Friday Harbor Suites

10/10 Excellent

"poor water pressure"

Newly Built Luxury Condo! Downtown! Haven 201

8/10 Good

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a lovely spot - close to everything. Lots of natural light and very comfortable with two bedrooms and two baths.Be aware there are three sets of steps to this unit - no elevator. This unit are not very soundproof from the unit above - the noise coming from the unit above (heavy footfall mostly) was really annoying, even with good earplugs in. Would be great if the upper unit had WTW carpeting! Bed pillows were too thick and difficult to sleep comfortably - otherwise everything else was great."

Earthbox Inn & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is about a 10 minute walk from the entrance of Friday Harbor. The walk is slightly uphill but anyone in moderate shape will find it easy. If you have a roller bag it is a bit bumpy but totally manageable. On the way to the hotel, you’ll pass through the main area of town which is a nice intro to the many shops and restaurants. We found the room not luxurious, but modern, clean and had everything you’d need: Shampoo - wall mounted shower dispenser Conditioner - wall mounted shower dispenser Body wash - wall mounted shower dispenser Liquid hand soap Pump lotion bottle 1 bar soap 1 shower cap 1 makeup remover towel Plenty of hand, face and bath towels A good, con air hairdryer with a concentrator. Best part - the hair dryer is NOT attached to the wall. Iron + board Robes Keurig coffee maker - but there’s an on site coffee shop too. The clock on the nightstand had two USB A ports but they charged slowly. A fridge and a microwave The room itself only had one wall outlet. Luckily we had our travel power strip, and that came in very handy. Most, if not all, of the rooms have a balcony with two chairs and a little table - we didn’t use it but a nice touch. The staff at the front desk were nice and helpful to give local suggestions on where to eat and places of interest. As mentioned the hotel is on the Main Street - about 10 minutes from the main town so very accessible to all the restaurants, shops and bars. The check in was easy. 24 hours before check"

Downtown Friday Harbor! Newly Built! CP

8/10 Good

"Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A very convenient location. The room was comfortable & nicely decorated. The common area was useful - the labeled bins in the refrigerators & extra coffee supplies were appreciated! The road noise from the trucks coming off the early morning ferries was pretty intense, but without air conditioning, leaving windows open was necessary. This may be specific to the China Pearl suite as it faces directly onto the main street of town where all ferry traffic exits. Communication with owners was good when they needed to enter to check on a plumbing issue, but both the front door & suite door were left unlocked by whoever entered. That was a little upsetting to find when we returned that morning, but no harm in the end. Overall, I would recommend."

New Suite! Water View! (CS-Yakima)

10/10 Excellent

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This location is steps away from the Friday Harbor ferry landing. It is so convenient and close to everything from restaurants to grocery stores. I had no problem parking my car during the day or after 5pm. The room is huge with 3 beds and 1 sofa bed. Great for a big family staying together."
