A New Chapter to Discover

For over 75 years, families and friends have gathered within this secluded 330-acre retreat and wildlife preserve on the shores of Captiva Island to experience life’s greatest joys together. Now, with the introduction of elevated guest experiences, expanded services, and refreshed amenities through Club Captiva, South Seas invites you to make new memories on Florida’s iconic Gulf Coast.

We’ve made significant strides toward a refreshed South Seas experience with the opening of select outlets and amenities.  As we continue our transformation and prepare to introduce new offerings like Beach House and Captiva Landing, some areas of the resort remain under development.  We appreciate your patience throughout this journey and as we move forward with our progress in making South Seas the #1 family resort in the United States.

Guests have access to our two-and-a-half glorious miles of pristine white-sand beaches where you can take in our famous sunsets, world-renowned shelling, and incredible natural wildlife. From bicycling and walking the shoreline, to simply relaxing and enjoying time with friends and family, new experiences and fond memories await.

Guest Safety

To ensure the safety and well-being of our guests, please be aware the resort is currently undergoing significant construction and improvements to further restore and add new amenity spaces.

During your stay, you may encounter heavy equipment moving along the roadways and association parking lots, and near private homes and villa drives. Some of the machinery sits at a considerable height from the ground, which may obstruct the operator’s line of vision. For your safety, we kindly request that if you are driving, please adhere to the posted speed limits and come to a complete stop at stop signs. For those who are biking, walking, or jogging, please remain vigilant and aware of your surroundings.

To ensure your safety throughout the property, we have erected protective barriers around areas that are currently under construction. Even if there is no visible sign of construction, certain areas have been cordoned off due to potential hazards.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work towards enhancing your South Seas experience. We look forward to creating unforgettable memories with you.
