Pleasant studio by the sea

The studio offers a lovely view of the water, and the host communicates promptly through the VRBO messaging system. However, I did expect the studio to have air conditioning based on the listing, but it does not. While this might only be an issue for some during the summer months, I believe it's important to mention. During my stay, there was only one very warm day, so it wasn't a significant problem for me. Overall, the stay was enjoyable, and the area is beautiful. I would recommend this property.

Great Studio Space

My family had a wonderful time at Sunlight Seascape in the Studio unit. Small mini complex on the South Side of Whidbey Island. We had all necessities at our disposal with the kitchenette. Joy was a wonderful host and left a personalized note and treats upon arrival. Would stay again!

A slice of heaven/what a view

The VRBO was just what I needed for a month of rest and relaxation on Whidbey island. I would not hesitate to stay there again! The bed was comfortable and the view was spectacular. A great place to have a glass of wine at the end of the day and a view of Useless Bay and the Olympic mountains!

The perfect place to rejuvenate.

Booked the Le Studio for three nights hoping to unwind, and wasn't disappointed. Peaceful with beautiful view & AMAZING SUNSETS! Joy was very personable on phone, answering any questions prior to our arrival. Kitchen was stocked with cooking equipment, and we were able to cook breakfast & have our coffee on the private balcony overlooking Useless Bay. Perfect way to start each morning!

About the host

Hosted by Joy Abbey-Adams

I am a retired high school level French teacher, loving travel and the beauty of the gardens and architecture of Europe.

The creation of Sunlight Seascape has been my passion and joy! As a child, I spent free, endless summer days on this beach, bay, and pasture learning how to swim, dig clams, build forts, and ride horses.

Capturing the natural beauty of the sea, land, and spacious sky was my inspiration in Sunlight SeaScape’s design and construction.

Building began on the property while I was teaching advanced French classes. The passions of nature, freedom, and culture blended together in the creation of this beautiful place.

Why they chose this property

I love this Useless Bay, Sunlight Beach and surrounding pastures and mountain views. I love sharing this property and safe, friendly and stunningly beautiful Whidbey Island with my guests who also appreciate its beauty and precious resources for access to Nature.

I began designing beautiful gardens and simple, exquisite interior spaces to connect with their natural settings. This property inspires me each morning as I breathe the clean, fresh air and experience the abundant beauty of mountains, sky, ocean and activity on the beach. Pastures and forests are our land constant while dragonflies and hummingbirds soar. Sometimes a baby otter will bob its head in Useless Bay as ships pass in the straits. Sunsets in the big sky complete amazing days in all seasons. As I grew up and become a nature lover, I will always love sharing Sunlight SeaScape on Whidbey, the beautiful Northwest getaway I get to call home.

What makes this property unique

Come spend Island Time at this beautiful, unique property, Sunlight SeaScape, where you have an opportunity to reconnect with Nature's Beauty – Northwest style. Take a step back to a quieter time.

Clean, safe, friendly, unique and beautiful property and accommodations. Clean air, clean water, birds, bunnies and walks on the beach, pastures, country roads where deer greet you with an ear flick.

We are a few miles from the charming seaside town of Langley and Bayview Corner where you can shop the Farmers' Markets and local wineries, artists' galleries and unique shops.

This special area of Whidbey Island captures a gentle, authentic, retro spirit where the Earth Sanctuary, Whidbey Institute stewards the land and sea. Hike or bike beaches and forests for active relaxation.

Experience the cultural aspects of island life, including theatre, farms, music and more art, in all forms, all year.
