Top Squalicum Beach Hotel Reviews

Best Western Plus Bellingham

10/10 Excellent

"Great breakfast that stayed open till 10:00 am!! Lots of parking in a wonderful safe area. Rooms all had microwaves which I thought was so wonderful! And check out was noon, and also they gave you bottled water whenever u need it….. it bothers me when I have to purchase bottled water after paying for my hotel room!! These may be small extras but they all add up to a hotel that really cares about its clients!! When ever I can I try and stay with a big hotel chain and I find best western to have the best bang for your buck ❤️ staff was on top of everything from smiles to making sure the grounds were very clean殺 one more thing I was able to do laundry half way thru my 12 day road trip…….HUGE BONUS !!!"

Bellingham Vacation Rental w/ Private Deck

10/10 Excellent

"Was very comfortable home in a great location. Enjoyed the family wedding immensely without any issues with stay!"

Waterfront, unobstructed view of Bellingham Bay, luxury 3+ bedroom townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"A nicely appointed house with amazing Bay sunset views! The house was comfortable and had everything we needed for a month in Bellingham. The location is on the edge of town but an easy mile walk to Old Town. The trains are loud but we quickly got used to them. What a great place to spend the summer in Bham!"

Extended Stay Gem in Columbia - Walk to Parks

10/10 Excellent

"We have stayed in a lot of VRBOs over the years, and Emma and her Stay Bham team are hands down the best hosts you could ask for. They went above and beyond to make sure that our 47 night stay was everything we wanted it to be. The unit itself was very nice and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable, everything was very clean, and the TV and appliances all seemed very new. Everything worked as it should. The park and dog park just down the hill that provided trail access to walk to the pier which we did almost daily. Check-in and check-out were also very easy. We would definitely recommend staying at this property."
