Captiva is still recovering from hurricane damage. This resort is under construction! The private beach is a 2.5 mile DRIVE from the condo, and the beach is not very nice. Many areas on the resort are blocked off. There is large machinery everywhere, and dumpsters full of construction debris. I’ll look forward to returning when the rebuild is complete.

The room was spotless, and the check-in staff was incredibly friendly. The trolley driver was very accommodating, and the team at the ice cream shop was also warm and welcoming. The beach was absolutely stunning—I keep thinking about how much I want to go back. Swimming with fish all around me was such a memorable experience. Overall, it was an amazing trip for both kids and adults. Thank you!

Our condo was beautiful and clean. Felt all new and had all we needed. There is a lot of work going on around, lots of hammering and trucks coming and going. The elevator didn’t work the first few day, but was fixed. The only real problem is the bugs and no-see-ums. They don’t treat for bugs so we got eaten alive on the beach and by the pool.

First visit to South Seas. It is at the far northern part of Captiva Island. Its secluded, and quiet. The rooms are actually condo's which are really nice, clean and comfortable. Please keep in mind this resort is still undergoing construction from Hurricane Ian, but they have done a great job and can't wait for it to be finished as it will be amazing. The beach is gorgeous, not crowded and the chairs and umbrellas on the beach are a great touch as we forgot to bring ours. Every employee we met was so friendly, helpful and kind. Strongly recommend renting a golf cart. It helps get around the resort which is quite large and bonus it allows you to go into the little town which is adorable and has additional dining options. Very nice having a Starbucks on property as well. We will be visiting again. If you are looking for a quiet trip with rest and relaxation and great accommodations this is the place!!

We checked in and was welcome by a nice person at the front desk Marissa she got us checked in and showed us a map of the property and everything that was going on. We asked about upgrading to the beachside Villa and Brian was nice enough to come out and upgrade us for free the villa was beautiful. Had a great view of the beach with the sunset. Everything was perfect. It was our anniversary and a welcome surprise was on that day. They delivered a bottle of wine with some nice candies for us to enjoy overall the areas nice they’re still trying to get their sea legs back from the hurricane two years ago, but things are progressing nicely.

What can I say? It's a slice of paradise in the continental USA. From the location, it's beautiful beaches, the resort amenities (under construction/rehab from recent hurricanes, but still), the property itself and the staff. All wonderful. Local shops and restaurants a quick bike ride, walk or drive away, simply phenomenal. Hidden gem... so hush.

Everything about the property was excellent along with the staff and services. My only complaint was the $1500 hold they put on my card for resort fees and incidentals. The resort fee is $50 per day but they hold another $1250 for anything you purchase on at the resort. I understand why they do it but it would be good to advertise that before I booked. Either way the resort was incredible.
