Top 3 Meeting Spaces for Business Retreats on San Juan Island

Posted on January 13, 2023

Gorgeous San Juan Island has long been a popular destination for team building retreats and business meetings. Only 65 miles and 45 minutes by plane from Seattle, it’s easy to reach, yet feels like truly getting away from it all. The isle is the place to focus and get fresh ideas. Our Earthbox Inn & Spa with its 72 guest rooms, indoor heated pool, hot tub, and exercise room, is one of the largest hotels on the island. We offer seven room styles and extend group discounts during the off-season. Equally important to lodging during your retreat is an adequate place to meet. Besides our own onsite conference room, we’ll share with you our favorite unique and awesome places to retreat on San Juan Island.
