The menu is seafood driven and Gulf of Mexico inspired. You will find dishes that hail from locations surrounding the gulf from Central America to Louisianna, Florida and places in between. Think Red Snapper Veracruz, Florida Black Grouper, Seared Diver Scallops and more.

Land lubber items include a decadent Creamy Creole Chicken Penne, hanger steak, Cuban flatbread and meatless burrito.

The cocktails are tropical inspired with colorful combos of fruits and spirits. You'll also find a creative mocktail menu.

The restaurant is bright, with stunning blue murals and a large bar in the center. Each seat offers a view of the beach. Floor to ceilling garage door windows open to the beach when the weather allows.

The Beach House also has covered outdoor seating. Beyond the deck are cozy Adirondak chairs in the sand, firepits, hammocks, games like corn hole and more. It's a great space to hang out with a cocktail before or after dinner.

However, the best part of the Beach House is the vantage point for viewing the brilliant Captiva Island sunsets. The food, the drinks, the service, the views...it's a magical place.

There is still a lot of construction and repair work on Captiva and South Seas. Signs of hurricane damage are still quite prevalent in some areas. However, most of the resort is up and running. The beach villas are remodeled and gorgeous inside. Consider a staycation to reset and recharge before season kicks in.

NOTE: The Beach House is open to resort guests and members of Club Captiva only
