Kodiak Awesome View Vacation Rentals: The Captains Quarters

Owners Mike and Gina Friccero welcome you to the Awesome View Vacation Rentals experience. Featuring the work of local artist Alvin Amason, this is the perfect accommodation for the traveling executive, romantic couple or family.
This efficiency has private parking/entry, with Ocean Views that are unbeatable. Upstairs Captains Quarters has separate Shower and private Loo, Enjoy ocean front views from your own private deck. Walking distance from town, museums shopping and restaurants. Good viewing for birds, sea lions and the occasional Killer Whale Pod. Lovely sunrises over the ocean, but remember this is the land of the midnight sun! Bring a sleep mask if overly light sensitive. Recommended to bring warm clothes even in summer. Lightweight rain gear is a good thing to include in your pack.
Children are welcome. Our home is on a park strip that offers plenty of room for kids to run and play. Within walking distance of public pool, High School and the bridge to Near Island.
Please note: We are no longer a B&B and do not provide food service. We no longer have Cable TV but room has wifi and streaming device.
We don't feel this space is large enough for three adults, unless it's a family with a young or adult child. Please note: this is a room, not an apartment and has a queen and single bed.

Excellent location and unit
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.

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!

Authentic Alaskan Experience
This reasonably priced unit was located in a lovely spot that allowed us to experience the Kodiak community. It provided the basics while everything else was easily accessible with a walk or short car ride. We rented a vehicle through Ace / Kodiak Car Rentals which we used to drive all over the island. We had a beautifully delicate fresh Tanner crab dinner with calamari & chowder for dinner @ Kodiak Inn / the Best Western restaurant. We enjoyed local food and beverages at Kodiak Island Brewing Co, Java Flats, Harborside Coffee Shop, Aquamarine, and Henry’s. We wanted to try Kodiak Hana, Bean & Bloom, and Nuniaq but they were closed whenever we stopped by. We had a lovely visit and we would recommend staying at this VRBO.
