All your cares drop from your shoulders and you feel the rhythms of the tropics as you enter this fabulous, exciting property, designed and decorated with fun and comfort in mind. Watch the waves, whales and other sea life in luxury. Depoe Bay is known as the Whale Watching Capital of the World, and you will be amazed at how close you are to these magnificent mammals.
With floor to ceiling windows, there is nothing to obstruct your view! Even better, imagine luxuriating in the 5 person hot tub on your private deck as you watch the waves crash against the rocks a stone's throw away! When you're ready to come inside, there is a 55 inch HDTV with DVD, VCR, and expanded cable with the Starz movie package to entertain you. Or you can surf the web via broadband high-speed internet access w/wireless router. Just think, you could watch the whales, sitting in the hot tub, while staying connected to your office via the internet--and tell them you're working!

Stayed only one night, but was so beautiful. Driving 1200 miles from 100 degree weather to here was very much worth it. So great!

We had a wonderful visit! This place exceeded our expectations! All the comforts of home -- laundry, great kitcen, comfortable beds! We saw lots of whales and a few sea lions right from the condo. The weather was great! Sunny and cool with very little rain. We celebrated my in-laws 50th wedding anniversary. Something we'll never forget. Thanks for the superb accommodations. Hope to come back some day!

We loved the condo, very comfortable. The view is breathtaking, and we saw whales! A fan in the sitting room would have been most welcome, due to the glorious weather we have had. We didn't use the hot tub but will on our next visit.

You have a wonderful place. I wish I could have stayed longer -- a weekend is just not enough! Our kids had a great time, and we were able to relax most of the time!
