During the shoulder and winter season, we have weekend and weekday rates (Sunday – Thursday).

Travel Protection: You may add on travel protection at time of reservation by booking direct online or by giving us a call. For more information, please visit: Protect Your Travel Plans with ResNexus Travel Protection.

Cancellation:

We recommend travel insurance in the event you need to cancel, delete dates on a multiple-night stay, or change the dates of your stay. The following cancellation policy applies to all eventualities:

• One night or a 50% deposit of the total reservation (whichever is greater) is due upon booking.
• July and August: 1) If your booking is cancelled 60 or more days prior to arrival, you are charged a cancellation fee of 15% of your deposit, minimum $45. 2) if your booking is cancelled 59 or fewer days prior to arrival, the deposit is non-refundable.
• September through June: 1) if your booking is cancelled 30 or more days prior to arrival, you are charged a cancellation fee of 15% of your deposit, minimum $45. 2) if your booking is cancelled 29 or less days prior to arrival, the deposit is non-refundable.
• For stays of 3+ nights, the remaining balance is charged 14 days prior to arrival and becomes non-refundable.
• For 2-night stays, the remaining balance is charged 7 days prior to arrival and becomes non-refundable.

Non-Refundable Reservation: If you booked a reservation with a non-refundable rate, please know that the entire amount of your reservation is collected at the time of the reservation. If you cancel the reservation anytime in the future, the fees collected are non-refundable.

Third-Party Travel Agents: If you book through a third-party agent (ie. Expedia, Booking, Bed and Breakfast), please note that your payment and cancellation policies are set by your booking agent. We offer our best rate guarantee when booking directly with us.

Travel Protection Guests: If you purchase Travel Protection, please note that payment for your reservation is due at time of booking and is non-refundable. In the event that you need to cancel, please refer to your Travel Protection Policies.

Check In/Check Out: Regular check in is between 4 – 6 p.m. Regular check out is at 10:00 a.m. We are happy to store luggage prior to check in and after check out so you can enjoy your remaining time on the island. The nights shown on your confirmation are the nights for which your room is reserved.

Innkeepers do not live on site but are available if you need assistance and for emergencies after hours: (360) 378-2783.

Deposits: Reservations must be secured with a 50% deposit via Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express or by full prepayment. Stays of one or two nights require a one-night deposit. Payment in full is due 7 days prior to arrival for stays of two nights and 14 days prior to arrival for stays of three nights or more.

Specials/Certificates: Please call to make your reservation if you are using a coupon, voucher, or gift certificate valued at more than 50% of your total stay. Our online reservation system will automatically charge a one-night deposit. Since payment in full is required one week prior to arrival, your credit card will be charged in full if we have not been notified of your intent. If we have not been notified in advance of your intent to use coupons, vouchers, specials, packages, or certificates and there is a refund due, or if you mailed in your coupon, voucher, or certificate after check-out, there will be a 5% surcharge on any refund. All coupons, vouchers, and/or certificates must be surrendered upon check-in for redemption or your credit card will be charged for the remaining balance.

Breakfast: We serve a full gourmet breakfast that is included in your room rate. Please place your breakfast order no later than 4:30 p.m. the day of your arrival via our website at bit.ly/THHHbreakfast. Your breakfast basket will be delivered to your door the following morning. For multi-night stays, you may place all your breakfast orders at once (simply select the date for each delivery) or up until each afternoon prior by 4:30 p.m. If you are leaving before our breakfast delivery times, we are happy to provide a to-go breakfast for you. Please call us before noon the previous day to order. We are happy to accommodate dietary restrictions, allergies, or preferences for breakfast. Please let us know at least 24 hours in advance of your arrival. Breakfast is not included for guests staying in our vacation rental, the Sunshine Suite.

Smoking: This Friday Harbor establishment is non-smoking. Washington State law prohibits smoking within 20 feet of a door or window. Evidence of smoking inside your guest accommodation will be assessed a $250 cleaning fee.

Pets: Friday Harbor is a pet-friendly community and there are plenty of parks – one right across the street – for dog walking. The inn is pet-friendly in specified suites and cottages, and pets must be declared when making your reservation. There is a $45 fee per day/per pet, although certified service dogs are exempt from the daily pet fee. Return guests have a special rate of $35 per night/per pet. Please note: certified therapy dogs are not covered under the ADA laws and are subject to daily pet fee. Furry friends are not to be left unattended at the inn under any circumstances. Guests are responsible for cleaning up after their pet and for any and all damage, including noise.

Washington’s Law Against Discrimination defines service animals as animals that have been trained to assist or accommodate people with physical, sensory, or mental disabilities. Similarly, under the ADA, a service animal is a dog that has been individually trained to perform tasks or do work for the benefit of a person with a disability. The tasks or work the animal does must be directly related to the person’s disability. Read through the Washington State Human Right Commission’s “Guide to Service Animals and The Washington State Law Against Discrimination.”

Families: We welcome children of all ages in designated suites and cottages because of the privacy these Friday Harbor accommodations offer. All children must be accompanied by an adult; please do not leave children unsupervised in the room. We have an “Adults Only” policy for guest rooms. We have pack and plays for infants; please let us know that you will require one when making you reservation. Children under 7 stay free!

Groups: We welcome the opportunity to host your retreat, seminar, wedding, or family reunion. With advance planning, the entire facility may be privately reserved. Catering is available.

Quiet Hours: For the safety and comfort of all of our guests, we observe quiet hours from 10 p.m. – 9 a.m.

Transportation: Though we are only a block and a half from the ferry, please advise us upon booking if you require assistance with transportation from the ferry or from the Friday Harbor airport (located a mile from the inn).

Concierge Service: Explore the island’s offerings on your own or allow us to help you arrange your adventures. You may want to consider a day of kayaking, scenic flights, hikes, biking, sailing, or fishing. San Juan Island also offers whale watching, golfing, shopping, theatre, and fine dining – just to name a few of the exciting possibilities!

Property Damage: Guest authorizes up to a $500 charge on their card upon departure in the event of property damage. Damage includes, but is not restricted to: noise complaints, common or private property damage, excessive cleaning requirement, lost, broken, or missing common or private property items, smoking inside the property, pet damage inside the property, and all charges relating to security company or police involvement regarding property occupant’s behavior while in the property or on common premises.

Electronic Privacy: The Owner and this website’s Technical Administrators agree to not sell, refer, rent, or divulge to any third parties the names or personal information of their Guests without prior written consent from the Guests, except under force of law, or for law enforcement purposes relating to policy and property violation. The Owner also agrees to not use Guest personal information for any reason other than its original intended purpose without written consent from the Guests.
