We are pleased to announce that Rosario Resort & Spa is changing ownership to a new steward.

The new owner plans a substantial upgrade beginning with the historic Moran Mansion. The Mansion, including the Mansion Restaurant, Moran Lounge, Spa, Museum and other facilities within the Mansion itself, will be closed as of February 20, 2024 for a period to accommodate the extensive renovations. The marina and grounds will remain open. However, overnight lodging will briefly close from February 20, 2024 through March 31, 2024 for the transition, reopening on April 1. Our apologies, but existing reservations during this time will be canceled.

If you would like to cancel a reservation on or after April 1, 2024, you can do so through Rosario Resort & Spa until February 22, 2024, and your deposit will be refunded. After February 22, your reservation and deposit will be handled by the new resort operator. We will provide contact information shortly for the new resort operator. New Reservations for April 1 and beyond are also currently paused for the brief transition period and will reopen shortly.

The Barto family thanks you and the residents of Orcas Island for your patronage and support of the Rosario Resort and Spa through the years.
