Stayed Apr 15, 2026We had a wonderful one night stay at the Sunset Beach Cottage & wish we would have been able to stay longer. It’s a gorgeous property, gardens & beachfront, & the cottage itself is adorable. Well appointed kitchen & bathroom & cozy throughout. My Grandma Mackie grew up on Maxwelton beach in the early 1900’s and the little park on the beach is named after her family so it was fun to walk in her footsteps on the beach with our dog (& yes the pet friendly was a huge positive for us). I grew up on S. Whidbey and we raised our kids there so it was great to be back in our old stomping grounds and Paula was a wonderful host with easy communications. We will definitely try to return when the weather is better & the tide flats warm up the water for swimming and beach activities!Michele I.

There was a water dispenser we couldn't figure out how to use (would have loved that for hot water for tea), but the tap water on Whidbey is fine and there were pots to heat water in! We'll definitely be back.

Stayed Apr 20, 2025This is a terrific property for a quick weekend getaway. We spent a single night here and it was beautiful. The home itself is small but cozy, had everything we need to make breakfast lunch and dinner, including a BBQ outside. Unforunately it was rainging for half our stay so we didnt get to utilize the back patio furniture and firepit but those looked lovely as well. The beds were comfortable and had no smells or issues. Listening to the waves crash at night was one of my favorite things of this stay. I would highly recommend it and would love to book again in the future.

Stayed Jun 25, 2025My husband and I stayed here for three nights with our two grandchildren. The cottage is very small and cozy; when the trundle is in use in the twin bedroom, the door can't be closed so we all went to bed at the same time. This is included in the property description, but I wanted to mention it for anyone planning to have two people in the twin bedroom. The location is very near the ferry terminal and Langley. At high tide, the water laps up almost to the edge of the patio. We had fun grilling at night and having s'mores over the fire pit. Firewood, kindling and tongs were thoughtfully provided. The garden flowers made it even more beautiful to sit on the patio and enjoy the view.

Stayed Jun 20, 2025The cabin was clean and the door code worked. Instructions inside stated there was a key, but I did not find one. Even thought the advertising stated this was not refundable, I reached out to owner twice to see if I could change dates or find someone else to rent. My event was cancelled so had no reason to come to South Whidbey. I received no communication back from Owner. I would have been ok with a no, but would liked to have had some response. Patio was great, beach walking was fabulous. Propane tank was empty on bbq. Bed was comfortable. Went to Farmers Market on Saturday and loved that experience. Came back to cabin and found the owner there potting plants. I explained I would have like to have had some notice, but was not ok with her being on site. She left.The is definitely for the beach and view.

Stayed Jun 8, 2025We loved Sunset Cottage for the views from bedroom and living area. It is small but well laid out. The garden was a big plus that we really enjoyed. There is some street noise but it was quiet at night. It was very hot during our stay so we could leave windows and doors open and hear the sound of the water. Lots of birds in area both on the water and on the other side of the street where there are open farm fields. The house was very clean although the refrigerator could of used a better cleaning. On our last night someone across the street had been doing some open trash or yard waste burning. There were very big billows of smoke that the wind blew across the street. The burning was left unattended and smoked all night which meant we needed to close all the windows and doors which was very disappointing. We didn't contact Paula regarding the smoke since it was our last night there and we didn't know if there was anything she could do. Paula left some beautiful flowers for our arrival that we appreciated. In spite of the smoke incident we would stay here again. Wonderful location and very sweet cottage.

Stayed Oct 20, 2024We had a wonderful stay. The location, view and cleanliness of the property were all fabulous. We are planners and like to know everything in advance. We never saw/received check-in instructions from the property owner and were a bit panicked on the day. It would have been nice for the confirmation email (with additional information) to have included a line indicating that Door code will populate in App at allowed check-in time. It was stressful.
