This was my favourite inn I stayed at during my whole trip I wish I had stayed longer. The food was just fantastic and the grounds were like being st a spa resort. Sleeping with the waves crashing and the ocean breeze made my whole trip. I will be back
It's a scenic location and the grounds were beautifully maintained. The staff there were very friendly and helpful. The restaurant was good. The hot tub was luke warm and needs to be warmer. On balance, I like it and would stay again.
The room was very clean and the staff were very friendly. Housekeeping was available if you called for it, it was a bit of walking to the parking lots but we were able to get a ride to get our luggage to our room. Overall great stay with beautiful views.
Lovely resort like feel! You’re surrounded by the ocean and nature. The rooms are modern, updated and if they include a kitchen everything you could possibly need is in there - so it’s a great place for a long stay! The beach is great - wonderful views and a great spot for families or just to sit quietly and enjoy the ocean view. All the Staff members were very pleasant and helpful. We’ll definitely be making this our go to place to stay on the Oregon coast!
Excellent location! Access to the beach was a HUGE bonus. The kids and I wish we had stayed longer. Great pool, activities, and you can’t beat the scenery. So clean, comfortable, and more than we can ask for. Great staff and super helpful.
This a very quaint place to stay. The scenery and closeness to the beach and Devil’s Punch Bowl were great. The hotel offered DVD’s and had a very old school charm. They were great with getting your luggage to and from your room. If you are looking for quiet and laidback, this is your place.
We loved our room. It has an excellent view of the ocean and surrounding cliffs. The grounds were very well maintained and attractive. The staff was quite helpful and courteous. Unfortunately, we didn't visit the restaurant or pool. The only issue is not being able to drive and park next to your unit to unload your stuff. Due to our age, it was somewhat of a strenuous walk back and forth to our car. Otherwise, this is a beautiful and comfortable place to stay.
A great place to send family time at the beach. Beautiful views, comfortable rooms with kitchens, and plenty to do on property. We love coming here for respite and long walks on the beach.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Room itself was good, however the sink backed up and the toilet was badly chipped and made it uncomfortable to use.
We had a ocean view room but it was further away from the ocean than we thought it was overlooking the parking lot. Double queen room was small and not very well insulated. Could hear a faucet or water leaking all night, which made it hard to sleep. Property grounds were beautiful and hotel staff very friendly.
