Thank you for the review. Glad the house felt inviting and cozy, that it was very clean, and that the view was outstanding. You were wonderful guests — you’re always welcome back. Hope to SEA you again soon!
The beach view was spectacular, beach access was perfect. The weather was amazing The hot tub on the deck was our favorite. There was no salt in the kitchen so we supplied the house with a few things to help the future guests.
We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was adequately stocked and very comfortable. It’s really nice being so close to the beach! We would love to stay here again.

Hi Michelle! It's wonderful that the house met your needs and provided everything you needed for a relaxing getaway. We'd be delighted to host you again in the future!
Photos and description are accurate - Pacific city gets better every year - house was immaculate and beautiful, access to the beach does not get any better - thank you! I will be booking this house again. I didn’t bring my dog this time, but it’s pet friendly which is a bonus.
The space and location were excellent. Very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and kitchen utensils. The TV and electric fireplace worked great as did the jacuzzi tub. The hot tub did not work during our stay, and that was communicated to us before our arrival. There was a large windblown sand dune obstructing the ocean view, however on our second morning someone came by and removed that sand so we had a view. Two issues. One bench and the dining table is too unstable to sit on. And the smoke detector kept going off sporadically so we had to remove the battery.

Thank you for the review. Glad the space, location, and cleanliness met your expectations and that the kitchen, TV, electric fireplace, and indoor jacuzzi tub worked well. Sorry the outdoor hot tub wasn’t available during your stay — we did notify guests in advance. Good to hear the sand was cleared so you could enjoy the view.
Sorry about the unstable bench and dining table and the smoke detector issues. We’ll have maintenance secure the seating and service the detector to prevent further false alarms. You were a great guest — you’re always welcome back!
This was exactly what we wanted to enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday. Everything we needed to cook and relax was there. Thank you!

Hi Kathryn! Thank you for your 5-star review. We are so glad you enjoyed your Thanksgiving getaway. We loved hosting you at beautiful Serendipity by the Sea and hope you will book with us again!
This property was very nice and enjoyable to stay at especially the ocean views. We all enjoyed the hot tub as it was raining most of the time. But we had a great time.

Hi Jean! Thank you for your 5-star review and choosing to spend your birthday weekend with us. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay - minus the rainy weather. We loved hosting you and hope you will book with us again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only negative was there was no shade in the guest bedroom and I had to put a blanket over the window for privacy. Otherwise it was good.

Hi Madelanne! Thank you for your 5-star review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We agree ... the views are hard to beat. We loved hosting you and hope you will return!
The property had everything we needed including a great location. We all had age appropriate activities for the youngest one at 10 yrs. old to the oldest at 79. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Hi Mary! Thank you for your 5-star review. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We loved hosting your family and hope you will return!
We had a lovely stay overall - just a couple items! The master bath toilet seems to be leaking? The bathroom smelled of sewer the entire stay so not sure if there’s a plumbing issue? Also the fan switch in master bath is no functional. We had about 7 rolls of toilet paper for 4 adults and 3 children for 4 days,and didn’t realize there wasn’t additional in home. Only one paper towel roll was supplied. No dishsoap either. Maybe include in the reservation email a blip -if staying more than 2 days bring additional toiletry items or what you’re willing to supply.

Thank you for the 4‑star review. Glad you had a lovely stay overall. I’m sorry about the master bath issues — we reported the possible toilet leak, sewer odor, and the fan switch to our maintenance team right away so they can inspect and repair them.
We appreciate the feedback and would welcome the chance to host you again.
The house was in the perfect location to be able to sit in the hot tub and watch the ocean. Unfortunately, I had to call the property management company to get the lock code for the hot tub because it was not provided in the instructions. The house was clean and tidy, but could use updating.

This property is out of this world. We have stayed at other places in Pacific City for much more and this place was luxurious and top notch. Check in was like coming home to visit relatives, the property was IMMACULATE, there are so many special touches and amenities. Right on the beach. White glove service, child and dog friendly. I can not wait to return!!

Hello Mike,
Thank you for taking your time to leave us this feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your time at Serendipity by the Sea and hope to host you again.
My family had a great spring break trip here. The house was well stocked with everything from kitchen supplies to beach chairs. The views were incredible and we spent so much time outside.
The only downfall here was the hot tub was out of order, the refrigerator was a bit dirty and there was no cleaning supplies for us to clean it and we think the master toilet was leaking.
Regardless of the minor inconveniences, it was perfect! I would definitely come back here and already trying to plan my next trip.
