Waterfront Home! Hot Tub! (House of the Ocean Sun)
Stylish modern waterfront retreat with accordion glass wall going out to the main deck.

Not suitable for children under 16 due to high bank waterfront.
No parties. No pets. No smoking on the property please. Zero tolerance and can be cause for eviction.

House of the Ocean Sun is a modern, stylish waterfront home with clean finishes that provide a sense of luxury, but also livability. Perfect for a romantic getaway or a group of friends looking for a fun, relaxing, and stylish retreat. With high quality furniture, mattresses, linens and amenities galore.

There is a cozy fireplace in the living room with an accordion glass wall opening the entire house to the stunning Salish Sea. The deck is off of the living room with a dining table, outdoor sofa, hot tub and BBQ. Follow the private path down to the bench on the water or enjoy the picnic table and firepit for s’mores or stargazing. For a private moment, visit the lower deck and sit in the basket swing.

The Primary suite, located upstairs, has a 20-foot vaulted ceiling, a King bed with luxury mattress and linens, a Smart TV, a sound machine, an aromatherapy diffuser, and Alexa speaker for you to enjoy. There is a reading area with a sofa and library as well. Finally, step out of your sliding glass door onto your private balcony overlooking the Salish Sea.

The stunning en-suite bathroom features heated floors, dual sinks with a custom live edge countertop, 2 shower heads, and a large pedestal soaker tub. This is the bathroom of your dreams!

The Guest suite is located on the main level and features an upholstered Queen bed with luxury mattress and linens, a large armoire closet, a sound machine, an aromatherapy diffuser, and Alexa speaker for you to enjoy. The bathroom is located on the main level just steps away from the Guest suite which features dual sinks with a custom fir wood countertop and a large glass shower with marble tile. Located in the closet is a washer and dryer with all your laundry and cleaning needs.

There is a stylish dining area with a bronze chandelier, a 6-person dining table and a wonderful view of the Salish Sea. A large wall of accordion glass doors completely opens to a large deck for an indoor/outdoor experience with breathtaking water views of the sound below. Here, you'll enjoy outdoor dining with a table and seating for 6, a stainless-steel BBQ grill, as well as the relaxing views.
The living room has a gas fireplace, a large sectional sofa, an armchair, coffee table, a telescope, an Alexa system, and a large 55-inch Smart TV for logging into streaming services. The sofa opens into a regular queen-sized bed. The large cabinet in the entry offers plenty of space for the guests staying in the living room to store their belongings. There is excellent Wi-Fi and cell reception for those needing to connect.

You'll find the kitchen is well stocked with spices and quality cookware for guests to prepare meals during their stay. An island with seating and stainless-steel appliances make this kitchen a cook's dream. The "little extras" will help make your use of the kitchen enjoyable. We supply a coffee grinder as well as whole espresso beans in addition to a few flavored syrups during your stay.
House of the Ocean Sun is the perfect getaway for the guest who is looking to enjoy luxury and relaxation.

Wonderful Anniverstay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed for two nights as a quick getaway and it was the most welcoming enjoyable rental I’ve stayed at for awhile. We loved the view and the bathrooms - the hot tub on the deck were great! We tended to watch movies upstairs since the living room tv was a little high, so it was nice to have the option. The tea kettle may need replacing - just a note- there was residue coming off the bottom floating around in the water. Also, it was be super nice to add smaller spoons. The spoons were huge! Just helpful hints for the managers ;) we wouldn’t hesitate to come back!

**FIVE STARS** Exceeded every expectation!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: One of my main concerns about rental properties is the experience of the reality v the listing, meaning you discover negatives that you just can't determine from the photos or description. In the House of the Ocean Sun, I am thrilled to say that the home met and exceeded my expectations in every respect!The home is exactly as it's pictured and described; it's gorgeous, clean, incredible views, high-end everything. And a delightful bonus is that literally everything in the home is labeled, light switches, cabinets, towels, kitchen drawers so it was incredibly EASY to find anything I needed. I just loved that as sometimes I spent hours just trying to figure out what goes where and, of course, forget where to put things afterwards.The hot tub is the best I've ever used at a VRBO property. It's serviced and maintained and it's HOT - 104 degrees - and the view of the Salish Sea is unmatched.Also, San Juan Property Management did a wonderful job communicating and they were responsive to everything we needed. This property is expensive, but well worth the value. I highly recommend it!

Uncomfortable Stay
I do not recommend renting this house in the summer unless and until the promised "air conditioning" system is replaced. In fact, the house has some sort of ductless heat pump system that does not cool the house when the sun is shining. The air-handling unit on the main floor did not function properly because it kept detecting that the unit was freezing up. Eventually, it started to drip water and had to be turned off. The air-handling unit on the upper floor only recirculated the hot air on that floor. We contacted San Juan Property Management, the VRBO host for the property. They sent someone to the house, but he was unable to improve the situation and conceded that the system was "not well-designed." We also spoke with Chris, the Property Manager for SJPM, who admitted that because the house is black, and a heat load builds up in the crawl space above the second floor, the heat pump system is not capable of cooling the house. It was hot inside and we were very uncomfortable. Opening the windows for cooler air once the sun set was not an option because there are no screens on the windows. We tried opening windows, but a lot of bugs flew in. Before you rent this house, and particularly given how expensive it is, you need to ask SJPM whether the "air conditioning" system has been replaced and screens have been placed on the windows. By the way, SJPM did offer us a "courtesy refund" of about 5%, but only if we ageed to say nothing negative in this review.
