical seclusion of the vintage persuasion. Everything one needs is located right at your fingertips in this designed-for-two garden atelier. Famed Andy Rosse Ln, with countless restaurants, a convenience store and water rentals, is only an 8-minute walk from your bungalow. Enjoy the private beach at your fingertips, and rest your head on the plush king-sized bed or take a leisure nap on the loveseat that was perfectly developed for post-beach lounging. Whether you are a history buff or looking for a stay with coastal casual flair, we have no doubt that PO Box #7 will always deliver.

We have vacation on Captiva since the early 90's. Staying 1st at McCarthy's Marina then Jensen's Twin Palms. This was our 1st time staying directly on " The Gulf" .The room was totally remodeled after hurricane Ian. Only 90 steps to the ocean, what else is there to say! The room had a small, but good size fridge along with a Kruig coffee maker, microwave and toaster. Shower was more than adequate. They had a good supply of beach chairs and umbrellas for guest to use. Special thanks to Host/Owner Kim at Breakaway's for proving us with a remarkable/ memorable stay in P.O. Box # 7 Captiva Island Fl, 33924

We've been staying here for several years now and it has failed to let us down. Jensen's on the Gulf is a wonderful place and the Jensen's have left it in good hands with Breakaway. We look forward to many more visits. We are happy to see progress on the marina….CAPTIVA STRONG!
Adorable!

We've never stayed at Jensens on the Gulf but have always wanted to. We own some timeshares in the SSR and being they are not ready for use this was the perfect opportunity to try something new. The unit we stayed in was adorable and the beach location is prime!! We were steps away from the beach. There are tons of chairs, wagons, umbrellas and other beach items for use. I would highly recommend staying here and would love to stay again and try out another unit on the property.

The cottage was wonderful! Very clean and adorable. It's right on the beach and walking distant to a great restaurant. They have chairs, floaties, umbrellas, everything you need for the beach, it was fantastic! We will definitely be back to stay!

What a perfect place to escape to!!! We loved this small cottage feel. Even big enough for two couples to play cards inside of in the very cool air conditioning early evening. Just steps from the beach without crossing traffic. We will definitely recommend highly to our friends and family. Thank you for an outstanding vacation!!!
A Great and relaxing place

I spent a long weekend at Jensen's On the Gulf ~ PO Box Suite and was impressed by the property. The suite was in pristine condition with no issues. All instructions that were provided was sufficient. And the location was great because of the easy access to the beach. Beach chairs and umbrellas are provided. The property is within walking distance to restaurants and grocery store. I would definitely stay at Jensen's PO Box Suite on my next visit to Captiva Island.

The cottage itself is spacious, well-laid out, and well-appointed. We especially appreciated the fridge/freezer size (not a dorm size but bigger). The bed was very comfy and had quality linens on it. The screened porch was a lovely bonus, giving us a bug-free, cozy place to play cards in the evening and lay some wet things out to dry. Our favorite part of staying in the P.O. Box Suite was definitely how quiet and private it was ~ away from the other rooms, no foot traffic, and our own parking area made this second honeymoon feel truly restful. Being able to walk out to the pristine, empty beach every day was the highlight of our trip. While we did a fair amount of driving around the island, every afternoon would find us back on “our” beach until sunset. A great value, great location, and the privacy and quiet were perfect. Thank you so much, Jensens ~ we'll be back!

Immaculate, beautifully decorated bungalow just steps from the beach and amazing sunsets. Will stay here every chance we can! We were just a quick walk to restaurants and stores but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet. We loved every minute of our stay!

We selected Jensen's on the Beach because of its great location. But the website did not tell the whole story. Just a short walk from our front door to the gulf with no roads or busy traffic to worry about. They provided chairs, umbrellas and wagons to port everything to the beach. The PO Box 7 unit was beautifully landscaped and provided the perfect secluded hideaway. Kim met us at the property and we were very impressed with our studio which is plenty of room for two. We plan to return next year to celebrate our anniversary again and will be choosing this property again.
This small place was a nice surprise. We usually stay beachfront, but this place was perfect for our stay. We kept our bikes and standup paddle boards in the private courtyard. We enjoyed the path to the beach and the privacy of the beach.The bed and the accommodations were outstanding. The place really grew on us.
