South Seas

The property is still recovering from the hurricane but it is in good condition and our room was clean and comfortable. The restaurants on the property have not opened yet but they have a couple of food trucks (burgers and tacos). The staff were friendly and accommodating.

Loved renting a golf cart and riding around. And the zero entry pool was great!

This is the spot if your looking for a family friendly venue with a beautiful property, great pool with slides, golf, tennis and a sunset view like no other!!

SouthSeas is still recovering from Hurricane Ian, but that did not stop our family from having an amazing stay in Captiva! The beach is gorgeous and spans over 2 miles, the trolley allows for transportation throughout the resort and renting a golf cart allowed for us to cruise through town! We will definitely be back!

AFTER confirming my non-cancelable booking, they sent me an email saying they have 'limited' facilities and some of the elevators may not work from time to time - Limited? No restaurants, portable toilets, nothing available except a bar at the pool Elevators? ALL the elevators are not working ALL the time - I am awaiting surgery for my knees - they made me walk up 4 flights of stairs carrying my luggage. The place looks more like a building site than a resort. AND - AND - they add a high 'Resort fee' to the bill then they add a 'property fee' Are you kidding me? There should be a DISCOUNT for the lack of facilities, lack of elevators, lack of consideration for paying customers. I will NEVER reeturn

This is my 3 visit to this hotel.Last experiences was great for family and kids. Hotel is under construction due to last Hurricane,it is too sad, but prices are higher than before and also $100 more for a resort fee.Which resort? Food is not good and very expensive.

Everything was perfect, amenities close by and there was a shuttle running continually for those amenities located further away.

Have stayed in past year and room was wonderful. This condo was not updated. It was clean, but needs updating. Was missing so amenities, quickly staff replaced. (Coffee maker, toaster). This unit - Bayview 2516 did have Allan with extra table and couch area- that was a bonus. Bay view pool is a good alternative to the main pool also. Dock is closed- by can still fish.

Pool and bar closed at 5pm.

The property is under heavy construction!!! That fact was hidden by the management otherwise I’d never reserve the room!!! That’s why they made it non refundable! We checked in at 3 pm, drove around the property and checked out at 4 pm. The conditions were horrible!!!

The staff was amazing. They do close the pool early each night, which was disappointing. The drinks at the pools side bar were great but they are expensive. $17 each. There is construction, but it didn't bother us, not noisy at all. The pools are super clean and our villa was great. Would definitely return.

Since the hurricane they have done a lot of new construction. Nice pool areas. Great food. Aside from fridge not working, dirty towels and moldy shower curtains the room was overall updated and clean.

Grew up at South Seas and the magic has not changed and it’s Gorgeous! Truly Wonderful Grounds that will be even more Beautiful after Construction! It’s is an absolute favorite place for us! But, paying almost a $1000 a night and a 250 deposit PER DAY! the standard needs to b higher …as far as the staff - but only checkin / front desk / cleaning and MAINTENANCE (biggest Fail) as ALL other staff (pool, beach trolley) were AMAZING- with positive great attitudes. Our beach villa had no internet - no working TV entire trip! Light bulbs not changed and no shelf holders in refrigerator. Reported many times and silence. No one ever followed up. Don’t you guys do a walk thru? Checkin :( hardly any info given including about golf carts! Or trolley schedule. - no staff at beach or pool knew the last trolley ran at 5pm (too early) and we have an 88 year old with us. So that made for a hassle first day big time. Very sad - ALL windows except balcony door covered in dirt and bugs for looks like years and most are broken and don’t open and are dangerous. This is not a hard fix but when it was brought up it was “oh it’s not our problem”. Unfortunately yes it is Do Better! With less Attitude! Construction drills start at 730am so be aware. We are so saddened with this very fixable and preventable situation but still luved to b there- If they can get that part together and an attitude adjustment with the Front desk and maybe a real life maintenance dept it will be TOP notch!

My daughter had bug bites all over her body i think they have bed bugs.

Great, clean, quiet, safe resort! Loved our stay!

While we understand you are still getting things back to normal after the hurricane…the property near our rental was in terrible shape. They were rebuilding the deck/walkway to the beach and there were large areas missing boards which made our toddler trip and fall. The grounds around our unit were unkept; overgrown bushes, trash and debris scattered randomly throughout the property. The stairs and outside of the unit was in terrible shape as well. Just horrible all around for the price that you charge. Also, you should mention that the nice pool/club area is over a 5 minute drive from the units you rent! According to the pictures and description online, the beach club was on site near the rentals. We are highly disappointed in our stay.

Wonderful stay! We rented a golf cart that allowed us to travel throughout the resort, different beaches, and restaurants right outside of the resort area. Friendly staff, and clean property.

There was a few mishaps with checking in. First sent to wrong condo that hadn’t been cleaned yet. They had written down the wrong number. No problem. So we then moved our stuff to 2nd condo. Just after unloading everything. Got a knock on door from maintenance to spray for ants. Which he found ants all over the LR couch and end tables and kitchen counter coming from slide door. Had to go back to office and ask for another condo. They were very apologetic and had to get another one cleaned. We waited over an hour. Terry was very nice and apologetic. He even came to second condo to help us move to the third one. The condos are on second floor so up and down steps while moving was a lot. Stressed us out our first day it was kind of a bust going anywhere while waiting for the 3rd condo. Things happen. The property is very nice and the manager Terry was very apologetic and helpful. Terry handled the situation very professionally. He even offered to buy us lunch from one of the food trucks. I would definitely come back. It was our first time to Captiva. South Seas is beautiful. We are planning a trip for South Seas in the fall.

South Seas is back! The staff is incredible as always. The units were clean, modern and updated. Amenities were beautiful and convenient. 5 star dining options at Harborside Restaurant. World class shelling just right outside on the beach or nearby on Sanibel Island. Will be back next year as always with the family.

Living space was fantastic!

Badly hit by a succession of Gulf hurricanes. Beach was great beachside villas were very dated and certainly not even close to meriting $500 per night including all fees, taxes etc.

No open restraints on site although there are 2 food trucks. We could hear noise from adjacent units and had to run a fan in the bedroom to cut down on the noise.

This is not 5 stars and 4 stars is generous Arrived at 4:30pm for 4 check in and there was a line out the door with limited staff and only 3 of many check in locations open - SLOW! Room was tired, but provided a nice view of the marina. Harbour side bar offers $15-$20 cocktails. Breakfast the next morning was buffet style and if the resort isn’t able to get that right, then it’s a major warning sign. Concerns are old/stale options and some options were just low quality. 6:30pm reservations for 25th Anniversary dinner and the place was empty, but service was average. Unfortunately, the food was even worse. Wife added lobster to linguini and that was like tiny white jerky protein. Ordered porterhouse pork chop that was difficult to cut and was overcooked and had no flavor. Tipped traditional 20%, which was not earned. Wife left her jacket over her chair and it was never found. Very few customers, so it’s concerning that a call to room from resort never happened after dinner. Requested bottle of wine to room at 7:45pm. The front desk called shortly after to see if glasses and cork screw was needed, which seemed like great service, until only glasses and a cork screw were delivered to room with no wine at 8:45pm. Called front desk and explained wine was not delivered. Wine delivered at 9:50pm. Wedding in temporary tent across from room provided live music to the entire resort until 1am. 11am check out, but knock at 10am - room to improve

All good just execpt the A/C was kot working properly

Perfect location in South Seas and the condo was great!

Great view of Gulf and overall was exactly what we hoped for… the island has made a strong comeback from the storm and you won’t be disappointed. Shell searching at Turner was off the charts! We will return !

The staff was amazing. They do close the pool early each night, which was disappointing. The drinks at the pools side bar were great but they are expensive. $17 each. There is construction, but it didn't bother us, not noisy at all. The pools are super clean and our villa was great. Would definitely return.

I have been traveling to this resort for years and I realize it’s not their fault that they were struck by hurricane. My issue is that it wasn’t clearly stated when I booked that there was so many limitations and there was so much construction going on even though I called on several occasions to get my room cleaned, nobody ever came, not even to replaced towels. The amount of construction around the major areas to include the main pool was extremely inconvenient and rough to deal with. They really needs to be more notification of the current condition of the facilities.

Property was very good, despite renovations going on. Only problem was that charges on the final bill were not clearly explained

We’ve been coming here for the last 14 years. This was our first time back since hurricane Ian destroyed the island and the resort . The property is still under construction and not fully Staffed either. 4th of July

Very relaxing, very peaceful. EXCELLENT service. The views are spectacular the island community very exclusive and beautiful and expensive. We came to disconnect and we achieved it.

The overall condition of the facility is good considering the damage they had. However, they are still limited. No on-site store, limited access to ice. Only two food trucks that were not great. Don’t seem to answer the phone or return guest calls. Some rooms in good shape, others are not great.

Our time at South Seas was great! Yes they are still rebuilding some areas and adding on more amenities, but we still had a great time. We stayed at a beach villa which was i. Pristine condition and very comfortable for our family of four. The marina side pools and slides were very fun and in great shape. The service we recieved was top notch. We were also provided a smores kit upon check in for the kids to use at their fire pit at night. Highly recommend this resort on Captiva.

Loved the location, enjoyed walking around to other areas and also using our rental vehicle to check out restaurants and excursions farther away.

Perfection and very close to the beach! We’ve stayed here twice!

Property was good still a lot of construction going on to repair damage from the hurricane. Staff was very nice great service overall experience was nice and easy walkable to pool and the private beach.

Great view of Gulf and overall was exactly what we hoped for… the island has made a strong comeback from the storm and you won’t be disappointed. Shell searching at Turner was off the charts! We will return !

I was expecting a little bit more from the resort being that it was pricey and supposed to be one of the best ones there but mostly everything on site was closed which was disappointing and there really wasn’t much to do. There was one bar associate that was extremely miserable and was rude but other then that the rest of the crew were nice and helpful. The room was nice and the view was gorgeous we saw some dolphins from our room.

This is my 3 visit to this hotel.Last experiences was great for family and kids. Hotel is under construction due to last Hurricane,it is too sad, but prices are higher than before and also $100 more for a resort fee.Which resort? Food is not good and very expensive.

It was great I just have to mention that food inside the resort is pricey and you are so far away that you don’t go anywhere . Need to clean the balconies as i was sting by a bee and I see a wasp nest in the balcony door . Dolphins were everyday in front of my room. Harbor side . Golf course is beautiful . Very good shape . Be careful with the bath tub no handlers . Great place it is becoming one of my favorites places to relax .

The overall condition of the facility is good considering the damage they had. However, they are still limited. No on-site store, limited access to ice. Only two food trucks that were not great. Don’t seem to answer the phone or return guest calls. Some rooms in good shape, others are not great.
