We really enjoyed this property. My husband and I stayed with our teenage son and there was something for everyone. Our son enjoyed going down to the public beach whenever he wanted to. We all enjoyed being right in town where all the action is and then we could drive to all of the beaches and hikes we wanted to go on.

Lovely Loft, Perfect Location!
The Spinnaker Studio at SeaStar Lofts could not have been more perfect for our New Year's Weekend getaway to Orcas Island! Thank you to Susan G for making our check-in the easiest possible and also for sending me community tips on NYE with the local venues. Highly recommend this little gem in Eastsound!

We stayed at the Leeward and the Spinnaker Suites on this trip to Eastsound. We felt spoiled and enjoyed staying at both places. So clean, charming, convenient and comfortable. Susan is wonderfully responsive and thoughtful. We hope to return for our 5th (!) stay again soon.

convenient and cozy
My husband and 10-month baby stayed for a wedding weekend and loved this apartment. It was the perfect size, had all the amenities we could want, including a crib for our baby and carpet space for him to practice crawling. The windows also had decent blinds for blocking out the light to help our baby nap. We loved turning on the fire heater for some added warmth and ambiance. You couldn’t ask for a more convenient walkable location. We hope to return soon!

Fabulous Unit
Bright and cheerful, well-equipped kitchen, comfy bed, huge TV, large soaker tub in deluxe bathroom. Enjoyed the bustle and people-watching on Main Street. (As advertised, there is noise from the street.) We were blown away by the amazing parks: Moran and Turtleback.

Liked: Cleanliness
Pretty slick looking unit but, being on the main street it's pretty noisy until fairly late. Up a long flight of stairs, no grab bars in shower enclosure, and worst of all, parking is a block away with a 10- minute loading zone. If you're elderly, like me, or in any way even slightly disabled, forget about it.

Perfect in every way
My daughter and I spent Mother’s Day weekend on Orcas. Perfect weather, no crowds, friendly locals, Northern Lights, beautiful sights, etc… This wonderful apartment was in the perfect spot for our adventures. Right in the middle of the shopping and dining area. Bustling and fun during the day, yet quiet at night when we slept, even with the windows open. The public beach is in the backyard with stairs right down to it. The hosts supply you with everything you may need including beach towels and flashlights in case of a power blip. The bedding and towels are soft and the king size bed is comfortable. Well-appointed kitchen and washer/dryer in the hall around the corner. Check-in and parking were easy. I highly recommend booking awesome place on Orcas!

Outstanding
The studio is spacious, full of light, has great interior design, and very friendly service. Just perfect! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need. We wish we will get a unit with a view. The location is in the center of the village on the see shore. Please take the following into consideration: this studio is good for getting away from everything, because the cell phone connection is very weak, and wi-fi was useless as best. Please don't plan to work from the island, only rest and relax.

This was a beautiful room , right in the middle of downtown. Literally in town , you are right in the middle of all the action! It was difficult to find because sign is not very big and sits above a store front. I would recommend to anyone who wants to have coffee shops, dining, drinks, and shopping right out your door. Beautifully designed, has everything you need, very spacious and relaxing. The only con I have is the bed was really hard for me, I woke up with my hip hurting. The guest pull out , squeaked when someone moved throughout the night. Overall a great place to stay and easy Instructions on accessing the unit.

Charming Comfort
This charming loft suite provided the best locale for our stay in Orcas ! It truly is centrally located in the Village of East Sound and provided the best jumping off point for exploring this wonderful island. The accommodations were everything that was advertised and the pictures tell and show everything. It is incredibly cozy; and we felt that since we were going out exploring Orcas Island; we didn't need to opt for the sea-side units. I think if we had stayed for a week, the sea-side units would have been nice, but for just exploring the island for 3 days, it's not necessary. You do hear the sounds of the village during the day, but it is a comforting level of small village busy noise (not the over-whelming blare of city noise). Yes; they do garbage pickup of the next door businesses at 6:30 on Saturday and Monday, but once again it is not a vacation ruining matter. If you are looking for absolute silence; this is not the place. If you are looking for a small town village and some of the bustle that goes with it and being located where you can walk to ALL of the restaurants and shops of East Sound; you won't do any better than this. We were thrilled with our stay. Cleanliness was excellent; and we would stay here again (no questions asked).

Very comfortable and well-connected
This was my first trip ever to Orcas Island, and I was traveling with my parents. All of us really liked Seastar! The lofts are located right in the heart of Eastsound, such a convenience - you can literally walk to every restaurant around :) There's a nice chocolaterie right across too. What's especially remarkable about this place is that it is reasonably priced and doesn't have a minimum stay requirement like most others on the San Juans, which matched well with what I was looking for! Now about the studio itself: The Spinnaker Room is very thoughtfully laid out with everything that you might need for a night or two's stay. We were staying just for the one night, and it was very homely and comfortable. It is perfect for a family of 3 like us, the sofa bed was as warm and cosy as the huge king bed! They've also provided some info, maps and books to peruse on the sights and history of Orcas. A pleasant surprise - a large variety of flavored teas in the well-stocked kitchen (my father loved that!). Last but not the least - the reservation experience was great too - the owners answered all questions promptly, were very welcoming and even provided other tourist information about Orcas. One (very) minor inconvenience was that the parking was around the corner in a lot across the side-lane - but its not a big deal. All in all - a pretty little place. Was glad I chose this: the experience and the stay were great. Will definitely recommend to my friends when they visit Orcas. Thanks a lot guys!
