Stunning Harborview Villa in South Seas

Summary:
Gorgeous Harbor front unit in the Bayside Villas complex of South Seas Resort featuring panoramic marina and bay views, plush master quarters, well appointed living area, and a comprehensive kitchen. Renovated in 2024, guests will be among the first to experience the top of the line upgrades and finishes including new kitchen with peninsula, updated bathrooms with walk-in shower, smart TVs, and more...

The Space:
This villa is located on the third floor and boasts 850 square feet of optimized island living space. Making this unit truly unique is its panoramic marina and bay views where one can sip on his/her favorite drink while watching the boats come by. The unit features plush master quarters with a renovated en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower, a spacious living area that opens up to a large screened-in lanai, a beautifully renovated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, peninsula and new stainless steel appliances, and a sleeper sofa for extra guests.

Guest Access:
While this complex has finalized hurricane remediation efforts and is ready to host its first visitors, there may still be construction happening in the area and within South Seas Resort. There may be workers, trailers and trucks in the parking lot, construction activity and some noise, but there will not be any construction inside the unit or in areas that that will directly affect guests ability to access the beach, pool, or stairs. Building elevators are out of order and are expected to be available in early 2024. Please message us prior to booking if you require elevator access and we can confirm if the elevators are available at that time.

Included in the rental of this unit is the use of the many amenities at the Bayside Villas complex, including a heated pool, spa, grill and cooking area, communal laundry room, as well as all South Seas beaches and grounds. The unit is located within a ten minute walk to downtown Captiva Village where one can enjoy great dining at the Keylime Bistro, Mucky Duck, and more! No need to drive!

Access to greater resort amenities such as the pool on the opposite end or the South Seas lounge chair area is not included. We provide beach gear that guests can use during their stay.

Our repeat guests prefer staying with us over booking through the resort as you are GUARANTEED the unit you book online, what you see is what you get! Staying with us guarantees you a fantastic unit, access to pools and beaches just a few minutes from your room, Superhost guest services, and far more economical pricing.

The Neighborhood:
The Bayside Villas complex is situated directly next to downtown Captiva, but also within South Seas resort, giving guests a great taste of old and new Captiva.

Golf cart or car recommended

Other Things to Note:
Guests must sign a rental agreement prior to checking in.

Interaction with Guests:
We utilize a smartlock system, the code to which you will be given the night prior to arrival. An entry pass will be left at the South Seas Resort gatehouse for you, from which you will be directed to your unit. We provide guests with as much privacy as they would like, yet are available in an instant as needed to address any issues, large or small. We are available through phone, text, e-mail, and in person any time assistance is needed and are equipped to handle any guest request.

Perfect Getaway
We enjoyed everything about the place. We would definitely come back and stay here again. It’s a piece of paradise. Easy walking distance to the restaurants and beach. Its such a beautiful, high end place so in keeping with that theme my only recommendation is to replace the frying pan, as it was all scratched and maybe upgrade a couple of the beach towels (they were very thin and scratchy).

Captiva Calm
A favorite since childhood, this was our first trip back to Sanibel/Captiva since Hurricane Ian and although the island is still healing and rebuilding, we had a wonderful time exploring and relaxing. Our villa unit in SS was perfect! Newly updated, full amenities, a five min walk to the gulf and multiple pools! We enjoyed exploring the island again, DingDarling, dinner at Mucky Ducks and the farmer's markets on Sun./Tues.... all amazing!! Rosen Vacations mgmt was such a pleasure to work with and communicated throughout our stay for seamless check-in/out process, updates and useful info. Look forward to returning soon!

Nice spot but needs better cleaners
We enjoyed our week on captiva and were so lucky to visit the week before IAN. When we got to the condo, we reached for a glass to have a glass of wine and the glassware was dirty - hadn't been put in the dishwasher - red wine stains, finger prints and even mouth prints. We corrected the problem by running a load of all glassware and utensils but not the welcome we wanted. Had an issue with one of the showers and both showers had mildew that needed to be attended to.

Not worth the money
Unit showing its age except for new kitchen. Upholstered furniture in living room was worn and dirty. Floors gritty. Pans were dirty and needed to be scrubbed. Lamp shades in bedroom were dusty. Mold in corners of shower. Bedspread and shams were splotched with blood on both sides. Contacted host who had housekeeping change linens. Refunded cleaning fee. Not worth the money spent. Thankfully didn’t spend much time inside.

Weekend of Wedding Planning
This condo was in a perfect location for us to get everywhere in the resort and in town by bike! We enjoyed a weekend of experiencing the beach, pool and local restaurants while finalizing plans for a wedding at the resort this fall. It was just right for what we needed.

Great Location
Easy access to beach, big pool, and shops/dining. The kitchen was beautifully remodeled and the patio was spacious. Bathrooms were small and not as nice as the kitchen but got the job done. We had a maintenance issue and Mr. Rosen had it fixed within no time with great communication. Wonderful stay.

I thought the management company were on top of things. We had problems with one of the bikes and they were there right away to fix it. Love the 9 foot slider door to the screen in porch. We hope to be back in the future. Great memories. Thank you

Just okay
For the money we paid, the condition of the property definitely needs work. The view and location is fine. The dishwasher was in need of cleaning and servicing, as was the very leaky master toilet. The realtor, Palmer was nice, but the place needs serious attention or a much lower price.

Lovely end to the summer
This Villa is the perfect size and price for two people to enjoy a beach getaway. It's clean, cute, and has the amenities to make moving around the island easy and fun. The wagon with beach gear was perfect! Biking to Starbucks for breakfast was the perfect start to my day. Everyone on the South Seas Plantation was friendly and helpful. We used the store for lunches and snacks. Then thoroughly enjoyed dinners at The Bubble Room and R.C. Otters. Sunsets on Captiva beach fill the soul. We'll be back.

Captiva vacation with boyfriend
Rental process was quick and easy. Condo was clean and equipped with everything necessary (cooking supplies, beach gear, towels). The only thing we brought ourselves was a cooler for the beach which is necessary. Check in process was easy using a code to enter into the condo. It was difficult at first to find the 4000 building but that’s no fault to this rental just South Seas in general. The bikes were a huge plus we used them often to get into town for restaurants and to check out the manatees at Jensens. The pool was literally right next door and was perfect when to hang or just cool off. The only negative I had was that there was a door in the bedroom that was accessible from the outside that was able to be completely opened only stopped by a door jam. Again, I know this is South seas issue but a little freaky that someone is able to open your door and look in while your sleeping if they wanted. We just piled our suitcases in front to keep it from opening. All together the experience was great and we would definitely be back again.

great communication/well equipped
prompt replies with any comments/questions. the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. the bikes were the BEST amenity in our opinion! location was great to walk/ride to "downtown" and the beach! happy to not pay the resort fee for amenities we weren't going to use. Could use a good cleaning - my husband and I are pretty fastidious.

Location is great short walk to beach and pool . A big thing though is you need a wristband to use the South Seas facilities and access to the main pool restaurants and other property things. Even riding the trolley you need one . Go during off season you’ll enjoy the area much better too crowded during spring break restaurants and roads are crazy navigating the roads with bike riders golf carts are big and people walking all have no regard for a moving vehicle saw 2 bad car bike accidents during the week we were there this villa was in a quiet location
