At Sanctuary in the Shire we take pride in providing a welcoming and relaxing environment for family vacations. This home is designed to be a peaceful retreat for families and friends looking to enjoy quality time together.

Things to love about the Sanctuary in the Shire. *Only 2 blocks to the beach *1/2 block into town to restaurants/bars, shopping, grocery stores, and coffee shops *2 dog allowed per home so you can bring your 4-legged family - additional fees apply OSPREY NEST- 5 bedroom/3.5 bath *NEWLY REMODELED *Great outdoor covered lounge area open to patio *Games and Puzzles *Gas BBQ HUMMINGBIRD COTTAGE- 3 Bedroom with loft/ 2 bath *All new stainless steel appliances *Outside seating with firepit *Cozy fireplace to warm up by
In between the two homes is an incredible indoor/outdoor lounging area for eating, visiting, relaxing whether it be in the sun or the shade and it's protected from the wind. The kitchen in Osprey's nest has a pass through window that goes into the outdoor lounge area making it easy for serving up delicious food items easily while you picnic outside.
The back yard of the Hummingbird Cottage has a fire pit for smores and campfire stories for all the family to enjoy. Having both units gives you the best of both worlds. Your family will want to come back year after year.
The living space in both homes is bright with natural light pouring in from the large windows. Enjoy having everyone together while cooking in the fully equipped kitchen and large picnic-style table. Perfect for game nights and puzzles with the family. They are both NON smoking and will allow 1 dog per house.
These vacation rentals are close to the local pub that plays live music most Saturday nights in the summer. So you will either enjoy a free show and let the kids stay up late or have an easy walk back from a night out. Music can play til Midnight but doors close at 10pm for noise purposes. IF you are not wanting to enjoy the free concert we suggest packing ear plugs for those nights.
(*We cater to responsible adults and families. The contract for this home states that if you break the house rules for noise, damage, etc and are found to have been an irresponsible group of partiers, there will be a fine up to $2000)
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

This was a perfect space for our family of 18 to gather for a long weekend! The location is amazing, just behind the main shopping street and two blocks to the beach. There were plenty of beds and bathrooms and having three different living room type spaces also gave plenty of flexibility with multiple generations. The hosts were also very responsive to messages and gave clear instructions.

We truly appreciate you taking the time to review your stay with Sunset to Sunset Vacation Rentals. It’s wonderful to hear you had such a positive experience! Our team is dedicated to creating memorable beach vacations, and we hope to see you again soon.
Our stay was great. Although, after the weekend the host messaged and claimed we did damage to the property that we did not do.

We appreciate guest feedback however, we do want to clarify that we only reach out regarding damage or rule violations when we have verified evidence. In this case, we received reports and a video from neighbors noting loud music, disruptive behavior, and violations of quiet hours. Upon inspection after departure, our team also found a significant mess and damage, including stained bedding, vomit all around the outside of the property, bent window screens, and a damaged window crank.
It is our standard practice to thoroughly check the property after every stay, and we never contact guests about potential damages unless we have documentation to support the concern. Our intention is always to approach these matters fairly, professionally, and transparently.
The kitchen was very well equipped. Both houses were clean. Great location.

We really enjoyed staying at Sanctuary in the Shire! It was nice being so close to the main street. The bedrooms were comfy, the bathrooms and kitchens were well stocked. We would stay again. Thank you!
We had a family reunion here - 11 adults and 2 children, and a dog. It was perfect for us. The two houses let us divide up into the late night house and the early to bed house. The breezeway was perfect for all of us to eat in and have drinks. Two quick blocks to the beach with a coffee shop and a hot dog stop on the way. Well equipped and comfortable. Being able to bring our dog was a huge plus. We really enjoyed out time here. I highly recommend these houses to any group.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that the homes worked out perfectly for your family reunion—and what a great idea to divide into a “late night” and “early to bed” house! We’re so glad the breezeway gave you a comfortable space to gather, and that the proximity to the beach (and coffee and hot dogs!) added to your experience. It’s wonderful to hear your pup was able to join in the fun, too. We’d love to welcome your group back anytime! Sunset to Sunset Vacation Rentals
There were 7 adults and 6 kids! The house was perfect! Lots of plates and silverware for us to prepare and enjoy most of your meals at the house! Plenty of room to spread out. The fire pit in back yard was perfect for s’mores, and we made several bon fires on the beach as well! We also enjoyed the board games provided! We will definitely one back!

Our trip was an extended Family vacation with ages 21 to 82 all from out of state and this home was perfect for all 10 adults. It is exceptionally clean, well equipped for cooking & entertaining both indoors and out. Location can't be beat with short walks to the center of Manzanita shops & restaurants & the beach. Property Management was very informative pre-arrival and accessible & responsive while during our stay. I highly recommend Sanctuary in the Shire for any Family vacation to the Oregon Coast!
We enjoyed a weekend together with our 4 adult children, their spouses and 4 grandchildren (total 14 people).
Having two homes that are closely connected were an ideal set up for our group. The location was outstanding, just a short walk to coffee, grocery and shops. The beach is an easy flat 3 block walk.
The homes are beautifully remodeled and well appointed with plenty of dishes, silverware, pots/pans, etc. plus beach toys and games for kids.The outdoor gathering areas are a great addition and dogs are allowed. There was plenty of parking and we were notified when the house was ready for us to check in (an hour before the assigned check in).
The only small convenience I might add would be shower organizers or something to set soap/shampoo on in the showers.
Thank you so much!!!

I stayed with my extended family at the newly remodeled houses at the Shire. Worked out very well to have two interconnected homes. We were able to have large dinners in the connected covered outdoor area. Somewhat soft beds and if you are over 6’ in the smaller home the upstairs bedroom won’t work, but otherwise a great stay. A minute walk to downtown and 3 to the beach. Great location and a good time for all.
