Why We Love It
Family-friendly, 330-acre resort sprawling over the northern third of Captiva Island
2.5 miles of white-sand beaches hug the property’s perimeter, giving off a secluded feel
On-site golf course is “one of the most picturesque 9-holers anywhere” (Frommer’s)
Copious dining options, kid-friendly activities and a 4,000-square-foot spa on site
Overview
Sprawling across the entire northern third of Captiva Island, South Seas Island resort “feels as lush as its name suggests” (Fodor’s). Two and a half miles of pristine white-sand beaches hug this 330-acre nature preserve, offering a quiet and secluded oasis just an hour’s drive from Fort Myers.
Trolley shuttles ensure guests can easily traverse the whopping acreage, zipping through the property’s ever-green mangrove forests to the numerous on-site dining outlets and amenities. Accommodations vary across the grounds, from marina-side hotel rooms to quaint condominiums and cottages, spacious private homes and villas.
Before taking part in the resort’s copious on-site activities and amenities, head to the seashore to hunt for unique souvenirs on the property’s superb shell-hunting sands. Resident manatees and dolphins are often spotted splashing away in the nearby waters, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled not only for shells.
Tee up at “one of the most picturesque 9-holers anywhere” (Frommer’s), book a treatment at the 4,000-square-foot state-of-the-art spa or take the kids to the family interactive center to enjoy an abundance of kid-friendly activities. Water sports, tennis courts, bikes and a massive pool complex are also available for guests wishing to stay active throughout their stay.
From the press:
“Water on three sides give the resort a delicious seclusion” – Fodor’s
“Its Gulfside golf course is one of the most picturesque 9-holers anywhere” – Frommer’s

I have traveled to South Seas multiple times, often in groups as I have endorsed the resort to others. Will likely go elsewhere on my future trips to Sanibel/Captiva. My daughter was in a cast and not allowed to use the slides, the main reason we go to that resort. The slide rules are posted in 4 different areas, so initially it was difficult to figure it out even though she used the slides a few times given a long-sleeve UV top she had that some of the attendants missed. Imagine her disappointment that initially she could go and then no more for the rest of our stay. My objection extends to not being given the opportunity to sign a waiver of responsibility for the resort if she was to be hurt. That blind and all or none mentality is unfortunate and self-serving. It’s too bad as otherwise our stays over several years have been positive. As it is, her cast comes off today and it could have been removed a week ago - we did not foresee such stubbornness and please do not aim to spin it as it being for her safety. It was because of your fear of attorneys, plain and simple. Otherwise a waiver would have been allowed. Thank you nonetheless for the positive past stays.

This compound was beautiful, the villa/ building was dated and could use a through cleaning. The room itself was clean but the paint was peeling above the shower, the fan on the lanai needed cleaning, there were cobwebs on the outside top of the door.
We enjoyed our stay however had we not gotten the deal from travel zoo I would have been upset. 1st: i requested an early check in and got to the hotel only to be told our room wasn’t ready at 2pm, she said it would only be 30 minutes but was almost an hour and 30 minutes. 2. On day of check out housekeeping knocked on our door at 9:30am despite the do not disturb sign on the door, we do not have to check out until 11, I was pretty angry about that. 3. We were told it is a cashless/cardless resort however both the ship store and provisions store took cash/card. 4. Everything closes between 9-10. If you would like a drink/coffee after a later dinner you better bring your own. 5. I would suggest if staying in a villa that you stop at a grocery store before serving as EVERYTHING is exhorbantly overpriced at the resort!!! I don’t mind pathing for things however they do t give you much information and then lock you in once you arrive. 6. When I called the night before check out to request we be able to check out at noon not 11, I was told to call back in the morning t see if that was possible, they were not very accommodating. Also each time I called the resort from the time of booking to check out each person who answered the phone was not overly friendly.
Again, we enjoyed Captiva and the resort, had it not been for the excellent travel zoo deal we would not spend the money to go back.

Everything was beautiful. We ate at two of the restaurants on the property, the property was well cared for. But the rooms really need to be re-done. We wondered if the lower priced offer was because the rooms (in our case, 1 BR condo) were in need of updating.

Our room was great, but just a few suggestions. Full size mirror.The air condition was loud. The cleaning people stood outside of our building one day in a golf cart and spoke loudly to the cleaning ladies that were standing upstairs in the building.

Our villa room was certainly not up to resort standards, nor was the pool in our complex. While everything was in passable working order in our room, it appeared as though the unit had been neglected for quite some time. Outdated furnishings. Caulking needing to be done almost everywhere. Air Conditioner had a hard time keeping the humidity out of the unit. Balcony furniture seriously outdated and metal table was sticky to the touch. NOT RESORT STANDARDS. When we commented on this at checkout the only response was, "these units are individually owned and we have no control over them." Very disappointing.

Upon booking, $199.00 was posted to my credit card as I expected. When I arrived, this would left an outstanding balance of $ 886.58 (Original booking of $1,085.58 -$199.00). I also had a $100.00 resort credit. So, the resort proceeds to place a hold on my credit card for $1,910.00 on 11/21. I departed at 9:35 am on 11/25 and the resort has still not settled my account as of today, 11/28.. This is totally unacceptable !
Will not waste my time on complaining about the 1980's style room to which I was assigned.

only one slight complaint, the servers at the pool were a little grumpy, two days in a row. I am not sure if it is because they had to work a holiday weekend but it was fine, just thought they would be a little more friendly.
One suggestion is to leave the pool area open later, it is so beautiful on the water, they could add firepits and let families hang out together at night there.
but overall all, I didn't want the time there to end and I can't wait to go back.

The place is beautiful and are happy about our weekend there. But be prepared, it's expensive. We expected for an island resort but things we didn't really expect was the PER PERSON PER NIGHT resort fee (most resorts have them but room per night). Another is food/drinks which again are usually inflated at resorts but $13 (without tip) for a can of local beer and lunch at the pool with mostly "kids meals" was $115. Again, it's a great place that I would recommend to anyone. Just be prepared for the extra charges/higher prices.

The resort is very nice. The location is superb. The rooms are as expected. Nice to average for this price range. They could use some color and new bedding to spruce things up. Some areas of the resort look a little tired. But at the time of our departure they were repaving much of the resort. So that will help. Overall we enjoyed every day spent here and would return.

We were staying in the Beach Front Villas and in the end of our building there were 8 units. 3 of the units were being renovated and the jackhammering noise of the renovation went on the entire length of our stay. To say it was annoying is a complete understatement. We actually had to avoid our room during the hours between 9am and 7pm. This is completely unacceptable! The staff couldn't have been nicer and offered us a $200 refund but the individual owners of these units should have to notify the resort when renovations are going to take place. I would not even consider returning to South Seas Island Resort because of this issue.

The location of the resort on the northern most tip of the Island is extraordinary. The amenities were very good. We enjoyed the beach, pool, fitness center, and restaurants.

The 1800 building rooms can use an update. The carpet in room 1810 was very dirty and rundown. The shower tub took hours to drain. The building needs painting. The exterior walkways to the hotel rooms were filthy. They were not swept over the six nights that we were there.
