What a great place to stay. Very accommodating and hospitable … if you are real lucky, they might even feed you some great seafood!
If Seward had a Ritz, I might take this place over it!

Darling quiet yurts in the forest with everything you need, heaters in yurts, outdoor sinks, showers with plenty of space, hairdryers, a huge kitchen with fridges, grills, tables to chill and cook - great for cyclists, travelers and people who want different experience.

Wonderful Experience! Clean cozy sleeping areas and beautiful kitchen. Fun theme of Pirates in the Hostel.
Staff super helpful and friendly, and such a great way to meet people from all over the world wanting to visit Alaska.
Close and convenient to town and the glacier hike and even church on Sunday. Great Experience,
Will return soon!

The yurts were very cozy, cute, comfortable and nicely decorated. The area around the yurts was magical at night with white lights in the branches of the forest trees that light your way along the path to the bathrooms, or open-air kitchen. The Nauti Otter Inn is in a secluded, beautiful & forested neighborhood with nice homes on large lots that is tucked away from road noise. What a find close to Seward, Alaska.

We only stayed one night but we enjoyed our stay. The little cabin we booked was very tiny but cozy and the beds were very comfy. I would definitely recommend staying at the Nautti Otter
