About this property

Hot tub on the Beach with Super Fast Wi-Fi at Anchor Shores

Welcome to Anchor Shores! We've recently remodeled the entire home, making this the most up-to-date home on the beach!

You can listen to the ocean rumble on the beach right outside our 4000 square foot, 4 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom beachfront home. No need to walk to the ocean – just a few steps over the rock bulkhead and you’re already there! Look at the photos to see how close the beach really is. If you're not into rock climbing, you can access the beach from the park just a few blocks south.

What is the view really like? You will look due west down the Strait of Juan de Fuca as the sun sets while looking south to the Olympic Peninsula, northwest to the San Juan Islands and north to Anacortes. You can even see the lights of Victoria, BC at night!

All four bedrooms are upstairs. The primary bedroom has a king-sized bed and it's own separate bathroom. The bunk room has two queen beds on the ground and two twin XL beds above. The third bedroom has a king-sized bed. The fourth bedroom has a queen-sized bed and it's own separate bathroom. An additional full bath is in the hallway directly across from bedrooms #2 & #3.

Each bedroom opens up to an upstairs deck - excellent for whale, dolphin and sunset watching. Our home will comfortably sleep twelve – perfect for two to three families. Two of the bedrooms have their own bathroom suites, and another bathroom off the hallway serves the remaining bedrooms.

Anchor Shores comes complete with all high thread count linens, a fully equipped kitchen, large capacity washer and dryer, parking for up to four cars, high speed Internet and WiFi, cable access to over 220 channels and two fully Internet enabled HDTVs - one is a 75” flat-screen in the living room and the other is a 50” flat screen in the kids’ media room.

The main floor features a warm, open kitchen with flat cooktop facing the water; a dining room with seating for twelve; a large, open living room with seating for everyone, and separate seating areas for book reading or ocean watching.

Our home away from home is located just minutes from Oak Harbor, but secluded from the noise of the city. Close by are the world famous Gallery Golf Course, Fort Ebey State Park, Deception Pass State Park, and the ferry from Coupeville to Port Townsend on the Olympic Peninsula.

And if you're looking for something to eat, you can cook for yourself in the fully appointed kitchen while watching the waves crash on the beach, or you can enjoy one of our favorite local restaurants.

The best part about Anchor Shores is that Whidbey Island has some of the lowest rainfall in Washington State, making any time of the year right for a Pacific Northwest vacation. While many parts of Washington experience annual rainfall of 30” or more (220” in the Olympic Rain Forest), Whidbey Island will enjoy less than 20” of rain each year since it is located in the Olympic Mountain Rain Shadow.

We do have a no pet policy, including hypoallergenic animals, and this is especially important due to severe allergies in our family.

Why not take in the ocean and the views for a most relaxing and memorable vacation?

Come and enjoy the spellbinding effects of sun, surf and sea breezes that are never further than your front doors. Anchor Shores on the way to experience the best of the ocean.

Great experience
We had an excellent time staying at the house over Christmas. There was plenty of space for multiple families with kids and it is the absolutely best stocked VRBO I've ever seen. Absolutely would stay there again.

Gorgeous, comfortable home
This house was everything we could have hoped for a girls weekend. The rooms and beds were super comfortable, the kitchen was perfect for cooking gourmet meals, and there was tons of cozy seating space. The views and hot tub were incredible.

Truly Beautiful & Amazingly Comfortable!
We stayed at Dean & Suzanne's VRBO in September 2023 and the word my family kept saying all week was - Wow! The pictures on the website were pretty but in-person this VRBO is even more beautiful. We saw the spout of a whale from the living room and a sea lion catching a salmon from a bedroom. The view was so relaxing and remarkable, but the furniture was amazingly comfortable too. For example, often with VRBO's it is hard to find a place that has a dining room table big enough so everyone can eat together. This VRBO has that and the dining room chairs are super comfortable. So too was the furniture throughout the whole house. You could just chill out and talk or read or look out the window for hours. Also, I don't sleep as well as I used to when I was younger but on this vacation I slept so incredibly well. The sound of the waves were extremely relaxing. They created a beautiful white noise that even with many people in the house it meant that if others were staying up late or getting up early, they were not waking up everyone else. And several family members commented on how comfortable the beds were. I whole heartedly recommend this property if you are wanting a vacation or just some down time in a beautiful location. It was simply remarkable beyond words! - Mary L

4th Annual Girls Trip!
We have stayed at many many beautiful homes, but this one really blew our minds! Yes, we read the description about the crashing waves and right on the waters edge….but no words can describe this!!! It’s was magical, relaxing and that sunset!!! We were a group of 10 ladies! Ten picky ladies and This home had everything! There is so many spaces to have some alone time, yet a great room to house us all at once! The view, the hot Tub! I can go on and on! There was no fuss about the rooms! They each were perfect! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

About the host

Hosted by Dean & Suzanne Hayes

Host profile image
Our family resides just north of Whidbey Island in the beautiful Skagit Valley. We actually met each other on Whidbey Island, so it's always had a place in our hearts.

Why they chose this property

After we purchased our other VRBO, Luna Shores, we fell in love with this area, and we've always been on the lookout for another home. Our guests sometimes state they wished Luna Shores was a little larger to accommodate larger families, or three smaller families. When we found Anchor Shores, we knew this was just the place, and we've applied our same 5-star amenities and customer service to Anchor Shores. Welcome home!

What makes this property unique

We have learned that an enjoyable vacation means not having to shop for minor supplies, like salt and pepper or extra paper towels. We provide a fully appointed kitchen with plenty of towels and bathroom supplies for the entire family. All you need to bring with you is your clothes, main food items and your camera!
