Nice kitchen, beautiful views and walkable to Downtown Langley.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Colonial by the sea was perfectly situated -in a quiet neighborhood overlooking the sound for a serene view from sunrise to sunset and walking distance to downtown Langley. The house was well appointed & clean. The management was responsive to any issues we had. We had fewer guests than beds. The “extra” beds wouldn’t have been long enough for my tall adult sons. We’d stay there again if we go back. Other wedding attendees agreed that we had found the best house.
Beautiful, spacious, sun-filled home with stunning view of the water. Perfect place for 4 sibling and partners to gather for wedding of sister.
We had a wonderful family vacation on the bluff! Property manager was very helpful and responsive. Beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood. Downtown Langley is close and delightful. A great place to relax and close to many adventures. We hope to stay here again someday.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed a wonderful week in this immaculately clean home. Our family (6 adults) appreciated the kitchen with large and newer refrigerator and chef's gas range/oven.Huge dining room was not only perfect for meals, but also the office (remote work), and nightly games.Multiple windows downstairs allowed abundant light and provided lovely views, not only to Saratoga Passage but also to the greenery surrounding the property.The layout of the house has plus and minuses. The sleeping spaces will work well for families with younger children or teens, but not great for three couples. A downstairs primary bedroom with large en-suite is great for one couple. Upstairs is a second large bedroom with a king bed. Another upstairs very small bedroom has two twin beds and a low ceiling one side. Unfortunately, the twin bedroom and upstairs king share a single very small bath.Downstairs is a fourth sleep area (twin) in the den, with small 3/4 bath down the hall. The sleeping arrangements overall worked ok for our family (3 adult couples), but we switched bedrooms half-way during the stay to make sleeping arrangements more equitable. Overall the other qualities of the house, the view and location would draw us back again. We'd have to plan ahead about the sleeping arrangement, though, or decide we will only be 2 couples, not 3.
This is a wonderful house with plenty of room, and it is walkable to downtown Langley. The views are spectacular!
Clean and roomy house, beautiful view and location is central so it’s easy to travel the island. Definitely recommend this location and we plan on returning.

We will be coming back to this property soon!
We would stay there again in a heartbeat.
We rented the house to get away for a long weekend. It was Me/my wife and a couple that flew out from PA to enjoy some Whidbey magic. This house was perfect for us. Plenty of space with comfortable furniture (great beds!) so that we could be together or get some solo time. Ping Pong table in the garage was a fun way to spend some time. House was well appointed with soft sheets, towels, and necessary kitchen supplies. Not only will we come back to stay at this house, my wife is now thinking about taking her annual 'girls weekend' up to this property. Communication with management company through text was exceptionally easy.
Clean, comfortable, and convenient.
