Year Round Beachfront Escape. Mountain Views, Hot Tub, Dedicated Retreat Room
Welcome to Salt and Soul Beach House, a premium year-round seaside retreat for families, friends, retreats and offsites.
This expansive house is nestled on a private shy acre overlooking stunning SE views of Holmes Harbor, Saratoga Passage, and the Cascades - providing front-row seats to wildlife and dramatic sea-skyscapes.
We are located about 20 minutes from the ferry, halfway between Langley and Coupeville with the historic Greenbank Farm within a quick walk. This well stocked home is perfect for those who come to the island for hiking, biking, excursions and strolls through the historic towns OR for those who plan to stay on property to connect, cook, eat and enjoy the sanctuary of the beach and grounds.
With five bedrooms, four comfortable sitting rooms, and outdoor spaces galore, there is plenty of space to spread out and do various activities like cooking, lounging, swimming, birdwatching, beach-combing, hot tubbing, yoga or games. Luxury linens, Mexican beach blankets, yoga mats, board games, puzzles and life jackets are available on-site. Bring your own paddle boards (all water use at your own risk, we do not provide any water craft.)
The house is designed for all different types of group trips. Girls trip? A retreat for your clients, team or business? Mom and daughters group? A few small families? Family reunion? We are ready for it.

About the host
Hosted by Elisabeth Root
We live in West Seattle with our 2 children and have been coming to this same Greenbank beach, at a different house, since I was a young child. This is such a special beach and location right in the "Heart Center of Whidbey" and we love that we now have the opportunity to share it through this beach house!
Why they chose this property
Greenbank is a perfect central location for those who like to get around and explore the island and offers a private and very quiet beach, especially in the off seasons. I love that we can walk to the Farm in less than 10 minutes for the huge dog park, food, shops or wooded hikes.
What makes this property unique
The house itself is so solid and spacious. The property is unique with its private wooded yard on one side and open access to the beach and big views on the other. Its dedicated retreat room meets right where the woods meet the water views and is great for one person or a small group to drop in for a sensory reset.
