Blue Starfish by AvantStay | Ocean Views & Direct Cannon Beach Access

*Please note this home is available for 30+ day stays only.*

Welcome to Blue Starfish, an AvantStay home!

Treat yourself to coastal luxury at an exceptional lower-level, 2-bedroom oceanfront rental just south of iconic Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach, where incredible ocean and Haystack views steal the show.

At this oceanfront rental, you’ll be a mile from Cannon Beach's quaint downtown (National Geographic calls it "the perfect beach town") and a 10 minute stroll to Sea Level Bakery and Coffee, Fresh Foods Market, and Mo’s famous clam chowder.

With its quiet location near Tolovana Beach State Park and sleeping space for 4-5 guests, this home-away-from-home is perfect for couples or small families looking to soak in the bounty and beauty of the Oregon Coast. A separate entrance ensures complete privacy, and with the owners close by, you'll have the advantage of getting insider tips from longtime residents on how to make the most of your stay.

Blue Starfish's spectacular ocean views may get all the attention, but the home's interiors are equally stunning. You’ll be greeted by an open layout and cozy contemporary style with high-end furnishings and warm wood floors. Modern, newly installed amenities include stainless steel kitchen appliances and a gas fireplace.

This home is stocked with absolutely everything you need to enjoy your vacation, from fresh, deluxe linens, to kitchen cookware and dishes, all the way to a dog washing station, dog bowls, and a welcome treat for your four-legged friend.

Bedroom #1:
Sleep soundly in the comfort of a king-size bed wrapped in crisp white linens. A wall-mounted flat-screen TV has a DVD player for movies in bed. Enjoy the privacy of an en suite bath with a shower/tub combo and shuttered windows.

Bedroom #2:
Wake up to a view that will start your day off serenely. This peaceful bedroom includes a plush king-size bed, a wall-mounted flat-screen TV w/DVD player, and a sliding glass door framing Haystack Rock. Across the hall is a second full bath with a shower/tub combo and a stackable washer/dryer.

Living Spaces:
Watch the waves crash from an Adirondack chair on the porch or from the oversized sectional sofa in the living room. With a 55” flat screen TV and Roku streaming player above a gas fireplace, you’ll love cuddling up for movie night. Built-in twin-over-twin bunk beds in the living room are perfect for a mid-afternoon nap or watching the moonlight reflect off Haystack Rock at night.

Kitchen & Dining:
Meal prep is a treat in the fully equipped kitchen featuring beautiful granite countertops, new stainless steel appliances, and a stellar ocean view. Enjoy your meals at the 5-person dining table.

Explore Cannon Beach:
Come and find out why National Geographic calls Cannon Beach one of the 21 best beaches in the world! Take in stunning shoreline views from hiking trails through old-growth forests at nearby Ecola State Park, go on a tidepool adventure, or spend the day golfing, fishing, or even whale watching during peak season.

Amazing Oasis at Cannon Beach!

We had such a lovely time at this property. The location, the house - everything was amazing. The kitchen was very well stocked with whatever we needed. The beds were extremely comfortable. We loved watching sunset and having beach fires in front of the house. Can't wait to come back!

Great Stay

We really enjoyed this property. It is right on the beach and we loved being able to go for walks every day. Just a heads up that it is the bottom floor unit and you have other folks on top. The location is great by Mo's and about 25-30 minute walk to downtown Cannon Beach. Very clean property with great check in and access to the property. Great stay!

Perfect location Comfy furnishings

The perfect place to stay in Cannon Beach, right on the beach close to Haystack and town. The cozily furnished rooms offered windows that looked directly onto Haystack and the Pacific. We felt like we were living on the beach. Blue Starfish was our comfy home base. We're hoping to go back. soon.

Amazing weekend

Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived. Everything we could have possibly wanted was included in the kitchen. We love cooking and it was great! And sitting on the deck or in the living room, the view was amazing of the ocean and Haystack Rock! And did I mention the beds and linens provided the best night's sleep I have had in a very long time!

Wonderful location

We loved the location with a beautiful sweeping view of Haystack Rock and surrounding beach. It was literally a 1-minute walk to get down to the beach. The unit was very comfortable we were glad for the opportunity to have our pup with us. The only issue we had was that we were given the incorrect PIN code and it took us about 1/2 hour to get into the unit.

Great house at the best location on Cannon Beach

This is a great house that was exactly as advertised and photographed. It also had the best equipped kitchen of any house we have rented to date. You could make Christmas dinner here. Beds are comfy and linens are nice. The location is fabulous - the pictures of the views do not do it justice. We rode our bikes down to Hug Beach every morning at low tide and I think that was my favorite part - I recommend renting beach cruisers from Prom in Seaside for your whole stay. We will likely return to this house!

The Fresh Foods market was an easy walk from the house and had everything you need to do your own cooking. The house is so comfortable and well maintained and the view is priceless!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was lovely, comfortable and well-appointed. It’s basically on the beach with, as you can imagine, a spectacular view! The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Owners are thoughtful: very friendly if you happen to run into them, but also very respectful of your privacy. Starfish Vacation Rentals is fantastic to work with: easy, helpful and accommodating. We rent at Cannon Beach a few times a year, and this is our favorite. And, Buddy says, “thank you for the dog biscuits!”.

Property was dirty

The property has a wonderful location and appears popular but we found it very dirty. Housekeeping did a very poor job of cleaning the unit. Bathroom feminine garbage was left behind, bed linens were soiled, toilet had not been cleaned, couch cushions had not been wiped down and had white residue. Glass had dog nose smudges throughout from previous occupant. The fire alarm battery needed to be replaced and chirped. The date on the battery read 10/16 so was almost three years old..

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fun time. It was very windy until the last day we left. We did enjoy being on the beach, shopping so close by, good food too. There was a lot of storage but there was to much the owners used. The closets were ful. The one in the onsuit had 2 12 inch poles to hang clothes one fell down,And the shelves had stuff on them. In the bath so very small the shelves were cute but with Nick nacks. The hall closet again owner had so much in it, you had no place to put any thing. The beds were wonderful! The other closet in bed room #2 Was cute but again the owner had left little room IN closet. Chairs, card table, fan, bedding,ect. The door on the right of closet keep coming off the track. In both bed rooms we had to dress out of our suit cases. Need to put a dresser in the closet. The other room has no room for a dresser, the shelves were of no use.
