The Quintessa Estate
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Large enough for everyone, this stunning property is perfect for that memorable family reunion or productive corporate retreat.
Begin the day with coffee on the expansive waterview deck watching the seagulls and eagles overhead. Enjoy winery, cidery, brewery, meadery, and distillery tastings all within a short drive from this estate. A day at the beach is waiting for you just minutes away. You can take your pick of great hiking spots, including state parks, Trillium Trails, and Ebey’s Landing. Shop until you drop with antiques in Freeland, artisans on the Whidbey Art Trail, and gifts galore in downtown Langley. Whatever your friends and family enjoy, there is something for everyone.
Wind down the day by cooking a family dinner in one of three full kitchens. Dine in the formal dining room, alfresco on the covered veranda, or enjoy a picnic in the garden. Sip wine on the deck and watch the sunset. Fall asleep to the sounds of frogs, crickets, and owls. Wake refreshed after a great night's sleep for another day of Whidbey adventures.

Great property with fantastic views. One of the few places in the state of Washington that can host large families (30+ people). So much to do on the property and in the surrounding area. Would highly recommend in the future! Thank you!
10.0 / 10.0
Lovely property with responsive hosts. Guests should note there's no air conditioning, though the host did provide box fans for each room. While there are laundry facilities, the well water has tannins that will stain whites, so we made some trips to a local Laundromat. Overall we loved our stay and highly recommend!

We held our annual family reunion at the Quintessa the week of July 6-13, 2024. We have held an annual family reunion since 1997 (except 2020) and this was the best place and absolutely the best hosts we have ever had. Not only was the house fully stocked with everything we needed (bath towels, beach towels, shampoo, conditioner, soap, fully stocked kitchen, etc), but Carrie and Tessa were incredibly responsive and helpful with everything we asked. All 31 of our family members (ages 14-92) had a comfortable place to sleep. Whidbey Island is gorgeous too! Thanks so much, Carrie and Tessa!

The Quintessa was the perfect spot for our family reunion. We had over 35 people, ranging from 5 days old to 66 years old! Plenty of bedroom space, living spaces and the kitchen was fully stocked with plenty of cooking and dining supplies. The yard was the perfect space for our "Family Olympics" and there was plenty of space on the decks for family meals. Communication with the owner was quick and thorough. Highly recommend for any size group wanting to get away to enjoy the beautiful Pacific Northwest.

We love this house and it is the second time we have stayed here. There are great easy walks and a good playground for children short drives away. The only issue was the water pressure. It resulted in our having to thoroughly rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher (which acted more as a sterilizer). With so many people, this felt like a real waste.

We enjoyed our time and this place worked well for our family gathering of 40 people including a lot of babies too. There were plenty of supplies including towels & washcloths!

Lovely property and house for spending large family gatherings.
Dishwasher was broken and that was not great. Also, after turning all thermostats to off, still super hot in January. Had to open windows! Can't be good for reducing heating costs.

The immediate surroundings are rural and peaceful. Several interesting destination within 10-30 minute drive.
The one problem that came up with the plumbing system was quickly resolved.
Note that the main house only has 4 bathrooms.

Everyone enjoyed our time at this wonderful retreat. The weather cooperated and the couple was married, all to much fanfare. The grounds were a great setting for the nuptials.

We are a family of four generations and all 30 of us had a very enjoyable weekend at the Quintessa. The owners were very accommodating and pleasant to work with. The home was spacious and very comfortable. All of the kitchen appliances and utensils we needed were available as well. It seems that the owners have thought of everything to make our stay enjoyable and stress-free.

The Quintessa is beautiful and accommodates a large group well. Shared spaces are generously sized and rooms are clean, comfortable and nicely appointed. A fabulous location, too. Just 10 minutes away from multiple key locations around Langley!!

We had a very large family reunion planned (28) and decided to stay in a single house rather than individual cabins/units. The Quintessa was able to accommodate the range of ages (7-74) and privacy needs with numerous large bedrooms and spacious living rooms and kitchens. We were able to avoid using the available sofa beds since those are usually rough on adult bodies and had a great time together. The amenities were wonderful: well stocked kitchens, linens, cleaning supplies, games for indoors and outdoors, books & movies, and the hosts are
extremely nice and helpful. Plus, Whidbey Island has many parks and beaches that are interesting and relaxing.

Featuring a well-stocked kitchen, lawn games, seating for many, with smaller eating areas for breakout groups.

We had an awesome stay at The Quintessa! The cottage was the perfect location for parents of bride and the main house accommodated the bride’s family beautifully in large relaxing spaces! We had lovely dinners on lower and upper veranda and enjoyed the lawn games. So much to do on Whidbey Island and we highly recommend this home!

The Quintessa is a beautiful home with lots of room for large groups.
Our family loves to cook and the main kitchen was great with plenty of working space.
The kids enjoyed wondering through the woods and playing in a little creek that runs through the property.
It was the perfect property for our family.

The Quintessa was perfect for our family reunion, as we had visitors of all ages and from several states. The house had lots of room for gatherings, games, and chatting. We especially liked being outdoors on the balconies and in the yard. The kitchen was extremely well provisioned for preparing meals. Our Hosts were very good communicators. Its convenient location means we could easily go by car on excursions to visit towns and beaches.
