The Captains Quarters was nestled away in a perfect location near downtown with a view I could drink up all day. Mike & Gina were welcoming and available for all questions & needs. I’d be honored to stay at their place again.
This was the perfect location, easy walking distance to the town. Could spend hours sitting on the balcony and watching boats and wildlife go by. Just lovely.
Nice little get away spot. View was beautiful, beds and shower comfortable. We would have benefited from a pearing knife to cut our bagel and apple. One other suggestion is a taller faucet in one of the sinks to better wash dishes and fill water bottles. Great spot! I would highly recommend!
Super easy check-in. Interesting use of space, with a Beautiful View of the channel and smaller islands. We so enjoyed sitting on the deck, enjoying the view and being surrounded by salmon berries and spruce. My grandparents had a house 1/2 mile down Mission Road in the 60’s and 70’s.The Captains Quarter’s is a comfortable updated efficiency that I highly recommend!
Amazing views, great location and the host is very helpful. We wanted to go on a hike and she let us borrow some bear spray. Luckily, we did not need it but made us feel better.
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.

Such a nice room - well appointed and tastefully decorated, with a comfortable bed and a relaxing view of Near Island Channel.
The Captain’s Quarters had a dedicated parking space along the road, and a separate entrance that is clearly marked. Easy to find and easy to access (provided that a few stairs are not a limitation).
The hosts are responsive to questions sent through the Expedia app, but not invasive or otherwise bothersome.
I enjoyed my 3-night stay and would absolutely consider staying there again in the future.
Having coffee on the deck overlooking the bay was a highlight every morning and drinks in the evening.
Place was very clean and hosts were very responsive. Highly recommend to anyone coming to Kodiak.
We only stayed 2 nights but this apartment had everything we needed. It was in a perfect location and had everything we needed. And the view is spectacular!
