About this house rental
This lovely, modest, well-maintained home reflects simple elegance, for a restful vacation with stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. Eat dinner on the balcony, or in the dining room that views the sea. Walls of windows grace both levels, and the sound of the sea is close enough to soothe your sleep each night. A circular floor plan on the main level allows for easy movement through the well-designed kitchen and living room areas. There is enough room to dance or do yoga, with a modest media center for music. The two upstairs bedrooms feature comfortably firm queen beds. The downstairs bedroom is setup with bunk beds for adults or children, in a roomy space with sea vistas and sea sounds. The downstairs family room, with a keyboard, books, games and puzzles allows teens to have a space to themselves, if desired. There are sometimes harbor seals on the beach at low tide, near the mouth of the Alsea Bay, within walking distance from the beach entry at Bayshore. The Alsea Bay is popular for crabbing and fishing and there are boats and crab pots to rent at the local marina. There is a stunning amount of bird life on the beaches, with sightings of pelicans, eagles, marbled murrelets, willets, great blue herons, sandpipers, plovers, cormorants, oystercatchers, terns, gulls, swallows, hummingbirds, cedar waxwings and more. Beautiful songbird calls are present mornings and evenings in spring and summer at Whales Wonder. Owner offers a compendium of interesting places to visit, once your vacation is booked. Natural simplicity is embraced at our "home away from home" and we hope all of our guests enjoy the ambiance. If you can please make an "inquiry" with your chosen dates, rather than an immediate "booking", it will enhance the Vrbo process with this attractive beach home.

We enjoyed our stay at Whales Wonder. I would caution people with small children or older guests as the stairs going to the lower level are incredibly slippery. Each member of our party (ages 14 to 50) slipped on the stairs. I would also recommend bringing cooking spices and trash bags as those were not provided. Additionally, if you want to use the pool, there is a daily fee per person.

Very clean rental. Nice view! Only negative was the old family room sofa. Very uncomfortable. Host was responsive and available for any questions we had. There was a tsunami watch while we were staying here and she contacted us to let us know we are high enough and won’t be a problem. Our family had a great time.

Property has great views and is a short walk to the beach. Good space for families to gather.
All the beds are HARD and lumpy. No one in my group got a good nights sleep. Furniture is really outdated.
BBQ worked well, and kitchen has all the dishes, utensils, and equipment you need (we did stock the salt and pepper).
