Best Spot for Small Family

This property was perfect for our small family of three. Our daughter loved walking down to beach, and we enjoyed the convenient location with excellent views. We had a car, which was helpful for visiting Moran Park and going on excursions. But we were able to walk to dinner, shops & the grocery store. Our only mistake was not booking more nights - 2 nights is too short on Orcas Island!

Lovely, comfortable place to stay with an amazing view. Well stocked kitchen. Loved being able to walk to shops and restaurants. We had wonderful dinners at Moderna & Majitas, great lunches at Lower Tavern & White Horse Pub. We recommend making reservations. Orcas Island Winery was a fun stop. We hope to return again soon!

Perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay. My only suggestion would be to create a little more closet space to hang clothes. We had a hard time living out of our suitcases. What a perfect location though! Can't wait to come back.

Clean, Comfortable, and Convenient

The Leeward Studio is hands down, our favorite place to stay on Orcas! This was the fourth time my husband and I visited, and each time it just gets better. So clean, comfortable, and convenient. Nice, thoughtful touches, and a very responsive host. Every detail is well thought out. Right in the heart of Eastsound on the water’s edge and right across from Brown Bear Bakery!

Cute studio in heart of Eastsound

Very pleasant studio unit above the water. It was clean, quiet, with three units up and one down. We ate in for breakfast and lunch, but had dinner at Madrona restaurant next door. Good location for walking around Eastsound, driving to hike in Turtleback Preserve, and drive to Olga and around the island.

Great studio overlooking the water. Plus, right in town but quiet. Location next to a restaurant so fans and venting from there created some smells and noise floating into this rental. But not an issue overnight.

Fantastic little place right on the waterfront with amazing view and middle of the little town. Very European decor and we had everything we needed. The noise from the adjacent restaurant at night was a bit loud with windows open. And the door slamming from the other units was annoying. Other than that it was really great and we would definitely stay here again.

Great as Always

Third or fourth time we've stayed here. Great condos in an even greater location. On the water, nice view, walking distance to everything in town. Stayed with sister-in-law/husband and friends. Arrived Thanksgiving night, prepped a small turkey dinner, the kitchen made it easy to heat up. Owners are responsive and take pride in the location. Very clean and well appointed. Will continue staying here when we visit Eastsound. Thank you for the great weekend, we all had fun.

View captured our attention. Beautiful location!

Walking into the Leeward Studio was comforting and inviting. We were surrounded by a beautiful view of the water and island with a small deck with a table and two chairs. The furnishings were well-maintained, very clean and attractive. We loved cooking in the compact kitchen and it was supplied with the perfect utensils. The bathroom was also beautifully designed with a deep soaking tub and thick bath towels. Beach towels were also provided. Creative use of the studio space made our visit very comfortable. We spent 4 days in the studio and it felt spacious. The coffee table also lifted up to make a work station. We also loved being in the middle of the quaint town of Eastsound with all the shops and restaurants within walking distance. The location is centrally located and just a short drive to all points of interest and hiking on the island. The only suggestion is to fix the lock on the sliding door or provide a bar to lock the door in a closed position since the balcony is shared. We would definitely recommend this location and would love to come back to the Leeward Studio. Perfect for a couple!

Room is lovely and just as photos showed, the view is amazing, the Owner very responsive.

The studio, view and Owner responsiveness are all pros as well as walking access to shops and restaurants. The negatives for us were the noise factors. There is a restaurant to the immediate right of the Leeward Suite, so all the laughter and voices from their outdoor deck carry right up to the Suite, the rooftop kitchen exhaust fan runs non-stop during business hours which makes relaxation on the balcony challenging. Big restaurant dumpsters are right below the Suite and are dumped quite noisely at 7:30 AM twice a week. You also have Suite neighbors - ours included a very large dog that naturally barked when needing something and a family downstairs with a screaming infant and energetic toddler who all enjoyed being on their patio until late in the evening right below our balcony. If commonplace noises like the ones described don't bother you, then this is a great place. If you are craving more quiet and contemplative surroundings, then you might want a different accommodation. A suggestion for the Owner would be to install door closer dampers so that the heavy front and side doors do not slam every time someone goes out. There is a note posted asking guests to close the doors quietly, but the note, unfortunately, is typically ignored.
