absolutely amazing
The location and view was amazing!! Walkable to everything. Great having the restaurant downstairs. King bed was super comfy, and with the fans it was very comfortable. You literally get off the ferry and it’s right there! A wonderful ice cream shop right across the street!Jacuzzi tub was well maintained and worked great!!Only issue- is being across the street from the ferry- the 5:15 am unloads all of the supply trucks- and with the open windows you hear it! So bring ear plugs!

Very convenient for a bike trip weekend getaway. The apartment was huge and provided everything wee needed. Did some rearranging of furniture so we could sit and look out the window. My suggestion is to improve the ability and opportunity to sit and enjoy the view. 2 comfortable chairs and ditch the dining table.Loved the convenient location and jetted tub was excellent!

Couldn’t have wanted a better place to stay. Its view across the street from the ferry was unbeatable. Everything was walking distance away. We rode our bikes all over the island with ease. We parked our bikes in the place which was up stairs. Even a friendly tourist helped us one of the times. The fans provided all the air circulation we needed. Thank you for keeping such a nice rental. We hope to be back again someday. Top notch!
It was a beautiful location with great views of the harbor. It was fully stocked with everything we needed. We were very comfortable and would highly recommend it to anyone.
This location was perfect! Across from ferry we would sit in dining room and watch the ferry it was awesome and we rarely heard the horn. Close to food shops and popular sites. The place was clean and accommodating.
My husband wanted an active vacation for our 38th anniversary, and San Juan Island didn’t disappoint. We really didn’t need a car to enjoy kayaking, whale watching, hiking, e-bikes all around the island. It was a spectacular location for all.
This property is all about location front and center downtown Friday Harbor. The rental is large with great widows overlooking the water, the ferry, and you can people watch on the street below. It's a little dark inside, and there are no closets. The King size bed was very comfortable. The Jacuzzi tub is huge and big enough for two people. There are several really good restaraunts easy walking distance within a couple blocks. This is an upstairs unit with no elevator so be ready to pack your luggage up one floor of stairs. There is no parking lot, but I was able to park right in front of the entrance in a 2 hr parking zone (8am-5pm) then move up the hill 3 or floor blocks to 10 hour parking. Parking si nto enforced overnight so I could park right by the entrance. Parking was not an issue but we were there in April. May be more difficult in peak season. Overall, for us in late April, this is a great place to stay in a great location. I would definately stay there again.
Great location! Easy access to restaurants, ferry & shopping. Very comfortable. Clean & had everything we needed. Ear plugs were a great suggestion as early morning ferries & traffic are loud. Handheld shower & large tub took some agility. Would definitely stay again.
This location was perfect! Amazing view of the harbor and so many shops/restaurants with in walking distance. The only tips I would give is to bring ear plugs as the ferry traffic and street traffic can get loud at night. Also prepare for parking. Street parking is pretty limited.
Located in the heart of Friday Harbor. Walking distance to many restaurants and shops. A little loud in the morning when the first ferry comes in but after that not bad at all. Rented a car from M&W (easy walk to pick up and drop off) to explore the island. Enjoyed strolling the marina looking at boats. All whale watch boats take off a block away from the rental. Would stay here again if we make it back.

Directions for how to get into the suite was spot on and really easy. We had no problems at all. The suite itself is large and spacious. Parking is only thing that was inconvenient about staying here. I would definitely stay there again.

Thank you for staying with us! We’re so glad you enjoyed your visit and appreciate your feedback. We’d love to host you again anytime!
It was the perfect place to stay for the 3 of us. It was unfortunately 80+ degrees which made the apartment 100. Recommend bringing an iPad or computer if you want to stream anything at night, as the tvs don’t have streaming capabilities and the town shuts down early but they do provide cable!
Great space, bathtub and kitchen.
Amazing views!
So I love the location and I really like this condo. There's a few little things that can be fixed like the sink and maybe new furniture. Furniture now is pretty worn out. The hideaway bed is terrible. But overall I stay there every time I go to the island.

I had a wonderful girls trip with me and my roomate for a few days and got the pleasure of exploring San Juan! This rental was in a wonderful location, and was really nice on the inside! We were blown away when we walked into a quaint and adorable place to stay. At the end of a long day of adventuring we were excited to watch tv, cook in the kitchen, and sleep in the big bed! Our only complaint is the shower was challenging to use and often leaked no matter how precocious we were. Overall loved staying here, thank you for a great time!

We really enjoyed our stay as the place was clean and spacious. We could not ask for a better location for strolling around town and discovering the island. We found ourselves ferry watching out the windows, OMG have we become our grandparents?? The only issue, and it is a real issue, what is the lack of a reliable Internet connection.
Great Central Location! Walking distance to Everything!
It was our anniversary trip and Harbor View was a great location for us to walk to everything in Friday Harbor. Time of year was perfect so no AC was needed. It was quite loud every morning with ferry horns and just outside traffic. Construction right outside with big trucks really early in the morning so that was a negative. One thing I would suggest is some nicer bedding, down comforter and better sheets? It was a spacious unit with lots of seating. Overall we had a great experience and would come back!
The location is right in the center of town and that’s the good part and the bad part. When the ferry comes in at 5 AM and 40 big rigs are unloaded you can hear every sound. The unit has everything you need except an air conditioner it is really hot at night. Beware of the shower it’s a hose connected into a Jacuzzi tub, which requires you to step over a 15 inch ledge.The description on the website says there are 10 steps leading up to the unit that is incorrect. There are two sets of 10 steps leading up to the unit.
