It was a very nice stay - just wished our room 113 didn't have a home in front of our balcony. If you have a pet the rooms are on the first floor and with the street in front of you and homes it makes it hard to enjoy the ocean view.

Whaler=perfection
This hotel is incredible. Some highlights were the balcony with ocean view and the most perfect sliding door/window combo to let in the ocean breeze and hear the waves, thoughtful goodie basket filled with local snacks, high end Keurig that also does iced along with Sleepy Monk pods (plus great coffee and tea options in the lobby 24-7), gorgeous hot tub and sauna with a pool in a separate room which is great in case there are rowdy kids in the pool and you want your own space (but they were both empty when we went), ability to watch cable or streaming, wonderful location, beautiful modern bathroom... I could go on and on. Plus all the staff we interacted with were super friendly. Can't wait to go back!

Wonderful Place to Stay
We are loving our stay at the Whaler. It’s fresh and clean. The pool, hot tub and sauna are amazing! The staff is friendly. Also, the little treats and coffee/tea station are stocked with top notch, Oregon-made items. Lastly, the view! It’s what you come here for.

The whaler was incredibly cute! The room felt renovated and new inside. Spacious, the most comfortable bed and pillows, amazing tiny balcony overlooking the ocean (from across the street) and a basket of local treats from Oregon. There was a breakfast food truck in the morning and endless supplies of coffee at the check in/out area. Would definitely stay again!

This is a refurbished older hotel and they have done a really nice job with the style. Doors to the outside are the same which makes them a little noisy to the outside with people walking. Great location right across from the beach. We had a glorious view! The beds are comfortable too. Only complaint is the lighting in the bathroom above the sink is very dim.
