This is my happy place! My favorite part of being a Wyndham owner is the ability to book this resort with my points, even though I have to pay extra for WorldMark locations. It is so quiet and peaceful and the private hot tubs are a fabulous way to unwind on Orcas Island time.This was my 5th visit and I'm already looking forward to the next time. I have only encountered kind and helpful crew members on this property.I love the walk along the water on the nearby trail, strolling the docks and visiting the little beach park to enjoy all the views surrounding the resort and marina.Island Pie, the restaurant that is essentially on site, offers delicious Italian fare. Evidently, it's under new management. They were friendly and welcoming.See you again not soon enough, Deer Harbor!

We had a great time during the offseason. Beautiful view. The three rooms and water view was amazing. Hot tub is on the deck looking at the harbor.

Orcas Island is beautiful. Our studio cottage was great. No oven, but I didn't need one. The hot tub was great after a day of hiking.

Nice area, lots to see. Hiking presented us with some fantastic views. What's unique is that you have to take a ferry to get here.

Excellent stay! Remote & romantic. Recommend whale watching tour & trail hike up Mt. Constitution. Oh! And the Orcas Island Inn knows there way around a basket of fish n chips!

What an absolutely beautiful place. The cabins were spacious and the cabins have their own hot tub on the porch with an incredible view of the bay.

This bit of paradise is close to a marina and the view out of our suite overlooking the marina was fabulous. We had our own personal hot tub and our accommodations were aesthetically beautiful. I appreciate the amenities such as a completely functional kitchen, bathroom toiletries, plenty of soft towels,a fireplace, and the cleanliness that Worldmark is consistently known for.

We stayed in a cabin and had a great time! Can't beat your own private hot tub on your own cabins deck!

The Deer Harbor Worldmark is probably one of the best Worldmarks we've stayed at and we've stayed at many. The staff there are friendly and accommodating. The location by the harbor can't be beat and the individual hot tubs for each unit is what makes this property great. We stayed in a studio deluxe cottage and as a family of four, felt there was enough space. We ate many meals outside on the patio and spent a lot of time in the hot tub. The bathroom is spacious and the large walk-in shower was nice. Some things to be aware of... the bar sized fridges in the kitchenettes don't have a true freezer so if you purchase anything that needs to be frozen, it has to be kept in the staff fridge in the main office. This fills up quickly so don't count on bringing too many frozen groceries if you're in a similar unit. As well, the light comes in through the transom windows so it can be quite bright quite early in the morning. There is a free laundry room with two washers and two dryers. The machines itself are fairly new and the laundry room is open 24 hours. We brought our own SUP which we left on the patio and carried down easily to the beach below the cottage. Our kids loved paddleboarding right off the beach and had a seal swim right by them. Overall, this is a new favourite Worldmark and we will be back!

Rooms were more like cabins and they were nice and clean. They had everything you expect from a world mark location. There was a hot tub on every porch and also a common pool in the middle of the resort. The location is spectacular and every room has a great view. Staff seemed friendly. There's a store, post office, and a great restaurant that are easy to walk to.Rooms: Clean and spacious.Nearby activities: There's a marina that has kayak rentals and boat tours. They also have an ice cream shop.Walkability: There's a great walking path steps away from the resort. Also a restaurant and post office and a store you can walk to.Food & drinks: The closest restaurant is almost on the property and has some amazing pizza.

Our 1 bedroon is setup to accommodate 4 adults but I think it would be a little tight for a multiple night stay. That said, the location is our most favorite spot to date and we've visited many of the Worldmark properties! Private hottub on your deck, gorgeous view of the water and marina steps from your door... what's not to like? The San Juan Islands are easily one of the jewels of the PNW!May I also say, the staff (and that's EVERYONE we met) was incredibly helpful, pleasant and accommodating and it certainly seemed to us they clearly enjoy their work and are well suited to working in hospitality!Walkability: The lack of significant traffic (and what cars we did encounter were thoughtful) made walking the neighborhoods safe and enjoyable

For what people pay for these timeshares you would think everything would be just a bit nicer. Firstly, the staff is wonderful; helpful, attentive, and professional. The rooms, however, need serious attention.The layout is a bit odd, a little too much room in the bedroom, but not nearly enough room in the tiny kitchen. No oven or dishwasher, and only a tiny 2 burner electric stove. The pans provided have seen better days (please replace those terrible "non-stick" skillets!), the knives are barely usable (Ginsu??), and nearly all the faucets are loose. The water coming out of the bathroom sink looks like there's something stuck in there. The fridge is mini hotel sized, and barely had enough room for our food for 4 days. There should also be an option to NOT have a tub; perhaps having some rooms with just showers for those who don't use bathtubs would be nice. The hot tub on the deck is nice, but the thermometer wasn't working, nor were the jets on one whole side.I do like it here, right on the harbor, just a quick drive to the ferry to hop islands. I just think they should maintain much better, and offer something nicer to people who have spent so much money on their timeshares.
