About this house rental

Located in Whidbey Island, this lovely house for $583 per night is a great choice for your next trip. Whether looking for a couple's retreat, a weekend with friends, or a family getaway to build sand castles and driftwood forts, the Kingfisher Beach House is the perfect combination of architectural and natural beauty. Nestled peacefully toward the end of a forgotten beach road, this home brings the Olympic Mountains and Admiralty Inlet into every moment of your vacation. The 'Kingfisher' is so close to the beach that we built it on stilts and, from almost every angle of this angular home, you are greeted by water. At night, you will fall asleep to the chuckle of churning waves, and in the morning your eyes will open to soft light painted on the snow-capped Olympic Mountains. Once inside, you are surrounded by craftsmanship at its very best. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking and baking, and the open floor plan allows you to be part of the action while you create. The main house has three bedrooms. The master bedroom has a king-size bed, a walk through closet for stowing your stowables, and a two-headed shower to refresh you after your day of fun. Downstairs are two more bedrooms, one with a queen bed, and the other with twin-size bunk beds. The main level shower was designed after a Japanese shower room - large enough for multiples, with a deep soaking tub and showering area all in this same room. Feel free to let your kids splash until their splashers are tired, as this entire room was designed to get wet. This home was just completed and is now ready for you and your friends and family to relax at the beach. While staying at the Kingfisher, you will experience this wonderful beach location with the comfort and privacy rarely experienced on beach property. Walk 200 yards south down the beach and you will be exploring over a mile of undeveloped, protected beach and tidelands. On any given walk, you and your friends and family will be sharing this space with kingfishers, eagles, osprey, seals, otters, and all of the tide-pool critters that live in the shallows of the Puget Sound. Keep your eyes on the water while you are cooking dinner or sitting on the deck and you might also see the porpoises patrol the beach. Please note that during the salmon run you can put on your hip-waders, secure a buzz bomb to your favorite pole, and cast with abandon. It is a well-kept, local secret that this beach yields some of the best salmon fishing on the island. If you have kayaks, bring them along, for a quick shove off from your beach will have you exploring some of the most beautiful coastline on South Whidbey. The house has WiFi and smart TV, and is the perfect place to sit by the fire and watch the game. The deck has Adirondack chairs to lounge in and a propane grill at the ready so that you can feed the loungers. I guess the big rule for the house is to have fun - lots of it! My main, humble asking is that you treat our family home with respect. We love this place! The home was built so that your family and mine can enjoy the beach for years to come. Thank you so much for your interest and please enjoy the beach. Andy and Maggie Quick note about our Covid-19 protocol: Thank you for your interest in spending some quality family time at the beach. Before you book, we would like to write this quick note to hopefully quell any Coronavirus concerns you might have about coming out to vacation at the Kingfisher Beach House. We want you to know that we are taking this virus very seriously, and also that our cleaner is vaccinated and amazing! She thoroughly cleans all surfaces, door handles, cabinet handles, appliances, window frames, finish work around doors, remotes,... well, pretty much anything handled by guests in the house, with bleach and alcohol-based solvents. We want you to be comfortable and relaxed when you come to the house so please book with confidence. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Thank you, and we look forward to hearing from you.

The Kingfisher Beach House is our favorite place to rent on Whidbey Island. The location is convenient to the ferry and the charming town of Langley. However, once you enter this gorgeous home, you may never want to leave! The house is pristine and elegant in design and function. From the fully stocked kitchen to the spa like showers, we were able to fully relax and enjoy our winter vacation. Every day was spent walking the beach for hours at low tide, watching birds and crashing waves, breathing in fresh ocean air. Our stay was truly enhanced by the thoughtful owner via messages and a wonderful welcome gift from local businesses. Thanks to Andy for the best impromptu getaway during the busy holiday season. It was effortless, rejuvenating and such a wonderful place to bond with our family.

We stayed for 3 nights, and it was lovely. Check in/check out couldn't have been easier. The house is thoughtfully designed and appointed. The kitchen has everything you will need to cook. The primary bed, is super comfortable. We didn't use the others. The main attraction however, is the proximity to the beach. The tide was out in the early morning and late afternoon, perfect for walking. There is a easy to use fire pit in the backyard, really beautiful ambience. And the locations is fantastic. It feels very private and yet you are close to everything. I hope to return again soon! Thank you!

Truly the most magical birthday getaway. This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed in and we loved every minute of our stay. Andy was communicative and so helpful from check in and beyond. We loved our beach walks, morning coffee and cooking in the beautiful kitchen. We can't wait to return!

Kingfisher Beach House is a superb location for simply checking out, or for exploring Whidbey Island. Nested at the very end of the road, it is quiet and private. It would be highly suitable for littles on bikes to safely ride around. The beach is very accessible, even for the grandparents. The views. Wow. Bring your binoculars and your camera. So much natural light. Very nice on a winter day. Comfy beds, nice towels, well equipped kitchen - win. I reccommend it and would go back.

Wonderful stay for a long birthday weekend. The kitchen and house are very well stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The views simply can't be beat and the beach access is only a few feet away. Wonderful design and use of natural light. The king bed and upper loft area were a real treat. We found the water pressure in the showers to be very light (even when only one was on) but it just required some patience.
