About this apartment rental

Welcome to Whales Watch, a lovingly curated beachfront haven nestled at the furthest edge of Heceta Beach—where land meets sea in a breathtaking embrace. This 1-bedroom, 1000 sq. ft. duplex invites you to step straight from your living room onto the soft, sandy shore. Slide open the glass door and let the rhythm of the waves become your soundtrack.

From the patio, drink in sweeping views that stretch from the Siuslaw River Jetty to the majestic Heceta Head Lighthouse. Watch whales breach in the distance, bald eagles soar overhead, and pelicans glide gracefully across the horizon. It’s nature’s theater, and you’ve got front-row seats.

Coastal Elegance Meets Comfort
Inside, the spacious king bedroom is a tranquil retreat, adorned with Mediterranean oak furnishings, a cozy electric fireplace, and a private sitting area. The ensuite bathroom adds convenience and privacy, while the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area faces the ocean—blurring the line between indoors and out.
Slipcovered furniture, antique touches, and global accents create a warm, collected ambiance. The loveseat transforms into a twin sleeper, perfect for a third guest or child. And tucked into the heart of the home is a true showpiece: a 1902 Bush & Gertz Cabinet Grand upright piano, lovingly maintained and ready to be played. Surrounded by original oil paintings from the owners’ travels, it invites you to make music, dream, and linger.

A Kitchen That Inspires
Whether you're preparing a beachside brunch or a candlelit dinner, the kitchen is stocked with everything you need—including a bread maker, crock pot, turkey roaster, air fryer, and plenty of wine glasses to toast the sunset. The dining table seats four, with a two-person bar for casual bites and conversation.

A Stay That Stirs the Soul
From morning coffee as seabirds dance across the waves to evening melodies drifting from the piano, Whales Watch offers a one-of-a-kind coastal experience. It’s a place to reconnect—with nature, with loved ones, and with yourself.

It was picture perfect. Other than a small glitch getting in (which could just as well have been user error), it was wonderful. And they were quick to respond and help with the glitch. The digs were beautiful, clean. Plenty of extras I didn't have to worry about (coffee pods, filters, condiments for sandwiches/cooking). I spent most of my time inside (which wasn't much) on the recliner, covered by a very fuzzy blanket, in front of the fireplace, listening to the waves crash just steps away. When I come back to Oregon, this is where I'm staying.
