If you want to feel as if you have really abandoned civilization â€" without leaving behind your favorite contemporary luxuries â€" consider checking into Friday Harbor House on the San Juan Islands in Washington State. Life moves at a slower, more leisurely pace here and time seems to lose all significance. The 23-room inn exudes personality and warmth against the gray Pacific Northwest skies, and expansive windows frame striking panoramic views of the marina and ferry landing. Uncluttered guestrooms possess a Zen-like feel and lavish whirlpool tubs and lovely fireplaces create a homey feel. Each stay includes a delicious breakfast of fresh-baked goods and handmade granola, as well as boldly-flavored coffee, providing you with the perfect start to an ideal day.

This beautiful, well maintained property is perfectly located in Friday Harbor, with spectacular water views from every room. Each suite is spacious and well equipped for visitors to enjoy. The staff is warm and welcoming, and what truly sets the property apart is management’s attention to details. From morning coffee to afternoon snacks and luxury touches throughout, this is a special place that I recommend to anyone visiting the area.

We were welcomed by Zoe, great employee. Got our room quickly and earlier than check in time. It is a convenient place for walking on and off the ferry. It is located in the heart of the harbor. Great room and a beautiful view. We were in the harbor view on the second floor. I did read a few reviews that said get top floor because you hear the creaking of the floors above. We did hear it, but it was not horrible or anything. This hotel has a magnificent cinnamon roll pancake in their restaurant. I e definitely would stay there again. I will tell you it is a bit pricey, but runs about the same as the other area hotels. Friendly staff and nice rooms.

This is a great little hotel with friendly, inviting staff and very comfortable accommodations. This was our first stay but we are already checking out calendar to see when we can come back again.

A stand‑alone hotel that became a genuinely life‑affirming experience for me in the middle of winter, right when I needed an escape. The staff are warm, attentive, and consistently delightful. Breakfast is, without exaggeration, the best in town—comforting, beautifully prepared, and served with real care. My room was spotless, deeply comfortable, and quietly luxurious, complete with a cozy fireplace and an in‑room Jacuzzi tub overlooking the water. The combination of the space, the view, and the kindness of the people made this stay unforgettable.
