I input on line was for a different unit owned by the same person. She told me that unit was booked. Then she switched me to another unit she owned without my agreement. I was charged by vrbo and had no choice.
The unit I wanted was larger and had two bedrooms with king size beds. The unit I was placed in had one bedroom with king size bed, one with twins..not what I wanted for my friends, but I had no choice. I did not pick the unit was charged and could not get a refund.
The elevators do not work so you have two carry everything up and down two flights of stairs. At 8 am drilling and sawing in unit upstairs.
Not relaxing. The unit is lovely. However there are some flaws. Be prepared. Eventually South Seas with be repaired from Ian.....but it is not yet.

Great location. Short walk to beach. Captiva beach the best. Forget Sanibel. Great shelling and clear water. 3 minute walk from condo.
Condo was clean with everything needed. Comfortable king bed.
The AC new and quiet! Several great pools to use.
There was construction going on at South Sea re hurricane fixes. WE where at beach all day so not bothered.
Kim was great at communicating.

We booked this trip in January and received the information at that time. We had 3 trips between the the time we booked this trip and the time we actually went on this trip. We received the check-in information with all of the other information in January. By the time July came, we forgot. At the airport in Florida, I sent a message asking about the process and received, "as per the documents sent to you. . . I will resend the documents you misplaced." Not the warm fuzzy vibe we have come to expect from Vrbo, but a very quick response.
The property appears clean; however, sticky dishes were put away and we had to wash everything prior to use. The dishwasher is not effective. Netflix, Disney, and other apps are not included. Both bedrooms have DVD players that do not work. The outside of the refrigerator is rusty, wallpaper is peeling off the walls, paint is peeling off the ceiling, and some of the furniture has been well used.
All of these shortcomings can be overlooked, but we gave this property 3 stars because of the mattress in the primary bedroom. It is the worst bed. We had difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, and both developed back pain that continued following our trip.

Wonderful view and had everything we needed for an amazing vacation. Appreciated accurate tips given on email about restaurants and shopping.

A big draw to the place was the sleeping arrangements. The lounge chair in the living room was where one of us was going to sleep for health reasons. The chair was broken, and seemed like it was broken for awhile. The handle of the lanai door was broken off, again off for some time. The picture from the lanai was a similar view but I think was taken from another condo just to the right of the one we rented. Enough information was not given concerning SSP before you paid the fees. Would we go back to this location? No {also refrigerator was extremely rusty and there were no dishtowels, wa;ll paper in bathroom was coming off, the lounge chair on the lani was also broken.)

Clean easy access, screened in porch was excellent, nice having elevators to get your luggage up to your floor.

Nice place for a short beach getaway!
Proximity to the beach and the pool made this a great stay! The owner provides many items to use on the beach. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had all we needed to cook some meals. There wasn’t much cabinet space for pantry items but we made it work!

The property was a great location, close to the beach and the main area of Captiva (Mucky Duck). Only thing I would change is the master bedroom's mattress was well worn not comfortable to sleep on.

Great resort, clean room with nice views. check in process needs work
The unit was as advertised and the resort is a great place to vacation. Two draw backs, WiFi signal was very weak and the check in process was a little clunky. The unit owner was very responsive to mitigate check in issues.

Very nice property. Great getaway for the family.
Beautiful outdoor views. Just a short walk through the property to the beach. The swimming pool was just a few steps away. The condo itself was fully equipped for our needs.

This is a great place to stay on this amazing island.
Brighter LED lights would be welcome in several locations to ease reading at night. Two of the chairs and the coffee table need to be fixed or updated as they had previously been damaged.

Very easy check in and check out. Will definitely look into renting this condo again in the future.

Captiva Get-Away
We enjoyed our stay at this unit. It was clean and comfortable and well supplied. It was close to the beach and other amenities. We enjoyed going to the Bubble Room for lunch and the Captiva Wildlife cruise where we saw a lot of dolphins and watched them ride in the wake of the boot. Otherwise it was rest and relaxation. The only regret was that we had to leave.

We arrived on October 3, 2021 to ongoing beach dredging directly in front our beach front condo. The owners and managers HAD to be aware of this activity when we rented the condo on September 15, 2021 and rented the condo to us anyway. The bedding was filthy, the furniture broken down and dirty and the photos of the exterior were extremely outdated (2012) giving a false impression of the beach view. When I contacted the Vrbo number I was told "unfortunately they only managed the property for the owners." All beach accesses were closed with DANGER signs. The heavy equipment, diesel fumes and beeping noises continued day and night and we were unable to sit on our balcony with the misleading view to watch the sunsets. We arrived Sunday at 4:00 pm and abandoned onTuesday at 12:45 pm. I lay blame on the owners and Vrbo for this unacceptable rental experience. Vrbo had an opportunity to set things right when I contacted them on October 5, 2021 but the answering agent took no action other than to pass the buck to the owners rather than contacting the owners about such a serious issue. We will take issue with the owners separately for all the misleading information they provided. It is my understanding Vrbo manages several condos on the South Seas Plantation property, so renters beware of misleading information and no service by Vrbo if you get scammed. we would be happy to provide photos, but this email response does not allow attachments for photos.
We realize you haven't had an opportunity to correct this situation until now and await your response.

Great place to stay
We enjoyed this condo and it was just what we needed for our stay. Directions on how to find the place and the address were unclear if you have never been to captiva, but it was an easy place to get to the beach and enjoy the island

Great Location!
Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much! It's our 3rd trip to Captiva and we love the area. The property was very clean and the location was perfect, as it's just a short walk to the beach. The condo itself could use some updates. The coffee table in the living room was broken, and the couch had a noticeable stain. We were told there were beach things we could use such as a cooler and beach chairs. We did not use the cooler because it had mold inside. We did use the 2 beach chairs, but one was almost broken. The threads at the seam were pulling apart and anyone heavier than me (130 pounds) would likely have gone right through the chair. It was also confusing that we were not able to rent the chairs on the beach from the resort. This was not communicated clearly. The check-in and check-out was the easiest and best I have ever experienced! We will be back and will consider staying at this property in the future.

Captivating time at Captiva!
Very smooth process overall! Check in was a breeze, very clean apartment, spacious and my family was very comfortable. Great location and views. The only things to mention that the appliances and utensils showed some wear and tear, and the wifi on the unit is iffy but that was expected we came to disconnect. I would definitely go back!

Wonderful Celebration
We celebrated our 40th anniversary at the same property we honeymooned. Still a very special place. This condo was wonderful. Had everything that was needed. And we could watch the sunset from the living room or the lanai. The text that we received before we arrived told us everything we needed to know. The restaurant suggestions were very helpful. We would definitely come again.
