Friday Harbor Vacation Packages

The most awesome little cove away from home. I started another book while sitting on the deck..

What fantastic hosts! So helpful & hospitable.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The room was clean, and the staff was friendly. The location was convenient, making it easy to get around the area. The room itself was a bit dated and had an awkward layout, making it feel smaller than expected. The walls were quite thin, so noise from neighboring rooms was noticeable. There were also very few electrical outlets, which made charging phones and laptops a bit inconvenient, and the Wi-Fi signal was weaker than expected. While the property could benefit from some updates, it was clean and served its purpose for our stay.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but I was very disappointed with our stay at Saturn Return. We paid nearly $400 per night after fees for a two-night stay and were very disappointed. The biggest issue was that the listing described the room as having an ensuite bathroom, but we were only informed the day of our arrival that the bathroom was actually located in the hallway, not an ensuite. The room we received also did not match the photos. Instead of the larger loft room shown, we were given a tiny downstairs bedroom with what appeared to be a full-size bed pushed into the corner, right next to the common area, offering very little privacy. The property wasn’t well maintained. The fire pit shown in the listing was completely overgrown with weeds and unusable, and the yard was unkempt. Breakfast was disappointing: a cold, dry quiche, an unusual homemade bread, and no other options like yogurt, fruit, or oatmeal. When we contacted the owner, we asked about a partial refund or a different room since we didn’t receive what we expected. We were told that wasn’t possible and were offered half a bottle of wine instead. Overall, the accommodations did not match the listing, and the lack of a meaningful resolution left us very disappointed. I would not stay here again.

This may be one of the most thoughtful/best designed hotel rooms I’ve stayed in. Super comfortable bed, great bathroom (big shower and a heated toilet seat!), a keurig in the room with real mugs and to go paper cups, real half and half. My only complaint (and it’s picking at straws, honestly) is no plugins close to the bed to plug in phones, and the water pressure wasn’t great in the shower (though hotel rooms are notorious for this, this wasn’t any worse than anywhere else). Lots of thoughtful touches. Great room, I’d choose this place every time in Friday Harbor.

Great location and beautiful back yard to watch the harbor from!
