My husband and I got married in Gearhart last September and Gearhart by the Sea was our home base for the wedding weekend. All of our family and friends stayed at the resort and we had a great experience. I highly recommend checking out pictures of the rooms on their website before booking as the units are privately owned and... More

I've been visiting the Cannon Beach - Gearhart area twice a year since 1969. There are some wonderful places to stay - the Stephanie Inn, Cannon Beach Hotel, Surfsand Resort, The Inn at Cannon Beach, The Lodges at Cannon Beach, etc. - but Gearhart by the Sea is not one of them. We were quoted a price and the manager... More

We recently stayed at Gearhart by the Sea and had an outstanding time. We stayed in room 748 which was a top floor, corner unit. When we stepped into the room I was amazed with the size of the room. It has two bedroom's, two bath with an upstairs loft that the kids just loved. Normaly I would have paid... More

Unit 468 was impressive when we first entered. Spacious ground floor unit went rapidly downhill as we inhaled the sour smell that permeated every inch. Stains on upholstered dining chairs of unidentified origin. Thin mismatched towels. Dead flowers in deck pots, one of which had four old cigar butts in it. toilet ran half the time we flushed it.

We stayed here with our family, and didn't know how to choose a good unit. They are individually owned and furnished. Ours was a bit run down and shabby, the bedding was circa 1980's. The couch looked good, but sat poorly. Glad we didn't spend much time in our room. More

This was my husbands first trip to the Oregon Coast. We found out about this place from some friends who were going at the same time we were planning our trip. When we made our reservation we were informed that the condo we were going to rent had not been rented out before and we could not see pictures of... More

I cannot vouch for the other condos, but stay away from Pacific View V467. It had petrified Cheezits under one headboard, sticky knobs in the kitchen, what must have been catastrophic water damage poorly covered, cleaning chemicals/perfume so bad you HAD to leave the room, spots (one nasal discharge, two who knows) on sheets and bedspreads (wondered if this ground...

I would like to apologies for your stay. All our units are individually owned and most units have been updated. This unit has had some updating done in the last couple of years and more is scheduled. There is no excuse for the unit being dirty and it is unfortunate that occured during your stay. The office should have inquired... More

We stayed at the large unit across the street from the charming photo that is featured in the typical advertisment photos for Gearhart By the Sea. This one is a boxy looking building with out any charm that overlooks the ocean. So, the view is nice, inspite of being quite far back from the ocean front and having a number... More

Apparently the maids have a great gig....cleaning is optional. The room was so dirty and even though it was brought to the attention of the main office, it was not addressed. The room, 401, had great potential but everything in the unit was sticky. The furniture had stains everywhere, the leather sofa had spills all over it & the chair... More
