Seastar Lodging

From the moment we first walked into our room, we felt the warm welcome of Orcas Island. Soft music was waiting for us as if to say «You can relax, now.» Located in the center of the quaint seaside village of Eastsound, easy walking distance to a wonderful collection of restaurants, bakeries, and shops, our room was beautifully decorated, relaxing and quite comfortable. A small deck with a stunning view of the water & surrounding San Juan Islands was the perfect, peaceful place for our morning coffee. A well appointed kitchenette with a table provided for a few stay-​in meals. A spacious living area with sofa and chair was always a relaxing place to read or just enjoy the view. Wi-​Fi and Satellite TV were available… but frankly, there was no desire to be connected to anywhere outside this idyllic place. Would we recommend SeaStar Lofts? Absolutely! Would we return? We already have!

My husband and I have stayed here a few times now and are always charmed. The views on the water side are breathtaking and the proximity to town, as in just footsteps, make it so easy on various levels. The WiFi is good and the kitchenette allows us to save on time and food when looking to take it easy and do our own thing. I have to give shoutouts to the Brown Bear Bakery and Darvills bookstore nearby for awesome eats, books and two different, but equally fab coffees (between the two businesses.) We will be back!

My fiancé and I stayed here for a weekend getaway in late March. The view from the Captain’s suite is incredible, and the adirondack chairs on the balcony made us feel right at home!
The soaking tub was amazing! I made a point to take a soak before we left as the tub was much larger than the one we have at home, it’s extra wide which is great for two people showering at the same time.
The location to town can’t be beat! We loved being able to walk outside and we were right on the beach, and there were coffee shops and even a grocery store within walking distance.
We had a slight snafu when checking in, the keys weren’t in the Dropbox and we weren’t able to get ahold of the owner right away. A shop owner next store let us in as she knew the code to the building. Small town, it happens. Honestly, we were relieved that someone was there to let is in!
We noticed an ant problem while we were there, and this was late March, a bit early for ants. We didn’t leave any food out, and we couldn’t find a trail where they were coming in from. They seemed to hang out at the dining table, but nowhere else. We think the restaurant next door may have been the reason for the ants.
The bed wasn’t very comfortable, it felt like sleeping on a futon but it was a Queen sized bed. The kitchen was functional but very small. We found it more than adequate for a one or two night stay if making food at home. Any longer, you may need more space.
Overall, we would recommend it for a weekend stay for a couple. Beautiful location!

I was so pleasantly suprised when I walked in the door! It was warm & inviting, a little music playing and the room was so nicely set. I could live there. The room (really its a full studio) came with a nice kitchen, dining table, king sized bed (that was really comfy), a door that opened onto Main street to let the cool evening breeze in and, bestill my heart, a soaking tub! This will be my go to place on Orcas from now on. I really enjoyed my stay.
