Simply. Amazing.
Konni , March 2023
Everything about Waves and Whales was perfect. The view was incredible and we can’t wait to come back.
Danielle , March 2023
This was our second time here and the view never gets old! Can’t wait to stay again!
Chris , March 2023
Absolutely Stunning! Truly exceeds the photographs. Amazing views and fantastic location- the living room is a wall of windows for whale or storm watching and the two bedrooms each have ocean views ( plus a great deck). Home feels spacious and open yet cozy (especially curled up by the fire on a rainy evening). Well appointed, dog friendly, easy check-in - this had it all. An instant favorite - we can't wait to return.
Shannon , March 2023
The views in pictures are incredible but NOTHING like being there. Waves crashing into cliff-majestic, powerful and breathtaking. No whales in February but literally spent days lost in the ocean waves. Sunsets every night were so picturesque. The bedding hugged you like a cloud. It is safe and quiet neighborhood, far enough away yet close enough for variety of ways to spend time. Kitchen equipped with all you need and the home itself-great decorating. I will return.
Robin , February 2023
We had a wonderful time at Waves & Whales celebrating our 45th Anniversary. So peaceful and relaxing every moment of the day. Waves crashing on the lava rocks never gets old. Home is so well decorated and comfortable. Great restaurants and shops in Depoe Bay & Newport. We went to Oregon Coast Glassworks and created a floppy bowl to mark our occasion. Staff at Sweet Homes were so friendly, kind and quick to reply and made sure our stay was up to our expectations. We look forward to returning soon!
Jim , February 2023
Amazing view from a cozy, well decorated and stuffed house. We had everything we needed in the house, kitchen has a ton of cookware, beds were comfy, lots of books and games with a breathtaking view at the ocean, rolling waves, crushing waves, so beautiful!
Marina , February 2023
I can’t say enough about how amazing the views are from this house. Loved the great room and kitchen and the big bedrooms were fantastic. We had a fabulous time! There are so many games, puzzles and books! Great for spending time with friends and family! We will be back!
Melissa , January 2023
Great place with an incredible view. Well stocked kitchen and clean. Comfortable beds and nice bedding.
Jill Z. , January 2023
Although the sea was too rough to spot any whales, we were mesmerized by the wild wave action visible from the great room and deck. We could easily have spent our entire time in those two areas. The kitchen is impressively well equipped. There is off-street parking and the quiet neighborhood allows for peaceful relaxation within the house or for walks outside. The management quickly responded to questions and concerns. This place is definitely on our return list.
Elaine , December 2022
Incredible views! We stayed at the end of October and had a great time. The weather served up some big storms, strong winds and crashing surf! Being right on the cliffs was amazing-really felt the boom of waves crashing which was awesome! There’s a wood burning stove that heats the living room right up at night and we loved sleeping with the windows open to hear the waves. Rainy- as expected! But not to worry- the house is full of games and books to read. Watching the waves through the expansive windows with a mug of tea is very cozy. Very comfy beds and sofas. Can’t wait to stay here again! Thank you for sharing your house
Jean , November 2022
Couldn’t ask for a better view! The sound of the crashing waves was soothing and the sea breeze was wonderful! The home was cozy, comfortable and clean.
Andy , November 2022
Very nice comfortable space. Close to everything yet very private.
Dayna , October 2022
Wonderful home, right on the water. The house had EVERYTHING you could possibly need - VERY well stocked. We loved the neighborhood, the views can't be beat! Communication was excellent, hosts were very helpful! We can't wait to return!
Cassi , October 2022
This was an amazing home with views galore. The area is beautiful and lots to see and do. We went coho salmon fishing, drove to Newport for some great restaurants. Depoe bay had great food and shopping. Such a beautiful home we enjoyed staying close as it was so cool to watch the whales and sunsets. A trip we will do again. Loved it!
Mary , September 2022
This is a lovely house, great living/kitchen area with amazing views of the water crashing below. We had a wonderful time sitting out on the deck watching whales for hours. While we went in the summer, I think it would be a lovely place to go in the winter and watch the winter weather. Short drive to Depot Bay and Newport. Nice neighborhood and friendly neighbors.
Melinda , August 2022
Exceeded expectations! We enjoyed watching the waves and saw whales several times. We will be returning to this lovely home!
Kristin , August 2022
If you’re looking for a spot that is close to everything, but still feels far away; this is the spot for you. We spent hours just sitting on the massive back patio, enjoying some beverages and spotting whales every few minutes. The views are incredible, the house is cozy and well-maintained, and you will absolutely feel like this is your personal vacation house on the Oregon coast. Can’t recommend enough.
Lindsay , July 2022
It was a super cute, quiet neighborhood right on the ocean front. We really enjoyed being able to see whales everyday and listening to the waves. Great place for families!
Jamie , July 2022
“We have already booked another visit in October. So well appointed. And the view….wow. Thanks so much!”
Christine , June 2022
If you are looking for a lovely oceanfront home to stay in where you can lay back and watch whales mosey back and forth, then this is the one for you!
Scott , June 2022
I have a whole new respect for the ocean now! The last place we stayed had a beautiful view of the beach and lighthouse in Newport. This place is not that at all. This place gives you a completely different perspective of how powerful the ocean can be. You can actually feel the waves crashing in to the rocks inside the house! My only regret is that I didn't book this house for a week instead of just 3 days. It was an amazing experience and my wife told me afterwards it was the best birthday gift she has ever received. Mission accomplished!
Jay, March 2022
AMAZING view from the deck and main living space! Absolutely gorgeous. We would definitely stay again!
Chris, March 2022
Prepare to be wowed by this home's location and layout. You will never tire of watching the waves break over the rocks with exhilarating sprays and churning white water. The town of Depoe Bay is just a few short minutes north. Shopping, views of sea lions and friendly folks at the Depoe Bay brewing Co. You won't regret this xxxx.
Joanie and Darryl, February 2022
The view was incredible! The house was nicely stocked and we really felt at home here. We would definitely book here again!
Hollie, January 2022
We had a great stay. The house is nice and open with constant views of the ocean. Which by the way feels like you are on top of from the deck. The neighborhood is nice and quiet and very close to both Newport and Depoe Bay, highly recommend getting coffee at Left Coast Coffee in Depoe Bay. Super easy check in and great communication.
Brandon and Allison, January 2022
This home is built for viewing the ocean. The living room and kitchen are designed as a large semi-circle, enabling you to view the ocean from many angles. Both bedrooms also have views of the ocean. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking equipment of all sorts, dishes, cutlery, full silverware-- everything that we needed to cook a delicious meal. The house was clean, airy and surprisingly homey, with lots of books, puzzles, games, and lovingly hand-picked items in the bookcases. We spent much of our time watching the waves crash into the rocks, and we caught sight of a pod of seals who were in our cove for hours. It was everything we hoped for and more.
Joyce, December 2021
This house is the rare experience where it's even more beautiful in person! The spacious kitchen and ocean views made our small Thanksgiving get away perfect. Falling asleep to the sound of waves crashing on the rocks was a highlight in my stay. There's an adorable loft that made for the perfect play area for the kiddos. We'd stay again!
Kaylin, November 2021
The home was exactly what was listed and what we were hoping for. The home was inviting and furnishings very comfortable, and designed to maximize the incredible views! The sound of the waves crashing in the rocks below was soothing and relaxing. The kitchen was stocked with all the things you need to cook (pans, utensils, wine glasses), although we mostly dined out. The only thing to keep in mind is that you should bring your own spices, cooking oil, etc. unlike some VRBO's they don't stock condiments and spices. A great stay and we've already recommended it to family and friends!
Kim, November 2021
Wow what a view! This home is right on the ocean, making it a great vantage point for watching autumn/winter storms. Good kitchen, comfortable beds, lots of light and did I mention the view? Also super convenient to DePoe Bay and other coastal fun. We didn't see any whales (probably a little late in the year) but really appreciated the educational info provided. We'd definitely stay again.
Peg, October 2021
Amazing views and house layout is super fun!! Very clean and the decor is perfect for this house! We saw whales our first morning there as well as some seals. If you love the ocean and want great views especially sunsets this is the place!!! Attention to detail and feel like they thought of everything convenient for our stay. We loved this place and will stay again!!!
Amy, August 2021
This property was great just what we needed. We loved the deck and watching the ocean. We even got to see some whales. We weren't fast enough to get pictures but we enjoyed it anyway. I would highly recommend this property for small groups or families.
Russ, August 2021
If you're looking for the sights and sounds of the ocean for your Oregon coastal stay, this is a great choice. The curved great room and second bedroom are perfectly positioned above a rocky shore. From sunrise through sunset, you have a beautiful direct view, with lots of screen doors to let in the sound of wave and ocean breeze. The house is well maintained and thoughtfully stocked, and communication and directions are good. We enjoyed our time here and would return.
Anonymous, July 2021
This house is awesome! The whales came right up close to the rocks. They were in the area multiple times of the day. The house was perfect had everything you would need for a week away. We will definitely be back.
Elizabeth, July 2021
The location could not be better. Even without whales, the view of the ocean is superb (and we did see some whale flukes in the distance). The house is lovely on the inside: spacious, very well appointed, and with two large bedrooms and two bathrooms, one of them en-suite. The layout ensures privacy. A great place to enjoy the Oregon coast.
Elana, July 2021
Stunning view and stellar location. It was such a comfortable and fun home, with a kitchen that has everything. We'd stay here anytime!
Kilikina, July 2021
Absolutely amazing trip
Deanna, May 2021
House was fitted out better than most homes we have stayed at. The location is amazing.
Ryan, February 2021
Great views definitely recommend!
Anthony, February 2021
This is an amazing place to stay. The pictures are exactly what it's like, and the rental company was the best I've ever worked with on the coast.
Samm January 2021
Photos cannot do the water view justice. It's surreal. This home is full of careful and thougthful touches to make any stay comfortable.
Nancy December 2020
Perfect place to watch winter waves on the coast. Comfortable and clean, with a great kitchen and common area. We all agreed we would definitely stay here again.
Nicole November 2020
Five stars in all categories understates the quality of this rental. Pictures are totally accurate. All the furniture and beds are comfortable. Everything is labeled including light switches which is very helpful. The kitchen is well stocked with equipment and table settings. You can set a stylish table if you so desire. The most wonderful part not fully appreciated with the listing photos is that the house overlooks a cove made of volcanic rock. The surf action even on calm sea days is mesmerizing. You would be hard pressed to find a better central coast home to enjoy.
Howard October 2020
What an amazing property! The house was private, immaculate and so relaxing. The deck provided the most spectacular view- we saw seals and even a whale! Like right in front of us!
William. July 2020
AMAZING HOME!!!!!!
First we want to let the owners know how much we appreciated them letting us rent their house!! We rented this home and we are so impressed! Such a romantic setting! The view is beyond spectacular and when they say hear the surf they really mean it. Sometimes the waves are so huge when the tide is in that they come up so high on the cliff that it's just memorizing! I try to read but I just keep catching myself staring out at the ocean and how huge it is. Besides the view the house is gorgeous inside! I myself being an interior designer give it 5 stars for whoever picked out all the beautiful furnishings! The dark blues just accent everything beautifully. The house is completely stocked for anything and everything you need while you stay. It's super clean and extra cozy but not cluttered at all. If I could I'd stay here forever. It's so relaxing. We have come in the winter so the storms out front are amazing. The kitchen, dining and living room are a circle with 180 degree views that form a circle with huge sliding glass windows so you don't miss any part of the ocean. We found the design of the home to be very impressive. The two bedrooms have awesome views also. The bath tub is large so you can soak at the end of the day. I've never rented a house that has been furnished so well with such nice quality stuff to use. From the shampoo, conditioners, hairdryer, TP , paper towels, baggies, foil and even laundry deterrent they have it all! We are enjoying out stay and will definitely refer this place to out friends and family!!
We will be back again for sure!!
Loved it!! We would give it 10 stars out of 5!!
