Lanai view, 3rd floor
Annie B.

One night stay. Friendly staff. Beautiful location! Cute beachy room decor....BUT carpet in room filthy, coffee pot not cleaned out, cooking utensils dirty- yeck! No excuse for that! Especially during Covid farce! Bring your own wine opener here and no pans for cooking. Also no foil or plastic wrap. Only plastic utensils and paper plates and cups. One real complaint I have -you can feel every darn footstep in the building go through the bed and chair. Why can't they build hotels with better reinforcement???? Like I said, beautiful view of ocean. We put up with the rest for that. Not sure we will be back.

The view outside of my room. These are two of the four fun fire pits available to use.

(This review is for the Lanai at the Cove hotel -- I am not sure what condos are referred to here since the picture is clearly of the hotel on the main Yelp page.) My stay at the Lanai with a friend and my two daughters was great. The rooms tend to fill up fast, so I had my reservation in place for a month to get the last 4-person room they had available. When I arrived I was told that my room was not rentable and that I should have received an e-mail about moving me to a new room. I didn't get the e-mail (they forgot), but that's okay because the room I booked was my least favorite of the 4-person rooms anyway. Instead, I got a newly remodeled room on the upper floor (there are 3 floors and my original was on the ground floor). I was told that the carpet was torn a bit in the unit (and it was) and I would receive a 15% discount for it (which I did). I thought that was very generous since the carpet didn't look great in one spot, but it didn't hinder the experience. I was moved to room 47, on the top floor on the far corner of the unit. As luck would have it, room 46 was also being remodeled, so I didn't have to contend with anyone right next to me. I did have a college group of kids with a dog directly below me and they were pretty loud. They were up until after midnight being loud but my kids managed to fall asleep and my friend and I watched a show on her tablet until they were done. We would have called if it was a real problem, but the floors are pretty thin. Since it was winter hours, even though it was 65 degrees and sunny outside, the heated pool was not available. My youngest would have liked to have swam but if it's winter hours, it's winter hours. The room itself (outside of the carpet) was in exceptional condition. The bathroom is small -- I hit my elbow on the door a time or two while changing in there, but it is clean and the shower was in great shape. The view outside was fantastic, having a rocky beach just outside of the unit and a great view of the ocean. The best part is that that there were ready-made firepits outside (at least 4 of them) and we used one for S'mores and to sit outside and enjoy the ocean. The only knock on this is that there are two huge spotlights that shine on these. So the best two are the farthest outside firepits so you can enjoy the fire and not be completely encompassed by the lights. Although I imagine the lights keep it safe out there. There were two other groups using firepits and they were far enough apart that they didn't bother us at all. Overall, I had a very good experience. For only $135 (winter hours), it was a pretty darn good deal for the service we received (the front desk was very friendly and housekeeping got us towels lightning fast when we requested them. The view was excellent and if we had stayed longer there was a kitchen area we could have easily made dinner with. With the exception of the college kids downstairs -- which I'm sure could have been dealt with if we had called in to complain about -- the experience was wonderful and I would definitely stay again the next time I am in Seaside.

Best place to stay in Seaside! Every room with a fantastic view. Kitchenette with full size coffee maker. Surfers right outside of your window. Just a beautiful, clean place. We've stayed here a couple times now. The only negative about it is that it has really thin walls. You can hear your neighbors. Not that big of a deal to us. Love it here.

This hotel is hands-down a DIAMOND in the rough (so to speak). Only 60 min from Hillsboro! Very clean and quaint rooms with plenty of parking and literally yards from one of THEE best surfing spots on the north Oregon coast known as "The Point" at Seaside Cove (check the beach camera; aka Lanai Beach cam). You are close to supermarkets, restaurants, bar/pubs, gas station and only 8 min from Hwy 26! The hotel staff is totally kind and truly appreciate the Portland peeps seeking a great time along our gorgeous Oregon coast! I 100% recommend The Lanai at Seaside Cove. And don't forget your surf and beach gear!

This is one of the worst hotels that I have been to in the US especially during this pandemic time. When we got there, the bedsheet and pillows still have hair from previous or different guests. The toilet still had red and brown stains below the cover even it had a sanitized sign. When we pulled up the comforter, there were a pink spot like a dried blood. Too much to handle. The only good thing of this hotel is the view-

Update: spoke to nice lady at the front desk and they are moving us to the top floor. Issue resolved quickly and easily This is our first stay at the Lenai, it's an older motel with recent remodel and the rooms are above average. Truly one of the best ocean views of any hotel on the Oregon Coast. And they are pet friendly But.. the walls are so thin!! Omg!! We heard the bed squeaking with the couple of above us had there special moment, he (I assumed he). Was a little gassy this morning and you can hear the toilet flush, they also got up this morning at 6:23 with load voices so load that we thought they were at our door..and heavy steps and they open there slider very 10 minutes or so.. so I think the price of $200.00 average a night is way to much!! I probably wouldn't complain if it was $75 -$100 bucks a night

I almost don't want to tell you how fantastic this place is because I want to keep it for myself. This place is a hidden gem and I can't wait to go back! When I was looking for a place to stay, I think I viewed every hotel in downtown Seaside before checking here. Everywhere else was over priced and the rooms were basic, boring, cookie cutter corporate chain looking. The rooms at the Lanai are all individually decorated and have personality. Our room was sparkling clean when we checked in and the housekeeping staff were all super friendly when I saw them in the hallways. We had originally booked room 27 but when we got there, Barb, said they had a cancellation of one of their nicer rooms and she moved us into room #23. It was a jaw dropping sight when we walked in. A beautiful room with the ocean right outside our sliding glass door. You literally take two steps outside and you are right there. At night, they have two large lights on the corners of the hotel so you can still go out and see. Two of the great features of the hotel are the outdoor heated pool and the beach fire pits. The last hour of the pool time is adults only. The evening times are beautiful out back with all the fire pits sparked up. We purchased wood at the Safeway in town as well as s'more makings. Spending time on the ocean with your own camp fire beat anything you could do in town. I know most people think staying in downtown Seaside would be the best option. But this hotel is only a mile and a half away. We just drove in, parked and walked around. The entire staff here was super friendly, the room was impeccable and the evenings were quiet and serene. I've found my place to always come back too when I visit Seaside.

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I've ever had…read more While we were away, hotel staff allowed other guests into our room because of a "double booking" error. Those guests, together with hotel staff, removed our personal belongings and took them to the front desk without our knowledge or permission. When we returned, we were told there was nothing the hotel could do because it was "an error in their booking system." That's not an excuse--it's the hotel's responsibility to manage its reservations without violating guests' privacy and security. I contacted Booking.com, and they reached out to the hotel on our behalf. We requested a refund since strangers had been allowed into our room and had handled our personal belongings. The hotel refused, claiming they weren't responsible because the mistake was caused by their online booking system. Blaming your own system instead of taking responsibility is unacceptable. To make matters worse, the staff was completely unprofessional and showed no concern for what had happened. There was no apology, no accountability, and no attempt to make the situation right. We paid nearly $600 for a single night, only to have our privacy violated and our belongings handled by strangers. If a hotel is willing to let other people into your occupied room because of an internal mistake, how can anyone feel safe staying there? Avoid this hotel. If they can let strangers into your room once, they can do it again.

The entire town gives off major retro vibes which is right up our alley but back to the hotel itself. The highlight was most definitely the location itself and having a patio to soak up some morning sun while doing some bird watching or enjoying a book out there while your 3 year old takes a nap (if you're lucky). The facilities themselves were a bit dated. Hallways, elevator, pool, etc. A nice feature was the "fire" pits outside that activate around sunset. The cable as well was quite confusing and they didn't even have a normal guide channel. Small gripe, I know but you try navigating 150 channels blind trying to find Bluey for your cranky toddler. The continental breakfast was very middling to poor along with the coffee being weak (sadly). If they were a bit better value maybe somewhere along the lines of $100 a night they might merit 4 stars. They earn the 3 however primarily due to the location itself, the immensely powerful pressure from the shower and the aforementioned balcony and view.

We laid down on top of the bed just to rest a bit. Little did we know that someone else rented the room on line and the owner didn't respond to our email. She came back to the inn and rented us a remote room in another building. Our mistake was not checking out the room before hand and just taking it. It was an interesting two story old duplex. Old as in interesting and quirky. I loved that it had a kitchen and couldn't imagine what it was like to live there back in the day. Anyway the bedroom is upstairs - very steep short stairs and the only bathroom is downstairs. As I am of an age where I need to get up at least once a night to use the facilities, I didn't feel safe walking down the stairs half awake. Thank goodness the couch was very comfortable downstairs. While checking out the space there was a door across the hall from the bedroom about 2 feet above the ground. We opened the door and was surprised to see another bedroom - there was a little ladder inside that would have allowed an easy climb into the room. Breakfast was in the main building, just help yourself to drinks or wrapped bakery items. Also yogurt and other goodies.

We finally made a reservation in February for a September stay lasting three days. It cost over $400 a night with taxes and fees. First, the good: Location. You're right on the Prom. Our room faced the beach and we could see the turnaround just a block away. Easy walking distance to Broadway's shops and restaurants. Our room was on the first floor and sitting on the patio was cool, even with all the attention you'll get from passersby on the Prom. Big jetted tub in the bathroom. There was plenty of hot water to fill it and it worked great. Nice big TV. Fifty inch screen, wall-mounted. Cable with multiple remotes was confusing, but this is usually the case with most hotels. Fairly easy access to an HDMI input on the back, so if you pack the right cables you can use your laptop to bring your streaming services from home. Nice big king size bed. Must have been fairly new. Fireplace with remote. Fake of course, but you could use it with or without heat. Mini kitchen was convenient. But there was a LOT of bad: After our first night, my wife was horrified to discover something awful on her side of the bed. The sheets, lower and upper, were hideously contaminated with some nasty filth. We don't know whether it was feces or blood, but it sure was gross! My wife is in the hospitality industry and went across the street to the office to demand a refund for our first night's stay. At first they only refunded about half the money, but before we left my wife went after them again and we got close to a full refund for one night. This is the only reason you won't see pictures of the filth here, although we have them. You would think they would thoroughly clean the room between guests, especially at $400 a night, but that is clearly not the case. Yuck! The room was fairly cramped, probably because this hotel was built before king size beds were common. Our room was on the ground floor, and although noise from the rooms on either side was not an issue, you could hear every step taken by the occupants on the floor above. And their dog. Leave your damn dog at home! Parking is weird and somewhat limited. I won't attempt to explain it here but it was a minor nuisance. Still a nuisance nevertheless. If you have a small car or SUV it's probably not an issue. The small refrigerator was very difficult to open or close, with the door dragging heavily against the carpet. The coffee maker didn't work, and flooded the countertop when used. My wife got them to replace it. The bathroom fan didn't work, which was frustrating. We reported this to the front desk and they sent a kid out with a ladder as we were leaving for a little while. When we got back, it still didn't work, and there was no further follow-up. The overall condition of the hotel is not great. The carpet wasn't terribly worn out but was far from new. The furniture was very old and worn. All the doorframes were worn out, loose and rather insecure. They use plain old fashioned keys, and will not issue more than one key per room. Another nuisance. The door to the patio was difficult to open, close, and lock. The screen door wouldn't stay on its track. I give them a pass on this, as it's an issue for every hotel we've stayed in on the Oregon coast, what with the salty air. Standing on the Prom, you can see how rusty the roof is. This is an OLD hotel. Its many problems will only be solved by a major remodel, or knocking it down and rebuilding from scratch. That work is clearly overdue. Would we ever stay here again? Hell no, and especially not at $400 a night. There are lots of hotels to choose from in Seaside and you can do better than this.

At 29" high, the bed was higher than I like, however it was comfortable. The toilet height was suitable for a tall adult.  The shower is a tub with no hand holds to steady a senior citizen when getting in or out.  A non slip mat was in the tub. There was a microwave and mini fridge (no freezer compartment). There is no in room coffee maker, go downstairs to the lobby.   I appreciate an ice water dispenser in the lobby of motels which this location did not offer.  I used the ice machine and water bottle fill station in the Fitness Center - remember your key card. There is one elevator to service 4 floors and it had a tendency to move slowly.  There were many puddles of water between the pool and elevator, thus the caution signs - the type of tile in front of the elevator was smooth and slick when wet. Parking was ample. Suggestion for big name chain motels is to have some non-ADA senior adult rooms where the bathrooms are outfitted with tall toilets, grab bars in or just outside the showers - be they tub or walk-in, and 26" high beds.
