Wonderful view of the ocean, beach access one house over, somewhat steep set of stairs with 'resting spot'. The community is beautiful to walk thru, park and playground area were a nice plus. A Chester's grocery about a mile south towards Depot Bay. Very comfortable place. There were no plastic glasses for little hands but everything else was great. Would love to stay here again.

Wonderful, relaxing stay

The house was very nice. It was totally clean and very comfortable. The BEST part of the house is the view! It is just perfect. We sat outside on the deck and watched the ocean every night. It was fantastic. I highly recommend this house…we will visit again and I have shared it with many friends already!

Whale's Tale

We Love Depoe Bay, Bella Beach and Whale's Tale! Two of my siblings, their spouses and I enjoyed a week whale watching (spied some from the deck), shopping, cooking (well equipped kitchen), fishing, and just spending time together in this beautiful, well maintained home. The home was well stocked with necessities for an 8 day stay. We have been coming to Bella Beach for many years, and are already looking forward to next year!

Great place!

We had a great stay at the Whales Tale. The location and views are exceptional. Kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed. The beach access is a very short walk which was a huge plus. We did have a couple minor suggestions. The sliding back door and some windows need screens. The toaster needs to be replaced, only one side worked. Overall this is a great place and we would definitely book again.

Simply delightful

We had a wonderful weekend at Whale Tale. Very clean, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything you would need. Note, the hot tub can accommodate two people at one time. If you have small children, I would bring a gate for the top of the stairs. They are located between the living room and kitchen. The view was priceless!

Whale's Tale

We love Whale's Tale and are repeat visitors. We are three retired siblings and two spouses, and the Depoe Bay area and Whale's Tale are our favorites. The house is beautiful, and the floor plan suits our needs. The kitchen is well appointed for those who love to cook (me), and the views cannot be beat. A few years back when we had youngsters with us, the playground at Bella Beach was on the itinerary several times a day. Now walking on the beach is a priority. We see whales swimming by occasionally, and enjoy watching the fishing boats going in and out. We will definitely be back again as soon as we can!

Great stay. Charming neighborhood, and can't beat the view from the living room. You'll fall asleep to the sound of the ocean. They were very responsive with just one issue (previous renters left dog poop on the deck), but it was comfortable and clean.

Spring Break on the Coast

Our family really enjoyed this home for our spring break trip! The views from the top floor are absolutely perfect! The house was clean and very well stocked. Two minor things to consider. First, the beds super comfortable, but the pillows are pretty horrendous. We ended up purchasing our own. Obviously, pillows are very subjective to each person, but if you happen to be partial to your own from home and are travelling by car, we would recommend bringing them. Second, the tires on all the bikes were low/flat and there was no pump in the garage. Fortunately, we have a portable one in our car kit and handled that. Hopefully, other guests either have one or the hosts will provide one in the future. Two minor inconveniences that were very solvable in an otherwise great setting and home!

My Happy Place

Great home in a nice neighborhood with amazing views and beach access. The house was very comfortable and plenty of space. We loved enjoying the ocean waves from the hot tub. The house was spotless and was well stocked, it’s the first time we have never had to purchase spices and basics for cooking. The fireplace was a great perk after hiking and beach combing on cool rainy days. The home is nicely decorated and you just can’t beat the views. There is a grocery store nearby and a cute little cafe in the neighborhood. Located between Depoe Bay and Lincoln City with many beautiful beach access points nearby. We will definitely return.
