About this property

Whidbey Island Waterfront on Sunlight Beach

Relax in your private Whidbey Island beach house, as you step out the door onto a sandy, beautiful, driftwood-covered beach. Enjoy the expansive views of the Puget Sound, Olympic Mountains, and Mt. Rainier. The sandy beach, lapping waves, and driftwood are your front yard. The heated deck or the beach deck beckon for conversation and overlooking your northwest paradise.

You will feel like the beach is your own private oasis, and beach walks are unending, as the low tide stretches 3/4 of a mile out and miles and miles to either side. Beachcomb for seaglass, stroll with bare feet, birdwatch, eat and chat, explore and maybe enjoy a glass of wine. Take out one of the kayaks or paddle boards. This is what relaxing in the Pacific Northwest is all about.

Only 15 minutes from Whidbey Island's Clinton ferry dock, you can be there in no time.

Known as one of the most charming small towns in Washington, Langley, with its amazing restaurants, historic buildings, book stores, and antique shops, is only a 15 minute drive away.

Bayview offers a Farmers Market, Supermarket (The Goose), wonderful restaurants and even a great Diner in Whidbey Doughnuts! Perfect for making family memories they will never forget.

Delightful space for 6 adults and 2 toddlers. It was great to have 3 full bathrooms. The backyard is amazing for eating dinner on the deck or just enjoying the outdoors as a family. We even took a dip in the ocean! Would definitely stay again.

I have never repeated a rental home before because we usually like to try new places, but this one is so perfect we had to return for a second trip. So many things make it an ideal place to stay with kids (tons of books, games and puzzles, and the nice shallow bay) but it’s also lovely for the adults. Plenty of space and an incredible view.

Sweet House on Beautiful Sunlight Beach

This was a really nice VRBO at the end of Sunlight Beach, which is an amazing location! I didn't realize how wide the beach is here, which provided hours of entertainment. There are tons of sand dollars, water birds, and more. This is a very special location. The house was comfortable and clean, and we enjoyed our weekend very much.

Great time with friends and family!

This house was perfect for our group, three families each with two kids under 7. We loved walking on the beach and hanging out in the house. Sleeping was great for everyone, especially the bunk room for the kids. Definitely hope to come back!

Christmas on Whidbey Island

This was the perfect place for a family to spend a few days. Even though there were only 3 of us, it could actually sleep upwards of 20 people...COMFORTABLY! Great kitchen with everything you needed and awesome walks on the beach. We will definitely go back to this place. Nate was always available and helpful.

Island Country

Had a very enjoyable, along a bit chilly, visit/stay at Sunlight Beach on Whidbey Island. The house was perfect for six adults, each couple had a king size bed and their own bathroom. We loved walking on the beach every morning and especially enjoyed viewing the many beautiful eagles and other colorful birds inhabiting the area. The owner was very responsive and immediately answered any questions we had. It's a lovely place, will have to try it again in the summer.

Incredible beach house for families

This is the best rental property we’ve stayed in as a group of extended family (with kids ranging 2-8). The location is gorgeous and convenient, the bed/bath layout worked really well for 3 couples plus 4 kids, and the house has *tons* of books, puzzles and toys. The super shallow bay is really cool for walks at low tide and felt very safe for introducing the older kids to kayaking and paddleboarding at high tide. Kitchen is well stocked and we enjoyed our meals out on the porch. Very much hope we can come back again!

Wonderful Stay on Useless Bay

This property was spectacularly located on Sunlight Beach at Useless Bay. Just off the backyard you enjoy a great beach for kids and at low tide can walk out into the bay for lots of fun in the sun. The house itself was as advertised and great for a family. We had a great time and the property manager did a great job answering questions and helping to make the stay perfect. Short drive to Langley or Clinto, really, just a perfect location!
