It is a lovely hotel. Yes, I agree with other comments, the room is lovely, the view is lovely (although not all rooms overlook the ocean) and the owners are really helpful. I particularly likes the 'breakfast' packs that were put in the room every day, and the proximity to a great coffee and the walks on the beach.

Having had a long day behind the wheel we had little time to check out where to stay arriving after the sun had set and thankfully we hit lucky. We stayed in room 8 that had a kitchen facility, other rooms should have better views of the ocean, but we could see in the distance the ports coming and goings... More

A little treasure in Esperance. Right on the beach so the sounds of the wind and waves are all around. Good size rooms all immaculate with kitchenettes etc. The dining room is a museum of china and chintz but lovely breakfast and owner Greg a really friendly bloke. I stay every month on business but it would be fine for... More

Well maintained and lovely comfy beds with wonderful pillows. We are fussy about our pillows. Nice complimentary toiletries with a few little extras you don't usually get. Staff were friendly and very accommodating even though we were late for tea. I'm a Celiac and this was happily catered for. We hope to be back. Thank you.

We drove down from Kalgoorlie that day and were greeted with a big smile from "the Captain," who couldn't do enough to make us feel welcome and to help us enjoy our stay. We were traveling with another couple, and we both got rooms with a view of the ocean. This is a charming little town where you can walk... More

I have stayed at the Captain Huon a number of times on business and have always been impressed by the genuine warmth and friendliness of the Owner Operators. They are always ready with a smile, a cheeky question or a useful tidbit. Whilst the rooms appear a little dated all the furnishings are of a high quality and overall provide... More

My wife and I have just had three weeks in the south west of Western Australia. The location of the Captain Huon motel was truly special - on the foreshore overlooking the Bay of Isles. The facilities were clean, comfortable and private - everything you need for a self contained holiday. We were given a discount without even asking for... More

We had a very nice room, spacious and clean, but we did pay for it... 170 AUD a night. Owner is friendly and gave us plenty of tips on what to visit, which beaches were best, etc, he really took a long time to explain everything and we appreciated it. Location is sea front and a short walk, about 20... More

I was on vacation in Australia. My friend and I were driving from Perth to Brisbane. We had car problems and spent a day and a half in Esperance. The town is very nice and the view of the Southern Ocean is awesome. We spent the night at the Captain Huon Motel. It was the nicest paid lodging we had... More

A nice place right on the beach and a walk to town. Can be a bit noisy because the rooms are right on the road along the beach but the views make up for that. The rooms are ok, a little dated but have a kitchen with fridge and cuttlery. A DVD and TV are pinned to the wall and... More
