Our stay at Serenity by the Sea was wonderful. The house had everything we needed. My kids loved the walk to the beach, it is magical. The beach area is secluded and the views are amazing. If I were to travel to the Brookings area again, I would absolutely book this house.

We had an amazing time at this house. The views are so beautiful from the deck and the large windows in the house. The house was clean and nice. We will go back here in the future.

The view is absolutely incredible! The beach house is older, but comfortable. The beach is amazing, but a little tricky to get down to. It’s pretty much a private beach. Lots of sea stars and sea anemones at low tide. We even saw a little otter running across the beach a few times. There were some ants in the house, but did I mention the view? It is absolutely phenomenal! There are lots of great hikes in the area. Secret Beach is a must! Brookings is a great area to explore. This beach house is a great place to do it from. Nice private location with the most amazing view!

When you walk in you can see the gorgeous Pacific Ocean. The house was plenty big enough for all 9 of us. The kids and parents enjoyed the Ping Pong table. The private beach access was very helpful with running the extra energy out of the grandchildren. The rental manager was very informative and helpful. Very pleasant and peaceful stay, we hope to be back!

Amazing view from multiple rooms. It does have direct access to the beach but the last 12 feet looks washed out from the ocean, so there was a large muddy drop at the end of the long path to get down to the beach. There is a heavy musty smell especially in the basement room. It appears that there is a dehumidifier in the basement, but wasn’t on because it was “full”. Also, the home appears to be in the middle of a remodeling phase as half of the house appears nice and new, and the other half older a musty. Very clean otherwise. There is a nice leather sofa in the living room, and a smaller sofa that folds out to a bed if needed.

We had a wonderful time at this house. The big picture windows and the deck had fabulous views of the ocean! The house was clean and well kept. We did try to go down the path to the beach and almost made it. The path was clear and easy enough for us ( we are in our 60s) but the very last part had washed out and we couldn't get down the drop off. I'm sure the weather contributed to the washed out part. We'll try it again next time. Overall, it was a great place for us to stay while visiting the coast!

This property was so AWFUL that I will NEVER rent another home through any third-party property rental sites, etc again. I honestly cried when I got there - very late, as it happens so we had to stay the night since there was no place else available that I could reach, and sleeping in the cars was not an option. The photos are entirely misleading. Kudos to the photographer for making it look great, the reason I booked it in the first place. Of course, the photos can't give you a sense of the moldy musty smell. There were ants all over the kitchen. We had to put all our food in the fridge. The place has a strange layout but the worst was the downstairs "room." Terrible musty odor. No working outlets. The bathroom shower looked like you would drop through the floor. Terrible reno job - I'd bet money that the wiring isn't to code. Dirt and dead bugs in the cemented-over hole in the wall that they call a fireplace. Seriously unbelievably bad. I never write reviews because my stays are generally fine, although they were getting more and more disappointing I must admit, but this was the last straw. This is the only bad review I've ever written - and I'm writing it months after we stayed at this place. I just couldn't let it go when my parents suggested taking another family trip back to Brookings. I logged into my account to look for a place and I just thought "what am I doing? the last place was so horrible I don't trust any of the photos or the reviews anymore since there are positive reviews about this place." So, I booked alternative lodging instead. I think it's against their guidelines to name what kind. Anyway, so I thought I would actually take the time to write a review and warn somebody else... assuming you get to read it. I received a notice that my initial review violated their guidelines. They didn't tell me what so I have no idea what they find offensive. Maybe I'm not supposed to leave a bad review? So, I'm rewriting this to be as specific as possible and not use the name of any businesses, including their own. Anyway, I will say that the large back deck and views of the ocean are the only positives but they are not worth it. I would have left that night if I could have found other lodging that would have worked for my entire family.

We were excited to finally get to the house and upon entering the smell of mold or a musty odor was present. They had everything you’d need pretty much but beds and linens were terrible. The property manager was very helpful over the phone to help us get the heat on. If you are used to the finer things in life I’d say this one is not for you.

Great service. Nice and very willing to help. I had no issues with the house and it was perfect for what we needed and it gave us the chance to make family relationships stronger.

We had seniors and I honestly didn't know the one bedroom was downstairs...with the tiniest bathroom ever. The property is a little older and could do with some maintenance. The smell of mold was unsettling along lots of flies and spiders. But living room was fantastic. There's lots of little extras that make staying here exceptional.

Beautiful main level of home with breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean. Snuggle up by the fireplace while watching the sunset.

Our family met here as a central location from Montana, California and Nevada for an extended weekend getaway. The house location was great and the private hike to the beach was really special (but very difficult with physical limitations). We enjoyed our time here. The home has had several updates, but is an 80's era home on the coast, so keep this in mind when booking. The home had all the kitchen utensils we needed, but could use some new pans for cooking. Overall, we would use this property again when visiting.

The views were just amazing. However, the house is a bit old but it is well furnished. The only reason I took couple stars from the review was because (1) linens were a bit dirty, (2) microwave was not working, (3) I tried calling the manager on Saturday but did not get a response, (4) the trash cans outside were all full, so cleaning and dumping more stuff as required, took a bit of an effort…but otherwise, kids loved it…the beach in the backyard was very clean (it is a bit of a steep hike so do not recommend it for elderly).

This house was the perfect get away for my kids and grandkids. Amenities like ping pong, corn hole and even an arcade game kept everyone entertained and off their phones. More chess was played than there was screen time. The views are unmatched!

We had a nice time. Excellent views, quiet. The only problem were the flies. There were scores of them in the living room. One landed into my wine, and that was disappointing.

The property and furnishing were beautiful and comfortable. I would like privacy shades or heavier drapes on the upstairs bedrooms, but I slept well and completely enjoyed myself.

The view is amazing we had a great stay

The picture windows allow for a beautiful view, especially at sunset! The house was a perfect place to stay with our friends. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook some meals. We braved the path to the beach and played every morning on a basically private beach (we never saw another person). The kids loved the arcade game, corn hole & ping pong table. We set crab pots off the public dock at the port and got a few keepers. Lastly, I recommend eating at Zolas!

The view is amazing we had a great stay

Loved the location and the fact that the beach was pretty private. Sure the trail is kinda sketchy to get to the beach - I've been on worse and it's doable (maybe not for Seniors or folks with disabilities). Kids loved the room downstairs. Plenty do and see around the local area. Had a great time fishing with Brookings Fishing Charters. Only complaint (it's minor) would be the non-stick pans aren't that "Nonstick". I gave it 5 mainly because of the view and location.

We enjoyed the location of this property. The views were stunning. The house itself has been updated in some areas like the living room. The path down to the beach is not for the faint of heart. It’s in rough shape. The furniture is comfortable and really nice. We would consider returning if we were in the area again.

Our stay was great. The ocean views from the windows and deck were spectacular. The linens were clean. The house was equipped with all we needed. The only, sort of, complaint is that the cleaning was mediocre at best. Lots of areas all over the house could use a thorough cleaning. The BBQ was filthy. It wasn't so bad it ruined our trip in any way. It just wasn't as clean as even my own house. Overall, it was a great stay. We will definitely go with Vrbo again for a vacation rental.

The house is set on a cliff overlooking the beautiful Oregon coast and it does not ever disappoint! the house is a bit older and you can tell that the owners are making upgrades as time allows. I can not wait to go back in a year or so and see what updates have been made while we were away. Brookings is a wonderful town with really friendly people and the restaurants on offer were all great. Thank you Bobbie (property manager) for your responsive communication with us on our adventures getting to the property (surprise landslide on 101 on the California side made us a day late arriving). It was comforting to know that she could be reached with any questions or concerns we may have encountered and was always available and helpful.

We enjoyed our stay very much!
