It was an amazing 5 days with South Seas for our 20th wedding anniversary. The room was great and even though they are still rebuilding from the hurricane, the resort was comfortable and the amenities accessible. Also having a room to cook was great and there are two options to pick up groceries on Captiva 2-3 min away from South Seas. We had a small issue with our A/C not cooling well in the living room. A leak was found and addressed quickly on a Monday morning. We will book again

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!

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.

Rebuilding but limited right now.
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.
