South Seas Island Resort

The original 1898 160-acre homestead of home to George Washington Carter and his family at the north tip of Captiva Island has changed significantly over the years. After a terrible hurricane in 1921, it became a key lime plantation. In 1942 it welcomed its first vacation guests. Today South Seas Island Resort is a 330-acre resort with a ride range of accommodations including hotel rooms, timeshares, beach and marina villas, and private beach homes. In addition to its 465 units, it has 2.5 miles of private white-sand beaches, 10 tennis courts, 8 outdoor swimming pools, 4 restaurants, and a 9-hole golf course.
