Harborview Getaway by AvantStay | Walk to Beach

Welcome to Harborview Getaway, your dream retreat on enchanting Whidbey Island! This post and beam gem boasts vaulted ceilings and breathtaking windows that frame Holmes Harbor.

Enter from the main floor, where you’ll find an open living space, kitchen, and dining areas. Both bedrooms (one king and one queen) and bathrooms are also located on the main floor.

Venture to the loft for movie nights or cozy up with a book. The basement is your go-to for laundry needs. Relish the spacious deck off the dining area—ideal for leisurely meals while the sun dances on the water, bidding adieu behind the Olympic mountains.

Situated between Langley and Freeland, our central island haven provides seamless access to Whidbey's wonders. Tour local vineyards, browse waterfront boutiques in Langley, and explore scenic parks like Fort Ebey and Deception Pass. Hiking and biking are a must, with surprises like Greenbank Farms' delectable pies along the way.

Ferry ease awaits: Mukilteo/Clinton for mainland adventures, Coupeville/Port Townsend for Olympic Peninsula jaunts. To the north, Deception Pass beckons with majestic views and thrilling whale watching. Stroll or drive to the private community beach—the access road is behind your island getaway. Picnics, kayaks, and beachcombing await.

Harborview Getaway—where memories flow as freely as the tides. Your island escape is calling!

Discover the allure of Whidbey Island, where tranquility meets captivating landscapes. Embraced by the Puget Sound, this paradise invites group travelers to unwind on sandy shores and explore nature's wonders. Quaint villages add to the island's charm, each with a unique character. And when it’s time for adventure, outdoor enthusiasts can embark on adventures from Deception Pass to Ebey's Landing.

Favorite spot on Whidbey

Harborview Getaway is a true gem and has become our go to spot to stay on Whidbey. The house is quiet and tucked away with a beautiful view of the sound and the Olympics on a clear day. The home is comfortable, with one of the most well appointed kitchens I've ever used. The management is professional and responsive, and included many thoughtful touches to the stay.

Perfect peaceful space

Booked this VRBO for my son's family -- 2 adults, 1 teen, 1 almost teen, and one 6-month-old. Really convenient to the rest of the family AND a nice hideaway for them when the whole extended family got to be a bit much. Clean, comfortable, spacious - everyone's needs were met. We'll definitely be booking Harborview Getaway again.

Good home on Whidbey Island

This was a nice home with a great front deck and peek a boo views of the water. Beach access is just one street over and down the hill for a nice private beach. The nearest store is 10min away for that nice “in the woods” feeling, but you do see the neighbors so you aren’t by yourself out there. Wish they had a tv downstairs other than just the master bedroom, but it didn’t take away from our great time, thanks again for a great stay

First time to Whidbey Island

The Harborview Getaway was perfect for our small family of three ... plus our pup. The view out the windows was wonderful. The sunny days, cloudy/stormy days, sunrises, sunsets, no matter what, we enjoyed looking out at the changing skies, the snow capped mountains far in the distance, and the hawks soaring by. The house is in a very quiet small neighborhood, which was great for us. There was a short walk down to the beach ... we didn't need the key to the gate but if someone has any sort of mobility issue, I'd recommend getting the key to be able to drive down, as the walk down and back up was steep. The house was very clean and well organized. We've stayed in many vacation rentals and thought that this was the best equipped kitchen we have ever rented. We were also thrilled to see REAL sized coffee mugs!! Tiny mugs of coffee in the morning just don't make the grade! Any possible piece of kitchen equipment that we wanted we found and in good working order! The binder of information about the area; restaurants, grocery stores, state parks, beaches, gas stations, etc. was wonderfully complete. We also appreciated the user manuals for different things in the house. It is nice to be able to figure things out without a lot of effort.We had a very comfortable stay and would definitely return. Whidbey Island is just what we were looking for, we had fun exploring the south end of the island but also did take the time to visit Deception Pass State Park in the north.

Great Weekend Getaway

We only stayed for 3 days, but we had everything we needed and enjoyed being away from the busyness of the city. We were very close to coffee, restaurants, and even the ferry. It was extra special that we could bring our two dogs with us, they loved the trip! Thank you, would definitely come back.

Great property, we loved the location

We stayed at this property over the holiday weekend. It was great. The place was very clean and well maintained. We did cook breakfast and a few dinners during our stay. The kitchen is fully stocked with everything we needed, plus an added bonus, it had items stocked in the pantry, spices, olive oil, We would definitely stay here again.

Harborview Getaway Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Tara Property Management--you were excellent, with quick responses to questions and you provided an exceptionally clean property. The property itself is overseen by two homes, plus properties across the street, so there is little privacy outside. We would also prefer 100% cotton sheets, not polyester ones. Due to the lack of privacy, we probably wouldn't rent this home again and certainly would bring our own linens.

Nice Place

Definitely good property manager, beautiful serene place to for the views and nature. Well maintained home and well arranged on the details to use the home. Much appreciated. Recommend central air, or at least better fans arrangement. The portable AC is an accident waiting to happen on flooding the upstairs with the dehumidifier element that needs to be disabled or well labeled to prevent. All-in - would definitely recommend to a friend or stay there again. Thank you
