"Set on an old Key lime plantation on the northern tip of Captiva Island, this exclusive, lushly landscaped resort is far removed from the mainland strip-mall hurly-burly."
Gayot Gayot
"The pricey seclusion and natural beauty of this resort attracts the rich and laid-back, as well as families who rent the up to four-bedrooms homes for reunions." Full review

"Swimming pools (one with two tubular slides), private restaurants and shops... a nature center stocked with live animals, a family interactive center, and a 9-hole golf course." Full review

"The beach may be the main attraction at the Harbourside Hotel at South Seas Island Resort and is a short stroll away, but those who don’t have their sea legs can enjoy the resort’s pool complex, which boasts waterslides and a family interactive center, as well as a nine-hole, Gulf-front golf course" Full review
