Nice accommodations.

Upside: good commo with owners and prompt resolution to difficulties operating the TV. Great views and nice beach although lots of people on the beach. Nice and close to Lincoln City and Depo bay restaurants. Adequately stocked for cooking and nice that the cleaners leave spices and cooking oil incoming guests. Downside: Carpet was very dirty and needs to be replaced. The unit is immediately adjacent to an RV Park so dogs barking, and lots of people on the beach. I saw one review that said "very quiet location". That must be a review on a different house. The internet is slow during the day and in the evenings is down to 1-3 Mbps making it quite frustrating to watch a movie. My scanner showed 14 active connections on the router and we were only using 3 phones and one TV. So obviously the internet is shared among other units. Also the water heater must be shared as well as some times it would run out of hot water quickly and sometimes it wouldn't.

We booked this unit along with 2 others (one on the lower level and one next door) for a family reunion. The location in Bella Beach is perfect. The unit we were in (Whales Tale) has a stunning view of the ocean and is steps away from the sand. Our unit was in good shape for the most part. The kitchen was very well equipped and clean and the top floor bedroom was quite nice. The washer had a musty smell but front-loaders often do. The lower level needs a refresh. The bathroom is a bit musty and the carpet in both bedrooms is stained. The bedding also needs to be changed out. These are relatively minor issues as the unit was well-maintained for the most part and well-appointed. The check in process from the property management company was seamless. So overall I'd rank the top floor as 5 stars and the lower floor as 4 stars. We would definitely return again and hope that the lower level gets some updating.

We had a great stay at this property! Clean, and excellent communication!

We Love Depoe Bay, Bella Beach and Whale's Tale! Two of my siblings, their spouses and I enjoyed a week whale watching (spied some from the deck), shopping, cooking (well equipped kitchen), fishing, and just spending time together in this beautiful, well maintained home. The home was well stocked with necessities for an 8 day stay. We have been coming to Bella Beach for many years, and are already looking forward to next year!

We had a wonderful weekend at Whale Tale. Very clean, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything you would need. Note, the hot tub can accommodate two people at one time. If you have small children, I would bring a gate for the top of the stairs. They are located between the living room and kitchen. The view was priceless!

Nice place overall. My three observations are, washing machine is covered in mold which lowers the cleanliness rating for me as I’m not a fan of mold washed sheets and towels. Second, the kitchen supplies are weak. If you plan to cook much, you have limited tools, and those available are very low quality, some of the utensils are cheap dollar store grade plastic that melt when used. Lastly, the router is tucked away at the furthest end of the house in the garage leaving a weak single upstairs. I was constantly kicked from Teams/Zoom calls which was extremely frustrating.

Overall the place was great and comfortable! You cannot beat the location or the view. Quiet area as well with easy access to the beach. Good amount of space for 6 people comfortably. Biggest downside for us this time around was one of the bedrooms downstairs did not feel like it has been cleaned and there was hair all over the sheets so had to wash them right away. The upstairs bathroom also had hair all over the mat and in the shower so we had to clean those too. Upstairs space is beautiful and felt clean. Downstairs space felt like it could use a little love. Again, a great place overall. Management was very responsive when I did text. Kitchen has everything you really could need. The pictures show a leather couch but this was not there…there was a blue fabric couch which maybe was added for extra sleeping. Loved the balconies! Would come again!
