I love all the little extras that made the place special. We were lucky with the weather and were able to kayak around the harbor. The parking was tricky, but we had plenty of warning and instruction ahead of time. Beware of the steep driveway to reach the entrance. Definitely not accessible by all.

Beautiful and relaxing
Beautiful, clean and has everything we needed. Too bad we only stayed one night. Patsy was very helpful and quick to respond to our questions. You know that owners put a lot of effort in making guest feel comfortable. Has its own dock that you can hang out and relax. Definitely one of the bst places we’ve stayed at in our travels.

Very nice and clean place. You can see that the owners take a lot of pride with their establishment. All the furnishings are clean and new. The kayaks and paddle boards were a big plus along with the huge deck on the harbor

The idealic location with a view of the harbor was beautiful and the room and bed were outstanding. The contactless checkin was flawless and the serenity sitting on the dock was great way to end our west coast vacation. We were lucky enough to get a street level parking space as the steepness for other spaces and getting to the entry could be challenging for some. Highly recommended.

We had an amazing time. Extremely clean and comfortable and they were very responsive. Great location. Walkable all around the harbor. Enjoyed using the kayak they provided. The bath products smelled amazing. Appreciated the snacks in the common area.

This hotel was not what i was expecting. Everything was do it yourself with no housekeeping. And we were able to hear everything and everyone in the room next to us or below us. You can hear every little thing also from the common area. Cute room and location was convenient but would not stay again

My daughter and I were doing a girls trip around Washington. This was our last stop before heading back home. I’m so glad I picked this place! Although we were unable to get a scenic view room since they were already booked, our room was a perfect cozy spot, especially being street level and no lugging our luggage up or downstairs. There’s a beautiful deck out back that we sat and looked out at the seals swimming around. We were sad that we were only there for one night! Before leaving we took out the kayaks for a quick paddle around the harbor. Would highly recommend. The owners were also very responsive when we needed anything.

We just spent three delightful days and nights at the Waterfront Inn in Gig Harbor. When you're going to spend time in such a beautiful little harbor town, the best way to spend it is to find lodging with a view and that's close to dining and other things to do. The Waterfront Inn is right on... well... the waterfront! We stayed in the "Lighthouse" room, one of three one-bedroom rooms on the ground level. Each of these rooms have a small porch for sitting and beyond the porch it's just a short walk to their large pier, which also has multiple and comfortable chairs to just sit and enjoy the view. The room itself features a VERY comfortable bed and great pillows, plus two armchairs that all look out through the double doors (mostly glass) for a spectacular view. Amenities include a Keurig coffeemaker with multiple choices of coffee and tea pods, a small refrigerator, and a spacious bathroom. A door near the bathroom opens to a common area where you'll find ice, a microwave, another coffee maker, and various supplies, plus treats like breakfast bars and microwave popcorn packs. The room and everything about this little inn is in perfect/like new condition and super clean. With only a few rooms to rent, they only need a few parking places and some of them are on the street level and two of them are down the very steep but short driveway. Those two spots are easy to drive down to, but a little tricky to get out of. But our little 4X4 SUV had no trouble. Simply put... Great!
