Exceptional property!

We recently stayed here, and it is a very clean, quiet, and well stocked property. There is a well stocked pantry with various spices, oils, and other food stuff that has been left by previous guests. I would definitely check the cupboards before you go shopping.The back deck is literally 20 feet from the water and you'll be treated to sea life and wonderful sunsets.The beds were great and we were well rested when we left.Definitely coming back.

Absolutely enjoyed our stay here. The place was decorated so tastefully and the beds were very comfortable. Loved the bathroom…especially the walk-in shower. The kitchen was well appointed and enjoyed the complementary bottle of bubbly while watching the sunset from the porch. Everything was just perfect including the communication from the host.

Never disappointed

This is probably our 5th stay at West Beach Retreat! WBR has always been most inviting, clean and peaceful. We love walking the beach at low tide and love 'taking in' the waves at high tide. Our young adult daughters love to think of it as their very own vacation home:) Thank you Scott for sharing your beautiful property. Many memories made!!

Wonderful beach getaway

Everything about this stay was so relaxing - having the ocean in your actual backyard is magical! The house was beautiful, comfortable, and so well appointed. We got a windy and stormy day, and it was so nice to curl up and listen to and watch the stormy seas while being nice and cozy. We would definitely look forward to another stay, we wished we had more time!

Absolutely stunning views!

The property had everything we needed. The decor was peaceful and appealing. The house is so close to the water. We spent several hours just looking at birds and gazing at the beach and water. There are plenty of places to visit on Whidbey Island. I could have stayed another week. We hope to stay here again.

Beautiful Whidbey Island West Beach Getaway

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful "gals getaway" for 2 nights at this outstanding beach house on the west side of Whidbey Island. Well stocked kitchen with everything we needed, 2 very comfortable bedrooms, newly remodeled bathroom with 2 sinks and huge shower, and living room/dining room furniture all in a updated "beachy" design for total comfort and relaxation. Beautiful sunsets over the Olympic Mountain range, beach walks in both directions right outside your front door, ducks, shorebirds, eagles, blue herons...This is the perfect spot! We would definitely come back here to stay again in the future.
