This place is very cute with thoughtfully decorated rooms. The owners are awesome people. They make you feel very welcome and are very friendly. It's also about a block to the beach. Do yourself a favor and stay here instead of one of the chain hotels in Seaside! You can thank me later! read more

"4 Paws and a Tail Wag" -Ruthie Bea (credit for this clever quote goes to Annie) Sandy Cove Inn was such a delightful surprise! I was just looking for a place to stay with my four-footed friend, Ruthie Bea, but this eclectic home away from home turned out to be so much more. Our room "Smooth Sailing" was clean, quiet and comfortable. And as its name suggests, it was decorated in sailing vessels. It's situated just two blocks away from a Mobi-Mat that leads to a big sandy beach. This beach is perfect for beachcombing and chasing the surf. (Mobi-Mats are designed for strollers and wheelchairs but are great for short legged dogs and folks like me with knees that struggle in deep sand). Additionally, we were about a mile straight shot from Seaside's unique downtown area and some really excellent clam chowder. One of Ruthie's and my favorite things about Sandy Cove was getting to chat with the absolute gem of an owner, Annie, and hear about all her great finds (and treats! Lots of treats and ear scritches). Each room is different and there's at least twelve that are dog friendly, so Ruthie and I will be back again and again. read more

Wonderful place to stay, themed rooms are awesome. Wonderful personable staff and overall a wonderful experience.

Pet friendly. The only thing that was annoying is I made reservations online. I paid $122. Once I check in, because I had a dog, they charged an additional $18. I wish this was known up front. This never gave me time to explore options because I thought $122 with a dog was good. This place is right next the the beach. Super cozy. Cute place. Just wish all prices was disclosed online. read more

I was on off-season rates and charged $136 per night and at the same time the rates were $94 per night on booking.com which we accidentally discovered while at the hotel because a few other places caught our eye for the next trip. When asking the owner's wife at check-out about this, we got a lot of 'not my department' excuses. While I appreciate the unique decor of each room and that they are clean, any extras you may require have to be sought after from the office, like a hair dryer. What if we had wanted to leave before the office opened at 8:00? I also think most accommodations in the area are "family owned". read more

Sandy Cove Inn - Hotels Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

Excellent room actually roomy for a 1 queen bed room. We stayed in the garden room. All rooms have a seperate theme. It was beautiful. The only thing missing is a/c, not super surprising because the beach doesn't usually get too hot. read more

Rooms are tiny but clean and not crammed or cluttered, so you can actually move around the floor without dodging furniture (or your roommate). Beds are comfortable and I love that they had a spare blanket and 2 more (firmer) pillows in room. And thank you, for having real hangers for my coat and shirts. Those stupid anti-theft hangers rarely slide quietly or smoothly and drive me nuts when trying too get the hangers on and off of the permanently attached loop at those chain hotels. We stayed in an upstairs no-pet room, with single queen bed. It would be fun to see each of the other room themes. Friendly guy at check in. He gave us all the information we asked for regarding places to eat, so we had a goal in mind, once we woke up. Safeway grocery store was only about a mile North of us, so we could grab a 6-pack of non alcoholic beer and a bunch of snack food at 9:45pm, before settling into bed to watch the first hour of a loaner VHS tape of Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window. Affordable comfort, good Wi-Fi reception, friendly staff, coffee, Stash Tea and an upright piano in lobby were a nice touch. My only 3 complaints: 1. I was forced to wash my hands &/or face with cold water in bathroom sink, unless I let it run for about 45-69 seconds (Pet Peeve of mine). 2. The annoyance-noise (could hear a neighbor's TV playing through the thin walls, and also the mini-fridge & wall heater that kept kicking on & off, were a bit distracting while trying to get to sleep.). 3. Wall plugs by bed were so loose our tiny USB chargers for phones, barely stayed plugged in (mine fell out of wall in the dark and that was no fun!) My boyfriend's only complaint was that he thought the shower curtain wasn't mounted right (or tub too narrow?) He felt like his shoulders were either touching the shower curtain or wall his entire shower, and he is just shy of 6', 204 lbs, and only wears a large or XL shirt; (he's not exactly a linebacker.) I/ we don't usually stay in Seaside, but that could change, so long as we don't need a full kitchen and more space. Sometimes you just want comfort & no-frills without it feeling like your staying in a kid's backyard fort. I was on a tight budget this trip, because I've been off work on FMLA for 2 months, and it was so nice and comfortable, that I'd stay again, even after I'm back to work, and will be able to afford a 4-star hotel! read more

What an AMAZING place! I had the best experience at the Sandy Cove Inn!!! From the creative theme rooms to the exceptional customer service that I received from the staff, this place is definitely a 5 out of 5, GREAT!!! The rooms are super clean and the location is PERFECT! I will definitely be going back to visit!!! read more

This is my 2nd time staying here and will be my go to hotel in Seaside from here on out. Exceptional front desk staff who are always friendly and inviting. The rooms are always clean and welcoming. Honestly best bed and pillows of any hotel I have stayed at in a long time. I love the proximity to the beach (just a short walk) and the pub across the street and cafe a block away are both great. Both times I have stayed in non-pet rooms but I am happy to know I could stay here if I needed to bring my dog too. read more

This inn is the cutest, cleanest, most convenient, and friendliest one that we've stayed in for a very long time! At check-in we were even given a goodie bag for our dog. Each room has a theme and is decorated with antiques - very homey. It's a short walk to the Prom, which is a walkway along the ocean leading to the downtown area (shops, bars, restaurants, arcades, ...) Don't miss the actual salt works used for the Lewis and Clark expedition. We are so glad that we found Sandy Cove Inn! Highly recommend read more

Again, good time. Love it was pet friendly. Agreeing with other reviewers extremely friendly staff. House keeping lady was very sweet. I am sure I will come back... Downfall... Thin walls. Felt bad when my pup barked early in the morning read more

Sandy Cove Inn - My room, the dog friendly queen bed. - Hotels Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

Had the pleasure of staying here Aug 25-29. We arrived by motorcycle and parking was great. I have stayed in some high end hotels but, this by far was the cleanest & well kept. Each room has a theme and ours was Paris. It is located 23mins from the main tourist area but, the walk is along the Promenade with the ocean as your companion. read more

This is such a sweet little hotel. It's family owned & very well kept up. We stayed in the family size room & it was more than perfect for our family of four. There's a little kitchenette which is perfect. Across the street is a great little pub & then a family owned grocery store. We will always stay here when we're in Seaside. read more

The price was good for the area. The room was clean. The tv was really small, and the bed not comfortable. We could hear the people above us walking around. read more

This place is pretty dang cute. I was looking for a cheaper place and this inn is a decent price. The rooms are clean and have themes. My biggest complaint is something that is my fault. I thought it was closer to downtown. It's actually a pretty far walk. It is really close to the beach itself though which is nice. It's also across the street from a small market place and a restaurant/pub with amazing food. The rooms are a bit cramped is you get the one bed rooms. Smaller than I thought. They have pet friendly rooms at an extra cost. There is free WiFi in the rooms and lobby. :-) read more

Sandy Cove Inn - Sunrise seaside Oregon - Hotels Near Me - Seaside, Oregon

We really enjoyed this place. The employees here were nicer and more accommodating than any I have encountered at any hotel ever. Their offerings of a blanket, towel, crate, treat, free poobags and free bowl all for our dog were "above and beyond," in my book. The room was so cute and borderline kitschy (which I find charming.) This area of town felt safe, even late at night (though it's never safe to assume.) The free coffee/tea in the check-in office were a really nice touch (...free cookies at times, too!) In addition to, the free movies and VCR player. Granted, it's like time-travel back to 1985, (we never even watched a movie,) but who knows - maybe you will arrive to Seaside to have suddenly stormy horrible weather. It's really an added "plus." Our mattress and pillows were very comfortable and the heater worked well, we slept solidly the whole time. The downsides are: the super-thin walls (we could hear our neighbor upstairs banging around all the time) and the loudness / extreme-water-pressure of the shower/bath. All in all though, still 5 solid full stars. We will definitely return. I loved the U-Pub across the street, as well as the Osprey Cafe down the road (try their breakfast!) The market across the street, though very (expectedly) overpriced, was handy and convenient. The location to the beach was A++ as well. If they offer the same deal (through Groupon if I remember correctly) then we will most certainly return because for the price in this area, the Sandy Cove is a gem. read more

The ultimate family owned and operated hotel ever! The staff are super friendly and go above and beyond to make sure your stay is the best it can be. It's away from the noise of downtown but close enough to stroll along the beach and get there in no time. There's a grocery mart, restaurant, and cafe a few steps away, too! The atmosphere is quiet and relaxing. Next time we visit Seaside we are definitely going with Sandy Cove Inn! read more

My husband, friend and I had a wonderful stay this past weekend at Sandy Cove Inn. I really value genuine customer service, and that is what we got there. The gentleman who checked us in was so gracious and caring. We were disappointed when we saw that another guest had snagged Jurassic Park from the Inn's movie library, but this gentleman (sorry, I don't remember his name) told us he would bring it to us whenever the guest had returned it. I was so surprised when he knocked on our door later that evening with the movie! He followed through with his promise, and I really appreciate his thoughtfulness. The rooms were so clean and I loved the themes we had between our two rooms. The idea of themed rooms is just really cool to begin with! It also doesn't hurt that the inn is very close to the beach, and you can walk down in the morning and watch the sun come up. We were given a list of all the "best places" to eat in town when we checked in. We ended up eating at the pizza place listed and had a macaroni and cheese pizza for dinner (so good!). I would definitely stay there again. Highly recommend. read more

Purchased a Groupon for this Inn and could not be happier with the experience. Drove up 12 hours from SF with a friend and we were reconsidering staying the second night in Portland but when we got there, we were so happy with the customer service experience, we decided to stay. We were greeted by a young gentleman. He printed a list of restaurants and circled all of his favorites. Gave us great advice on breakfast spots. He pointed over to the VHS and we grabbed a few for the room. We were told we had the buoy room. When we got there, we couldn't believe how charming it was! Everything you dream of in a sleepy beach town home, you get with this room, and it's great! Very clean, very cozy, and very comfortable. Close to EVERYTHING: the beach, the boardwalk, the downtown, the grocery store (across the street), and good eats! Loved and look forward to returning! read more

Had a wonderful stay! So close to the beach, super clean, cute & comfortable room. A great value. Such nice, courteous and helpful staff. We stayed in the "kids room" number 15 and had everything we needed. Will definitely stay again. read more

Not just "pet friendly" they are EXCITED to meet your pet. There's a great little grassy pet area on site for early morning potty breaks. Rooms are themed and adorable. Everything was very clean and lovely. Fresh hot coffee each morning in the lobby. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the nostalgia of the VCR in each room with VHS available in the lobby. There's a good bar/food directly across the street next to a little mini-mart, a coffee/cafe one block away and the ocean is two blocks away. The promenade starts right by the beach access and it's a lovely 15 minute walk down the boardwalk to get to the downtown area. This is, to me, the PERFECT location for a beach vacation. I will be staying here every time I am able to make it to the coast! read more

We got a group together and stayed in the Columbia house. If you look up sweet and cozy in the dictionary this place is it. About a two minute walk to the beach. There where 2 bathrooms, four bedrooms and a fold out couch. The kitchen was large and had all the amenities. You can go to the front office and barrow a VHS movie. I recommend "The Goonies". I slept like a baby, and was impressed at how clean everything was. Stay here you wont be disappointed! read more

We just left Seaside today and wanted to say my family and I had a wonderful experience here at the Sandy Cove Inn great customer service and the room was just right for my family and just a walk away from the beach..I definitely recommend the Sandy Cove Inn we will be returning again ..Thank You read more

Yes, still 4 stars. I still like the place. But must make a note; never ever book room 17 again. (French Country.) Room is pretty. But! The back side of hotel is loud in a way I've never noticed any other visit and I've stayed many times. This is apparently next to a family room. (Rather emm, rambunctious children that weren't disciplined earlier, not staff issue, but for the record.) But okay, I'll deal. It got quiet. Then they came back and are taking showers. We're on shower 3. I know this because it's LOUD. The water rushing through pipes, that is. Though perhaps this speaks well for the hot water? Unless they're settling for cold. Ah, but wait. I do believe that is the hot water heater I hear running. (I'd guess they'll hear mine in the morning?) Sigh. I may need to drink myself to sleep. Back to the front next time. 1940s room, or monopoly or...anything but this. Even the wall seems thinner. Oh...and the coffee pot didn't stay hot. Curses. Foiled again. Oh but wait! Next room is for 2? So is 19? So, um, Hmm. read more

Bought a 2 night stay on group on and this place is amazing. Only about 1/2 mile from the board walk and a two block walk from its own beach. Very clean and quite rooms. Kid and pet friendly and the staff was very welcoming. I will be back many more times for sure. Thanks. read more

This was my favorite part of our stay in Seaside. Loved the service. We walked into the lobby and got some coffee. Then Debbie walked in and greeted us. She printed out a list of restaurants around the area, informed us of the vcr in the room and the shelf of movies that we can choose from. That became a routine, in the 2 nights we stayed there. We would come back early (around 5-6pm), pick out a movie, and get some coffee. The other staff members were friendly. In the morning, we would go to the lobby, return the movie, get some coffee, and talk to Debbie before we headed out. The minute we walked into the room, we felt the warmth that came from a working heater. The bed was comfy. There was even an extra blanket in the closet, just in case. The bathroom was so clean. We got the blue room and, from the walls to the turquoise drawers, it was blue. However, there were three lamps that had mellow shades of pink. Everything was just well-decorated, and really we couldn't have asked for anything better. Across the street: a restaurant called the U Street Pub & Eatery and a family market. Downtown is a mile's walk away. Promenade Street will lead you there, and that's about 2 minutes away. It was a pleasant getaway. I can't wait to be back. read more

Management staff is wonderful. Kind and easy to get ahold of. Even added a microwave to our room no charge. Big downside is the older rooms and walls that block little sound. The occupants of the room next to us got in at 11pm. We could heard muffled voices talking and anytime water was running in the other rooms. Also, NO air conditioning (No A/C). Breeze with window open was cool enough. But bonfire smoke started sneaking in around 10pm and had to close window. So using the white noise of the A/C to help with sound isn't an option. read more

We went back to the Sandy Cove inn again last weekend. We stayed in a different room this time/ quaint, clean and comfortable! We left for the day and when we returned, there was a bottle of sparkling cider, 2 glasses and a very nice Anniversary card/ We love this place and will be making it a traditional getaway place! read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. We stayed here for the first time this weekend and were absolutely amazed. Not only is this hotel very reasonably price but it exceeds in every way. The staff was incredibly friendly and more than accommodating. The rooms were very nice and well kept and you can tell the place had been remodeled. The hotel is very conveniently located right near the beach and EXACTLY 1 mile from Broadway Street (walking distance by all means). There is a grocery store literally 20 feet across the street from the hotel and the shower isn't one of those annoying shower heads that limits the amount of water that comes out. This place blew me away in every aspect. Sure, it's not some 5 star Hilton hotel but it's the perfect place to stay when you're visiting Seaside and don't want to pay some ridiculous price for a hotel right off Broadway or the Promenade. You will NOT regret your stay here by any means! read more

My boyfriend and I spent 3 nights at the Sandy Cove Inn and had the best experience! We had planned on a late check in but we ended up arriving about 4 hours early. The man at the front desk, Damon (if I remember correctly), was extremely friendly and checked us in right away, gave us restaurant recommendations and a few pamphlets on things to do and see in Seaside. It is a nostalgia boutique so don't expect sleek, high class decor. Instead, enjoy the charming, tastefully themed rooms! We stayed in the "garden room" on the top floor in the corner so we had a view of the cute beach houses in the surrounding neighborhood. Great selection of movies in the lobby to watch in the nostalgic VCR player in each room. Clean, tidy, two blocks from the beach and right across the street from a GREAT lunch and dinner spot. Can't wait to stay there again! read more

After making many calls trying to stay around the area without paying an arm for one night we found this place. Very affordable and with all the basics, the staff was super attentive and helpful, very charming. The room was very clean and had everything we needed for a night stop in our road trip. The only downside was that you can hear everything happening outside. read more

I was pretty skeptical to stay here at first to be honest. But it was much better than expected. We got the sail boat room, which was nicely decorated and clean. But it didn't look over done and tacky. The staff was great, SO helpful! We really had a great time here. You're about a 3 minute walk from the beach and 15 minute walk to down town area. I took a star off because the bathroom the shower was pretty outdated, and when you turn on the facet the pressure is way too high water gets on the counter and the knob falls off. Also, we were woken up by our neighbors upstairs stomping around like a herd of elephants at 4 am. read more

I love this place! Service is wonderfully attentive and kind. Room are all themed differently but each has a VCR! The lobby has a bunch of different movies to pick from to keep the fun going even when it's too dark to go on the beach. Speaking of the beach, it's only three blocks away! My favorite place to stay in Seaside and I will be coming back! read more

I stayed for two nights with my boyfriend, and we had an amazing experience at Sandy Cove Inn! I originally booked for three nights; however, something came up the night before we left and I had to call and see if I would be able to adjust my reservation. I initially had to leave a message and was a little worried it was too short of notice. Within just a few minutes after leaving a message, I received a call and was able to shorten our trip with no problem. As soon as we checked in the next day, the feel of stepping to the counter was very welcoming. There were different brochures of things to do in the area, and we were even given a list of all best places to eat based on different types of food. There was quite a variety of VHS movies available and we enjoyed movies we haven't seen in such a long time! One of the nights we stayed, I realized I didn't have a cork-screw for wine! I went to the front desk and it was readily available with glasses. I was told it was a common request due to anniversaries, special events, etc. I was thankful that they were prepared. Overall, I would definitely recommend Sandy Cove Inn for anyone's stay. It's conveniently located across the street from a market, minutes away from the beach, restaurants, gas station, aquarium, EVERYTHING! The staff is wonderful, the rooms were neatly kept, and the experience overall was great! read more

I've stayed here a few times and will continue to do so. South of downtown Seaside and a great motel to stay at if you find yourself equally drawn to Cannon Beach (but wanting to avoid Cannon rental prices). Staff at Sandy Cove are always a pleasure, the motel is right there by the beach. Across the street is a little grocer and not far away is a delicious Chinese/American restaurant that you can get take-out and bring back to your room. I love the ambiance of this place, very low-key and VERY CLEAN, and a great place to come back to after a day at the beach and out shopping. I find the beds more than comfortable and Ave U is great to walk up and down and take in the sights (and smells) of the beach front. read more
