Surftides Beach Resort

I hated this place! I had never stayed here prior to this trip, and monthly visit the coast for at least a weekend. The folks at check in were NOT friendly or helpful at all. I made my reservation online, and the room was nothing like the online photo. The room was garish, with big letters written on the wall, a lighted anchor on the wall. The request I made prior to my arrival wasn’t taken care of before my arrival and the fireplace wouldn’t light. I had to call the front desk twice within 5 minutes of being in the room. I only was allowed 2 bath towels, and the fridge (where I put the purchased bottles of water from the front desk) was set too high and froze the waters. Someone had to come to fix the fireplace, and I mentioned my dissatisfaction. He mentioned he would let someone know, but I don’t think he did. He did say the hotel was under renovations as an entire side of the hotel had some kind of electrical issues. As a matter of fact, the electricity did go out twice during my two day stay. The restaurant wasn’t much better. Once I was seated, three different people took my order for food. After asking 2 different people for bread, none came. It wasn’t till my dinner arrived where I asked a third time when some actually came. I do a LOT of travelling and I stay at hotels a lot. For what I paid for this room, and for what I got as an experience of this hotel, I feel gypped. Due to the holiday weekend, other hotels were booked, so leaving really wasn’t an option. Do yourself a favor, don’t stay here. Seriously. Unless you want to pay too much for horrible service! I will never stay here again!

We were so happy with our stay here! Great Customer Service. Caring and Kind personnel. Great Veiws, Great room.
Only issues, the after 9pm no children in the pool policy was not enforced and we cut our hot tub trip short due to kids being in the pool at 10pm, & they were allowed to be so loud we couldn’t have a conversation, thanks irresponsible parents but there were cameras and the Management should have enforced… Also the Bed and the pillows were not comfy, we both woke up hurting both days…
With that said though, we have had some not so good rooms and some not so good experiences but,
we were happy with this Hotel and we will be back!

Huge rooms/​suites, unbelievable views of the Pacific, good deals to be had too! Was only there one night and would love to stay longer!

I found this place through a living social deal. So the price of 99/​night in the off season was great for what you get here. Which is a fantastic oceanfront room. My room was one of the“renovated” variety with its odd décor and dark color scheme, but the view makes up for all that. You do hear the neighbors a bit even though I was top floor. Good experience overall. Would come back.

This is a fairly big property, but it has a very home-​y, boutique type feel. The lobby feels like a relaxing space to just lounge. The concierge was the exact right combination of welcoming without being so peppy and overly-​familiar. There is a selection of board games and DVDs for checkout, and our room overlooked the lighted surf. Nobody goes to the Oregon coast to lie on the beach in a bikini; it’s all about holing up with a view of the ocean for a cozy romantic night, and that’s just what Surftides is set up for. The beds were SO comfortable, I slept straight through the night! The actual metal keys (rather than key cards) were a nice touch.
I only have a few criticisms: One is that even for an ocean view room, $ 90 seemed a little stiff for a weeknight in November. Two is common among many hotels: when they say «Queen» bed, you get a full; when they say «King» bed you get a Queen. Finally, the walls are actually pretty thin. We nearly had to pause our movie when someone nearby was taking a shower because we couldn’t hear it well.
It was still a clean, soothing room, and waking up to seagulls and waves is always wonderful :)

We originally stayed here in 2010 and the hotel was being renovated into a «boutique hotel.» Five years later it looks like the renovation stalled out. I love the location of the hotel, restaurant and staff. but when you check-​in to a hip lobby and then eat dinner in the very trendy decorated restaurant, going back to your 1980s Motel 6 style room is sort of frustrating.

Surftides is a very nice and clean hotel right on the beach. Balconies on all rooms to watch the beautiful ocean. I have liked it before and will continue to come to Surftides. I wouldn’t, however, recommend the restaurant. High priced and small portions. If you eat here order the bar food.

We had the best time! Mini babymoon after having a horrible pregnancy, this place was perfect, the view was wonderful, the bed so comfortable, room totally remodeled, only thing that would have made it better would be a jet tub in the room. Also it clearly says checkin at 4, we arrived at about 130 and just wanted to see if our room was available and it was so they let us in early. All in all loved it!

Terrible. And we paid for this upgraded room.
The room they put us in had a refrigerator with a bad compressor that kept waking me up. After being awakened by it twice and not able to fall asleep I had my husband unplug it. I was concerned I would be blamed for it leaking so I went to the desk instead of calling to reinforce my concerns and they could see I wasn’t trying to scam them or waste their time. I was assured the manager would call me.
I left my number.
When we returned later that day no one had called and water was indeed all over the floor. We cleaned it ourselves. My husband went to the front desk. He returned with a service man. It seems they had replaced the refrigerator. But didn’t plug it in. I was napping and as I had dozed off a loud knock on the door awoke me. Someone was there with another refrigerator. All I heard was. «after all that they don’t want it?» smh
Clearly this place has no communication.
We were in our room later that night and what did I hear? «Clunk!»
The compressor on the refrigerator.
We won’t be back.
Thanks for the call management.

We purchased an «updated» room for the Labor Day weekend… and I honestly think that whoever the room designer was about 6 years old. It.was.awful. Denim bedspread (literally denim… like jeans. WHO wants to sleep with jeans?) Terrible wall art… large letters across the whole room that read, «Salty says, «There’s a reason for every season!» (Seriously? Who is Salty and why does he matter when I’m trying to have a romantic weekend with my husband? Talk about a mood killer!) and a picture of a fish drawn on a piece of butcher paper, traced with yarn and mounted to a rough piece of plywood, then mounted to the wall with ugly metal brackets. The light shade was a huge wicker basket of some sort that hung so low that we couldn’t walk under it. The room was painted in some kitchy nautical theme that was just ridiculous. The T.V. didn’t work at all. There was dirt on the floor under the couch and bedside tables… and worst of all, there was a pubic hair stuck in one of the towels when we first got there! All in all, I was absolutely disgusted. We paid extra for this room because it was supposedly «updated». For $ 200, I expect MUCH better. Do yourself a favor and stay elsewhere.

The website makes this hotel look great. But it’s quite the opposite. Stayed one night and paid a fairly hefty price, and was given what I’d say was a motel type room. Walked in and noticed the smell right away. Smelled of old mildew or mold, ie moldy carpet smell that was never taken care of. But I walked by a few other rooms with their doors open and smelled the same thing. Must be common here. I left my balcony door open to air it out (first entered the room with the balcony door open as well… I’m guessing for similar reasons).
Went to take a shower, noticed it wasn’t draining. Turns out it just drained real slowly. Took maybe a 10 minute shower, then another 45 minutes or so for it to drain. We had to go so my mother forfeited her shower and was just going to take one at our next hotel.
Bed wasn’t too comfortable, but luckily I wore myself out the day before that I passed out when I got back to the hotel.
On the plus side, the fire pits (which were just gas fire pits btw), were a somewhat nice way to end the day at for a few minutes. Beach access was also nice to have it right there, though you do have to walk under the hotel in a sketchy looking area with some what looked like homeless guys hanging out there late at night.

We rented one of their updated ocean front, double queen rooms, I paid $ 199. The room was very moist and humid, the updates were not what I expected nor worth the cost. We woke to ants crawling on the counters where we left a few food items. The television did not work, we wanted to watch something while we all relaxed for the evening, when I called the front desk, they didn’t help me or try to solve the issue, we were missing a 2^nd remote that is supposed to help navigate the tv. Shower had no pressure and some worthless spray nozzle. The website is false advertisement. They try to be upscale but horribly failed. When I pay for a hotel I want what I pay! The only positive was the beach access. I told them about the ants all over and the television not working, they brushed me off.
I would not recommend this place to anyone.

While the prices may be a little higher than most on the Oregon Coast this place is very functional and clean. The balconies feel
very private almost like you have the beach to yourself. The hotel is right on the beach and without having to walk down a long set of stairs which is nice. It is nice having a restaurant right next door as well. Finally, the cookies in the lobby (afternoons) are delicious. We look forward to our next stay.

I tried checking in and realized I must have made a mistake and not completed my online reservation. The front desk staff was very friendly, setting up a new reservation and even honoring the rate I had booked the room at. We had a terrific view, with a balcony right on the water.
Downsides were that previous renters’ socks were laying on the floor and the room had a distinct odor that was bothersome when we didn’t have the balcony door open. The décor is dated but the bed was in fact quite comfortable. Standard bathroom. We appreciated the mini fridge. Worth noting is that you can get beers and snacks at a reasonable rate from the front desk.
I liked the pool, hot tub, and sauna. Steam room didn’t seem to work. But at the end of the day you’re here for the great beach access.

I loved the room! By far the best room I’ve stayed at. The room had nice hardwood floors and nice painted walls! The décor in the room and around the resort was very clever and nice! The staff was all so nice too! I will be back soon! The first of many stays for us!

Wonderfully enjoyable location to stay in Lincoln City.
It’s not over priced and the rooms are comfortable and all the rooms are ocean front. You can’t beat it! We always stay here

Not worth the money!!! We paid more for an updated room, which wasn’t updated or even nice at all. I mean I don’t need perfection but at almost $ 200 a night I would like clean!!’ From the bed, bedding, broken chairs, and dirty carpets, this place was gross. View was amazing but must have been just above the access since we could hear the drunkards until 4 am. Last but not least the pool was moldy and the chlorine was so strong it burned my eyes! Look elsewhere!!!

Loved it! We had a corner room and the view was fantastic. We were even able to do some whale watching from our room. It was close enough to the sports bar/​arcade that we walked down to watch the Seahawks game. There was easy beach access, and plenty of parking. They even light fire pits for you at dusk!
The room was clean and came with a kitchenette, stocked with pots and pans and utensils (which we didn’t expect,) a gas fire place and a nice comfortable king sized bed. We will be staying here again!

I paid $ 200+ for a one night stay at this dive. I would not ever recommend it to anyone. I inquired about a possible early check-​in and as the front desk clerk was trying to see of it was a possibility another front desk person scolded the front desk person in front of me for trying to help me. I wasn’t pressed for an early check-​in so I left and went and did some touristy things.
I returned and checked in and was given a piece of paper with a map and a circle of where my room was. Waiting for the elevator we were told in a sarcastic, juvenile manor to enjoy our stay followed by ridiculous laughing from the stoner dudes in housekeeping.
Arriving at the room there was an overwhelming waft of mildew and funeral home that greeted us. The room was disgusting. The carpet shredded in places, filthy chairs, the lid on the toilet on backwards, holes in the walls and furniture… You get the idea.
Upon opening the microwave we found old food inside. At that point we decided to at least mention the room condition to the front desk. We did so in a «it’s worth mentioning» manor and not a irate customer manner as at that point we figured the entire building was a run down mess and there was probably little that they could do.
Trying to make Lemonaide out of the Surftides lemons we decided to head to the beach. As we were walking to the beach we saw the housekeeping staff enter our room. Later we realized they tried to correct the awful room by coming in and turning the toilet tank top around and adding a toilet paper flower to the top. (They left the dirty food in the microwave — perhaps that’s their version of room service?)
Getting to the beach you walk through the gross, dirty, unwelcoming underbelly of the building. Once we arrived at the beach we were delighted by the view. This lasted minutes. Then we found a dead porcupine. Question 1: are porcupines beach going? 2: why would they let a dead porcupine sit on their beach right outside the entrance? 3: how long has it sat there? It was bad and full of maggots.
In closing, don’t stay there.

Amazing customer service! We’re planning a small wedding there and Michael along with all the other staff have been incredibly helpful and delightful. We had a late dinner at the restaurant on property and the food/​service was equally amazing. The room was clean and comfortable. If weather permits they BBQ in the courtyard on Saturdays I believe, and offer smore kits for purchase to cook in the fire pits. The view was perfect for a romantic weekend away. This is definitely our place for weekend getaways and anniversary trips.

L’hotel est tres laid exterieurement mais l’accueil est agreable, la plage et la côte sur laquelle est placée l’hotel.est superbe, la chambre a donc une tres belle vue, elle est vaste et confortsble avec un tres bon lit king size, une cafetiere, une salle de bain confortable
Le restau pour aller prendre le petit dej Mist est tres joli egalement avec des baies vitrees sur la mer
