Local Insight, Elevated Hospitality

The San Juan Islands are a world apart — a place where the pace slows, the air clears, and hospitality still feels personal. Managing luxury homes here requires not only skill, but deep local understanding of each island’s rhythms, access, and guest expectations.

At Recreation Stays, we combine 25+ years of five-star hotel experience with island-based expertise. From waterfront estates on Orcas to hidden retreats on Lopez and San Juan Island, we know what attracts discerning travelers — and how to deliver a seamless stay that earns repeat bookings and five-star reviews.

  • Personalized guest care rooted in true island hospitality
  • Design guidance and amenity curation for luxury homes
  • Reliable on-island housekeeping, inspections, and maintenance
  • Revenue strategies that adapt to ferry schedules and seasonal demand

Because your home deserves more than management — it deserves expert stewardship that preserves its value and enhances its performance.
