Quick Verdict: South Seas vs Hyatt Regency Coconut Point Resort & Spa

When South Seas wins: choose South Seas if you prioritize private Gulf-front beach, island/boat-access experiences (marina, boat tours, shelling) and a setting spread across a protected 330-acre preserve with family and kids programming.

South Seas – Location

South Seas sits on 330 acres of Captiva Island with 2.5 miles of private Gulf-front beach and an on-site marina.

  • Reached by boat/ferry for the island portion; no cars on the property itself.
  • On-site marina and boat excursions to nearby islands and state parks; shelling and sunset walks are key draws.

  • Options suit families or groups needing multi-bedroom, kitchen-equipped villa-style accommodations.
  • Check-in is at the resort’s main address; some individual unit addresses differ from the main check-in location.

  • Key venues: Beach House (Gulf-inspired, beachfront), Redfish Grill (seafood), Harborside (Italian steakhouse), Scoops & Slices, Flippers and Tarpon Bar poolside.
  • Provisions market and Starbucks are open to the public; most dining outlets are restricted to resort guests, owners and Club Captiva members.
