Kingfish at West Sound

Bummer of a honeymoon What a bummer of a honeymoon. I called Kingfish Inn back in July to confirm that the restaurant would be open in October, prior to booking. The representative that I spoke with confirmed that the restaurant would be open during our stay. The restaurant is located directly underneath the rooms. My husband and I wanted to recreate our first vacation that we had at Kingfish Inn back in 2021. When we arrived our room was locked and had someone else’s name on our door, even though the instructions stated it would be unlocked. I had to go downstairs to the restaurant and find someone who could help. The restaurant was playing very loud music a lot of the weekend since they were cleaning the restaurant since it had closed down for the season a week prior. Our hotel room lacked an extra blanket, and I had to message the hotel staff for one. I called and left a voicemail for the Inn when I found out that the restaurant would be closed during our stay and explained how bummed we were since this was our honeymoon. The Inn did not even call me back but texted me back a few days later. I hoped the Inn would offer a refund or at least a discount, but they did not. This Inn used to be wonderful, but now I’m sad to say the quality and service has gone down hill.

Great place to stay on Orcas Island. At this time of year - late Sept - the front desk isn't staffed, but it's very easy to get the staff via phone. Excellent dining on premises, beautiful area, centrally located on the island.

Fantastic Stay Lovely room, clean, complimentary snacks

Loved the quiet, rural location right on the bay. The room was well decorated and thoughtfully appointed, with nice towels and toiletries. The restaurant downstairs was phenomenal, casual but refined and the food was excellent. The only small issues I had with our stay were that the small size of the shower and fixed shower head is not a good fit for tall or larger bodies, and even on a mild 70 degree summer day the room was very stuffy at night (the window had conflicting instructions about opening and there was no screen in the patio door). The provided fans helped some but not enough for a comfortable sleep. All in all we would probably stay again, but in the cooler months.

Unusual menu that surprises. Nice view over the water. Small selection that makes it easy to choose and also makes it easier for the chefs to perfect. Very happy with the flavor combinations and will be sure to come again. I expect others will be also

The suite was spacious and comfortable but needed deeper cleaning. The main issue with place was actually finding where the suite was located because there is no one on site and the signs were not helpful.
