South Seas Serenity Coastal Luxury Beach Condo
About this condo rental
Located in Sanibel Island, this attractive condo for $598 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. This newly remodeled modern luxury condo is nestled in heart of Captiva, one of the premier vacation destinations in the Southwest Florida. Perfect for those who seek luxury, location and space. There are VRBO properties and there are South Seas Serenity Properties. We set ourselves apart by creating a 5 Star luxury experience while still having the space and quaintness of a VRBO property. HURRICANE IAN UPDATE: The property description has been updated post Ian and all restaurants, shops and descriptions are up to date. Please note: we are waiting for a part for our building elevator. We were originally told by the start of 2024 but it looks like it could be delayed so there is a chance the elevator will not be working at the time of your stay. We are located on the first floor but the building is elevated so you would have about 15 stair steps to the front door. Please also note that although our condo is in meticulous condition, the beach is as gorgeous as ever, our pool is open and much of the area has opened back up our area is also still very much recovering. There could still be some construction in the area and the vegetation is still healing. We are very much enjoying the area and our guests have been very happy (see reviews) but we want to be very transparent as to the recovery of the area so you know what to expect. We are local owners living just off the Island and go to inspect the condo constantly. We take pride in keeping it meticulously clean and have a fabulous management company, American Realty, located within walking distance to help provide this 5 Star Service. We feel confident you will be provided with the utmost service. When you rent a place it should look and feel more fabulous in person and your experience should be seamless and serene. American Realty is available during the week and 24/7 for emergencies. The owner also welcomes the guest to call anytime. Situated within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Rise in the morning and grab a coffee from the Starbucks located less than 1000 feet from the condo, take a short 7 minute stroll down the beach to Mucky Ducks for lunch or dinner or take a 10 minute walk to Village of Captiva that includes restaurants such as RC Otters, Green Flash, Mucky Ducks, Captiva Pizza, Cantina Captiva Food Truck or Keylime Bistro (coming back soon). For shopping, Ice cream and coffee in the Village you will find the Island General Store, Betty Boops (ice cream, cakes and coffee), Gold Parrot, Barracudas and the Beach Store. If that is not enough, rent our brand new Club Car Onward 6 Seater golf cart (based on availability) to venture out to the new Shipyard Restaurant (casual coastal modern), the new reimagined Crows Nest (for a high-end experience) and Old Captiva House (my personal favorite). I also recommend taking the boat ride from Captiva Cruises to Cabbage Key for the famous "Cheeseburger In Paradise" rumored to be what inspired Jimmy Buffet's song. Stylish and serene this condo offers professional design interiors to create a lavish and inviting coastal retreat for your ultimate vacation experience. Furnishings from Serena and Lily, One King Lane, William Sonoma, Restoration Hardware, Pottery Barn and Ballard's to name a few. Everything in the condo was completely redone including the kitchen, bathrooms, floors, woodwork, hurricane impact windows and sliding doors, light fixtures along all new bedding, furnishings and mattresses. Sleep in style and ultimate comfort for a complete serene experience. It could not be 5 Star without upgraded luxury linens and triple sheeted beds. The ensuite master bedroom has the ultimate in luxury comfort bedding with the top of the line high-end Tempur-Pedic Cooling Cloud Luxe Breeze mattress covered in luxury bedding completed with a plush mattress pad, top of the line silk filled duvet and triple sheeted for total comfort and cleanliness with luxury linens. The bed is designed to provide a cool, comfortable and cozy night's sleep. The guest bedroom offers the same luxurious experience with two Tempur-Pedic Cloud Luxe twin XL mattresses, luxury bedding and triple sheeted. We provide a variety of luxury pillows and fans in every room so your experience is quaint and relaxing. In the warm weather months the condo will maintain the perfect temperature with a brand new top of the line Trane Hyperion Air Conditioner. This unit is an open airy highly sought after end unit that provides plenty of windows, lighting, mirrors and light furnishings to bathe the room in natural light and provide stunning views of the nightly sunsets over the ocean view. For those who love to cook, the full kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, gorgeous finishes, beautiful quartz countertops and comes fully equipped for your vacation needs. We offer both a Keurig and a standard coffee maker so that you can make the coffee of your choice. A designer plush sleeper sofa with Tempur-Pedic topper is perfect for a relaxing movie night or to watch the game on the 82" Samsung 4K smart flat screen TV. The dining areas, including dining table for 6, outdoor and kitchen island seating, are a great option for finding the perfect spot to enjoy your meal while staring at the gulf. Watch the sunset from your private balcony with the direct ocean view. Just a short boardwalk to the beach.

We had a great time this past couple of weeks staying at Serenity Beach Villas. Our Host was super conscientious and always quick to
answer questions. The condo was beautifully decorated and maintained. Beds were very comfortable. Loved having so few people around. 3 Restaurants open in Captiva, from beachside to charming white tablecloth. to Mexican. A Happy Place in the Sun.

My husband and I stayed for 10 nights in this beautiful condo. Comfortable bed, stocked kitchen, comfy living room furniture, it met all our needs. It has been updated and the decor is very tasteful. Seaside beach feel for sure! The balcony has a wonderful view of the gulf and it made our morning coffee time relaxing and peaceful. Beach chairs and an umbrella are provided by the owners.
The downside was Ian. The hurricane destroyed a lot of the area and most of the amenities were not available to us. But that did not stop us from enjoying this condo. The condo is located in a complex in the South Seas Resort. The Resort is not open to the public yet, so it made our stay really quiet, not a lot of other people. The beach was pretty much ours, it was surreal but nice. đ
The owner Holly was a gem to work with. Everything that Holly could control was 5 star! Perfect condo, perfect location and ease of renting, all top notch.
There were a few restaurants open and we did eat at Doc Fords and Timbers. Both located on Sanibel. We ate at the Cantina Food truck and the Island Store had groceries. These were within walking distance. We did the Captiva Cruise to Cabbage Key and that was a lot of fun.
We will return to this condo in the future and look forward to seeing Sanibel/Captiva get back on track!

The home was beautiful and location to the beach was perfect. Beach supplies (chairs, umbrella) were provided. We could easily walk to restaurants. Captiva is a quiet beach town. The ocean was warm and saw dolphins daily.

Great Unit
Unit was clean, fully upgraded and came with everything you need including beach chairs, beach towels, beach toys, etc. The location was perfect for us as the pool was directly behind the building and along the walkway to the beach. Easy walk to the South Village area restaurants and shops. Would highly recommend and would stay there again if we come to the area in the future.

Beach Villa was just as pictured. Location is perfect for sunsets and quick
walk to the beach and Andy Rosse Lane restaurants. Tommy Bahama beach chairs and umbrella were just what we needed to enjoy days on the beach reading band watching the dolphins and manatees swim by.

We stayed here for a week before Xmas. It is a perfect location to the beach and pool and island shops and restaurants. The unit is nicely decorated and well equipped. The beds were very comfortable. A few small basics were missing and would have been helpful (like salt and pepper, a wine opener and the fitted sheet didnât fit the mattress so it wouldnât stay on the bed when we slept) but really it had everything you need. WiFi worked very well. Overall, we really enjoyed it and the property manager was excellent to work with.

Beautiful property
The condo was beautiful. It was clean and pretty well stocked. The beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the stay. Holly was very flexible with our requests and responsive. Great location. Just skip, hop and a jump from the beach. The umbrella, chairs and little side tables made for awesome beach days. Shelling was fantastic especially after a rain. We used the common laundry facilities. They were clean and easy to use (took credit card). Overall it was a fantastic place to stay. I would recommend for family of older kids, just because I wouldn't want to worry about furniture etc with littles.

Excellent place! Clean, updated and very comfy. Perfectly located within very very short walk to beautiful beach. Swimming pools are even closer! Short walk to a restaurant and a provisions store. Within very short drive of several very good places to eat. We would highly recommend!

I was impressed by the cleanness, the linen and towels were as white as it could be, it reminded me of the quality of high end hotels, not a spec of mildew in the bathrooms, not a spider web in the balcony. The decorations are cohesive, through the entire house, and you could tell the owner put a lot of thoughts and effort in this property. The beach access and one of the swimming pools was just a few feet away.
New rentals should be aware that some VRBO rentals come with some condiments in kitchen, but I have been told this is not legal in Florida, so be aware to bring your own.
Overall, I would recommend this property and I would give it the highest rating possible!

Captiva Island and South Seas Plantation are beautiful! Was a great trip, and the condo made it that much more enjoyable! The location was excellent, the beds were fantastic (which is a huge requirement for me). It makes your vacation difficult to enjoy if you are unable to sleep comfortably. The unit could use additional pots and pans as well as a few kitchen utensils like a garlic press, whisk, rubber spatulas. Also, limited pots (more saucepans) and pans (large frying pan needs to be replaced) and an additional large stock pot. Overall a great place and well stocked! Wonderful Owner and would rent again.

Resort Vacation
This is a quaint place to stay. We loved being able to view the spectacular sunsets right from our balcony. It's location in the resort is next to the path leading directly to the beach. It is also across from the small pool which was very popular for families with young children. Unfortunately, the property across the hall was being renovated during our stay and we had constant jack hammering and other loud noises, deafening at times, daily. And neither of the showers/tubs drained properly. As charming as the place was, I would not stay there again.

We loved it!
It was an absolutely gorgeous week. South Seas Serenity was extremely clean and convenient to the beach and restaurants. The unit is very appealing with its coastal decor and furnishings. Kitchen is stocked and happy hour-ready. Loved the sunset view from the lanai. Very pleased with our decision to rent this property for our getaway.
