News From The Islands

Go with the slow.™ Postpone non-essential travel.

Slow is the right pace – now is the right time. 

We love our guests, our team, our community, our island, and our planet.  We consider how every choice we make impacts what we love.  The COVID-19 crisis requires each of us to choose and act.  Now.

Our choice was easy.  The best way for our planet, island, community, team, and guests to emerge stronger after this pandemic is for our Friday Harbor Hotel to welcome guests off the coast of ordinary™ on or after June 19, 2020.

If you’d like to book an experience with an arrival on or after June 19, 2020 online, our rates and availability are a click or tap away. 

If you’d prefer to give us a ring, our Experience Ambassadors are available by phone Noon – 4:00pm Monday - Friday. 

If you’d like to buy a gift certificate to help someone you love take a break when the risk is behind us, have a look here.  Better yet, gift an experience to one of the heroic doctors, nurses, neighbors, first-responders, public servants, analysts, or scientists. 

These heroes have done more than their part.  The best shot they've got at catching a well-deserved rest is each of us doing our part.

Go with the slow.™  Postpone non-essential travel.

UPDATE:  Effective Wednesday March 25, 2020, San Juan County Health Officer, Dr. Frank James, MD, issued an immediate order to restrict non-essential travel to San Juan County.
