Solid stay and nice staff
Great place to stay, convenient, great restaurant / bar options, nice staff, and rooms were clean - the only issue I had was the bed was pretty hard, and we struggled finding parking inside the lot when they had an on-site event, although there's street parking as well.

My first time visiting Captain Don's and I can’t wait to go back. If you love diving whenever you want this is the place. The updated rooms are fantastic with good amenities and great housekeeping staff.
Captain Don’s truly is diving freedom and I can’t wait to go back.

The best place to stay for diving! You have a locker for your gear right by the dock. You put your gear on and in minutes you’re driving in one of the best spots on the island right off of their dock. The staff is incredible & totally equipped for boat dives if you want that. We looked at other places & we will go back to Captain Dons for sure! The food is pricey & only OK but it’s easy to get to other restaurants.

Standard room is tight for two guests.
Not enough parking spaces on site.
Overall, staffs are friendly, though management must be improved.
Dive operations by minimum crews.
It is not bad, though wish to have extra safety pre-cautions especially on the dive boat.
Bar and restaurants are excellent in foods and services.

I expected better based on reviews
No help from hotel staff when needing a buddy for freediving. Overall staff experience was very bad. Cleaning was not done even on days when I was all morning away from hotek until 14. Shame, because place has potential.
Swimming pool and rooms are nice on the new side. You can go swimming to the sea in front of hotel and do snorkeling a bit. City center and restaurants are quite far so better suited for guests with a car.

Have only one negative - food at the restaurant, while good quality, was poorly prepared. They need a new “chef “ who doesn’t overcook everything. The only bad meals we had.

We paid hotel taxes through Expedia when we booked our room. When we got to the airport, we were stopped by two men that told us that we had to pay a tax at the airport. I ask what the tax was for and they said because people that stay in condominiums don’t pay the hotel tax so Everybody has to pay it. I told them I could show them where I had paid the hotel tax but they charged us $150 anyway before they were even let us enter the airport. We had to charge it on our charge card and this is out rages to have to pay the hotel tax twice I would like somebody to call me about this. My number is 361-758-2028 and my email is. Bfarrier@yahoo.com. The hotel was nice and we got the room we want it. They took a $500 deposit on our charge card as soon as we got there . we had to leave at 4 AM on the 29th so we were told to come back at 5 o’clock on the 28th and take care of our bill. They told us we owe $259. I said take it out of our $500 deposit and they say they would, but checking my credit card statement but they charged us the $259 on our charge card anyway.
