About this property

South Seas Beach Front king bed sleeper high floor pool renovated 2023

$250 fine to your security if you keep the lights on the patio and also if curtains are not drawn from
9pm to 7am due to turtle season.

Location: Building beach villas 2600 The first floor has the laundry, the second floor starts with the rooms and this unit is located on the third floor second occupied and floor two of elevator. This complex is very close to the entry of the South Seas Resort. So it is convenient for the restaurants and activities outside the resort.



Amenities: There is a beach directly in the front of the unit which is accessed via a path of wood decking. There are two tennis courts (fee to play changes seasonally and subject to opening dates please ask), 2 gas grills poolside and a covered eating area, also you may select one of three heated pools to use. We provide beach chairs and beach towels, 2 beach umbrellas not guaranteed any more due to repeat guest damage that is not reported, beach sand toys, and beach cooler. I pay a little more per month to make sure my internet is faster that what is the norm at South Seas but still not super fast it is the fastest you can get inside the resort

Beach: There are 7 total Beach Villas buildings and only 4 paths to the beach, we are located directly in front of a path and steps away from a pool. There are elevators in the building or stairs if you choose. Caution: Two of the building do not have elevators (2100 and 2000 buildings). The beach is NOT controlled by South Seas but you may not use the chairs or umbrellas or towels provided by their staff. That is why we provide chairs Your beach towels are located inside your unit as well.

View of the Beach: Direct view of the Gulf. Amazing sunsets from your screened in patio. This unit has only one floor above it so the view of the beach is excellent. There is a screen balcony for which to enjoy the view.

TV's: There are 2 televisions that are flat screen. Both have DVD players. We provide some movies for which to watch. Free WiFi is available.

Bedding: There is a king bed and a pull out sofa bed, plus a love seat in the living room. The bedding consists of a duvet and comforter, Hotel collection decorator pillow shams and down pillows. All linens are also provided for the beds and sofa.

Kitchen: There is a full size kitchen in the unit. All of the necessary items are available for preparing meals for the occupancy of the unit. There is an ice maker in the refrigerator.

Laundry: There is laundry on the first floor that is shared.

South Seas Amenities: YOU DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THOSE AMMENITIES. This includes the trolly, the golf course, resort restaurants, gym, and pool complex 2 miles down the raod.
NOTE: IF YOU DESIRE THOSE AMENITIES THEN BOOK AT SOUTH SEAS ALSO THE RATES AT SOUTH SEAS ARE ABOUT DOUBLE WHAT I CAHRGE. SO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GREAT SHELLING BEACH, 3 POOLS, AND ACCESS TO FEE FOR TENIS MY CONDO 2223 IS FOR YOU!!!

ALL OF THE BEACH CONDOS ARE INDIVIDUALLY OWNED AND NOT CREATED EQUALLY, WE HAVE UPGRADED OUR CONDO, NOT ALL ARE THAT WAY.

Keywords: south seas, Gulf front, direct beach front villa, great view
I do require a rental agreement be signed
Golf Carts can be rented with a local provider
I no longer guarantee the use of umbrellas in my units due to the damage by guests I do have beach chairs and umbrellas but DO NOT guarantee the umbrellas
YOU CAN USE THE FOLLOWING:
1. 3 condo pools 2. 3 BBQ areas 3. All pool chairs, loungers and tables at the 3 condo pools since I own in all 3 associations 4. Tennis pay for play just as you would at the resort as of this moment it is $22 per person per day. Rates subject to change by the resort 5. All my beach items to include chairs(two in the unit), beach towels (one per guest on the reservation) 6. there are so many off site restaurants (walkable and others by car) not sure why one would eat at south seas (expensive) 7. You can rent bikes, golf carts and other items of interest with local providers that are less expensive than you would pay with the resort

Elevators are functional but I make no guarantees as if they will be working during your stay due to the fact they are mechanical items I will not do refunds if elevator decides not to work during your stay

The location was excellent. Communication was quick, but a bit weird. The rooms were clean except for a sanitary liner stuck on the bathroom door. Crazy, but we will certainly stay here again!

Great place on the beach!
We loved our stay! The unit was located near the pool and only a short walk to the beach! We had everything we needed. Side note: with our long stay and lack of nearby grocery stores, it’d be nice to have food storage containers in the unit.

10 year anniversary trip
This was our first trip to the Captiva area and it was WONDERFUL! Kim’s information about all of the restaurants and shopping helped us so much. We had a very relaxing stay. The condo is exactly as described and was stocked better than any condo I’ve ever stayed in. We were on a tight budget and this place offered more and had an amazing location without breaking the bank. I would most definitely rent from them again. It felt like home away from home.

Location
This property's location is great as you can walk to everything. I also was not expecting to see osprey and bald eagles right from the screened in porch, where we spent our time when not on the beach. The unit has been painted since the pictures were taken and looks nice. Shower area just needs a little bit of work. Communication with Kim was perfectly clear and instructions were easy. I asked her about the contractors working nearby and her answers were accurate. The area is recovering and rebuilding from the Hurricane, so contractors are working in the area, but did not disturb our stay. We enjoyed our time and would stay hear again.

Great Location
This condo really is in a great spot. You can see the ocean from the patio and walk to the pool in under a minute. The beach is beautiful and we saw dolphins almost everyday. The downside of this condo is that it is showing its age and needs a makeover. The bathroom shower was moldy as another said and the knives did have a little rust on them. The balcony screen has a few holes in it but the bugs weren't bad for us. Overall it didn't bother us too much since its location is perfect and the beach was phenomenal.

Owner Cancelled
We were unable to stay at the property. The owner approved the stay late Friday night and cancelled at 1:40a (4 hrs later) Saturday morning so we were left scrambling when we saw the cancellation around 8:30a. She said it was because the elevator wasn’t working and the pool was shut down, however, we didn’t have plans to use either. She could have asked us before cancelling.

Owner reneged while knowing there would be jackhammering above us on tile floor…roofer pounding every day…had to move car to avoid falling items from roof every day! A nightmare..pool was closed upon check in…they put chemicals in, to be opened Sunday, closed permanently on Monday….no rhyme or reason…just sign on gate pool closed! It was a nightmare!

Romantic and Serene Getaway
This is the way to go! South Seas Resort is a beatiful and has all you need. We had everything we needed and then some. They thought of it all from the chairs for the beach to the candles incase the power goes out. This was our second trip to Captiva and South Seas Resort and glad I didn't rent through the resort this time. As with my last visit I am not impressed with any of the resturants in Captiva so I did cook almost all my meals. The fishmonger came out to the general store with fresh fish just about everyday. The water was crystal clear and the weather was perfect. Plan on going back next year and will definatly be calling Kim to get her place again. Thank you Royal Shells for making my vacation perfect.

In need of an update
The view was nice and the kitchen area was nice. The bathroom was OK. The living room area needs a serious update. The lounger chair upholstery was disgusting - worn out, dirty and stained. We didn't even want to touch it let alone sit in it! The sofas were a little better but based on the chair we through sheets over the sofas before we sat on them which we limited as much as possible. We didn't realize there was no window in the bedroom so no opportunity to listen to the ocean or nature sounds. We would not stay in this condo again.

Resort feel within the ease of Captiva's charm
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our 4 day stay and the condo was exactly what the review stated. There are small things I wish we would have known (I will list those below), but for the most part it was perfect. There were a few more families than we expected, but that was only an issue because my wife and I didn't have children :) The restaurants were very good, but be prepared for pay about $5 more for dinner meals. I would strongly suggest the bubble room and Over Easy Cafe for two places to eat at. If you are flying into Fort Myers airport and simply coming to the island for your trip, I would seriously consider looking into a taxi and simply getting bikes. We rented a car and I am not sure if the $225 was worth a relatively short trip. The ocean was wonderful and the shells are even more than I expected (makes it very challenging to run or walk on the beach). The chairs and umbrella provided were perfect and made each and every trip to the beach wonderful. The condo was a typical beach condo and was decorated appropriately. The bedroom was very comfortable and that was a highlight that warranted mentioning. I would recommend this really for anyone that can survive time in an enclosed location with your party. We would have a difficult time in that space with our three children.

Getting what you pay for…
The price of renting the unit for June was very reasonable. But, South Seas Resort was not up and open then. We needed to reschedule due to that. The host would not refund any monies. She said her unit was recently updated and not damaged by hurricane Ian. Yet, the screen porch had most of it’s screens missing. We could see the ocean from indoors, luckily. The pretty couch in the photos and a side chair were very soiled. The host replied, It is a rental unit, when I pointed it out. We covered the seating with sheets. To feel comfortable. The two pools nearest our unit were empty. The last pool was not maintained well. We have a pool at home and vacuumed ours. She did warn us that the elevator may not be working. And it was not. My knees ached as I made the steps each time. I am 68 and my husband is 70, but more spry. She met us upon arrival but did not respond to three days of emails to obtain the entry code . The gate guard contacted our host, but we were unsure after flying from IL if we would get in! At least our bed was clean and comfortable. I can’t say that about all of the pillows though.

We have stayed at South Seas many times. This was our second time renting through Home Away vs. South Seas Direct. You miss out in the South Seas amenities - Daily room cleaning, trolley service, resort restaurants. pools and and boutiques, but their daily fee is not worth it. The Beach Villas are the perfect location for the Beach Lover. Owner provides Tommy Bahama Beach Chairs and Umbrellas, which are top of the line and allow you to settle away from the chairs and umbrellas lined up military style for "South Seas Guests". The Beach is beautiful and the water is warm. It is a quick walk down the beach or road to the restaurants for dinner. There is a Captiva Trolley service that runs until 10 pm and leaves from outside the South Seas Gate. We recommend Mucky Duck, for sunset cocktails, Key Lime Bistro, Sunshine Café & RC otter. The screened balcony looks out on the beach and is the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee or sunset cocktail. The Kitchen provided all the necessary equipment to make our daily breakfast & lunch. We brought our own lunch bags but zip locks are provided. Bed is comfortable, but the beautiful white comforter in the photo has been replaced. The shower area is well appointed but Very small. Only 2 beach & bath towels are provided per guest. The Living area is in need of an upgrade. We stayed after the prior guest that stained the chair and the orange stain remains.

Great location and view, but that’s about it. This condo needs maintenance and a deep clean!
We could tell from the reviews that this condo was dated. But, we didn’t expect it to have so many issues. Some suggestions to make for a pleasant place to stay: Floor: floor needs to be deep cleaned and grout re-sealed. Our feet were black with the first couple of hours of our stay. We mopped.. twice. This helped, but the grout is black and not by design. It’s light colored in unused areas. Shower: The shower ceiling has paint peeling. This isn’t small peels. It didn’t make for a great vacation morning to pick white specks out of my hair. The shower also needs to be deep-cleaned. My husband was mid-shower with my three year old when he noticed the whole shower head was covered with black mold. This was not a tiny bit of mold. It was absolutely coated. This is a health hazard that can be avoided with a simple dip in bleach once a week/every other week. I live in a high humidity area as well, and this works. Simply scrubbing does as well, which would be beneficial for the whole bathroom which showed a lot of dirt and mold. Vents & A/C filter: Every single vent was coated with dust, dirt, and mold. In a humid environment, it is paramount to clean these these regularly. I suggest unscrewing the vents and giving them a good scrub with bleach in a sink. This one is simple, the A/C filter. The closet doors for the A/C vent were coated in dust and dirt. The filter was dated, great idea. But, not so great if the filter is 6 months old. It was dated January. This is July. It was coated in inches of dust and dirt. This wasn’t noticed until the last day of our stay, when I bumped into the door and got dust on my shirt. Simple solution would be to make sure maintenance is performing this task or check-in on the property personally. My 3-year old and I were both sneezing and coughing the entire stay. I had to give my child Zyrtec. This is a health issue. Respiratory issues can be serious. Furniture: The furniture is aged, dirty, and smelly. I live in a humid environment and with a three year old and husband. Simply vacuuming and light scrubs do wonders. But, the furniture may be too far gone for that. The bed is hard. Very, very hard and uncomfortable. The couch cushions sink to the fold-out bed frame. Patio chairs were even moldy. I suggest soapy water/scrub. Overall, very disappointed. A vacation should be a time to relax in comfort. This condo didn’t offer that.

We had a wonderful time, great location on Captiva, lovely condo!
We had a wonderful time for our stay at Captiva! great location, nearby restaurants were walkable, the beach and pool were right there, easy access, easy check in with the South Seas gate for our gate pass, entry code upon arrival worked perfectly, condo was clean and well appointed, beach towels & the kitchen and such, all the necessities were there, and a great view out to the Gulf! Looks like some updates have been completed since older reviews such as the shower. From other personal experience I know tile floors can be extremely difficult to keep 100% clean when you have people coming and going from the beach, but it was clear a good, solid deep clean is done between every check out/check in. Just to be aware, and nothing the owner can do about this, if other people outside/going to other units are being noisy, you can hear people out in the exterior halls, but generally everyone is friendly and respectful, a very nice family place for a getaway! Well worth it, we would gladly return in the future!

South Seas Villa Captiva Review
For starters, the communication with the property owners/managers was fast, thorough, and easy! They not only provided all the information we needed about the rental and its amenities, but also included a detailed description of different activities, restaurants, and other things to do on the island, which was so helpful! The room itself was exactly as described, which was refreshing. The balcony has a beautiful view of the ocean and landscape. The island is very easy to navigate. We saw a lot of people in golf carts, but we never had a problem finding parking with our car. There's also plenty to do within walking distance. The amenities provided provide a lot of flexibility, and save time and money. The beach chairs and umbrella provided are a great example. If it weren't for that, we would've had to rent chairs and an umbrella every day........ and only have access to them during renting hours. But thanks to the chairs and umbrella provided, we were able to sit and watch multiple sunsets from the beach, while the rented chairs were already locked away. We recommend that anyone interested in signing up for any activities through the South Seas Resort get a map of the resort. It spans over a couple miles, which we didn't initially realize. If you're looking for relaxation this is the place to be. So much of the island and surrounding water is protected land that it's not saturated with people, or business. There are multiple nature, and wildlife reserves on the island....... which we highly recommend checking out. The national Shell museum on the island was amazing as well. This was a fantastic experience from beginning to end. We absolutely recommend this rental to anyone interested.
