South Seas Resort is HUGE and has a combination of homes, condos, townhomes, timeshares, hotel, etc.

I think the timeshares are in 6 buildings.

The timeshares are:

Harbourview Villas
Plantation Bay Villas
Plantation Beach Club
Plantation House
South Seas Club
The Cottages at SSP

Great visual. We tried to tour the grounds last December but they wouldn't let us on the property. I loved everything about the island. Hopefully, we'll get a trade there one year.

We were last at South Seas in summer 2004, just before Hurricane Charley blew through. My kids were 13 and 10 at the time and enjoyed the pool, fishing, boating, tennis lessons (which they never had before), on site fishing "camp" for a 1/2 day, etc. We'd like to go back some day to appreciate the rebuild. Are exchanged units even available, or are owners using or renting them? What are your experiences with how many TPUs it takes to get in at various times throughout the year?

We tried for two years to find weeks that would work for us, and nothing. The sister resort in Sanibel did pop up a couple times. There is an active south seas owners site and I jinks most people use or rent. It's a rare example of timeshares that have increased in value and have reasonable MF. We rented an early December week for $1000 for a 2br/Ba PBC unit.

Although no longer in active sales, there's a RE office on site that specializes in SSR and Captiva properties. Sure they could get you past the gate :)
