Our second visit

The Captain's Inn is a really nice hotel with polite, helpful and friendly staff. The location is excellent and although they don't have their own pool, you are able to use the beaches at Moods for free which is a real bonus, as almost all of the hotels and beaches charge. We would recommend you ask the staff for advice re. any trips or excursions you want to book as they will find you a better rate than advertised. Our particular thanks to Marko who arranged a half day snorkeling trip for us on our last day and allowed us to keep our room for an extra two hours so that we could shower before catching our cab to the airport.

A great stay at the Marine. Wonderful & clean cosy hotel. Very good price. Nice breakfast with lots of varities.Staff are very friendly and helpful. Access to Moods Beach is a great advantage. A 4 minute ride by Toktok to downtown. This's my second time to stay at Captain's Inn and I greatly recommend it.
