    Not gonna lie -- Earthbox turned out to be a wonderfully refreshing change from a generic hotel…read morestay. The grounds -- consisting of about 4 or 5 separate buildings -- had a lovely chill vibe, lots of greenery around the compound, an indoor pool and sauna and a nice array of separate outdoor seating areas. The separate office/lobby was a large but cozy welcoming space with a fireplace, couches and coffee and a comfy spot to relax in. Also, not gonna lie -- accommodations are upscale Best Western level, which again, I have no problem with, but just so ya know, that's 300 greenbacks in high season. Hey, it's an island, I get it, there's not many options; Just throwing it out there. Our Queen Standard room was on the small side, but the bath/shower was perfectly adequate (if a bit dated), as was the A/C, and the bed and bedding was pretty comfortable. The staff too was awesome, cheery and happy to meet any need. We loved the pool and jacuzzi setup, and there's even a little exercise room in the same building. One thing I could have done without were the 5 or so emails I received before check-in, begging me to complete the online check-in form ahead of time, so I could just go right to the room without needing to stop at the office. Didn't work and I still had to physically check in. So yea, that was a pain. And yet? They still get 4 stars. Our one-night stay may have been expensive but it was very comfortable.

    We had a really nice stay at Earthbox Inn and Spa. Right off the bat, they were very polite,…read morecourteous, and cordial via text to get all set up and pre-checked in so that we could go straight to our room when we arrived. I really appreciated that they had free EV chargers for guests, so we could plug in our car after a long day of driving and riding the ferry, at no additional charge. Spectacular. They are centrally located to everything you might want to do in Friday Harbor, so we only had to take our car once, when we went sightseeing around the island. Otherwise, it just stayed parked because we could walk everywhere, which was really nice. Everyone I interacted with during our stay was pleasant and professional. We had a maintenance issue in our room and they were quick to remedy it. I was a little disappointed that our room did not have some kind of fan to move air and the AC only went down to about 67 degrees and the furniture felt a bit...damp, so that is the reason for the 4 stars. I like my room to be cold, crisp, and clean and the one we stayed in just felt a bit...musty. Also, the local lavender farm is closed and the products are now sourced from Whidbey Island, but that was not disclosed to me until I asked, so I might suggest updating the information in the rooms. I was a bit disappointed we couldn't visit the lavender farm on island because it was permanently closed and so the sign in the bathroom kind of set me up for failure. All in all, it was a mostly pleasant stay and I would return the next time we want to visit Friday Harbor.

    It's been a very long time since I had a gym membership. My wife signed us up for Hot Worx before…read moreit was even built. It seemed like something different and I had not heard of Hot Worx. I'm sure glad she did it. First and foremost we can embark on this fitness journey together. The rest is the concept of exercising in a hot sauna might be beneficial. I went to my orientation and got my iPhone set up with the apps. The employee who took me through was a gem. She seemed knowledgeable and passionate about what they do there. The dependence on my phone as I exercise is not my favorite but it's necessary and I understand that. Technology is interwoven into everything we do anyway. I like how clean it is inside and it's all brand new. They require you to purchase their mat and exercise towel and they're the only mats allowed. Also get yourselves a pedicure because no shoes and socks in the saunas except for cycle and rowing. There are many programs to take advantage of. All of them are inside a sauna with the exception of the free weight section. There is cycling, yoga, stretching, rowing etc. the list is online. It's all led by virtual instructors. Again you will need your cell phone to start and track all your programs. For my first try I did the cycle workout. It's only 15 minutes but it was intense. Especially in a wooden box at 125 degrees. I thought I would have a problem breathing hot air but it didn't really affect me. I've been in saunas with the hot rocks and water bucket and it's hard to breathe. The saunas at Hot Worx are infrared so maybe that's why. I also did the Hot Barre None program and that kicked my butt big time. Every movement was precise and isolated muscles. I was wiped out after 40 minutes. You schedule your sessions through the app. It lets you see if anyone is in the time slots you want (max of 3) so you can decide if you want in with others or not. Personally I think three might too many for some of the saunas like the Hot Barre None. I was in there by myself. With two others it might seem claustrophobic. The place is open 24/7 and there's a second app you use to unlock the door. Staff is there during the day certain hours but mostly its just the patrons. Today I was in there with all women. I didn't see a man anywhere unless I looked in a mirror. I'm sure I forgot some features but I'll leave up to you dear reader to go on down to Hot Worx and find out for yourself. If you see a sweaty red faced middle aged man about to keel over it's probably me. Happy exercising!

    Pros: - You can select the temperature of the saunas…read more- Virtual instructors lead the workout so you never feel on the spot - You can cross train using different workouts - Free weights are available (but in a small area and they are NOT allowed in sauna) - 24/7 access using an app and there are two panic-button necklaces for safety if you are alone in the studio - The video reminds you to clean the equipment and wipes are provided - Staff is very friendly and I have seen them cleaning often when I am in the studio during day time hours Cons: - Other people can book the sauna at the same time with you. I dislike this for many reasons. 1. I use this method of workout to reduce human interaction. 2. If I decide to relax and use it truly as a sauna or meditate, I cannot. Or other times I do my own workout - which I can't when someone else is there. 3. The sauna is just too small to fit three people. 4. Plus this requires a compromise on the setting of the sauna temperature.... I wish you could block the time out and if you choose to, "invite" others to your work out session - You can't stretch out from one end of the sauna to the other - Lack of variety of the same classes (the same workouts repeat over and over again) - You are required to buy products to support the sauna (mat, towel, bands) for ISO workouts ($$$ upfront) - Certain workouts aren't available during times that are convenient (for example if I can only workout M-F at 4:30AM - only 4 of the 9 ISO workouts are available). - You must use the App to track your progress *and there are glitches at times
