Thank you for the wonderful review! I am so glad to hear you found the condo immaculate and well-appointed. We take a lot of pride in the details, so it’s great to know the amenities and the beautiful setting helped make your stay special.
We would love to host you again for another relaxing getaway!
Everything was easy from access to property, to use of rented equipment, to access to host. Immediate response when we contacted the host, then found the info in the guide book that was provided. Beach access is a couple minutes walk to beauty. Awesome sunrises and sunsets. We would absolutely return!!

had issues with TVs, some maintenance issues, they were resolved (somewhat) but communication about when that was to happen was minimal, we were out for a bit and came back to worker, just a bit surprised we were not notified?

Thank you for the four-star review and for your feedback. We are glad we were able to address the TV and maintenance issues during your stay, but we sincerely apologize for the lack of communication regarding the timing of those repairs.
Providing a seamless experience is our goal, and we completely understand why being surprised by a maintenance worker upon your return was frustrating. We aim to keep our guests fully informed, and it’s clear we missed the mark on notifying you in this instance. We are reviewing our internal communication process with our maintenance team to ensure that, moving forward, every guest is given a clear heads-up before anyone enters the property.
We appreciate your patience and your help in helping us improve our service. We would love the opportunity to host you again for a truly seamless five-star stay in the future.
It was a beautiful location with beautiful views. The construction behind the unit was unexpected but since we woke up early and was busy during the day, it really didn't affect us.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the beautiful location and views.
We apologize for the unexpected construction. While we do try to inform our guests of any potential disruptions, sometimes we're not given advance notice ourselves. We're happy to hear it didn't impact your stay and we look forward to hosting you again in the future!
The condo was clean and in a good location. Thanks to the owner for making this the only good part of our stay. We spent almost 2,000 for two nights including golf cart rental and were unable to enter any of the restaurants or use the golf course. This is a "South Seas" problem and pretty embarrassing to be told to leave a brand new restaurant because we did not have "wristbands". We were there for a wedding hosted by South Seas and will never stay there again because of their ridiculous policies towards VRBO rentals. We were forced to leave the resort just to get a drink at RC Otters where they actually accept cash and credit cards! South Seas is now considered a joke by all of us who stayed there and none of us will ever return.

Thank you so much for the 5-star rating and for your kind words regarding the cleanliness and location of the condo. I am genuinely glad that I could provide a positive sanctuary for you during what sounds like a very frustrating weekend.
I was incredibly disappointed to hear about your experience with the resort’s current 'wristband' policies. It is heartbreaking to hear that guests attending a wedding on-site were turned away from amenities and restaurants. Please know that as an individual owner, I share your frustrations; we advocate constantly for the resort to improve their accessibility and consistency for all guests.
I’m glad you found a warm welcome at RC Otters—they are local favorites for a reason! Thank you again for choosing my home and for recognizing the effort I put into my rental, even when the resort's policies fell short. I wish you much better travels in the future.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're absolutely thrilled that you had a "loving stay" once again.
It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your time at our property. We strive to create a memorable experience for our guests, and we're so happy that we achieved that for you.
We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
The condo was very clean and comfortable for our family. It was 2 adults and 2 teenagers and we had plenty of room. The location was quiet. We would stay here again.

The condo was fine. No extras but sufficient. Clean, etc. The shower kept breaking and the location was OK except that we were told it was an easy walk to town; it was NOT by any stretch of the imagination. Pool was great. Beds were comfortable.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback on your recent stay at South Seas Villas. We're glad to hear that you found the condo clean and the beds comfortable. We apologize for the issue you experienced with the shower; our maintenance team has been notified to ensure it is fully repaired. We also appreciate you bringing the walking distance to town to our attention. The listing has been updated to provide a more accurate description of the location.

The location of this condo is amazing. In the morning you can look out your front door to view the sun rise and then in the evening you can look out the back door and see the sun set. The marina is right out your back door where we saw a

Thank you for your kind words! We are thrilled that you enjoyed the stunning sunrises and sunsets from your condo. The marina is indeed a great place to watch the boats come and go. We hope you had a wonderful stay and that you will consider returning to our property in the future.
Clean unit, great view, a bit hard to find, South Seas is a big area, easy to get in to unit once located,communication was good, would be nice to advise that you will need to provide some basic products, i.e coffee tea etc. also there are places to eat quite close but we were not allowed to use them. Pool needed cleaning before we arrived, was cleaned second day after arriving.

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed and valuable feedback! We are thrilled to hear you found the unit clean, enjoyed the great view, and appreciated our good communication.
We sincerely apologize for the issues you encountered, and we want to address them directly:
Arrival & Directions
We are sorry the property was hard to find within the large South Seas community. This is frustrating, and we are immediately updating our pre-arrival guide with clearer directions and landmarks to make the initial check-in smoother for future guests.
Unit Provisions
We apologize for the lack of basic staples like coffee and tea. As a self-catered rental, we provide initial essentials, but we realize it would be helpful to clearly advise guests about bringing personal kitchen items. We will update our welcome information to set this expectation better.
Amenities & Pool
We understand the disappointment regarding the nearby resort restaurants. Unfortunately, as a privately owned condo, guests are restricted by the Homeowners' Association from accessing some resort-managed amenities. We are clarifying this limitation further in our listing description.
Finally, we are truly sorry about the condition of the pool upon your arrival. We are disappointed our maintenance schedule lapsed, and we appreciate you letting us know so we could have it cleaned the second day. We are using your feedback to reinforce our maintenance team's pre-arrival checklist.
Thank you again
The location was perfect, so close to beach and on marina. Could wake up, go on porch and listen and see manatees. The condo complex was quiet and everyone was kind. The laundry facilities were clean and easy to use. The pool was great. The condo itself was spotless and had everything we needed for a wonderful stay.i would book here again without hesitation!

We also appreciate your kind words about the quiet and friendly atmosphere of the condo complex. It's wonderful to know that you felt welcomed and at ease.

Overall it was fine but it was far away from most amenities. Close to water but not a beach. Hall bath shower was broken
We checked into our Captiva South Seas Marina Villa unit 704 the afternoon of Friday, October 24.Great! The 2 BR, 2 bath Villa 704 was certainly enough space for my wife and me (I enjoyed having my own bathroom when getting ready for the day). In fact, the unit would accommodate a family of 4 without issue. It’s conveniently located on the north end of the resort with a short walk to Sunset Beach, South Seas pool and South Seas restaurants. Everything in the unit appears to be recently fresh and remodeled including new kitchen appliances. The screened-in lanai overlooking the Marina was perfect for breakfast and relaxing in the evening. Also, the fact that it is located on the first level means only a short walk up a few stairs with luggage. The private pool was also fantastic; very clean, refreshing and welcoming. Unit 704 also provided beach towels for us! We give this unit 5 gold stars!
We were very happy with our stay. When we arrived the roomWas cleaned and they allowed us early access. We had a couple snags but they remedied them quickly. We found the property comfortable and had everything we needed. Our only complaint would be that the cleaning people came at 1015, check out was 11. We felt very rushed to get out, they were standing at the door. We had every intention to be out at 11 but 45 minutes early really rushed us.

Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted you were happy with your stay and appreciated the clean unit and early access. We're also glad we were able to quickly resolve the snags you encountered.
We sincerely apologize for the unexpected arrival of the cleaning staff. We understand how that could make you feel rushed. Please accept our apologies for that. To clarify, our standard check-out time is 10:00 AM, not 11:00 AM. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
We're glad you found the property comfortable and well-equipped. We hope to welcome you back for another relaxing stay.
We were in town for a family wedding on Sanibel Island, which was a short drive from the unit. The property was very clean, had a great view of the marina, and it was within walking distance to the beach. We saw manatees and dolphins every day! We are a family of 5 with 3 adult children. There was plenty of room for all of us with the sofa bed. It was nice to sit in the covered patio and watch the water. There were no boats and a lot of construction going on due to all the hurricane damage. The noise was minimal. The kids utilized the beach gear voucher and 2 bikes, an umbrella, and a cooler with ice packs were delivered and ready to use upon arrival. The keypad made entry very easy. We would highly recommend this unit. Thank you for sharing your property with us. We really enjoyed our stay.

What wonderful feedback! We're absolutely thrilled to hear that our unit was the perfect base for your family wedding on Captiva Island. It sounds like you really made the most of the marina view and enjoyed spotting manatees and dolphins—that's always a highlight!
We're so glad the unit comfortably accommodated your family of five and that you found plenty of space, even with the sofa bed. It's fantastic to know you appreciated the covered patio and the convenience of the keypad entry. We're also happy the beach gear voucher and bikes enhanced your stay, providing everything you needed for fun in the sun.
We truly appreciate you recommending our unit and hope to welcome you back again soon!
The whole purpose of our trip was to enjoy South Seas resort, the pool, etc. Kids were excited as we haven’t been since the hurricane hit. I booked this property (we have stayed in marina villas before) only to find out with new ownership, amenities (i.e. using the pool) are not included with this listing. We tried to speak with anyone we could, pay for day passes to use the pool, etc. and no one was willing to help. I understand a portion of the responsibility falls on me for not having someone go through the entire rental agreement but the lack of customer service we experienced on top of disappointment soured the trip. We made this trip for the amenities. Had we known they weren’t included, we would have booked elsewhere. The place itself was great, but I want others to be aware that if you are hoping to utilize the pool, beach chairs, restaurants on South Seas, it’s not available here.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We understand your disappointment that the South Seas Resort amenities were not available as you expected.
However, we want to emphasize that the limited access to resort amenities is clearly disclosed in our listing description. We understand that access to the resort's facilities is important to some guests, and we make every effort to provide accurate information to allow for informed booking decisions.
It's also important to clarify that we are not affiliated with the South Seas Resort staff. While we strive to provide helpful information, we do not have control over the resort's policies or access regulations.
We regret that you experienced difficulty in finding a solution regarding day passes. Unfortunately, access policies are determined by the resort management.
While we understand your frustration with the amenity situation, we feel that a 2-star review is unfair given our efforts to disclose this information upfront. We are pleased to hear that you found the property itself to be great.
We value all feedback and will continue to review our listing description to ensure it is as clear as possible regarding the available amenities.
