Amazing Mini Vacation

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"We had a great time at Once Upon a Tide. We booked on a last minute vacation and it was the perfect place to stay. They had everything that we could have needed for our stay. There is a new building that blocks partial view, but you still have a view of the ocean and beach on the third floor balcony and a great view of the sunset. There is also great access to the beach with rock stairs. My only suggestion was right when you walk into the main door they have a hose to rinse off your feet but there is some bark that makes it almost impossible to not track it into the house, maybe replacing that with some rock so the sand washes down into it. We just felt really bad about tracking it into the house and onto the carpeted stairs. We had an amazing time and would definitely stay here again!"

The ocean view picture is somewhat deceiving because there is a duplex directly in front of you blocking direct beach access along with what appears to be a new building going up in front as well. However, i would still book this location again due to the view it does have as well as the overt all cleanliness of the stay. Short drive to cannon beach.

Great stay! Can't wait to come back

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"The house is super close to the beach in the very quiet town of Rockaway Beach. It's just a few minutes drive from Manzanita, so is a great option. The house itself is very comfortable, and would be great for a family (as long as you have kids who can navigate stairs. There are quite a few very steep staircases in the house). It was exceptionally clean, and right next to the beach. The only thing we weren't quite expecting was the house is technically not directly on the beach—there's kind of a 70's looking condo building that blocks the view from the first 2 stories of the building, but you've got a clear view of the ocean from the top level. And if you really want to see the beach, just walk 1 minute. "

Mostly a good experience

"The unit was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The only comment is that the weekend was sunny and there are no blinds or drapes on the top level to block out the sun. The sun blinded us while eating dinner. It probably rarely happens but it was very annoying. Also, I did know that there were stairs in the unit however I under estimated how many. None of this should stop someone staying there if you are physically fit and I was not. Even with those minor annoyances we had a wonder stay"

Perfect Spot!

"We loved this rental. It’s literally 20 seconds and you’re on the beach. You have beach/ocean views from both balconies. There are 2 sets of stairs as there are 3 levels. The size was perfect for our little family of 4, but would still be comfy for 6/8 people. There is a hose by the front door which we loved as we were able to clean off our feet before going inside. The kitchen had everything we needed for full meals. The only downfall was that all of the blankets in the living room were full of dog hair, and an article of women’s clothing was found amongst the blankets. Also the refrigerator smelled like crab and made everything put in the fridge taste and smell like crab including the ice. Also there was no propane for the grille. So, other than those few things, the condo itself, location and price were great!"

"We were looking for a get-away-from-crowds vacation and got exactly what we were hoping for with this rental. You are an easy walk across the beach of maybe 75 yards to the water's edge with miles of beach to stroll. Even the weather cooperated. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean, well kept and fully stocked. Extra towels, coffee filters, dishwasher pods, washing machine pods, and paper towels were provided. Satellite TV and WIFI were also available. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. Loved eating breakfast on the balcony and listening to the ocean in the evening from the living room. We have done many Oregon coast vacations but we stayed in hotels. This was our first experience renting a condo and it will probably be the only way we stay on the coast in the future. This was a very nice property and I am sure we will be back."
