Semiahmoo Resort

Great place that’s part of Wyndham’s trademark collection. Quiet setting on the water far removed from traffic. Staff was very welcoming and professional and took care of every request. Rooms are large and well appointed with great views. Plenty of things to do for both adults and kids. The restaurant has fantastic breakfasts, brunches and dinners and the service was great there as well. The hotel has some experience so you’re not going to feel like you are in one of the new sterile type hotels but that’s the charm of a classic PNW resort.

Huge disappointment. Resort is looking long in the tooth. We had to call housekeeping twice to get our sink and toilet unclogged right after check in. Restaurant was very disappointing. Food Mediocre to poor. Fruit flys were swarming around our table. Service was meh. Would not recommend Only think going is the setting right on the bay.

RE: Semiahmoo Resort, Blaine, Wa Room 3142 Premier King, Water View It was my 60th birthday this weekend, 8/31 - 9/1/25 Negatives 1. Our Premier room was not ready when promised; we waited until almost 5 p.m. It did not appear that any of the staff cared. 2. When we got to our room, it was not clean—it looked superficially cleaned. We moved a cushion chair and found Froot Loops and other debris underneath. The couch had a strange odor, the shower was only half cleaned, and there was no corkscrew in the room. 3. The front fireplace was turned off, as if the hotel were trying to save money. It diminished the atmosphere, and it was off in the morning as well. 4. The outside grounds were not maintained and looked like a financially disadvantaged neighborhood. The lawn was patchy dirt and grass, with no edging or weeding. Very disappointing. Paint is peeling off the buildings on the beach side. 5. The drip coffee dispenser near the front desk and in the coffee shop was empty in the morning. Only lattes were available. 6. Our room keys stopped working in the morning, and we had to go to the front desk to reset them. The elevator also stopped working for a while in the morning; we had to use the stairs, and we were on the third floor. 7. The front desk charged our incidentals credit card for the full bill after we specifically asked them to use it only for extras. We had to get it corrected at checkout, and no apology was offered. Overall, the hotel feels like a Super 8 motel in a gorgeous location. Hats off to the real estate agent; shame on management and ownership. You took a beautiful hotel and ran it into the ground, and the staff didn’t seem to care much about customers. I would rate the hotel 2 stars out of 5. Very sad. The price does not match the value provided, way overpriced. A Holiday Inn Express offers higher-quality service. Positives 1. Food quality was still great. 2. The hotel’s setting, surrounded by water on three sides, is beautiful. 3. Room sizes are decent. As a business executive who always looked forward to Semiahmoo Resort to relax and reset, I have no intention of returning, even though it was my favorite place over the years. The property has become so run down that I will recommend my friends and business associates to stay elsewhere. Rooms Room was a decent size, great view, but dirty with food remaining from prior guests under our furniture. A couple power outlets did not work, furniture was dated and the couch had a musky odor. Nearby activities A lot of activities for kids. Grounds and the hotel were both run down and unmaintained, bldgs on the water side were peeling a lot of paint. The grass was more dirt than grass. Very abandoned park looking. Walkability The grounds were lacking everything. The beach was nice, the pub was nice. Walking outside looked like an abandoned park without landscapers. Very disappointing. Food & drinks The food and drinks are top notch. Noteworthy details This is like staying at a Super 8 motel at a beautiful location, without landscapers, reduced staff, 2 star out of 5 quality customer service, hotel is falling apart; elevator failed, room was falling apart, furniture was old.

The location of the hotel is amazing but the hotel itself is worn out. The pool is small and was closed one of the days we were there. The restaurant on site was ok. The staff was excellent! This place could be amazing if given some attention. We ended up leaving a day early.

Went with my son to Semiahmoo this past Friday evening, booked last minute as a getaway; as I work FT, and have bone marrow failure- don’t get to do very much anymore, particularly short getaways that are extremely expensive. Checked in around 6pm, got food and went swimming (both v v long stories involving the two family reunions present at resort), went back to room to shower around 9:30pm only to have son find that both the bathtub and shower did not run water. They functionally didn’t work- and a strange, cheap looking hand-held shower was tacked to side wall, ran a small amount of water. My son tried to shower but kept complaining that it ran only cold- I told him it was time for bed, and we’d figure it out in the morning. Morning came- and turns out, that stream of water coming out of tacked on handheld showerhead was cold as freshly melted snow from mountain -& we truly didn’t have any hot, or even warm water. No ability to bathe at all in our room whatsoever, not by shower or bath- nothing. When I stated this upon checkout was told it was actually MY fault for not calling maintenance. When following up with management- was thanked for my “feedback”. (Included video to management showing that bath and shower heads were loosely attached, non functioning, etc. Cannot seem to upload to this site?) Am shocked that Semiahmoo can charge as much as they do; upon further scrutiny I can see that my room WAS discounted, but only to the very “cheap” rate of a little less than $300. So I guess for $300 we cannot expect working plumbing at Semiahmoo. Last time I stayed there floating confoms were in the pool. Oh well. New management has been deeply disappointing.
