At the Harborside Bar & Grill, this delectable lobster
and pasta creation delighted our taste buds.
Captiva Island is west of Fort Myers, just beyond its sister island
of Sanibel. It has a variety of guest rooms, villas and waterfront
private homes. We stayed in the South Seas’ Harbourside guest
rooms overlooking Pine Island Sound and the Yacht Harbor and
Marina. These luxurious guest rooms were ideal for us, although
larger groups might prefer a one- to three-bedroom villa with a
full kitchen for longer stays. There are also private homes and
cottages with two to six bedrooms that offer full housekeeping
service.
There are many dining options at the resort. We ate lunches
at The Pointe, located next to the pool complex, where we
enjoyed casual but creative cuisine. At the Harborside Bar &
Grill, we enjoyed seafood-centric offerings and artisan cocktails.
In addition, there is the Crooked Snook Tiki Bar near the pool
area that overlooks Pine Island Sound; Scoops and Slices, a
1950s-themed diner; and Altitudes Beach Bar and Latitudes Food
Shack, providing Mexican food-inspired casual fare and live music
at Sunset Beach; Captiva Provision Company, a gourmet market
.
