We will stay here again.

Cute, very clean and super comfortable beds. Our room was spacious and decorated nicely. Lots of natural light with windows that open to let a cool breeze in. The landscaping is well taken care of and looks very nice.

Comfy Stay in Bandon

The room was very clean and comfortable. Door access was a little difficult at first but eventually worked. The wifi would cutout at times but always came back up which was fine with us as we were just catching up on news and email. Its a 5 minute drive to the local beaches and 2 minutes to Old Town Bandon. We would recommend.

Leslie is the BEST❣️

I love the smell of the air and how you can sometimes if you’re lucky taste the salt on your lips. It’s a beautiful place to be and it was a great value for such a nice place. The beds were so squishy and perfect I loved it.

Don't stay

Check in was easy but that was it. The drain was slow to drain and with multiple reports and they still couldn't come fix it. The hidden cost after we booked was frustrating as the price doubled. We won't stay or recommend again.

Seaside getaway in Bandon Oregon

Very clean and beautiful decor!! Close to Old Downtown Bandon and tons of shopping. We unfortunately tripped the breaker when we plugged the heater in but Ashley from Vacasa was quick to contact their local rep and she came within 30 minutes to reset the breaker. She too was so kind as we both yelled, "yay' when the power came back on. I would stay here again, for sure. And you can't beat the customer service we received from everyone we encountered!! Thank you so much!!

Bandon surprise

Property was as advertised. Grocery store across the street. Comfortable beds. Street noise as motel is located next to major highway. By late evening the street noise subsides and starts again about 6 AM. Close to shopping, horseback riding stables, beach. Check out the Historical Musuem if you stay here.

Nice room for the value

Room was clean. Remodeled only couple issues, had trouble opening the combo lock door but local support fixed it quickly. And road noise but that was predictable. Slept well.

Horrible stay

The toilet was possibly clogged before we got there and no plunger there was no wifi access at all. Beds were not very comfortable. All around will not stay there ever again

Disliked: Cleanliness
The comforter on our bed was bloody, contacted vacasa and they offered no solution other than we're sorry. While technically walkable to downtown it's 1 mile plus each way. Probably a no go for most families with smaller kids.The rates were reasonable, I would probably stay here again if other options weren't available but will definitely look elsewhere next time.

Modern but not so great bathroom.

Loved the decor of the room. Looks very modern. They really went with the whale theme. Beds were really comfy. Location was ok, not very walkable to the port, but within a few miles. It seems like they didn’t do the best job with the bathroom. Water pressure was not great and neither was the drainage. The towels were also quite small. Received away too many text messages about the rental prior, during and after my stay, including a couple that asked me to write this review (one came before I even got there). The door code could also have been a lot shorter, it was 10 digits!

Lamplighter Inn

Stayed 3 nights in room 117 of the Lamplighter Inn which is being run by vacasa. Found the property to be not as clean as I had expected. It is a remodeled property originally built in the 1970’s that has been remodeled however still needs some additional tlc. It has a lot of potential and is in a cute location. We found dog hair on our bedding, bathroom counter, floors, well as the overall cleanliness was not great. There were a lot of cobwebs, baseboards were dirty, towel hung in bathroom was soiled or had rust stains, as well as there was mold in the bathroom. There was a lot a damp smell in the room.
