    The Bluff on Whidbey B & B is a secluded, private retreat with views of mountains, ocean bay, and a country garden. Enjoy the tranquility of island life sitting in our hot tub on a chilly clear night, or lying in the hammock on a warm summer's day. Either way, the view is incredible! Our location on north Whidbey Island is the launching point for the North Cascades Mountains, San Juan Islands, famous Deception Pass, and the scenic Skagit Valley of Washington State. We are 200 feet above the shores of Puget Sound near the swirling waters and towering fir and cedar forests of Deception Pass State Park, 90 minutes north of Seattle. New as of 2012 ~ Lower rates for multiple night stays ~ Plus ….. Introducing the Cicero suite ~ New kitchen facilities to allow for a convenient and efficient stay in our most luxurious room.

    Outstand B&B on Whidbey Island

    April 29, 2013

    This place was delightful from the moment we drove into the driveway. Larry was working out front and walked right up to us and called us by name. He brought us inside to common area to go over all he things offered at the B&B. Larry then showed us to our room and how to use the hot tub, which we used later that night. The next morning Kathy brough breakfast to our room.

    Wonderful stay

    April 04, 2013

    The Bluff on Whidbey is located on a beautiful property. The host was wonderful and friendly but left us alone so we can enjoy our stay as a family. My daughter asked when we can go back again already.

    A cozy and beautiful getaway

    January 07, 2013

    We arrived on New Years Eve and spent it watching the moon rise, in the hot tub, listening to owls, and feeling cozy next to the gas woodstove in our room. Our window looked over the backyard to the water and the sunrise was outstanding. We'd stay there again in a heartbeat-

    Beautiful Bed and Breakfast

    July 30, 2008

    The Bluff on Whidbey is a beautiful bed and breakfast, in a most idyllic location with spectacular views over the water to Mount Baker and the Cascades. The rooms are lovely and very private, looking out onto a garden filled with wildflowers on top of a cliff. Larry and Kathy are wonderful hosts, and cooked a most delicious breakfast we were able to enjoy in our room. Truly a bed and breakfast worth visiting, we are enjoyed our stay there very much, and there are not many places you can wake up to a view like that!
