Beachfront holiday rental in Strait of Juan de Fuca

Such a beautiful spot next to the water! Also includes the best hammock to take a nap in :)

The Swell House is the best home we have ever stayed at, anywhere, in the past 10+ years we've been on Airbnb. Waking up to beautiful views of the water, the sound of the waves, sipping a warm mug of coffee while bird watching, are just the start of each incredible day of our weekend. We also decompressed in the private sauna facing the water at sunset. Inside the home, every room was stocked with everything you could possibly need, including some personal touches and extreme attention to detail. The expansive yard was perfect for our dogs, and also had a bountiful garden growing fresh veggies. We enjoyed using the grill each night accompanied by the produce. In the evenings, we relaxed by the wood burning stove and listened to the record collection. Throughout the weekend I barely used my phone as I felt so relaxed and connected with the coast. We will definitely be visiting again and we look forward to our next stay at the Swell House!

We really enjoyed our stay. Key highlight was sitting in the hot tub and watching the weather roll across the water. Kristen is an excellent host

Absolutely stunning. We will be back. The upper master bedroom suite is jaw-droppingly gorgeous...we gave this room to our friends who were in need of rest and serenity, and we took the first level room that was nice but paled incomparision. Cannot wait to return!

Tiffany was a wonderful host. Her home was clean, peaceful, and the trees were filled with songbirds. There was even a family of deer that stopped by daily. Great private location. We would love to stay here again.

Fantastic stay and delivered the solitude in nature that I was looking for. It was a great way to experience the San Juans. The view was stunning, the access to the beach was stellar, and one of the best ways to spend a few days relaxing. The loaner vehicle was perfect to get us from dock to house. Reminder, for anyone looking to book this airBNB, please be mindful of what you pack and bring as there is no store to quickly run to if you forgot something. Also, you need to pack out your recyclables & non-compostables. Overall, would stay again and have already recommended it to others as an Eco-friendly vacation destination.

Amazing cozy place for 2-4 people. Exactly as described and the place is kept well. We loved our stay here!!

What an amazing home!! We loved the cottage decor with all the little nooks to hang out, books and games, telescope, cozy blankets. The views from the living room and patio were spectacular. We spent our mornings watching hundreds of herons fishing in the low tide! Walking down the beach to the southern point was so quiet and peaceful. Then ending our nights back out on the patio with a fire - such a relaxing time. Dawn’s home was also so great for our pup. He loved basking in the sun on the patio and exploring the water just steps away. Driving the short loop toward the ferry is well worth the amazing view of Mt Baker, and we enjoyed a little ferry trip to Lummi island, although the cottage is so comfortable and relaxing, we would have been happy not leaving at all during the day too!

Such a lovely Airbnb in a beautiful location. The place was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay, thank you for hosting us!

Beautiful condo, full of amenities, comfy bed, gorgeous views. Perfect for longer stays. We were only there for a couple of nights, making it hard to justify all the air BnB fees, but not the hosts fault. Would certainly rent again when we have longer time to visit my grandsons.

What a great spot! Nestled in the woods in a peaceful and quiet setting this place is truly one-of-a-kind. The house is very unique with lots of character that sets it apart from the usual stays. It was clean and had all we needed. Our host Gramma Rikki was exceptionally warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate, and we could not take advantage of all the outdoor spaces and amenities. We played pool, sat by the cozy fire and did some island exploring by car. All in all it was a very enjoyable and relaxing getaway despite the crummy weather. We hope to return one day and experience everything this wonderful place has to offer.

The only complaint I have is the bed in the bedroom. Could not sleep on it very squeaky, wiggly, mattress very lumpy.. needs a foam mattress and new frame. It was so uncomfortable. Thank god the couch was comfortable. Hopefully he will replace the bed by the next time I stay.

Place was gorgeous, Iris was a sweet and responsive host. We will be back again 100%

We loved staying at Deanna’s. The resort was excellent and the kids had a blast. Lots of games in the unit, kitchen was well equipped for 2 adults and 3 kids under 12. Beach was great and when it rained, the heated indoor pool and games room was amazing!

This is our second time staying here and we loved it! Close to the beach, restaurants and the club house with the games room and pool is great for kiddos. We have made Birch Bay a yearly trip and love this spot!

We had an amazing stay at Scott's place! The house was very well equipped and perfect for our family with kids. The view and backyard were incredible! Scott was extremely responsive and helpful. We highly recommend this listing.

Though previous guest lost 2 canoe, the host informed me the situation. The place let us forget the pity and we really had great time.

Gorgeous space and location! Having 2 outdoor spaces with lots of seating was amazing. The beds are comfy; the windows make it seem like you are in the trees. Great little book with tips for the area. I would stay again!

We had a phenomenal stay. Even before travel the hosts were so helpful with recommendations. The home is in great shape, has an amazing view, and is well stocked. Their attention to detail goes above and beyond - they provide all you could ask for. We loved our stay and would absolutely stay again!

Like a beach house in a movie. Truly beautiful. The spot is quiet and peaceful, nothing to distract from enjoying the ocean. The hosts were super friendly and very responsive to the few questions we had. 👍👍👍

A beautiful cottage by the sea, with great styling and all the amenities you could ask for, all cleverly hidden away. We opened the door to a beautiful living room, perfect for late night movies, a bottle of wine in the kitchen with any appliance we needed, a spacious shower, and a bedroom with a view right into the water. The hot tub and fireplace were right outside, and the sound of the ocean crashing while relaxing couldn’t be beat. Even though we live just a few minutes up the road, we would consider doing another visit just because of how beautiful the place was and how amazing they were to work with!

Spend one of the best weekends at Danielle’s place. Comfortable and clean, great location for the perfect getaway. Highly recommended!

We had such a wonderful stay at Christine and Robert's place. It is such a beautiful home and oasis, just as promised. We enjoyed a beautiful evening in the hot tub overlooking the stunning view. Thank you so much for such a peaceful experience.

This cabin was just what I had hoped for a relaxing getaway. Although not new construction, it had an old house charm with updated features. It definitely felt like it has been well loved and lived in, but still clean and well kept. It did have everything we could have needed for our trip. Our kids enjoyed playing games and ping pong in the basement, as well as exploring the gardens and beach. The beach at low tide was a spectacular treasure hunt to see all sorts of sea creatures, shells, animals and birds. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner every night. The views from the living room and deck were incredible. It was so peaceful and quiet, I could have enjoyed that spot forever.
