A beautiful beachfront getaway with amazing views, great service, and everything Cannon Beach has to offer just a short
Pros:

Fantastic ocean views from the room, especially from the dining area overlooking the beach. The location is perfect — just steps from the beach and within walking distance of great restaurants and shops. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The staff provided excellent service, and overall it offered great value for money.

Cons:

Nothing significant. We had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

A wonderful place to stay next to everything you need at Cannon Beach.
Pros:

I thought this place was great, close to the shops and not too far from haystack rock. It’s a bit of a walk but it’s on the beach so who cares! Our room was beautiful, I loved the bay window bed and the natural light.

Cons:

I don’t know if they had one, I didn’t see it, but somewhere to wash your feet so that you don’t enter the rooms and get sand everywhere would be great. Also, if you have a difficult time sleeping with light, there is a ton of natural light and it’s from windows up high so you can’t cover them. Awesome during the day but a little bright at 6am.

Great location, comfortable and homey stay.
Pros:

Location is excellent. Cannon Beach, Haystack Rock and so much of the town is easily walkable. Ecola State Park is an easy drive away as well. Water pressure, hot water, plumbing. full kitchen were great.

Cons:

Sofa bed isn’t great (few of them are). It would be better if there was a second bathroom, but not a deal breaker.

Pros:

Quaint older vroom with a nice kitchen and separate sleeping area

Cons:

The bed was very small for two people. The location was close to the beach, but right off a main road...not much privacy

Pros:

The location was superb. The queen bed was very comfortable and our unit was remodeled with modern decor. On the smaller side but very clean.

Cons:

The amount of light that comes through the skylights and windows made it hard to sleep.

Pros:

We had a fantastic room on the top floor with a balcony overlooking the beach. The room was nicely decorated, with high ceilings ,skylights and a wonderful fireplace. It was located close to the beach as well as restaurants and shops nearby.

Cons:

It could have had breakfast but it was located next to a fantastic coffee shop with great pastries 2 minutes away from our room.

Very comfortable vacation spot!
Pros:

Fantastic location, right on the estuary, a couple blocks from the main intersection with shops and restaurants. Plenty of space to spread out, well-stocked kitchen.

Cons:

The check in time was 3, then 4, but the room wasn’t ready until 4:30. We happily tucked into a restaurant for a bowl of chowder.

Comfortable, clean, and so close to the oceanside! I would return again.
Pros:

Location was central to walk all around and close to beach access. There was plenty of windows for seabreeze and light. Doors open lets in the ocean sounds!

Cons:

I would have preferred to have unobstructed oceanfront views but this room was available at a decent price. The comfort of the space made up for it.

This stay was wonderful, with clean, cozy rooms and one of the best ocean views I have ever seen.

Location: The beach is steps away, and there are a bunch of restaurants in the neighborhood within 2-3 mins of walking.
Staff: The staff were super kind and very attentive.

Cons:
