Birthday Weekend at the Beach

Absolutely beautiful sunny April weekend on Whidbey and it was made completely perfect with a wonderful and seamless stay at Ella’s Beach House. This home was immaculate, comfortable, fully stocked, and right on the water boasting a view of pristine sunsets! This home allowed the right amount of space and access to all outdoor beach activities as well as creating a cozy and warm environment for evening dinners and family time. Our daughter’s birthday weekend with friends and family was made perfect by staying at Ella’s Beach House. It is beautiful and we are looking forward to staying again!

Beautiful home & oceanfront property

Just wanted to share our recent experience at this incredible oceanfront property. Picture this: waking up to the soothing sound of waves, sipping coffee with a breathtaking view, and feeling the ocean breeze on your face – pure bliss! The custom home was cozy. If you're all about a good night's sleep, this place will not disappoint. The only "person" who loved it more than us was our golden retriever. She loved swimming in the ocean. Highly recommend for some serious relaxation and lovely long walks on the beach.

A Seaside Sanctuary!

Ror and Lori’s place is truly exceptional. The house was spotless, stocked with everything (and more) that you could imagine and the location is unbeatable. My sister and I took our Mom for her 80th Birthday. She has been extremely sick and wanted to spend some time at the beach staring at the water, watching the birds, seals, boats… one last time. This home couldn’t have been a better place to do it. The views are spectacular from the whole lower level and the primary bedroom (where our Mom stayed). Our days were filled with beach combing, walks in the neighborhood, visits to nearby Langley and Freeland, and sitting on the large deck watching the Herons fish right in front of the house! Such a fun time! Ror and Lori are great communicators and thoughtful hosts. It’s obvious that this home is their special place as well. My sister and I hope to come back again in the future! Thank you, Ror and Lori, for sharing your home!
