Roche Harbor Resort

Roche Harbor Resort

8/10 Good
"The town is adorable, like something out of a storybook, and the hotel is right at the core. It is all wonderfully decorated and maintained and an all around romantic place to spend a weekend. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was the bed. I am not sure if it was broken but it felt like it was leaning which made comfortable sleep a challenge."

"We stayed in room 307, building 1300, just left of the main mansion building. The room was clean, the bathroom was clean, the view was beautiful. The only thing about the room I didn’t like was a shared balcony with the other guests. It wasn’t a big deal, but I thought we were renting a private deck. Otherwise I had a great stay. We will be coming back for another trip."

"We recently stayed at Earthbox Inn & Spa on San Juan Island and had a wonderful experience. It was a comfortable place to come back to and relax during our island getaway. The staff was great and made us feel welcome. Their friendly service was one of the highlights of our stay, and we appreciated the hospitality. We really enjoyed our room, and the bed was especially comfortable. Having a great place to rest made our visit that much more enjoyable. We would happily stay at Earthbox Inn & Spa again and recommend it to anyone planning a visit to San Juan Island. Thank you to the staff for helping make our stay such a pleasant one!"
