About this property

Beautiful, custom 4 bedroom beachfront home on Sunlight Beach, Useless Bay.

Please be our guest at Artisan Beach Home on Sunlight Beach. Our home has elegant touches throughout and best of all, when you step out the back door you are right on the beach! Enjoy life at the beach, the beauty of the water, wildlife and boats and ships as they pass by.

Located right on Sunlight Beach on Useless Bay, just about everything on the south end is within a 10 minute drive.

The house has 3 levels. You enter at the street level which has a large bedroom with king bed and 2 twins (partially separated with dresser, but all one room), a living area with kitchenette (fridge, coffee pot, counter) and dining table. There is a bathroom with a shower. This level has direct access to the garage which is where laundry is. The 2nd, or main level, is a flight of stairs up. This floor has an open kitchen/dining/living area with a wall of windows looking out on the beach. There is beautiful custom cabinetry throughout the main floor. A few steps down from the living area, brings you to 2 of the bedrooms - 1 king bed (TV in this room) and 1 queen bed. There is a full bath with shower/tub combo and a powder room in between the 2 bedrooms. The top floor is a flight up from the kitchen area and has our 4th bedroom which was just added for July 2024 (it was an open loft area prior). The door to the deck, yard and beach is just off of the kitchen. We have outdoor lounge and dining seating. A gas grill on the deck, a gourmet kitchen with a full array of pots & pans, serving dishes, kids dishes, and great eating out options, will mean you are sure to enjoy every meal here!

We can accommodate up to 10 guests total with a maximum of 8 adults.

Close proximity to Seattle, Port Townsend, Anacortes, and the San Juan Islands should you want to take a day trip somewhere. Deception Pass, the most visited State park in all of Washington, is at the north end of the island, just over a 1 hour drive. Great shopping, parks, hikes, and local attractions, may keep you right here on the south end; even if you come for a week or two!

This is a high end, quality custom built home, with hardwood and slate floors, beautiful wood cabinetry and lovely art and décor throughout!

A beautiful spacious beachfront property, great location close to grocery store, playground, Langley. Our grandkids enjoyed playing at the beach during the day and we enjoyed relaxing, sipping wine at the porch watching the sunset and the stars. It had a fully equipped kitchen, two fridges and a grill. Highly recommended.

Peaceful waterfront stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, only wishing we had more time. The house is designed to maximize the gorgeous waterfront views, especially when the weather is beautiful. The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, but Langley is just a short drive away for shopping or dining. We had a minor issue with the house, and the property manager was very responsive!

Spectacular Spot

What we loved about this home was even though it is a large home, it felt cozy and inviting. We were a group of five women and were able to all have our own bedrooms. The living room, dining area and kitchen are all open to each other which made for ease of all being together while we prepared meals. We spent most of our afternoons on the deck around the table and the beach out front. Can’t beat the southern exposure and sunsets.

A great escape

The house was lovely and provided great accommodations for four friends. The living area was very comfortable and kitchen well stocked. The view was spectacular both at high and low tides. The management was easy to communicate with and very accommodating.

Great place!

We loved our stay here - the view is amazing. We were happy to find that the kitchen was well stocked and loved the layout. The lower area is perfect for families with smaller children because it is separated from the rest of the home. We had a great time and plan to return!

Wonderful Beach House

A very comfortable and lovely home with a fantastic 180 degree view of beach, water and mountains. Spacious, attractively decorated, light filled home with a well equipped kitchen and fantastic deck. A very friendly neighborhood. Lots of wild life viewing from rabbits to Osprey and Red Tail Hawks. Communication with management was quick, easy and excellent. And it's a great location for exploring the island's small towns and state/county parks.

Great location and comfort!

Loved the house - location, ease of access, and all the amenities. Very comfortable and clean, with a beautiful view. My daughter and I felt very relaxed and when we wanted to get out and about, so many things were close by - the Goose grocery store (love it) and all of our favorite shops and restaurants in Langley. We plan to return.

The Perfect Reunion

Five of us, all best friends from college, enjoyed a no-spouses, no-kids long weekend at this beautiful costal property. The setup of the house was ideal for our needs, with enough bedrooms and bathrooms, separation of bedrooms over 3 floors and a separate 1st floor gathering space, for both community and privacy. The large great room / open kitchen had enough seating for all of us, and really enhanced communication and relaxation. We hugely enjoyed the fabulous south-facing Puget Sound view, sand right off the back deck, and the best-stocked kitchen I have ever experienced in a rental property. Even the knives were sharp! The well-stocked kitchen is key on Whidbey, as there are a few restaurants, but there is limited seating and the pizza place closes at 7pm. Vacationers should consequently plan to cook at least half of their meals, which was a delight in this kitchen! Fortunately, there's a good grocery store 1/2 mile away. The fireplace was also key, and we enjoyed a fire each night. We had one foible with the door handle on arrival, and Patty, the local property manager was extremely responsive. She even continued to check in with us during our stay. The whole experience was so positive that we are already planning our next trip! Thank you for providing such outstanding accomodations for our reunion weekend!

Magical. Best sunsets!

We loved our stay. It was very clean. If you like to cook, kitchen had top of the line kitchenware. The view is spectacular. We saw one of the best sunsets ever. It was magical to walk out at sunset during low tide among waterfowl and looking at Olympic mountains! This is all in front of home. The location was an easy drive to the adorable town of Langley. Lots of restaurants and stores. Try the salty oyster house! House is 5 minutes from the goose grocery store. Don’t forget to pick up firewood. The house has a fireplace that adds to its charm. Neighborhood is great to get up in morning for a brisk walk to start the day. This house is a real find!

About the host

Host profile image
The Artisan Beach House is managed by Whidbey Getaways. We are a small, family run, local vacation rental management company that has been managing homes on the south end of Whidbey Island since 2004. We are available 24x7 for anything that you need during your stay.

Why they chose this property

We are a bit biased, but we do think Sunlight Beach is the friendliest beach on the island! Most families have been here for generations. The house is right on the Sunlight Beach which sits on Useless Bay. One of the most enjoyable features of this beach is the expansive tide flats that you can explore.
