The Lookout

A wonderful respite!

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

"My boyfriend and I spent a week at The Lookout and had a wonderful time. The view from the property was amazing. I remember walking out of the upstairs bathroom and each time being struck by the view. The house itself was great. It had so many nice touches that made our stay even better. The kitchen was nicely appointed with baking sheets, lots of pots and pans, a blender. The bathrooms had tons of towels, a hairdryer, giant tub showers, great water pressure. And of course the hot tub was fantastic. A couple of people happened to walk by when we were soaking, but for the most part it was very quiet and peaceful. The bed in the master suite was very comfortable. I hadn't slept that well in a long time. Like others have said, even though the 101 is between the property and the beach, we couldn't see it or hear the road noise at all. We could just hear the lovely sound of the ocean. Being so close to Beverly Beach State Park was also a plus. We and our dog enjoyed the walk to the park and the dog friendly beach accessible from the park. The place was just a few miles from Newport proper, so it was easy to get to restaurants and shops. The only thing to note, is on our email giving us check-in info, it mentioned that this property only allows dogs up to 10 lbs. That was not in the ad or any other info we received. Luckily our dog is small, but for owners of larger dogs, be apprised. The property management company were very responsive. I had difficulty with my credit card payment when I was trying to reserve the place, and had to contact the company. they were very kind and followed up with me multiple times to make sure the issues was remedied. I appreciated that. There are lots of different fees (pet fee, travel insurance fee, etc), so make sure when you get your confirmation, that all that is in order.Overall, we highly recommend this place. We were very sad to leave."

Amazing!

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

"My boyfriend and I decided to rent this place for a nice little beach getaway and it was absolutely perfect. When we arrived it was very clean and everything we needed to know was right on the kitchen counter. It's a 2 bedroom but pretty small so I'd imagine it might get a little tight with an extra 2 people running around. In a previous review we read it had little kitchen supplies which I'm guessing the homeowner changed because there was everything we needed and more, even kids utensils and cups. We also enjoyed that the management was professional and there was really minimal interaction, everything went super smooth. The place is located off of highway 101 but you don't hear any car noise when you're outside just the crashing waves. It's also located on Beverly Beach park so it's a small walk down to the beach. You do need to drive about 10 min to get to downtown Newport and the historic bayfront, but that wasn't a problem for us at all. We loved how secluded and perfect it was. Overall an amazing stay from start to finish. "

"This was my second time staying at The Lookout. To start, the location is great. Right next to Beverly Beach Park. Easy beach access even though you are across the road. The second floor bedroom with its panoramic views of the ocean are breathtaking. The kitchen is equipped with everything necessary to cook or grill a great meal. Ideally located close to shopping centers but far enough away to feel secluded. The hot tub was ready to go...just remove the cover and hop in while enjoying the ocean view. The first trip was with my wife, son and sister-in-law. This trip was for my mom. She loves the coast and was blown away by the house. She felt like a queen for the week we were there. The weather precluded us to enjoy the grill and longer walks on the beach, but having a front row seat for the storms that rolled in was amazing. We were warm, dry, and safe. This is a great place for a couple or small family to enjoy. "

I will agree with the rest that the spiral staircase can be a bit of a pain, but everything is upgraded and beautiful.

The views are amazing, the fire pit is great and there are only 4 places on this bluff and this happens to be at the end, which is wonderful for privacy. The other downside is that the barbecue is overdue for replacement. Don't expect a good meal from 's very hot. I would highly recommend staying here and will be back!! "

We aren't a tall family but the spiral staircase could be an issue for taller guests when walking from the kitchen to living room area so you just need to pay attention. We spent most of the time sightseeing or at the beach. Only downsides are there are only 4 or 5 stations on the TV if you plan on spending a lot of time inside at the property. Also, some blinds on the front door would be handy to keep the direct sun out when eating in the kitchen. Other than that, the property provides awesome views and there is very little highway noise considering its directly below the property. Could hear the waves crashing the whole time. Very private as well. We would stay again if given the opportunity."

"We stayed 6 days and the view on this place never ever quit. Beautiful. I'll start with the positives. Very clean. The view was amazing, the beds were both very comfortable. It's at end of a private drive with only 3 other houses with it being at the end. The hot tub was lovely and private. The kitchen was well stocked as far as pots and pans, silverware, utensils l, bowls etc go. There was some salt pepper and thyme in cupboards. There was no coffee provided so bring your own. It's a regular coffee pot that worked well. The bbq out back looks funky but it cooked just fine and the grill was clean. There is a lovely fire pit out front that overlooks the ocean. There is a lovely balcony that also overlooks the ocean. We are in our 50s and in decent shape but the stairs are steep and spiral and were difficult to go and down constantly. Take your suitcases up the back stairs it'll be easier if your older like us. Plenty of space for 4 people. Now for the only negatives. The couch and chairs were not that comfortable at least for us. It didn't matter cause you can lay upstairs on the bed in the master bedroom. Lots of books to choose from. Internet worked well and T.V. was okay with on Demand and regular programming which took some getting used to. I met the owner Rick on the last day which was a bonus. One last thing is that I would totally recommend this place to getaway. It's close to everything as well but away. Oh and Beverly Beach is a short walk away. You can also drive and park in the day use area if you need to haul stuff to the beach. Unforgettable getaway. "

Excellent Location. Family or Couple. Not private.

"The very good: location! Fantastic views of the ocean, easy access to the beach from nearby Beverly State Park. The bad: Dealing with that very narrow steep staircase. Impossible to take your luggage up. But can do using outside stairway. Hey I'm 80 and I dealt with it. But was very careful to limit my climbs. The strange: The hot tub controls are upside down when read from the outside, where you will be when turning it on. For 4 days I had it set at 99. Never heated up. Then I realized it was set a 66, not 99. By then had desperately pushed all the possible button combinations. All the lights flashing, but I got it heated up. No instructions for the hot tub available. Lots of instructions on don't do this and that, but NO SPA INSTRUCTIONS. Called number provide, sent man out next day. Supposed to arrive 9;30-10:00. We gave up and left at 11:00. He came, but too late to get instructions from. We enjoyed the spa for the last two days. Very nice. Other stuff: well equipped with all the dishes, pots etc. No plastic glasses if you want a glass of wine or beer in the hot tub (I would never take glass into hot tub) so bought a couple and left them. Enjoy .. if someone does not take them. Upstairs master bedroom great for evening movies, etc. No DVD upstairs so had to improvise. Nice clean new tile, carpets, paint, cupboard. However, furniture thrift store quality. Not much privacy. People wandering by, cars driving by, from other nearby homes. Hot tub not private. Forget romantic candle light interlude in hot tub. No problem at all with plumbing mentioned in early reviews. Septic tank fixed and working. Weather. Lousy, Always!!! August dry season. No rain during my stay first week of August . Always cloudy. High temp 68 degrees F. Beach cold. 68 degrees!! In August, no less. Lots of excellent restaurants, beaches, sights nearby within 10-15 min drive. No UBER. Must have car. A bit overpriced. Great views. "

Great & Private Get Away

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

"Overall, the house was wonderful & very relaxing. Private, somewhat secluded at end of wooded street overlooking & hearing clearly the oven's crashing waves. Was awesome! Perfect place to be undistracted by hustle & bustle of the city & tourist traffic. The only thing I was concerned about was the absence of curtains on the three 1/2-French doors & small window next to front door. The whole weekend, I was covering them with towels & taping up over the windows with packing tape. Kind of a hassle, yet being a female, solo- traveler, privacy after dark is very important, esp in a semi-secluded area. Other than that, I enjoyed my stay & would stay again if window coverings (they are available) were put in place."

Nice property but could use some attention

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

"Pros: Location is great. Close to some of our favorite eateries on the coast. Loved the view. Overall condition of the property is above average and it was very clean. Hot tub is small but enjoyable. Comfortable beds. Perfect amount of space for 2 couples. Inside & outside access to upper floor was nice. Outdoor fire pit. Cons: Cable TV was out for our entire stay. Not a big deal as we didn’t come to sit in front of the TV, so we managed. Main couch/recliner should probably be replaced. No access to washer/dryer. Without the ability to wash towels we’d have run out if we stayed more than 2 nights. Septic smell outside was pretty bad. Might need to be cleaned. Thankfully the wind dissipates. Even though we were unable to use it a courtesy bundle of wood for the fire pit would have been nice. "

The Lookout

"nice place but when we arrived I was disappointed to find that the 2nd bedroom did NOT have two twin beds as shown in the pictures it was a full....not the most comfortable for my two teenagers 14yr old girl & 16yr old boy. Also the bed had a comforter on it and in the corner was a large urine mark that was fresh showing the comforter was not cleaned. Vacation Beach Rentals did provide us with another blanket the fallowing day. The washer and dryer is not accessible so be aware of that as well. Do not book directly on VRBO/HOMEAWAY they will charge you a 62.00 fee and OBVR will also charge you a booking fee go directly through OBVR. "

"overall loved the house but a few things need to be addressed. The twin bed was broke. The frame was busted. I cant believe the house was rented to us with a broken frame. The bed mattress was just about on the floor when my dad got in bed. We had to go buy dishwasher soap and tp. We were left two pods for the dishwasher for four nights but told to have all dishes done when we left. In the ad for the rental it says that the beds down stairs can either be two twins or put together. When I inquired about it I got a snotty response of no way. Overall We loved the house and location."

Wonderful weekend trip

"Stayed here for a three day weekend in January. The view from the master bedroom and deck is beautiful. We could sit for hours watching the waves and the numerous crab boats just offshore every day. The house itself is small but perfectly adequate for four people. The only disappointment was the poor selection and terrible condition of the cookware in the home. There was a very limited cookware selection and the non stick surface was practically nonexistent on all of them. But even that did not prevent us from enjoying the home and especially the view."

Unfortunately we were disappointed with the communication- we tried messaging the agency before the trip because we couldn't find check in information- I eventually found it in my email spam folder. We also tried to message the agency after the trip because we left an item and we still haven't heard back( It's been 48 hours). Also, the internet didn't work during our entire 4 day visit- someone was sent out to fix it during our stay and he wasn't able to fix it either.

Needs some owner effort!

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

"WE loved our stay and the location was perfect. However, if the owner spent a little more time focused on several simple items it would have been a 4 1/2 star vs. a 3 star. Example: Kitchen was very poor in supplies and cooking items such as pots and pans. For $600.00 he could completely update the kitchen pots/pans/glass ware/ etc. As it is, if you plan on cooking any meal there take everything you need. We went out and purchased many items for our 5 day stay. Also, the gas BBQ out back was a complete joke. The cover was worth more than the BBQ. I would have tossed that 3 years ago. So, bottom line: If you as a property owner want repeat business or even word of mouth business don't be so CHEAP and stock items that are a given. Also, we were there five days and never received one phone call about extra TP, towels, dish soap etc. So, we purchased what we needed. Other than those huge issues the place was amazing."

Nice Location, Clean Home, Cramped Living Space

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

"We were pleased with the location of the home, and how clean it was. It was well stocked with supplies, and we enjoyed our stay. However, this home is very small, and it has a spiral staircase to get upstairs inside the home, a straight staircase outside the home. We took our Great Dane with us, and she could not get up the spiral staircase. In addition, space is cramped around the spiral staircase, and my husband, my two daughters, and me constantly either bumped our heads or hit our backs on the stairs on the first floor. I don't think I would rent this place again based on the tight quarters. While the house has two twin beds downstairs and a king size bed upstairs, only two people fit comfortably in the living area - of course, paying close attention to that head-knocker of a staircase!"
