Guest Reviews

• Dan (10/5): -
• Tuyen (10/5): -
• Kim (9/5): Relaxing and convenient, walk to everything. - So wonderful to have a pool & hot tub! Good location. Nice to have coffee and snacks. The room was a bit dark, not enough lighting. This seems to be a common problem in hotel rooms these days, especially when there is no ceiling light. Meanwhile, the bedside reading lights were really bright, but that's good. And not sure the description really matched the actual room...it was like a normal hotel room, not a modern studio or something.
• catherine (8/5): Nice comfortable place. - Location and large room Lightning in room. Difficult to use mirror due to poor lighting
• Joseph (8/5): -
• Melissa (5/5): It was OK - Beds and pillows Dirty fake finger nail in bathroom corner
• Kirsi (8/5): -
• Ketan (10/5): Ideal spot for families with kids - Great location and great staff. Super friendly, excellent pool for kids.
• sumersfree (6/5): Beware the dog fine - Clean and conveniently located. Nothing special. Tip for travelers with dogs: while advertised as a dog-friendly hotel, there is a $250 charge if you leave your dog in your hotel room OR in your car. So no way to enjoy the pool or spa. My little dog travels often with me and is very happy to snooze in her car bed or travel crate while I am away for short periods (obviously I am mindful of temperature and other factors), but I did not want to take the chance of a $250 fine. On the other hand, they do provide dog bowls and a convenient dog walk area, so that was helpful. But I'll find another place to stay next time I visit.
• Kirsi (8/5): -
• Cory (10/5): -
• Justin (7/5): I felt it was slightly overpriced for the time of year. It was in the accommodations. - Location was great, facilities were clean.
• Iryna (10/5): -
• Janine (9/5): -
• Karla (7/5): -
• julia (7/5): Overall great in a perfect location. More than serviceable launch pad to stay in. Thank you! - pool/ sauna/ gym No breakfast, carpeted room/ slightly outdated
• Christine (8/5): -
• Kristine (10/5): Great place> - Location was wonderful, pool plus coffee/breakfast stand was great to have on-site. Staff was very helpful to get us into our room early since we could only book the 6AM boat and we had a wedding rehearsal dinner to go to at 4:00. Bathroom was too small to get in and out of comfortably and we are not big people.
• Nancy (8/5): We loved Friday Harbor and Earthbox is the perfect location to explore the island! - The hotel is so conveniently located and the property is well maintained! Our room was spacious, very clean and comfortable! We loved the products, towels, etc. The Spa was very clean and accessible. Thank you, Nancy Strand The only issue we had was the room over us (we were 336) and next to us both had families that allowed their young children to race around screaming between 10pm-12 am. We thought it was odd and would stop but on the 2nd& 3rd night (we had an early ferry the next morning) we tried to call the office to intervene but of course no one is on duty. Perhaps you could gently advise guests of a noise courtesy after 11pm?
• Shari (10/5): -
• Kathleen (7/5): -
• Kathleen (7/5): -
• Emily (10/5): - Close to restaurants and stores. Small room but comfortable. Would stay at again!
• Kimberly (10/5): - Great place! Rooms are clean, check-in process was easy. The property was well maintained and was the perfect spot. Convenient to everything. We will definitely be back!!
• Varda (8/5): -
• gerald (6/5): - Motel style rooms with a spa overlay
• Ursula (10/5): It was a short but comfortable and wonderful stay! - It was in downtown Friday harbor close to everything. N/A
• jmd5667 (10/5): Wonderful Choice in Friday Harbor - Great accommodations, clean, good location, friendly helpful staff, quiet only 4 blocks along main st. from ferry terminal. Room was comfortable & large but shower/ toilet area a bit cramped. Did not have a chance to use pool or hot tub but the area and facilities were very clean as well as inviting. Parking by room was at a premium. Overall great stay wish we could have stayed longer.
• Soumyadeep (10/5): Quite, family-friendly home away from home. - The hotel was in a very convenient location. Perfect for your fur babies to take on a walk. The room was clean and well equipped to host our 1 year old and 2 dogs. We had a lovely time. The hotel manager had excellent suggestions to explore on the island. Will definitely will stay with them next time.
• Paige (10/5): - Close to downtown area and easily walkable from the ferry without the need for a car.
• gerri (10/5): - We had a beautiful updated room with a king sized bed. Comfortable robes. Everything you need is in the room. There is a pool and a jacuzzi. We could walk to anywhere downtown. This is the best place to stay, for sure!
• Katheen (10/5): - Very pet friendly
• Sheryl (10/5): - This is our second time staying here, but not our last! We really like it!
• Cathie (9/5): -
• Deborah (9/5): Lovely spot for a Friday Harbor visit, and easy walking distance from the Ferry. - Beautiful setting, lovely rooms, nice small pool
• unikuorn (8/5): Convenient and clean - Stayed as part of a group for 3 nights at this motor lodge style inn. Our 2nd floor room had 2 dbl beds and vaulted ceiling, small balcony with table and chairs facing an unscenic view of post office. Beds were comfortable, room spacious, bathroom spacious, and coffee maker, pods, and locally made shampoos, lotion, soap and conditioner provided. Housekeeping service daily and well done, but room shows use and age. Convenient location near town, but not in the middle of town. First time staying on island, so next time will try another place.
• Deb (7/5): -
• teresamA6954MU (6/5): Great Location - Room Not So Much - Recently stayed here for 2 nights. Traveling with my granddaughter. Stayed in Bldg A. Our room was very dated. It was dark and depressing. No carpet. Poorly lit room. Very small, shallow bathtub. Beds were ok, not the greatest but not the worst. Tried to communicate with a woman from housekeeping but they did not speak English other than a couple of words. The location was great. Just a few steps from restaurants and shops. Given the room rates, I would choose another property if I go back.
• Xiaofeng (10/5): - The family room of the hotel is surprisingly great. It's basically two rooms for one unit with two baths. And the staffs are very friendly.
• Jennifer (4/5): Skip it, find a better location. - + Pet friendly. Close access to Friday harbor. East online check in. Housekeeping staff is friendly and polite. - Walls are thin, you will hear EVERY conversation your neighbors have. Adjoining rooms also have no sound proofing. Front office is usually closed. 4/5 times I went down to the front it was closed. Price point does not come close to matching the offered amenities. Anywhere else this would be a 2.5 star motel room, but they charge $350/night because it’s a busy place. Front desk staff was rude when I cancelled my second night due to 2am drunken neighbor and noise issues. Mildew on the shower curtain. Lacks attention to detail and regular upkeep is not completed.
• Gantulga (10/5): - Comfortable and quiet Easy parking
• David (10/5): - Close to restaurants, close to town, all very walkable.
• Aileen (10/5): - The coffee shop was a bonus! It would be great to have some place to sit outside closer to the unit
• ciarellejim_nezm2025 (10/5): Excellent, Clean Family Friendly - We absolutely love visiting Eachbox Inn and Spa every Labor Day with our family and extended families. They always do such a wonderful job of accommodating us, making sure our rooms are reasonably close to each other so we can really enjoy our time together. The cleaning staff is incredible—always kind, quick, and thorough—and the front desk team is consistently friendly and efficient. It’s truly a great inn, and we hope to keep returning for many years to come!
• Ciarelle (10/5): Excellent! - We absolutely love visiting Eachbox Inn and Spa every Labor Day with our family and extended families. They always do such a wonderful job of accommodating us, making sure our rooms are reasonably close to each other so we can really enjoy our time together. The cleaning staff is incredible—always kind, quick, and thorough—and the front desk team is consistently friendly and efficient. It’s truly a great inn, and we hope to keep returning for many years to come! More towels in the pool area, we ran out but the front desk did take care of it right away!
• Pavel (10/5): - Very friendly staff. Place got everything you need and in OK shape. Walkable to everything. Would stay there again.
• Kerry (8/5): Great weekend in Friday Harbor - Great location. Set back off the street nice & quiet. Easy walk to the center of town. Very nice gardens and landscape. Rooms are large and clean. Property is old and could use updating. The bed wasn’t very comfortable. High price for the quality
• Petra (7/5): Quaint stay in Friday Harbor - Close to downtown Breakfast option’s limited Backyard was not as pretty as the front of the property
• kevincN9957JG (10/5): Location, location, location AND kind attention! - This was my husband's first visit to San Juan Island. I'd never overnighted on the island before. Earthbox Inn and Spa were perfect for us. From the perfect location and the cleanliness of the room to the kind and generous attention given to us by the staff, I can't imagine having a more positive experience. Thanks to Bailey and all of the staff!
• Sachio (8/5): - The location is excellent, and the check-in and check-out process was very easy.
• Toni (10/5): Great time - First time in Friday Harbor. Very enjoyable
• SUE (10/5): - East access to the ferry terminal. Clean and gf friendly staff. Water station is great!
• Matthew (10/5): - Location and service were both great. Room was slightly showing its age but for an island, it was alright. Bathroom could have been cleaner.
• Paul (10/5): Perfect size; like a cruise ship stateroom and right in town. - Earthbox is right in town but still feels private with a courtyard and quiet sitting area. The staff was amazing and helpful. The rooms are small but perfect for two and our room had a semi-private deck. Will book again. The internet was spotty and the directv signal was in and out 10% of the time. I think I have enough words now to qualify my review... of Earthbox.
• Allard (7/5): -
• Darren (10/5): - Well maintained property reminiscent of a classic Tahoe getaway. A bit pricey for a quick business trip when I was too busy to fully enjoy the amenities on offer, but I’ll remember it for future visits.
• Audrey (10/5): Very convenient and comfortable place to stay. I would stay here again. - Easy walk, gently uphill, from city center and the ferry landing dock. Great location with access to restaurant and other services
• Chatsworth2014 (10/5): Pleasantly Surprised - We booked this hotel kind of last minute, and weren't sure what we were getting. We thought it might be dated and dim. We were pleasantly surprised! It is a beautiful little property. Rooms are clean and updated. Check in/out was nicely organized. The front desk folks were very helpful. It was an easy walk to all the shops, restaurants, ferry, and excursions from Friday Harbor. It is a bit on the expensive side for what it is, but understandable since on an island. I would definitely stay again.
• Amy (8/5): - The only thing we didn’t like, we found ants on the countertop.
• Cynthia (10/5): - We stayed at the EarthBox Inn for three nights while we biked the San Juans! Lovely spot to come back to each night! Beds and pillows were great and shower was nice. The location is excellent! We never moved our car once we parked it because everything is within walking distance. Had some lovely meals at the brewery which is just blocks away. Highly recommend the EarthBox!!
• Anthony (10/5): - We had a great time. The hotel's convenient location and clean, comfortable rooms made our stay wonderful.
• Jessica (10/5): - Great place! Close to everything and quiet!
• florian (8/5): Très bien, chambres spacieuses et bien équipées. Manque un peu d’isolation sonore, pour le prix qui est assez élevé. - Chambre spacieuse et confortable. Bien équipé et une conscience écologique appréciée. La clime est tres bruyante, mais pas seulement la clime de notre chambre, la clime des chambres voisines aussi, on les entends depuis la chambre, même les portes fermées.
• Craig (10/5): - Comfortable property. Convenient to downtown. Small, clean room
• Arley (2/5): - Room service knocked on door at 8-9am repeatedly after I told them we did not want service. Desk service was even worse, required us to move rooms in middle of stay. The room was old, dated, musty and unclean. Would not recommend for the price.
• Vicki (10/5): Very Relaxing! - They welcomed us very nicely and let us check in early . We were very tired because we took the ferry at 4 am, so it was nice to get in the room relax and go to the pool. The people above us made a lot of noise
• Krista (8/5): -
• Robert (10/5): - This place is a clean and comfortable place to stay. They have put a lot of thought into everything. Very attentive staff and would stay here again. Stayed here 22 years ago and again this year 2025. Happy both times. Walkable to Friday Harbor and beyond.
• Donald (10/5): - The check-in/check-out process was simple and easy, the room was basic but clean and comfortable, it was quiet, and we were very close to everything. I thought the room was overpriced, but otherwise everything was good.
• arash (10/5): - Walking distance to harbor and stores and restaurants. Very quiet. Parking space is very limited. This motel is very expensive. And rooms are not fancy or anything to justify the price. Very friendly staff.
• Dreamer59530435195 (10/5): Friendly service right on the main street - Based on other ratings, pictures and reviews we booked 2 nights at Earthbox. We arrived before check in on our whale watching tour boat and the friendly staff at Earthbox securely held on to our baggage so we could explore the town. This was a nice service that allowed us to roam much more freely. We received a text as soon as our rooms were ready. The lobby and grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The hotel is right on Spring Street, the main tourist path, close to shops & the harbor. We walked everywhere and the hotel was easy to get to. Quiet hours were adhered to by guests and in the morning we could walk right over to their coffee shop with plenty of seating to choose from. They had local soap, lotion, shampoo and conditioner to use with a wonderful herbal scent. We also made use of their hot tub & pool, which was well maintained and a great feature. Check out was easy and even after the kind staff held on to our luggage until our boat arrived. We will definitely be booking here again in the future!
• Kimberly (10/5): - Earthbox was situated right downtown, no need to bring your car, easy to check in, buildings were clearly marked, room was clean and had plenty of coffee, and soaps. I will be back!
• Pam (10/5): -
• Kimberly (10/5): - Excellent location near all of Friday Harbor dining/shopping/excursions. It’s about 4 blocks from the ferry terminal (up a gradual hill). The separate toilet/shower area of the bathroom is really small, so not great if you are a large person. Otherwise, very clean, fridge and microwave, and nice locally made soaps! On-site coffee bar/light breakfast space is nice.
• Christine (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location, so close to ferry, shops, and restaurants. Great property, rooms were clean, nice outdoor areas.
• JENNIFER (10/5): - accommodating and friendly staff great location easy to walk to anything
• Joan Mason (10/5): - Lovely spot And great location.
• Marijo (8/5): - The location is perfect as it’s right in the middle of Friday Harbor. But it’s very pricey for what it’s worth. It’s also extremely noisy as it’s a motel set up so people are constantly walking by.
• Roxanne (10/5): - Loved this location. Food and shops within blocks. Amenities were great. I appreciate the eco consciousness of island life. Would definitely stay again.
• Brian (8/5): - Great and convenient location with good and free parking. It’s a short walk to everything in Friday Harbor. Breakfast is not included and options are limited but there are nearby restaurants. I think they only have queen sized beds - but ours was nice. I was a little surprised that many places on the island are closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays but it is less crowded and quiet on those days.
• Jamie (10/5): - We liked the location and the pool for the kids.
• Volcam (10/5): Great location, smartly designed room, relaxing ambience. - The hotel is on Spring Street within pleasant walking distance to numerous shops, restaurants, and attractions. Our refurbished room is smartly designed and thoughtfully furnished. Check-in was easy and was done via online technology. For our 1-night stay on a 2-day trip from Anacortes to Friday Harbor, the hotel was ideal. We would definitely stay here again when returning to Friday Harbor. I have nothing to state.
• Kate (10/5): would go again! - booking & check in stream lined and easy, and when the team texted and offered concierge services they weren't kidding! they got back to me promptly about a dinner question that turned out to be the highlight of our entire 2 week vacation. and were also very responsive and helpful when we needed to seek medical help on the island. apart from these services, having the pool there for my kids was awesome post-national parks, and rooms were clean and comfortable for a peaceful night's sleep for my family.
• 55rdss (10/5): Nicely equipped, clean comfy and great location - The room was very clean and well equipped, and the location was excellent. The bed was very comfortable and it was an easy walk to all of Friday harbor. Parking was easy and the coffee shop on site was a nice perk. We stayed 3 nights and will look to come back on our next visit.
• Lily (8/5): Lovely property grounds, good location, comfortable beds. - The shower gel and body lotion were very fragrant. I love them. Beds are comfortable. The room seems a bit dark
• Debbie (10/5): - Friday Harbor is such a special place, and Earthbox was a great home base for our 2 night stay. Easy walking distance to restaurants, shopping and the Farmer's Market Saturday morning.
• Judy (8/5): - Okay
• Charles (9/5): Superb -
• Karin (9/5): We felt at home at EarthBox and would come again! - I especially liked the beauty and tidiness, elegant quality of the doors and fittings, every detail of the decor and grounds; it lent a special relaxation . Though the bathroom was luxuriously large, the bedroom was a bit close, though nothing to complain about, for it is part of the history and economy of energy I also appreciate.
• Ed (10/5): Summer 25 - Good location, great pool
• Eric (10/5): - Nice place
• Sergio (2/5): - The rooms were not updated and walls were paper thin.
• Sarah (8/5): Very good -
• Glenn (9/5): Just what was wanted. - Nice room, quiet, staff was very helpful with storing out luggage while we went on a week-long kayak trip. The in-house coffee shop's cortado was very good.
• Leslie (8/5): - Great location and pretty property. Convenient to walking anywhere and love that there is a little coffee shop on property. Also nice little places to sit down and just relax. Feels like a cozy place among the busy little town. Clean rooms. Two small issues w the place - one was that the cleaning staff was loud and yelling outside of our windows (albeit they were nice) and the second is that it seems like a bit expensive for a fairly basic room. However overall would still recommend the property as they did a nice job with what they inherited!
• William (9/5): Great place to stay in Fridat Harbor - Good location. Gym, sauna, pool, coffee shop. Room was small
• Johnson (10/5): Basically you're in the middle of town. Every which way you walked there was something to do - What breakfast???, location was fabulous, could not be any better. Besides the lock on the pool door acting up a little bit. And the sheets on the one bed, not getting changed, because of something spilled. everything was fantastic. I couldn't ask for better service at all.
• Jeff M (8/5): A stop in Friday Harbor - Typical Motel. Small bathroom.
• IHuey (10/5): - Everything is great here! Beautiful property. Convenient location. Comfortable and clean room and beds. Love it!
• Jerry (10/5): - Staff was great and very accommodating during a busy 4th of July weekend
