We absolutely loved our stay at Alyeska! We visited in October, and even during the off-peak season, there is plenty to enjoy. The spa is not to be missed!! The series of pools and stream rooms were incredible. Don’t miss the circuit of various hot tubs and saunas in the woods! Plan to stay the day in the spa to enjoy dinner, drinks, massages, and more. Our room in the hotel was well-appointed, the selection of restaurants was great, and the bar area was a lovely place to hang in the evening on the weekend. You won’t regret this stay!!

Popular places to visit

This is one of my favorite places to take kids, family, and friends when they come for a visit. It is a truly "Alaska" experience to be able to wander among and feed the Reindeer here. And the scenery on the way can't be beat! Landscape wise, Pioneer Peak is the star of the show on this trip along the Old Glenn Highway & Bodenburg Loop Road.
