Weâll be back! Clean, well maintained condo on the beach! Steps from gulf and a short walk to town. Screened balcony to watch the sunset! Weâve found our new favorite spot on Captiva!
Super close to the beach, stores, and restaurants! The condo had some nice updates in the living room and kitchen but could use some in the bathroom as well.
We had a great stay in our beach villa condo for the week. Our host was very accommodating and the unit met our needs very well. Itâs nice to see the area recovering from the hurricane. We hope to stay again. Thanks.
Overall this was an easy rental. There was nothing special about the unit as it felt very stale with all white walls and furniture that was a little outdated. It does have new floors in the main living room but not sold on the rest. The kitchen seemed fine but we didnât do much in there. The bathroom was dated, very small, but did the job. The shower drains very slow and I was standing in ankle deep water after a short shower. The host, Kim, was responsive before and during our stay but I had to call as I was never sent the actual address so I did not know the unit until arrival.
All in all, we chose this unit because of location. Great location and affordable so that was good for a quick trip to Captiva. The interior could stand to be updated with a personal touch to make it more inviting but I would stay again. Keep in mind that the resort and surrounding areas are still under construction so expect that these do not look like they used to.
The view was amazing and we had easy access to beach and pool. Both were well kept. There are 5 beach chairs and one good umbrella
Most beach goers were considerate. But it would be nice to have someone to settle the rowdy ones. We never felt threatened.Note: door codes donât change between rentals. I was told that will be addressed soon.
Restaurants we tried were good but hours seem rather limited. We like to cook and made most of our meals with groceries we purchased before we got to the island. The kitchen is quite well stocked with cook and serve ware. There are 2 beautiful gas grills near the pool. We were hoping to grill our fishing charter catch but the dolphins ate our keepers!!
The layout of the condo was accommodating but a little frayed around the edges. The bathroom drains are slow and the shower biting. The shower liner, face cloths and sheets and bedspreads need updating. We asked for some extra towels. The maids took care of it.
Kim (the manager) is a very busy pilot and itâs important to communicate well in advance any questions and needs.
I do appreciate the fact that the island is still in recovery from Ian but beware there were no elevators working & there is construction M-F for those who might be sensitive to that.
Iâm sure we will visit South Seas again!!
DO NOT STAY HERE PLACE IS A HAZARD AND SO IS THE HOST
The place is under construction. Debree, porta potties, refridge in the parking lot, dumpster trucks, danger signs on doors etc. We were the only ones renting in the building. It was clearly under construction. NOTHING in the summary was noted except that the elevator wasnt working. Contacted host, completely unreasonable, misrepresented the property. Neglected to disclose residence was under construction and renovation.
This was the perfect place to just relax! Just a short walk to the beach. Also had everything needed for a fun day at the beach. Spectacular views!! Great place unwind and recharge. Will definitely come back.
Short vacation trip with an adult family. Overall the experience was good. The condo wasn't as clean as we would have expected but it was okay. Location was great, elevator was helpful and the beach equipment was fine. Price was comparable to other condos in the area.
Super easy rental process and Kim was great with communication! Thank you so much for the stress free vacation that we so desperately needed. All of us loved your gorgeous property!
We have stayed in several other South Seas Plantation Condo's over the recent years, so our comments are based on comparisons. The "check in" process was somewhat stressful. The website did not provide the address to the Condo nor door code. After driving 4+ hours, it took about 45 minutes after we were suppose to check in to know the exact address and door code. Then we discovered the Dishwasher was broken, including the ice-maker in the freezer. We advised the Owner directly, but nothing was corrected during our stay ! The Tub/Shower had mold all over, as well as the Tub/Shower curtain. The Towels were very thin . . . like you would find in a cheap motel. Basically, this bathroom needs a total renovation. The only positive point was the Sunset's off the balcony. The overall condition of the Condo should be priced no higher than $ 125.00 / night !
We had an amazing stay and can't wait to come back. Host provided excellent and timely communication and property was exactly as advertised. Kitchen is well equipped with anything you might need. This is BEACH FRONT! The view from the balcony is nothing shy of spectacular. Highly recommend!!!
I have been coming to South Seas since my 18th Brithday. I am not going to mention how long ago that was but suffice to say that was a long time ago and I still love it!!!!
We have 9 total units in South Seas that we rent. We absolutely love this beach. The shelling is amazing. There is usually a very nice breeze and we love to sit on the screened in patio and watch the sun set. There is nothing like sitting and watching the sun set.
We love to vacation here it is very relaxing and has great sunsets.
⹠15 magnificent miles of white sandy beaches and a treasure chest of shells ⹠74.4° annual average air temperature ⹠77.5° annual average water temperature ⹠7 days a week of trophy fishing ⹠20+ miles of tropical bike paths ⹠300 species of birds, 50 species of reptiles and amphibians, and more than 30 types of mammals live here
access to beach chairs and beach towels this unit of mine is in an elevator building
I also have beach umbrellas but I do not guarantee a guest has not broken them since so many get broken without anyone letting me know. I do replace them every time I am there and check them for damages but again I do not guarantee them for your stay unless I have been there prior
