Cosy retreat

Loved the views and the balcony at the Captain's Quarters. Was grateful for a previous traveler's advice that an eye mask would be helpful, as the curtains don't block out the long Alaska daylight at all. This is very cosy/compact and the kitchen area only really suitable for snacks, not much in the way of crockery and washing up a bit tricky in the bathroom sink after eating. But overall for a single traveller it was just what I needed as I mostly at out or got takeaway. Would recommend.

Amazing view

This place has such an amazing view. Very comfortable place to wake up in. Have the best view to sit and have a cup of coffee and start your day. The only thing I would change is maybe a little bit more soundproofing from the clients downstairs. The first evening there were some louder clients downstairs. Understandably there's nothing the host can really do about it. Just unfortunate some people are louder than others.

You can't beat the view or the location. I loved listening to the clanging of the buoy in the bay which reminded me of church bells. Thanks!

Staying at Capitans Quarters was so much fun as we could see the fishing boats coming in an out. The place is very nice and cozy and close to restaurants and other activities. My husband and I certainly enjoyed it.

Awesome

The check in process is the easiest there is. We were extremely happy with the views and the cleanliness of our rental. The only negative I can say is we didn't get to spend more time there. We will definitely be booking this place many more times.

Stay: 3 nights, late July Who: couple, late 40s Rating: 3-4 stars POSITIVES: - Clean! - Host is quick to respond and to addresses your concerns. - Location is great (easy, safe ~15 min walk to downtown Kodiak, quick drive to Safeway/Walmart and ~9-10 mins drive to ADQ). - Parking is super-convenient to your unit. - The view is nice but, even better, the back"yard" is really quiet/serene so sitting on the balcony is peaceful. NEGATIVES: - Really odd floor layout which is not at all conducive to privacy, convenience, relaxing or even really enjoying the view (from indoors). - Noise from downstairs units undermines privacy. Owners live right downstairs and we often heard them speaking loudly on speaker phone. This constant reminder that there are people through a very thin floor took away our sense of privacy. Also, we could hear lots of noise from the rental unit directly below. Someone was banging/slamming and dragging things early on Saturday morning; Host's unapologetic response: "Probably downstairs guests scrambling for airport". It ruined our Saturday morning. - No shade/curtain on large glass panel on front door so anyone that walks up to the unit can see straight into your space through to balcony. - Furniture is uncomfortable: deck chairs are for sitting (not relaxing), mini sleeper sofa takes up a huge amount of floorspace but not comfortable for sitting (it slopes weirdly), rolling kitchen countertop too crowded to be used as a table, mattress is too soft.

Breathtakingly Beautiful

This room is absolutely gorgeous with an even more gorgeous view. I stayed with my husband and it was perfect for the two of us. It’s not a large room but for just two people and a place to lay your head at night it’s perfect. It was very clean, came stocked with coffee, basic kitchen utensils, mini fridge and microwave. This was my first trip to Kodiak Island and staying here set the bar high. I highly recommend.

All about the views!

Captain's Quarters is a lovely studio room with just wonderful views over the water. It is just big enough for 2 adults,but no more. It worked perfect for our 7 night stay. It is within walking distance to everything to do downtown and if you don't mind a longer walk,you can even get to Safeway and Walmart. It's an easy 7 minute drive to Abercrombie State Park and other nearby trails, and also close to Near Island, which you can see from the deck. We really enjoyed our stay!
