South Seas Island resort has been part of my family's traditions for over 25 years. When it came to picking a location for our wedding weekend, South Seas was our easiest decision. From our first meeting with Malissa, we knew this would be the best place to host our friends and family. Malissa was our South Seas contact and she made the entire experience so incredible! When we needed flexibility to move all of our events outdoors due to COVID, she helped to make our wedding even more amazing than our original plan. The resort has so many incredible locations to host multiple events. We got married right on the beach at Sunset Beach and then our guests traveled in the iconic blue resort trolley to our cocktail hour and reception on King's Crown Lawn. The best part of South Seas is that you have the ability to host multiple events at the resort. We hosted a welcome party and dinner on the beach under the stars and a farewell brunch on the top deck of the resort's waterfront pool. Our gue...

If you are looking for a beautiful beach location that is safe (COVID) and fun for all of your guests, South Seas is amazing!

South Seas was a magical, perfect place for my husband and I to get married for many reasons. Hands down, there is no better private beach setting than Sunset Pointe. No one observed our ceremony except the loved ones we invited and the dolphins in the Gulf of Mexico. The tropical landscape and one-in-a-million sunset we had the night of our wedding proved we made the best choice. There are so many venue spaces to choose from and the new Sunset Pavilion was just what we were looking for- a classy, air-conditioned indoor space with a beautiful deck and lawn for our guests to enjoy the fresh air and get the perfect sunset shot. Many have said our pictures look like they can’t be real, but that’s just the undeniable beauty of South Seas and Captiva Island. The food was fantastic, service was incredible, and there is so much on-site entertainment we knew that our guests would be able to have a memorable vacation. From the moment we arrived as Bride and Groom, everything was stress-free... Read more and first class. We were able to relax and enjoy the venue’s amenities knowing that our events were in good hands and were ready to be executed to perfection. South Seas is the most picturesque Florida beach resort that we look forward to getting to celebrate our anniversary at for years to come.

Malissa was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was very responsive and even moved our site the day of to give us a little more privacy. The resort is beautiful and gave us everything we wanted for our wedding.

South Seas resort exceeded my expectations. The rooms are clean and have great views. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your stay. I am counting down the days until I can return!

We recently had a sunrise elopement in south seas resort, at sunset cove. It was just perfect, we are already planning our return for our anniversary. We are from the UK so was a little worried initially about planning etc, but as soon as Malissa got in touch with us we were put at ease straight away. She was very knowledgable, and very responsive to emails. She called us as soon as we arrived at the resort to go over everything, and welcome us. On the day she had a very Calming nature, and made sure everything went to plan. I would definitely get in touch with Malissa if you're planning a wedding at south seas! She's the best!

This venue was beyond amazing! There was a slight issue after Hurricane Irma hit, but they went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable! All of our guests had an amazing time, and we're even planning an annual trip with everyone back to South Seas!

My husband and I got married earlier this month at Sunset Cove on the beach and held our reception outside at King's Crown Lawn. It was absolutely perfect and everything we had envisioned fell into place due to the planning and coordination with Rhonda. We visited the resort late last year and knew immediately that this was the place we wanted to get married. Rhonda assisted us with planning and coordinating every step of the way, she answered all of our questions- big and small and helped guide us thorught the entire process. The setting of the ceremony and the reception are unparalleled, if you are looking for a beautiful setting, this is it. Our friends and family loved the resort and plan to return in the future, as do we. Thank you Rhonda and South Seas for making our day so special and beautiful.

We got married at South Seas in May and it was even more than I ever imagined! Rhonda was amazing to work with and JoAnn was as well. All of our guests enjoyed the resort and some even extended their stay. They were willing to negotiate with us which was really nice. The food was amazing and the venue we used (Kings Crown Lawn) was absolutely beautiful! I would recommend this venue to anyone whether you are having a small or large wedding. It is by far the best resort on the island. There is a trolley on the resort so for guests flying there is no need for a rental car! We will for sure be going back at our anniversary!

Outstanding in every way. Couldn't have been treated better.

South Seas as a venue, is absolutely stunning! I have been vacationing at South Seas since I was a little girl and always dreamed about getting married there one day. We had our rehearsal dinner and ceremony outside on the beach and Kings Crown Lawn respectively, with our reception inside Kings Crown. To say our special day was a dream come true, is an understatement! What made our day even better….was getting to work with our wedding coordinator Kelsey. She literally made the impossible, possible (and multiple times!). Words cannot describe how amazing she truly is. She is kind, sweet, calming, patient and professional. I could not dream of planning our wedding without her and I know our wedding would not have been the same without Kelsey. I only wish all brides were lucky enough to work with Kelsey and I cannot thank her enough for everything she did for my husband and I before, during, and after our wedding!

No doubt in saying South Seas is located in one of the most gorgeous locations in Florida. But your wedding day is so much more than that. It’s a day you expect things to run smoothly and as YOU planned. First of all my wedding started more than 30 minutes delayed due to them not communicating properly with vendors and not getting the trolley going on time. They decided to do EVERYTHING their way on my wedding day. Nothing was set up as requested and agreed upon, service was HORRIBLE so bad that my guests ate dry salads (no dressing) and no one who was dancing had cake passed out to their seat. My overpriced 3 course meal turned into a 1 course meal. One of my guests was locked in the outdoor bathroom for 3 HOURS ! & they ended up accidentally locking her in from the outside since they didn’t check or knock to see if anyone was inside. I did my best to not let anything get to me on the day of my wedding. But man was that hard. And following the wedding it’s been a month and we ... Read moreare still trying to come to a conclusion. Truly, spare yourself the headache and heartache of having to deal with an unprofessional venue. For the amount I paid to have my wedding here I expected MUCH better service and coordination on their end.

The South Seas was truly a magical place to have our destination wedding. Malissa was fantastic to work with and really worked with us to customize the event to what we wanted. We made it a beach vacation for our family and friends, and everyone raved about the resort, the rooms and the entire experience. We were told by many that it was the best destination wedding and overall jut best wedding they had ever been to. We can't wait to come back to celebrate something else!

Our wedding weekend was perfect! We had a welcome dinner, ceremony/reception and farewell breakfast. The set up of nearly time nibbles in our get ready rooms was great. They gave us a huge beach house to use for the day which we used for our first look. All our guests had an amazing time. They were very accommodating to special requests. Captain Ed with catering went beyond our expectations. Our money was well spent and we came in under budget. DJ Dan and Dominic were easy to work with. My only complaint is the resort seemed to be on island time with communication. They wanted to move our events indoors due to risk of rain but the weather held out. This resort is so beautiful. We can’t wait to go back for our anniversary.

We had a number of challenges with our wedding planning. A fluctuating guest list and a tropical storm were two of the main issues. The staff at South Seas was incredible, especially Lexie. We couldn't have achieved our vision without her. She offered alternatives and advice in order to make our wedding day perfect!
