Extraordinary Depoe Bay Ocean Views From Ground-Level Condo!
Whaler’s Rest - Meredith Lodging
You may know that Depoe Bay is called the Whale Capital for its resident gray whales, who live year-round along this magnificent stretch of coast. Why not stay where you are most likely to catch a glimpse of these giants, as well as scores of seabirds and boats galore? Whaler’s Rest is a single-level, clifftop oceanfront condo with stellar ocean views and outdoor seating for enjoying ocean breezes and spectacular sunsets in Thundering Shores Executive Estates.
You can swivel the living room chairs inwards for gatherings around the TV, or turn them back to the windows for magnetic views of the sea, our relax in the spacious bay window that is also perfect for whale watching. A dining area and fully-equipped, updated kitchen with granite countertops give you the option to cook during your stay, or take the concrete walkway into town for seafood at Tidal Raves or chowder at Gracie’s Sea Hag. Whaler’s Rest is perfect for a romantic weekend or a vacation with another couple—both bedrooms have their own TVs and baths, so there’s plenty of space and privacy for up to four people. You can easily drive 20 minutes north to Lincoln City or 20 minutes south to Newport’s Bayfront, but there’s plenty of activity in Depoe Bay, with its scenic seawall, entertaining line of shops and its tiny harbor, where you can catch a whale-watching or fishing trip. Come enjoy a front-row seat to the thunder of surf and magic of the western sky in this well-equipped oceanfront condo!

The location and view could not have been more spectacular and made our stay totally worthwhile. However, the house is in need of some repair and updating (e.g. the closet doors were stuck and the nightstand was falling apart). If you're looking for view and location this is the place, but don't expect a high end interior space.

Wonderful relaxing stay. Home is well appointed with dramatic ocean views. Convenient drive to Lincoln City or Newport, or just hang out in quaint Depoe Bay! Well cared for property in very quiet small condo complex.

Hi John! We are so glad you had an enjoyable and comfortable stay with us, and Whaler's Rest met all of your needs! We loved hosting you, and hope you will book with us again for your next coastal getaway!
We enjoyed our first return to Depoe Bay since before the pandemic (last time was January 2020). This condo is just north of where we have usually stayed. It was set up nicely and we were able to enjoy the ocean views. Great spot!
The pictures provided do not provide justice to the view. Spectacular. Loved the bay window and rockers.

Hi Dana! We are so glad you had an enjoyable and comfortable stay with us. We loved hosting you at Whaler's Rest, and hope you will consider booking with Meredith Lodging again for your next coastal getaway!
A wonderful condo setup, fantastic views, great furnishings and amenities. Even say a couple of whales. The only downer was the pet stains in the master bedroom. The mood is so upbeat until you walk into that room to go to the bathroom. A cover rug would be a solution if funds are not available to replace the carpet. One issue that needs fixing is the pedestal sink in the guest bathroom - it moves around - wobbles. We would stay there again.

Hi Barb! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We appreciate your feedback and will share your comments with our local property team. We value your booking and hope to host you again!
We stayed for a week at this condo and mostly loved it. The whale watching was a nice surprise. We didn't know there were "resident whales" to observe.
Only frustrating part of the property was trying to find room in the closets and drawers to unpack. Lots and lots of extra blankets and pillows crammed everywhere. I'd seen another person commenting on this same thing. Kind of felt like we were staying at a relative's house rather than a vacation rental. And so many tchotchkes! Hard to find a spot on a table to put a drink or a book.
And thanks for the great binoculars, Aunt Betty :-)
Overall we'd stay here again.

11 days outstanding view
Condo was to small for 4 adults. Second bedroom closet was stuffed with blankets, pillows and a chest of drawers with only 2 drawers available. No room for a chair or second side table Had to leave my suitcase in the car. No coat closet as owner has hall closed stuffed with supplies. Six people would be difficult. The first night we arrived called to say we needed wine glasses, water glasses, as only 2 in left hand shelve , a squige to clean the view window and 2 more deck chairs as there were only 2. Was advised a ticket would be opened. Called back the next morning as no one had called back. Was advised ticket was open. By noon
still nothing, I called again and was advised that only the owner could authorize buying new glasses. So I went to goodwill and bought 4 wine glasses and 4 waterglasses. Let the others missing items go. Next day I found the missing items in the condo!! The really nice ladies who opened the ticket for me had no idea where things were and were not empowered to call the owner to help us out.!! Later that afternoon a man did arrive with 3 wine glasses from matainace. The unit was very clean, View was amazing. Unit needs to be less stuffed game table looks messy, chairs need to be renewed, Kitchen was well stocked and enjoyed the fireplace. Dinning table only had 4 chairs and 2 small benches. Great location!! Walked to boiler bay each day.
