Is on a busy traffic corner but only gets traffic during the day.

Quaint and great restaurant.

The restaurant was offering an exotic, minimal list of dinner options, outside of my tastes and also my wife’s.

There was no breakfast at The Kingfisher. The location was so wonderful The suite was brilliant in what made it relaxing The Staff ( her name is Hemingway) was superior, pleasant and mysterious (remotely helping!)

The room could have used a table or at least a fold out table.

The view from the room was amazing.

We did have questions and texted their contact/text/cell # but we never heard back. It all worked out but when you stay here, don't expect a front desk or concierge. It's Orcas and they're all about you figuring it out.

Loved the location and check in was a breeze; you just walk to your room. If you can, book dinner at the Kingfish restaurant below. We arrived by bike and there aren't any stores nearby; if you do travel by bike, pick up what you need at the market at the Orcas island ferry terminal.

The lighting was a bit wonky next to the bed and the sink had issues with drainage.

Breakfast? I loved that everything was prepared without the need for a check in desk. The restaurant was amazing…wonderful staff and excellent food. Anna and her brother outdid themselves with the entree and dessert of buttermilk panne cotta with rhubarb and black pepper granola! I thought the views and bed were great. I liked my room, the pine #2 room, the best of all the upstairs rooms. I have booked three nights in late September in #4 with the deck access. Orcas Island was beautiful and peaceful. Can’t wait to return and continue my exploration of your island. The building is so cool! Also I thought the two of you decorated the rooms and hallways so nicely. Understated but interesting. The couch and overstuffed chair were was comfy to curl up on for my reading time. Congratulations on creating a fabulous retreat!

Off season, there is no place to eat without a 15 min drive. Not even any stores.

Westsound is a quiet, peaceful place. The room has a great view of the water.

Not much to improve. The staff was really friendly and we were treated like family.

They only open the kitchen for dinner and only Wed -Sunday. The chef was ill during our visit and did not serve dinners.

The shower is quite small.

Room was spacious with a restaurant available for dining during dinner. View of my room was awesome!

An upgrade that would have been nice would be a smart TV or roku so we could watch Netflix etc. Additionally the shower was very small- hard to move around in!

Loved the beautiful view, comfy bed, cleanliness of the room and nice additions like snacks. It was lovely to walk down to the beach in the mornings. Also loved the easy check in.

nothing bothered me

Outside deck chairs on the balcony too low to see the view! Not enough parking when the restaurant is open. Had to park out on the street.

We had the downstairs unit room # 4. It was very spacious and comfortable with a king size bed. Small cute kitchenette with microwave, refrigerator, Keurig coffee machine, dishes and utensils. Complementary oatmeal, granola bars and kettle chips and an array of assorted coffee pods. Love the couch and sitting area. Also a little breakfast bar with two stools. Bathroom was quite large with a cute vanity. The restaurant on site was excellent! Chef Raymond was very hospitable and friendly. We had the Bolognese which was delicious and you must try the flourless chocolate torte!!

No restaurant or and other options within walking distance

Fabulous place. Really comfortable and very picturesque location.

We choose to leave and there was nothing to like. worst experience in our 28 years of traveling.

Nothing. We did not stay and found a different location. Poor customer service.

Stayed in June 2024

We had trouble opening the windows and then closing them again, causing one of the windows to remain slightly open the entire stay. The room was very nice, but oddly situated in that you couldn’t sit on the couch and watch the television. Also, the bathroom was a little dingy; needs a new coat of paint and brighter lightbulbs.

Kingfish is a very cute and quaint hotel. The view was amazing. The bed was very comfortable.

The step between living room and kitchenette is difficult/ dangerous for people who are not used to it. We tripped several times.

While we respect the historical value of the inn there were several things that need to be done to make the stay more comfortable. Fans just aren’t enough during unseasonably hot days. More comfortable chairs on the private deck would have been great. A better shower head with more water pressure in the bathroom , tissues, better quality coffee and snacks would have made the stay more comfortable.

beautiful historic inn.. The location was quiet. We very much appreciated being able to check in 30 minutes early after an exhausting day of travel. The owners respected our privacy.

The stairs are steep. It was difficult to carry suitcases upstairs and down. Kleenex would have been appreciated.

The view from our window was amazing! The room was lovely, bed comfy, and the towels soft. Our dining experience was outstanding with that personal touch!
