Great hosts. It’s an older property, but well kept, and the balcony view was fabulous. We would definitely stay again when in the area.

First impressions, carpet outside on way to room was very dirty. Our room was full of little bugs, as was the terrace. I had to ask for tissues and toilet paper. However, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The grounds were beautiful. The pool was very cold and they had some issues with it because it didnt open on time. We did however have a wonderful time.

My only choice when I stay in,Alex Bay.
I have stayed here multiple times and this resort never disappoints. Rooms are spacious and clean and the water views can't be beat. I have no desire to stay anywhere else.

Best Stay in the Bay!
This stay is top notch! The rooms are beautifully decorated and there is everything you need inside the room, except there is no microwave. The balcony overlooking the water is spectacular, the pool is pristine, and there is dining and shopping steps away. We will always stay at Capt. Thomson's when we visit the Bay! Highly recommended!
