Thank you for sharing this beautiful "paradise" with us. We have enjoyed a fun family adventure in your home. We were lucky enough to spot all those whales right out the windows. This condo really is "a bit of heaven".

This is our 6th stay at these Condos. This condo, A bit of Heaven, is the BEST. Whales are here every day. Food at Tidal Raves is especially good.

This place is aptly named. I feel like I've died and gone to heaven. First time at the Oregon Coast but we will definetly will be back. Your place is not only beautiful, it is extremely well stocked. You have thought of everything. Thank you for the few days of beauty and tranquility before heading back to Riverside CA.

Sun everyday. The view was unbelievable!! Saw whales & sea lions. We have rented many homes over the years and yours was the best stocked kitchen I have ever been in. Nice touches were the laundry supplies and soaps etc...........

Lightening, thunder, horizontal rain......Huge forming waves with wind blown crests crashing onto the rocky shore. The animated beauty and power of nature viewed from our window pane. Big stuffed leather chairs and sofa grand, gas log fire,carpeted floors, beautiful artworks & big screen T.V. Food & drink and great company warmed in the creative comforts of man's ingenuity. What a wonderful place to be. We feel so fortunate.

We arrived in late afternoon. Weather was sunny & breezy. My sister and husband are staying right above us and your place is so much more calming & beautiful. Lunch at "Title Raves" was delicious and the whales put on a great show for all!! We eat dinner here because the view is "The Best"!!

The boys took the fishing charter and brought back 8 sea bass, white & flaky! yumm. Can't imagine a more commanding view. What do they say? "location, location, location?" Of course, multiple whale sightings from the deck and peaceful, relaxing decor. Back on the road to Salt Lake City, cherishing the memories.

Thank you very much for such a great spot. This is the 4th time to the coast and the 1st time to see tons & tons of whales and sea lions. The beach was warm & the kids had the best time ever. One of the most beautiful views on the coast. Everybody loved the condo & we will tell all our friends in Colorado where to stay on the Oregon coast. Everybody is leaving with a smile on their face. Thank you!

We were here as a family. We didn't come for the weather however it was perfect. Nearly all day, someone sat at the windows and watched. We saw seals and whales, blessings. We came from Oregon, Washington, Idaho & Arizona. Your place is lovely and well stocked with towels and kitchen needs. The view is excellent and our time too short.

We are sisters and we decided to spend our "sisters weekend" as close to heaven as we could get and so we chose a Bit of Heaven. Excellent everything! View was to die for, we each had our own room and the kitchen was stocked so we just added the main ingredients! Food, fun and laughter, along with a whale and a sea lion thrown in made for a fabulous weekend. Thanks

This is our second year coming to these condos in Depoe Bay. Last year we did a sisters' getaway. This year my husband joined me and my two sisters. We booked A Bit Of Heaven this year and were totally satisfied with our choice. The second floor provides better viewing of the bay and there are more windows in the living area of this unit. It couldn't have been better. The whales were here every day, the pelicans came early so we got to see them every day too. We were lucky enough to be here for gorgeous sunny days and for a wild & windy rainstorm. We stood on the patio to experience the driving rain and hear the pounding surf. The waves crashed 30 feet into the air. We squealed like kids. The unit provided everything promised. The kitchen is wonderfully stocked, but some of the cups should be replaced due to chipping. Plenty of towels were provided for the bathrooms. We even enjoyed doing our laundry! We visited the Oregon Aquarium in Newport which is a MUST-SEE. The best saltwater taffy on the coast can be found at Ainslee's right here in Depoe Bay. For relaxation, this place can't be beat. You can read all day with the sounds of the ocean in the background. Or you can watch the ocean for hours, spotting all sorts of wildlife and people-life. Big screen TV for filling in the blanks. We've already made plans to spend Christmas in another unit. We are grateful that the condo owners are willing to rent this experience to those of us who can't afford to buy the experience. Thank you!

It is a bit sad to realize that only a small handful of people will have the opportunity to experience what my sisters and I have had during this past week. We are looking at our final evening with regret. This "home away from home" could not be more perfect. Most hours spent in front of the windows rewarded us with whale sightings. The stormy weather didn't deter us from our daily excursions. From the little shops in Nye Beach to the bustle of the bayfront, we were throughly entertained.

July 21-24,2008 The Bit of Heaven condo was a Bit of Heaven. Everything was perfect; from the decor to the view, you couldn't ask for more. We were delighted to see whales the day we arrived, but also enjoyed listening to the ocean waves and the birds. I would highly recommend this condo. Our friends from Falls Church, VA were just as impressed as we were.

We spent a wonderful four days with our daughter and parents at little bit of heaven it was just what we needed, a well deserved relax after a week of hectic wedding preparations for our elder daughter who got married in Albany on the 22nd. The condo was extreamly comfortable and convenient to depoe bay. The veiw is exceptional and we saw whales every day. The decor was lovely my daughter loved the dolphin theme and we all enjoyed the facilities. We had a great time and would use this complex again.

Our 2nd visit to your beautiful condo! We had a spectacularly sunny day Sat. and whales were spotted. We also enjoyed the contrasting stormy waves the next day. The thunder of rolling waves was much louder and dramatic than in the summer!

My husband & I are here to celebrate our 45th anniversary. It was a suprise for me, his gift to us. He couldn't have found a more perfect place. We've spent our entire time here inside, listening to music, playing Scrabble, watching the fire and just loving the ambience. "A Bit of Heaven" has indeed, been that for us. This is a wondorful place of peace and tranquility.

A Bit of Heaven was AWSOME!! It will be the Honeymoon to forever be remembered. The condo is beautiful inside and the view of the Ocean is spectacular!!! We used the fireplace every day and it really warmed up the place. We didn't want to leave and we both can't wait to come back again to A Bit of Heaven. We saw Baby Sea Lions every morning. They were so cute. My husband even saw four whales on our last day there. I only saw three water spouts - but that's OK. The only bummer was when we were asked not to feed the Seaguls. A Bit of Heaven is definately the place to stay. Thank you for making our Honeymoon so special!!
