About this property

Great Beach Views, Direct Access, Pickleball, New Kitchen & Heated Pool! Tower 3

Relax, rejuvenate and enjoy the scenery from floor to ceiling windows in our living room and master bedroom or our fully furnished lanai! The views from our 17th floor unit are truly breathtaking - see our photos for actual views. Entering our condo, you'll feel like you've been upgraded to oceanfront at a fancy hotel. There are sweeping unobstructed views of the gulf and beach from our lanai. We've furnished the lanai with high top bistro tables and chairs so there is no looking through the railing as you sip your coffee and eat your meals. We've rented before so we know what guests want. There is no cutting corners. Our condo is stocked with every extra and amenity you can think of for your comfort and pleasure, as well as ours, including pickleball equipment for four. Go ahead and compare. We've already hosted one couple married on the beach and returned for their one year anniversary and four honeymoon couples as a result of our romantic views and premium features. New kitchen renovation done September 1, 2020! For those who know South Seas, our entire kitchen is renovated and dividing walls removed. We've replaced most of our lighting with eco-friendly LED lighting. Recycling is available on the first floor of our building. Many guests take advantage of our great WiFi coverage to keep up with work by doing some remote work during their stay.

**Our unit is unique in that there is no looking out at parking lots and no looking past other buildings or through the trees - all you'll see are panoramic beach and gulf views from up high. Check out our photos and compare to other condos available so you can see what we mean. We're directly in front of Crescent and Tigertail Beaches, where they meet and the beginning of the Tigertail Nature Preserve. We're lucky to have one of the few units in our three wing tower where our lanai (balcony) is shaded until early afternoon. This was important to us. You can sit comfortably and enjoy your breakfast, lunch or a good book in the shade and cool breeze on the 17th floor as you enjoy the unobstructed views of the beach, gulf and nature preserve without baking in the heat of the sun.

We spared no expense on comfy beds and couches for lounging, 65 inch flat screen HDTV and Blue ray DVD player in the living room, flat panel TV's in the bedrooms, Hunter Douglas room darkening drapes in the bedrooms, FIOS, WiFi, Bluetooth stereo speakers in the living room, Keurig and Cuisinart drip coffee makers, blender, crock pot, toaster, microwave, every cooking utensil you can think of, multiple coolers, a BeachBub umbrella, four Tommy Bahama beach chairs, four wheeled beach cart, fold out beach table, plush bath towels, plenty of beach towels, binoculars, wine glasses and even a grapefruit knife and more.

If you are not familiar with South Seas Club it is a private gated community with direct beach access (be advised not all Marco Island condos have this). On arrival there is a $100.00 registration fee with our condo association which covers parking for one car. The club provides a private 55 acre luxury beachfront experience at less than half of what you would pay at 5 star hotels on Marco Island, plus: recreational activities which these hotels don't have, direct access to both beaches and the large nature preserve alongside Tigertail beach, which has some of the best sea shelling and birding in southwest Florida. There is an exercise room downstairs as well as 12 pickle ball courts, tennis courts, bocce, shuffleboard, boat slips for rent and a putting green. Marco Island is one of the best destinations in the U.S. for your Caribbean feel vacation.

At South Seas Club on arrival you'll drive through our security gate to an expansive resort with palm trees, manicured lawns and gardens. Park in our covered garage and enter our tower. You'll have direct beach access with a key through our private locked gate to the beach or you can head right down to our heated pool. It is not uncommon to see dolphins swimming by the shore. The beach by the shore also offers a great place to take a fitness walk in the morning to work off the prior day's indulgences. On the way back from the beach there are convenient stations as you come off the sand to rinse the sand off and wash off any sea shells you have collected.

The laundry room is conveniently located two doors from our condo unit. There are two large dryers and washers which are operated by an easy to use app on your smart phone. Given the close proximity, we simply return to our condo and return when the washer or dryer are finished. There is a trash chute conveniently located in the laundry room and the recycling is brought down to the first floor.

Just a short three block walk is Doreen's, one of the best breakfast places Marco Island has to offer, as well as Joey's and Sami's. Each has a great indoor/outdoor bar and both are popular pizza/pasta restaurants. There is also a bagel store. Make sure to stop and see our burrowing owls on your walk next to the South Seas Club entrance. The Esplanade restaurants, shops, marina and boardwalk are within a mile walk as are multiple restaurants, grocery stores, and souvenir/swimwear shops. The Esplanade offers complimentary valet parking as do many of the restaurants on Marco Island.

You can rent a pontoon boat from nearby Rose Marina and view the coastal waterway and see the dolphins or enjoy a few hours fishing. You can explore the Florida Everglades or take a speed boat to the Florida Keys. During the afternoon or evening you can go for drinks, lunch or dinner in one of our waterfront restaurants or Naples which is 20 minutes away. A round of golf is just minutes away at scenic award winning courses. Make sure to check out Naples Botanical Gardens with its boardwalk just 20 minutes away. A 2 hour drive to Miami to visit South Beach may be something you choose or you can make a shorter trip to other beautiful areas in south west Florida. There are a variety of seafood restaurants and other magnificent eateries on Marco Island and the entire region. Make this your vacation choice at anytime of year because the weather is always warm and wonderful.

PLEASE NOTE a maximum of 4 overnight guests are allowed. Thank you.

Amazing views!

We loved our stay in this condo. It was the perfect size for us and our two teenage daughters. The view was breathtaking. The condo was clean and stocked with everything we needed. The owner responded quickly to our questions. We went to the beach and the pool every day. There were so many restaurants within a 5 minute drive. I totally get why people stay here multiple times. We’re definitely coming back.

First time renting in Marco Island

We fell in love with the island and it started with Steve and Kim’s condo! Exceptional communication with owners prior to arriving. The unit was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed when we cooked in. Master bed was very comfortable as was the living room. The view from the 17th floor balcony was spectacular.. When it was chilly on the beach, the balcony was very sunny and warm. Fantastic restaurants all close by. Highly recommended! We got everything we expected.

Little piece of paradise

Lovely condo with beautiful views of the beach and water. Tastefully decorated. Literally supplied with everything you need for a vacation. The condo is like a home away from home...but better! Just bring your clothes and personal items. We buy groceries and cook for ourselves and the kitchen had everything needed to do that. The owners went above and beyond with beach supplies for their renters. Beach wagon, coolers of multiple sizes, chairs, towels, umbrella and toys. We had a few minor issues but Steve was easy to communicate with and responded in a timely manner. During our stay, we collected many shells, saw dolphins, a very large iguana and beautiful sunsets. Thank you, Steve and Kim, for opening up your condo to us. We'll be back. Hopefully sooner than later.

Exceeds expectations

I have very high expectations when I travel as it is something that I don't get to do very often and when I do I need to get out of it all I can. This beachfront stay was dreamy. First, the location is spectacular - 17th floor with a great shaded view of the Gulf at all times. The beach is immaculate- powder clean sand, not smelly, I can see my feet in the water, and no sea creatures present to bite or sting. Everyone, fellow travelers and residents, in the condo community is friendly. The condo is beautiful, cozy, and super clean. Black out shades tightly close, the air conditioner works, all top notch appliances are so nice to have at hand, and there are multiple pillows to choose from as I like an assortment of fluffy, firm, and flat. The interior design is special for a beach vacation. The hosts are easy to communicate with and always amply responded to questions. We traveled to Marco Island during what I would call the off season- super hot time in early July- the beach was quiet and restaurants, though still busy were easy to get into. We were seeking a slow motion laid back vacation and this fulfilled our needs. 10/10!!

Marco Island was wonderful

We completely loved our stay at Marco Island. Kim and Steve have a beautiful property, a lovely view, and a welcoming approach to visitors. Every necessity required for a beach vacation was available and accessible to us which allowed for a stress free week away. The ease to get around the complex, to the beach, the pool, gym, as well as to local eateries was likewise simple. We will definitely look to spend more vacation time at this property/location.

Beautiful Beach Condo

Beach view and access are important to us and this really delivered! I especially loved the lounger on the lanai for afternoon naps after spending mornings on the beach. The owner has a closet with a beach wagon, chairs, umbrellas, towels and even toys for the kids to play in the sand. It was great not having to bring any of that. We all enjoyed the super clean pool each day on the way back from the beach. Also loved that parking is so close to the elevator taking us up to the 17th floor condo. South Seas is a beautiful property. Hope to return.

Perfect Beach Condo!

We absolutely loved staying here. Clean and beautiful with anything you would need in the kitchen and for the beach. The balcony is shady and breezy and we spent most of our time out there when we weren’t at the beach or out to dinner. The beach is very wide but once you get to the water’s edge you’ll be happy you did! So many shells!! The owner communications really helped in planning and while we were there. Thank you, Steve and Kim for sharing your lovely home!

About the host

Hosted by Steve and Kim

Host profile image
Steve and Kim married in 2014 and honeymooned in the Amalfi Coast and Tuscany. We are fun loving 60-somethings who enjoy the beach, good food (especially seafood and Italian, which there is no shortage of in Marco Island), good conversation, live music, dancing, fishing, boating and Scrabble. We love walking the beach in Marco Island (Steve wonders does Kim have to stop and inspect every sea shell)? We work hard and find Marco Island the perfect respite to recharge.



Why they chose this property

We wanted to find a safe laid back beach area with a Caribbean island feel, to escape the New England winters, and wanted to stay in the continental U.S. We heard about Marco Island and made the trip. We were sold soon after coming over the bridge: the palm trees, people strolling and biking, and that beach! Everyone we've met have been so friendly and welcoming. Once we saw the sugary sand beach and the 17th floor view from the condo we found paradise. During our visit we saw a dozen other condo units and none compared to the luxury tropical resort feel of South Seas Club and the view from the 17th floor. We still get a thrill seeing dolphins swimming by the beach.

An hour sitting on our balcony gazing at the gulf and the beach is like 6 months of therapy. It is no wonder Marco Island is one of the top rated islands in the U.S. and the World. We hope like us you'll enjoy the scenery, serenity and pleasures of our condo and all that Marco Island has to offer.

What makes this property unique

The private security gate to South Seas Club community of buildings and manicured grounds immediately communicates you have arrived at an exclusive location. Until you have seen it, it is impossible to describe or photograph the incredible panoramic views of the gulf, beach, horizon, and sunsets from our condo. The long balcony has great furniture to sit and take in the views. Enjoy a morning cup of coffee, sit and read or just gaze around. All of the residents are so respectful of each other. You can hear from the balcony, the water lapping the shore. In the morning from the master bedroom you can just gaze at the gulf and beach right from the bed. This is truly a peaceful and pristine location to get away from it all and enjoy, the beach, sun and sand.
