    Tween Waters was the very first place on the islands my wife and I stayed. I think it was 1982. The next year we went to South Seas and we’ve been there ever since. We still love to go to the Olde Captiva House to eat, especially for breakfast! The canopy on the S-curve got destroyed in Hurricane Charley, but, it grew back! It probably will again. Thank you again for this terrific video!

    Good morning! Thanks for the videos and information. My wife and I are timeshare owners in the South Seas Island Resort on Captiva. If you'd like, I can send you the latest communication from the new owners, Timbers Resorts. It spells out their vision, construction timelines/goals and gives you an idea when the resort will be up and running.
    My family has been visiting Sanibel and Captiva for 30 years. We
    have seen several storms come through. We've also witnessed what it takes to return to pre-hurricane form. The foliage always comes back more beautiful than before, but some businesses will never return. It's nice to see the Old Captiva House at Tween Waters back so quickly. One of our favorite places to eat.
    Thanks again. The information from Timbers is detailed and is public information. Putting it on here would be good publicity for them. Their vision is a grand one.

    Thanks for the video. Sadly, I remember Captiva as a mostly undeveloped retreat. I visited the Mucky Duck when there was a ferry to the island and only a few residents. My grandparents owned the Mucky Duck; grandmother was the cook and grandfather managed the cottages where we stayed. Sad to see so much development. I will cherish the memories of a beautiful, unspoiled environment circa 1958 before “ecology” and “climate change” became the lexicon of a new era.

      @@TheSanibelCaptivaGuide Roy and Dorothy Wedekind. I don’t know how long they owned it-sometime in the 1950’s. My aunt Sarah Bailei, their daughter, met her husband there. John Bailey was a member of the family that donated some of there land for the Bailey-Matthews Reserve on Sanibel Island. My grandparents moved to Tennessee in the 1960’s and later returned to LaBelle, FL
