Excellent. Location could not be better and we snagged an ocean front for night one. The room and…read morebathroom was spacious for Cape Ann. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The rooms outside deck was spacious and the ocean water lapped on the sand and rocks below. The staff was absolutely great. Friendly, accommodating and competent. The view was of the open ocean, Bears Neck, and back beach. Awesome. The 4th of July Parade walks right by the hotel and the Bonfire is a 30 second walk away. Bears Neck and the many shops, restaurants, lobster pounds, art dealers, jewelers, artist, glass blowers and more is a very short walk away.

I rarely write negative reviews. No one is perfect and things do go wrong sometimes. With Captain's…read moreBounty, when things went wrong, the hotel became very defensive and denied any accountability, and turned it around and blamed it on the customer. I have been waiting for two weeks for a refund and an explanation/apology, the hotel simply refused to respond. On 07/03/2026, I and my three young children arrived at Captain's Bounty on the Beach for a two night stay for the July 4th weekend. Unfortunately, we had to cancel the reservation because there were wasps inside our room. Specifically, there was a dead wasp on the bathroom floor upon our arrival, which was unacceptable because hotels are expected to check the room right before guest arrival. Disgusted, I immediately picked it up with a tissue and flushed down the toilet. Subsequently, we saw another 6 wasps in total and I was scared that it would fly so I quickly caught it with tissue and flushed down the toilet. I did not think to take a picture for evidence because I and my children were scared. Because the wasps are dangerous and especially my children are young, we did not feel safe to stay for the night and had to cancel the reservation, which was very disappointing as we drove almost two hours to get to the hotel and we were left without a plan for the holiday weekend. I wanted a refund since we had to cancel the reservation for safety reasons. I spoke with the front desk, who immediately insinuated that we wanted to cancel because we didn't have an oceanfront room, which was not the reason for the cancellation; the wasps and our safety was. The hotel has two separate buildings, one is right on the beach, and the other one is across the street next to a historical cemetery. It was not ideal but I would not cancel the reservation just because of that and lose our money. Unfortunately the wasps were just too much for our family to make it work. In the written communication that followed, the hotel kept forcing a point that the location was the reason for the cancellation, while demonstrating no accountability for having wasps in their hotel room, which is a completely unacceptable safety hazard. The hotel also questioned my honesty by pointing out that I took my children to the beach that day. Seeing wasps in the room was a shock and our vacation was not going the way we hoped. We all felt unsafe and disappointed. However as the mother and the only adult, I am responsible for my children and had to make sure they were affected as little as possible. Also I don't tend to act on impulse and usually take my time to think things through before acting. It was a long drive on a hot day and I tried to lighten their mood and let them spend some time at the beach while I thought things through what the best plan was for my family, and the conclusion was that we could not see ourselves sleep in a room with wasps at night. The fact that the hotel uses this against me was absurd and shows the absence of compassion. We paid over $900 for nothing but disappointment and a waste of our family's time. Admitting no fault on their end and refusing to refund our money, the defensiveness the hotel demonstrated is a clear indicator that they do not have customer's best interest at heart and aren't willing to take accountability when they should have. Keep accusing the customer and shifting blame onto the customer is not how a business with integrity should operate. Being treated this unfairly as a consumer, I am deeply disappointed. The hotel kept saying no wasps were found later. But that has NOTHING to do with what we experienced as an individual customer and the hotel has not accepted any responsibility for this. In addition, the hotel was able to rent the room out Saturday night, but still refused to refund my money, which made it even more disappointing. It's easy when everything is smooth. However it's when there is conflict that the true color shows.

Had a lovely stay. Room was clean and good sized. The king bed was comfortable while the deck and…read moreocean sounds were also very relaxing. The desk folks were helpful and pleasant. Housekeeping was immaculate and responsive. This is a location central to everything: stores, restaurants, breakfast places, and, of course, Motif #1. Only negative was that the Hideaway opened the day we were leaving so we weren't able to avail ourselves of that during our stay. Otherwise, gotta rate this place an eleven out of ten! Will definitely be back!!!

It's beautiful and very old New England - meaning mainly every time you take a step it makes a huge creak. I feel sorry for any teenager that might have grown up in this house because you had NO chance of sneaking out at night ;). The rooms are spacious and very nicely kept in an older style. The breakfast is appropriately titled the "feast" and has some excellent choices. Our favorite were the scones and apricot bread. The location is prime and just outside of the main harbor in Rockport and walking distance to everything in town (which is true of just about everything in Rockport anyway). They even had a fire going every night and we got the chance to read with a group by the fire which was really fun. The price was very good and the Tuck Inn is highly recommended!
