Come one, come all! Trade in your clown shoes for flip flops at this fabulous 3-story central Oregon coast vacation home! The Dancing Seal is a multi-level home with amazing unobstructed ocean views from the third floor "Dancing Seal Lounge". After a full day of fun enjoying the pure magic of the Oregon coast, the third floor lounge is the perfect spot to unwind and watch the ever changing Pacific Ocean. With a living room with flat screen TV on each floor, and 5 bedrooms, this home is a perfect place to bring the entire family or a group of friends looking to escape to the beach and spend time together.

Feel the enchantment as you enter on the ground floor where you will find a bedroom, living area and bathroom, along with a wet bar, perfect for setting up your favorite drinks on the way out to the oceanfront hot tub. On the second floor, you will be drawn to the ocean views and the large deck where you can watch for whales and perhaps catch some seals dancing in the waves! The well appointed kitchen, dining space with a decorative gas fireplace, and large living room, will be the gathering places while the cooks are in the kitchen. There are three bedrooms on this level, one king ensuite, plus a king and a queen bedroom that share a bath in the hallway. Come to the big top, the third floor, where you will be able to enjoy the Dancing Seal Lounge, a mixologist’s delight with a bar and pub tables, expansive ocean views and another living room. The primary bedroom is the ring master’s spectacular finish, with ocean views all the way to Yaquina Head Lighthouse, a cozy window seat cantilevered out over the ocean, a gas fireplace for romantic ambience and a large ensuite bath with a soaking tub and a tiled walk in shower with double shower heads.

Fun for all ages, this is a home where you’ll enjoy good times together! Dancing Seal is close to lighthouses, both Yaquina Head nearby and Heceta Head to the south of Yachats, the Oregon Coast Aquarium, shopping in Nye Beach, the historic Newport bayfront, galleries, restaurants and many other beautiful scenic areas along our central coast. The private beach access is a seasonal access for guests. The stairs tend to wash away during the winter months so are not available for use. Just south of the house is Ona Beach and is a great place to explore!

Quite possibly the best experience I've ever had with a rental house. It was exactly as described and pictured, only even more beautiful in person. We were a group of 14 adults getting together to celebrate a 41st birthday, and everyone had a wonderful time. We had several professional chefs in our group and we all agreed that the kitchen was the best stocked and most user-friendly kitchen we've ever found in a rental house. Everything was perfect, from the communication with the hosts, to the extra blankets for getting cozy on the couch, to the incredible walk in shower in the master suite, to the very well appointed kitchen, to the breathtaking views of the ocean. Outstanding.

Stunning Ocean Views Beautiful waterfront home Had a family reunion and we had everything we needed-

Jennifer , December 2022

We had two families from grandmas to grandkids stay at the beach house and had an amazing time! The house itself was a great set-up for fun and relaxation, well appointed and right on the beach. Everyone had plenty of room, privacy if they wanted and family communal space too. All in all a great week on the beach!

Todd , November 2022

Spectacular beachfront home. House is stunning with pristine, panoramic views from all common areas including the kitchen and the third floor master bedroom. Great indoor spaces for socializing, game time, and private time. Clean. Responsive hosts. Perfection! Could not have been better!

Marilyn , August 2022

This was an excellent property and the photos in the listing were all accurate. Beautiful. Kitchen was well-stocked. Everything was well-organized and neat. All of us in the group enjoyed our stay.

Nroop , August 2022

The property is well kept and tidy. Very clean.

Twila , August 2022

By far the absolute best house we have ever rented! Stunning 3rd floor and very roomy main floor and kitchen area. Game room was a hit with the entire family.

Scott , July 2022

This was a beautiful home and a great location! Thank you for a great stay!

Melanie , July 2022

Property was great, good location just outside of newport, and a close drive to the other towns just south of newport. The game room in the garage was quite a nice surprise! Also, despite being just off HWY 101, the home felt very private and there was no noticable road noise. Would stay again!

Andrew , July 2022

This is a beautifully decorated home in a fun circus theme with a multitude of amenities for all ages AND it has absolutely stunning beach/ocean views from three sides of the home. The house was well equipped/stocked, well maintained, and thoroughly clean upon our arrival. Our group included persons ranging from 22-86, and we had such a fun, relaxing time. The home is right on Highway 101, but the sound from the highway was minimal. The sound from the constant waves was wonderful. Access to the beach was a bit difficult for my 82 year old mother, so she only did once. The younger ones had no problem, and it was wonderful to be right on the beach. My 86 year old dad doesn't get around easily, and I chose this house because once he climbed the stairs to get to the 2nd floor main level, he could stay on that level the whole time, enjoying the endless ocean views, the large TV, have access to the kitchen, and sleep in a bedroom with adjoining bathroom on the same level. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend to anyone needing a large home.

Kristina , June 2022

Perfect location and amazing home! Lots of space to stretch out with a big group. Beds were comfy and beach access was great! Spent every evening in the hot tub enjoying the view.

Suzanne , June 2022

Beautiful place. Great access to Newport and the southern coast.

Steve , June 2022

This house has a great setup with lots of space. We had a fabulous time!

Kaela , May 2022

You will love your stay at the dancing seal! It is wonderful.

Jordyn, April 2022

We loved staying here. Minutes away from seal rock and Newport. This house comfortably fit 6 couples and could fit a few more on the pull out couches. The property was well kept. Would definitely recommend and come back.

Jacob, March 2022

Stunning accommodation and location. Incredibly well equipped kitchen. Lovely bedrooms. So spacious...and the views had us mesmerized. Our family has stayed at other places...but we will keep coming back to the Dancing Seal.

Judith, November 2021

We had a great time at this house! Enjoyed waking down to the beach (which was just steps away) and using the hot tub. Great views on the decks. Plenty of room for a large family or group. Beds were comfy. The window bed in the master suite was adorable!

Jennifer, November 2021

This home was just beyond gorgeous. The views are breathtaking from every room! The daybed offers surrounding views of the ocean and starry skies - it was a dream. Kitchen is well-appointed. Group spaces are comfortable. We really loved it.

Ann, October 2021

We had our extended merged family of 13 gathered together at the Dancing Seal. Plenty of room for all of us to gather and each remain separate if we wanted to. We enjoyed the closeness of the neighboring towns and the ability to go souvenir shopping. The beach was so easily accessible, although we couldn't have a bonfire to gather around. We understood due to the burning bans and fire season. All and all a relaxing trip.

Laurie, August 2021

Beautiful property, had a blast with my family. Everyone loved it. Had a bit of a situation with the parking bc my friend checking us in didn't know how many vehicles we would have, but we resolved it as quickly as we could. Management was polite and communicative.

Vivian, August 2021

We enjoyed a week-long family reunion here. There was lots of space to spread out and the location is pleasant with easy beach access. The house is close to Newport and local attractions like the aquarium, parks and lighthouse. The bedrooms are comfortable and the master bathroom is great. The other bathrooms are a bit dated and/or on the small side, but okay. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, pans, decent appliances, etc. The coffee maker broke and the property manager dropped off a new one right away. One suggestion would be a better/larger grill. We had planned to use it but it just wasn't sufficient for our large group. Overall, a great place for a beach getaway for a large group.

Laurie, June 2021

This place really has amazing views and is so homey. The kitchen has plenty of utensils and cookware. Hulu and Netfilx available on the TVs. There was even a pack and play for the baby to sleep in. Bring your own baby gates for the stairs, though. We brought one, but could have used two. Great place to stay! Definitely will be back!

Nicole, May 2021

What a beautiful property! Was even bigger than the pictures led us to believe. nice hot tub with great views, direct access to the beach, and an amazing deck right off the main living space. Property is managed by a friendly, responsive team. We would come back again.

Emily, April 2021

Check in was quick and easy! This home was perfect for my larger family with plenty of room to spread out. Beautiful view! It was the best property that we have stayed in on the Oregon coast and will definitely return!

Kerby, April 2021

The house was fantastic! Walking up and down the beach was great. The location is ideal. The house itself was very clean and had the most amazing views! Plus the kitchen was perfectly stocked and everything was as described. Sweet Homes seems to own a few properties in the area. Communication with them were always prompt and professional. Very pleased with our experience.

John, March 2021

Very spacious, fit 2 families with 7 people and 2 dogs easily. Beach views are amazing. Balcony furniture could stand to be updated. Master bed/bath upstairs is ridiculous. We offered it to the other couple we stayed with to that is reason enough to book a return stay. Perfect location minutes from the fish market and the bakery at Seal Rock. Will be back for sure.

James, February 2021

The property was very relaxing and will not disappoint you! Stunning views and great space to gather with friends and family.

Rachel, February 2021

Exactly as described. Perfect get away with family. Lots of room and those views. Amazing! Can't get enough of them on every floor. Lots to do at the house even if it's raining. Loved our time at Dancing Seal and Jessica was very helpful and responsive!

Lisa January 2021

Dancing Seal is a fantastic house in a great location. The property manager was extremely responsive to our questions, concerns and requests. The house is located on a beautiful beach. The home was well stocked. Our group of thirteen (ranging from 8 mo to 81) was impressed with having several different hangout zones on each level to play games, watch tv or have quiet time. The bathroom vanities and fixtures are dated but clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and would stay there again.

Elizabeth November 2020

This was great for our large family. Having king and queen size beds in each bedroom were exactly what we needed to accommodate our group. The view was great, spacious layout, and kitchen was great for cooking large meals. Would stay again!

Kathryn Oct 2020

This home was perfect for our family reunion. There was more than enough room for our family to spread out and also to gather. We had a glorious time and this beautiful home was the icing on the cake! The kitchen is wonderful to work in and so well equipped and stocked with any thing you could need! The pool table, Foosball and shuffle board in the garage was the scene of many tournaments. The bed rooms were so colorful and all the beds so comfortable. Every couple (four) and all six grandchildren had a bed to sleep in. Because this home is right on the beach, the kids could play in the sand in front of the house and we could see them from the decks. This made for a more pleasurable experience for them and us. I want to thank whomever designed the beach access path. Because of my back and bad knee, I was able to go up and down to the beach with ease. The only thing we could say that was wrong was that the lighting in the garage could use some improvement, hard to see over the pool table as the bulbs were out. And because we didn't get to meet with our property manager when we first arrived, we didn't know how to work the video arcade system. Perhaps some written instructions would help. This happy house gave all of us a wonderful, magical beach reunion and we are so thankful for that.
