About
You will feel like you’re living in a postcard when you stay at The Ferry Landing Suites! The Yakima Suite is a large loft located on the upper level of a landmark Victorian house, right in the heart of historic Friday Harbor. There is no accommodation more convenient for walking from the ferry landing or seaplane dock should you choose to leave the car behind on the mainland! But when you do bring the car, there is a coveted on-site parking space reserved just for you.
You will find all the attractions and activities that Friday Harbor has to offer within a short stroll, including whale watching excursions, kayak adventures, local shops, fine galleries, theater, and an eclectic selection of restaurants. As an added bonus, there’s a coffee shop on the lower level where you can sip your morning latte, enjoy fresh baked goods, or enjoy a fresh fruit smoothie. During the summer, perch up on your balcony above the bustling street to enjoying watching the ferries glide in and out of the harbor. During the fall and winter months, you will find the Yakima a wonderful place to snuggle up indoors and enjoy the quiet, reflective atmosphere cherished by the locals.
The Yakima Suite is beautifully furnished, featuring a queen size bed tucked into a romantic alcove with a skylight above so you can count the stars. The living area is spacious, offering a sleeper sofa, kitchenette, and dining table. When visiting the San Juan Islands, this is the perfect choice for one or more.
Interim cleaning is available on request.

Amazing location
James D., Seattle, WA United States
Perfect Friday Harbor Escape
Brian B., Camano Island, WA United States
Really fun location with amenities within walking distance. The place was clean and had a cool vibe.
Fantastic View and Accomodations!
Scott L., Mountlake Terrace, WA United States
Could not have asked for a better place to stay. Just at the end of the ferry dock over looking the marina. Very comfortable bed, kitchenette, Smart tv, desk overlooking the harbor. Warm and comfortable living area.
Two decks, one facing North the othe to the west. Weather was wintery and brisk but there were no drafts and electric "fireplace" and Forced heating kept us very cozy.
Only drawback to its location is if you are a light sleeper. It is located by the ferry dock so expect the early morning loading traffic noise. did not bother me as I sleep through anything, my Spouse is not. But worth the View.
Breath taking
Michael T., Covington, WA United States
We had a great stay at the Yakima Suite. It was very close to all of the little shops and restaurants. Also, the view was beyond amazing. We had a great stay and will be renting this amazing place again.
The Friday Harbor Yakima Suite, a review by Jake Brigham
Jake B., Seattle, WA United States
The Friday Harbor Yakima Suite was nothing less than a perfect reprieve from the monotony of working full time during a global pandemic while trying to cultivate an intimate and meaningful relationship with your partner. The quaint town offered the much needed relaxation, as well as the requisite adventure to make the trip one worth replicating at some point in the future. Our abode was nicely prepared and it embraced nicely our expectations of the view of the harbor as well as the unbeatable location. The living area was in fact more spacious than the pictures would lead one to initially believe. I can only hope others will experience the same satisfaction of staying at the Yakima Suite as my partner and I did. Cheers to the great Pacific Northwest, and it's subtle enjoyments.
So nice and cozy
matthew k., Vancouver, wa United States
We rented the top part of the home, that is a beautiful (fairly large) studio unit. Our relatives rented the lower two bedroom section of the home. Both apartments are amazing and both overlook the Washington State Ferry boats. There is a coffee shop below the apartments that is a little noisy in the early mornings but it really didn't bother us at all. Stay in either units. You will not regret it.

Absolutely Perfect
Craig L., Chattanooga, TN United States
We come to Friday Harbor every year for our anniversary. Many times we have looked at this unit from the rooftop bar next door and talked about how nice it would be to stay there. This was finally the year. The location, the view, the amenities. Everything about this place is perfect (with the exception of a tiny bar sink in the kitchenette, that is just dumb) We will stay here again and again.
Beautiful Location
Recent Guest, Mukilteo, WA United States
This is by far the best location you can find to stay at Friday Harbor. Beautiful views, right in the heart of Friday Harbor. The suite is clean and absolutely adorable. We loved everything about this place except the bed and pillows.
The bed is so uncomfortable we couldn’t sleep well. The pillows are so flat and there are not enough of them. I really hope the management gets a new bed and bedding so we can come back and stay again. As much as I love this place the mattress is a deal breaker.
Great island escape loca
Michael U., Mountain View, CA United States
The location of the unit was perfect. In the heart of Friday harbor with amazing views of the harbor and ferry.
an Exceptional weekend in Friday Harbor
Susan V., Portland, OR United States
Very cute and accommodating room. The appliances were perfect for the space. LOVED the view for the ferry landing. Good people watching and car "shopping".
We have stayed a half dozen times on San Juan and this location was definitely my favorite.
Yakima Suite Stay
Recent Guest, Poulsbo, WA United States
Cleanliness and set up is great! All amenities were provided including kitchen utensils. Good security lights around the premises but lacking security cameras. One big concern that I had was the sensor lights: At night, It actively triggers only for guest coming up but trigger delay for downward traffic flow. It appeared that the sensor is partially blocked. This sensor delay had caused me to trip thus stepping on two rungs downward where almost lose my balance also triggering my vehicle fob in my hand. Additionally, I was expecting the rental home instructions and entry code at least a night prior but none arrived. An employee sent me the requested instructions and code 5 hours prior to and while en route to the island. The reservation wa apologetic for the inconvenience. I would rate our stay as 3 of 5 stars.
Yakima Suite Weekend
Charles Q., Portland, OR United States
Would unequivocally recommend this unit. Great location, centrally located, walk to everything in Friday Harbor, and stunning views of the harbor. My only quibble would be that it can at times be a little noisy given that it is right on the harbor but this was my third visit so I personally don't find the occasional noise at all problematic.
Relaxing Stay Near Eveyrthing
Jacob H., Livonia, MI United States
We loved our stay in the Yakima Suite. The location to everything in the city allowed us to park our car for the majority of the trip and walk to the resturaunts and tours. Sitting on the balcony each night and watching the ferries come and go make for a relaxing night. While it was very convientent to be able to walk to everything in town, it is a short drive to everything on the island. Take a trip to Lime Kiln State park, its beautiful. We loved or stay and are already planning our next trip

Mike R., Sioux City, Iowa United States
The Yakima Suite on Friday Harbor was nothing short of fantastic. Very clean, well appointed, classy and breathtaking views. Two separate patios. Very quiet. I will rent the same suite on my next trip to Friday Harbor. The staff of San Juan Vacations were super nice and top notch professionals. Michael Rodriguez
A Room With A View
Recent Guest, Yakima, WA United States
We loved staying in the Yakima Suite overlooking the hustle and bustle of summer life in Friday Harbor. We enjoyed the birds eye view of ferries bringing excited visitors to the island. The studio is absolutely perfect for the 2 of us with a well thought out kitchen space. The unit is adorable and well decorated. The bed is comfortable and there is plenty of seating. The management company was extremely accommodating with great communication. We will definitely be back to this little piece of paradise.
Cozy little suite
Dana B., Henderson, NV United States
2 of my family members and myself stayed in the this cozy little suite overlooking the marina. It has a fabulous view, had 2 nice little balconies to sit and take in the great view or we would just sit with the double doors open and enjoy the view from inside. We were very comfortable here and pleased with the location, everything in walking distance. We really loved going to the coffee shop on the bottom floor every morning. We were a little concerned when we saw the outside balconies and bar right next door, but there is a 10pm quiet time policy in the town that everyone is very compliant about, so it wasn't a problem at all. All of our tours we went on were literally right across the street, just walked right over. We had our own parking space which was wonderful. Overall we couldn't have ask for a better experience on our 1st visit to the San Juan Islands. Would definitely stay here again and hope to some day soon!!!
Perfect Location
Albert S., Seattle, WA US
We loved our "home away from home" in this perfectly located suite overlooking the ferry terminal and Front street from two balconies. A great place to watch the people and water traffic go by.
Last minute decision
Recent Guest, Burien, WA US
We really loved the location, so much activity and lots to see. We ended up coming by ferry when our boat broke down so we had to take it back to Des Moines so we needed a place to stay for was great.

Picture Perfect!
Susan W., DuPont, Washington United States
Both apartments are in the picture perfect spot to look out the windows for a sweeping panorama of the bay. The place was spotless and well kept. When we had a question they were right there to help us. It is easy access to the ferry, downtown food and shops or base for further exploring. We have stayed there twice and will surely stay there again. It is lovely!

amanda d., ferndale, WA United States
We love this condo! We have been coming here for years and the view is incredible, as well as having a coffee shop just down stairs.
The cons are that the bed is hard as a roc. I slept on the couch with my daughter because the bed hurt my back so bad. And the floors are dirty. Our socks are filthy in minutes, this time we brought our slippers so we didn’t ruin our socks.

Excellent location in Friday Harbor
Christine H., Campbell, California United States
The Yakima suite was located on the third floor of a building just opposite the ferry landing. The room had amazing views of the whole harbor. When sitting on the couch you could watch TV, the harbor itself and the coming and goings of the ferry. The room was clean and comfortable, with quality bath products provided. The kitchen had a small fridge, toaster oven, coffee pot and any kitchen ware you may need. The bottom floor is a coffee shop with excellent pastries that we visited each morning. My husband and I loved the Yakima Suite from first sight and enjoyed our time there. It is on the third floor reached by stairs only. There is noise from the cars and trucks as they line up for the ferry across the street. Although this location meant we could get our car in line early and go back to the room to wait for boarding in comfort. We will definitely use this place in the future.

Amazing harbor and ferry views!
Shereen R., Newark, CA United States
We loved our girls weekend stay at the Yakima Suite. Great for travelers not bringing their car to Friday Harbor. Steps away from shops, restaurants, and fun but the view from the balcony is hard to leave. Be aware of lots of stairs to get up to the top but we liked that as we were counting our steps! LOL
In the Heart of Town
Ponch F., Jupiter, FL United States
Right in the heart of town with a great view and close to the Ferry for ease of getting to and from it. Great views and perfect spot for a little get away!
Mixed bag
Andrew G., Seattle, WA United States
Beautiful location with lovely view and access to everything in town. Plenty of space and furniture to lounge and feel at home, and the kitchen was well stocked and even had a portable electric burner. However, wifi was broken when I checked in. I called the after-hours number and the person I talked to took down my number, said he'd follow up -- never did at all. Also, the bed was uncomfortable and gave both of us back pain.
My favorite place
Recent Guest, Issaquah, Wa United States
I love the Ferry Landing Suites in general and the Yakima Suite in particular, and is always my first choice in Friday Harbor. It is absolutely central to all the activity but high above it, so that you get action and solitude at the same place and moment. Check-in is seamless; all my favorite places are within a block; two balconies for leisurely people/ferry watching; shuttle across the island to Roche Harbor is right outside the door. The best stay on the island.
Lovely view of Friday Harbor
Mia O., CHINO, CA United States
Beautiful view of Friday Harbor from both balconies. Well located with easy access to restaurants, activities and shopping.

Not recommending Yakima suite
Erynn S., Bow, Wa United States
I would not recommend the Yakima suite nor stay there again. It is cute architecturally, and has an interesting ferry terminal view, but the lights shining in all night (could read a book by those lights), the noise from the local bar and ferry loading make it exceptionally hard to sleep. Also, if one enjoys cooking, its tiny kitchenette is so poorly furnished that cooking is awkward and bit dangerous. The furniture is very crowded and toe-stubbing, the bed location is absolutely not for taller folks, and the overall level of privacy is bad (why is there a window in the shower stall?). Id only recommend the Yakima suite to a younger single person or couple from a large metro area, where going out for all meals and sleeping in a really bright, loud bedroom wouldnt bother them, and would only be staying one or two nights. Heat and a/c are not great either. Sorry to the owner for this bad review, but many of these criticisms are fixable. Install blackout shades or drapes, less furniture, more safety/privacy features (ex. change the door code!) ...
Overall, it felt like a rental that was taking advantage of the view for the fewest owner-expenses as possible. I would not return to this rental, as there are so many other rentals on this island that are fantastic.

Scenic Friday Harbor
Nancy R., Lusby, Maryland United States
This studio apartment was perfect for the two of us. We really enjoyed seeing the daily action on the waterfront. Sitting inside or out we heard and saw it all. The kitchen facilities were fine for breakfast and lunch. Glad we had small suitcases since we had to climb to sets of stairs. The climb was worth the views. Location great for exploring the town, arriving by ferry or seaplane.

Perfect Anniversary Getaway
Melissa E., Sammamish, WA United States
We had an incredible time in Friday Harbor. The Yakima suite was beyond perfect. Great location- we sat with a bottle of wine on the balcony each night and watched the ferry boats. So close to everything- grocery, restaurants, shopping all within a 4 block radius of the suite. You won't be disappointed!
Great location

A Wonderful Location In Friday Harbor
Arthur H., TAMPA, FL United States
If you are considering a vacation that will include Friday Harbor on San Juan Island this exceptionally situated private suite is more than you can imagine. Location, location, location! We sat on our balcony facing the harbor and ferry landing every evening enjoying a bottle of wine from the wine store across the street. There are numerous restaurants and bars all within a 5 block easy walk. Everything on the island is easily accessible with a car. The suite is located above the Salty Fox, an awesome breakfast and lunch spot with naturally fresh selections to please every appetite. The suite was LARGE with a very comfortable queen bed off to the side. It's more like a flat (one large room) with a living area, dining area, bed area and bathroom. The bed was a queen and very comfortable. The living area faced the double doors to the patio and beyond the harbor view. We really enjoyed watching the seaplanes and ferries come in while we relaxed after a long day. The suite was immaculately clean with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen had everything you need for cooking at home; although no stove a good double burner hot plate was there that we used to steam fresh clams and mussels we bought from the farmers market on Saturday morning! There was a dining table with 4 chairs for full meals but our favorite was the bistro table with 2 chairs positioned right in front of a large port style window where we ate every evening when not enjoying the town restaurants. The bath had a walk-in shower that was HUGE. The location of the suite couldnt be better. We had a rental car and drove to the alpaca farm, lavender farm, and various viewpoints along the water as well as we hoped a few ferries for day trips to Orcas and Shaw islands. This was by far one of the most comfortable accommodations we have ever stayed in.
Great location, cute and cozy rental

Had a great time, fantastic downtown location. Both beds could be more comfortable - due to lack of support we fought the urge to merge (in the middle) all night in the main bed and setting up the sleeper sofa was a trial of frustration...
Fantastic in all aspects
Recent Guest, mercer island, wa United States
We loved this place! We were pleasantly surprised at how close it was to the ferry, how nice it was and how fun it was overall. The amenities were wonderful the location was right in the heart of everything and The views and the decks were excellent. We would definitely stay here again we loved every bit of it.
Perfect Location
Trip K., Victoria, BC CA
The suite was very nicely furnished and comfortable. The view was a constant pleasure. The kitchen was adequate for making coffee or warming up take-out, but not much else. A bathtub would have been nice. I'd give it a 9 out of 10.

Excellent Friday harbor location
Recent Guest, Issaquah, Wa United States
My favorite place to sit and watch all the busy waterfront activities. Leave the car in Anacortes, walk on the ferry, and walk across the street to your lodgings. One block to the best used-book store in the world, two blocks to the market, one block to the yarn store. Not sure it gets better than that.
Great winter getaway if you like wet and windy!
tom s., Lake Oswego, Oregon United States
This is my fourth time here so that should say enough. Great in the winter as town is quiet but summer is busy and noisy late at night.
Nice weekend in Friday Harbor
Eric E., Yakima, WA United States
Our second stay in this rental suite. Great view of the ferry activity and general low key bustle of the harbor. Walk to most everything and taxi available at ferry for excursions. We took one to Duck Soup Inn for Anniversary dinner. Suite was perfect. Wine on the deck with nighttime ferry coming in all lot up was cool. Will stay again. Easy logistics for rental company.

Overall the rental met most of my expectations. The view from the balcony is as good as it gets in Friday harbor. The rental was clean and well stocked. Only things to watch out for are the worn out mattress and if the karaoke bar gets going next door you might have trouble sleeping.

Love this place. Stayed many times before. Will stay again in the future. Only complaints, the floor could be cleaner (my feet were dirty after walking around on it) and it would be nice if there were a coffee scoop utensil.
Special
Recent Guest, Big Sky, MT United States
Hard to leave this special harbor view and go exploring. The ferries arriving and leaving are memorizing. You are eye to eye with the captain. Amazingly quiet with all the activity below. Clean, spacious, comfortable.
Best view on the whole island
Robert W., San Jose, California United States
Great place located near town. Incredible view of the harbor and ferry landing. Great for a small family who wants the convenience of being able to walk anywhere in town. Close to coffee, food and shops. The only thing I would recommend is a latch on the balcony door. I was traveling with a two year old who constantly wanted to walk out onto the front balcony. We had to obstruct for safety purposes. I will definitely stay here again.

Place was great! No complaints except the room never got dark from all the outside lighting. I think it would help to have some over the alcove window that would provide better darkness. Otherwise clean, lovely and wonderful time.
Fun location - lovely aparment!
Martha M., Easthampton, MA United States
We rented both the apartments in this building: the 2nd floor with 2 bedrooms for my parents and sister and the 3rd floor studio for my husband, daughter and me. It was perfect! We had all the space we needed with privacy for everyone and the convenience of being all together. Linda, the rental agent was wonderfully helpful both before and during our stay. The apartments were clean and well appointed - just as described in the listing. The beds were very comfortable - even the sleeper sofa in the 3rd floor apartment. There were plenty of towels available in the bathroom and most everything we needed in the kitchen. We could have used a couple more bowls for breakfast and/or for snacks on the 3rd floor. The other additions that would be helpful would be a blanket for the sleeper sofa and recycling containers. We left our recycling bagged and in the apartment when we left because we didn't have any other place for it.
We loved the location in the middle of everything. We watched the ferry loading and unloading and all of the boats coming and going. I was concerned that it might be noisy but it wasn't. When the ferry was loading there was some noise for a brief period but not disturbing. We loved being able to walk to the apartment from our boat coming in and then walk to shops, restaurants and the whale museum in town... then we were right there to get to the dock for a wonderful whale watch! There are other properties that would be better if you are looking for away and secluded. This is in the harbor area - and fun!
The apartments were wonderful rented together for our group of 6 people but would also be great rented separately for fewer people. The 2 bedroom 2nd floor apartment certainly has more space and the fully appointed kitchen but the 3rd floor apartment is also lovely and was very comfortable for 2 adults and our 19 year old daughter.
We are looking forward to staying there again!

We has a great time on the Island and the rental proporty was wonderful. It was great to have a reserved parking space and the view of the harbor were fantistic. Initially we were concerned about noise but that proved not to be an issue.
First Visit to San Juan Island
Recent Guest, San Jose, CA United States
This being our first trip to San Juan Island, we decided to stay as close to the action as possible - you cannot get any closer than the ferry landing suites.
The suite was the perfect size for our family - two adults and two young children. It was also very clean and nicely decorated. We mostly ate at local restaurants, but used the small fridge and some of the dishes for snacks and drinks.
We loved the view from the balcony and were within walking distance to everything in Friday Harbor. Coffee shops, restaurants, local artists and as much ice cream as you can handle are all very close by. My wife even ran at the local school track in the mornings.
The big bonus of staying here is getting your car in line for the next departing ferry. This is very helpful in the summer when the ferry lines fill up quickly. I just watched from the suite while they loaded up the cars. Once they were all in, I drove around the block and was one of the first cars in line for the next ferry. After that, I went back inside to finish packing and have some coffee.
We only had two minor issues. Due to this suites close proximity to some nearby restaurants, you will hear industrial noise (roof mounted exhaust systems, etc.) beginning around 6 a.m. and continuing all day until about 11 p.m. Also, since the ferry loads and unloads directly in front of the suite, you will get wind of exhaust from all cars and trucks (including large diesel delivery trucks). We were out most of the day, so not a big deal. But, the weather was warm when we stayed here and having the windows open for the breeze at times was a necessity.
This was a great spot for a first island visit - it was exactly what we wanted. For a second trip, we woudl prefer to be further back from the ferry landing simply a personal preference. I would recommend this location to anyone visiting for the first time. I would also recommend this rental company they were very prompt and profe

Cute Vantage Point
Michael D., Kent, WA United States
Nice location and view. Like other comments I don't get the lack of hot water. There's a coffee shop and kitchen on the bottom floor of the building so I know they must have hot water. Buck up and spend a couple of dollars on providing your paying guests with a decent shower.

Sarah A., Seattle, WA United States
I just returned from spending 2 nights at the Yakima Suite in Friday Harbor... what a fantastic place! My best friend was visiting from out of town and I wanted to take her up to the San Juan Islands. Having been to the islands before, I've stayed at a few different places... the Yakima Suite is, by far, my favorite! The best location... directly across from the ferry landing. Amazing views of the entire harbor. Great amenities and very clean. We both loved it & considered it the highlight of our little getaway!

My beautiful San Juan Retreat
Danielle L., Midvale, UT United States
This spot can't be beat! It has the best views, it's convenient to everything and it was very quaint. Couldn't have booked a better place. The only reason I gave a 4 on condition was because the kitchen was kind of lacking if you want to cook there is only an electric griddle but we didn't end up cooking anyway so it was fine. (Also just as a side note, the cord to the fridge obstructs the ability to close the door, seems like doors could just be switched to the other side.)
Great stay
Recent Guest, Hillsburgh, Ontario Canada
Great spot to watch the ferries come and go right from your own living room. Phone died, office replaced it immediately. It was clean and nicely decorated. Could use more hangers in the closet and a plug for the kitchen sink that fits; however, you won't sweat the small stuff in this great location. Stairs might be a problem for some. I would definitely recommend this suite and I look forward to staying there again!

Second Visit - Didn't Disappoint
Matt K., Holland, MI United States
The Yakima Suite is probably the best secret in Friday Harbor. Its less expensive than other places and is right on the water - overlooking the harbor. This was a our second time staying there and really, that's the only place we'd stay in FH. Highly suggest staying there.
