About this house rental
Sand Castle 2 Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' When you plan your next trip to the Oregon Coast, consider amplifying the experience by actually living on the beach! With its quaint charm, beach-y decor, and modern amenities, this Rockaway Beach vacation rental will offer you amazing views of the water, easy access to the sand, and enough distance to have some peace and quiet - but not miss out on local activities. Only two miles north of Rockaway Beach proper, Sand Castle Villa is one of the many locations that offer some of the best views of the Oregon Coast you'll get while driving - or walking, or biking, or whatever! Rockaway Beach is an exemplary Oregon Coast town, with cute eateries and trinket shops, plus beautiful parks and long stretches of sand for ultimate beach time. This section of Sand Castle Villa is a three bedroom, three bathroom apartment; the upper floor includes the living space and a bedroom/bathroom combo. Downstairs are the two other bedrooms and bathrooms. The soft white walls catch most of the natural light, creating a sense of airiness; the decor is ocean themed, with soft pink and purple tones that create a quirky, homey feel. Downstairs is a primary bedroom with a king-sized bed and access to an outdoor patio, and a second bedroom with a twin-over-double bunk. Upstairs, the second primary suite offers plenty of space to spread out, a mounted TV, and a king-sized bed with a private bathroom. The gem of this condo? The wall of full windows looking over the beach. There's also a patio for you to go sit out on - any time of day, with someone or alone, the beach is right there for your admiration. The dining alcove is perfect for family style meals or an early breakfast alone. Enjoy the cozy sitting area with a couch and a big reading chair done in soft pinks. There's flat screen TV with cable mounted into the wall, and Wi-Fi for your convenience. Enjoy a fully-stocked kitchen with plenty of counter space - including an eating island with bar stools - white appliances, including a dishwasher, and a double oven for extra cooking space. You even have a food mixer for baking bread, cakes, or cookies on stormy days while your friends and family lounge around you. You can cook and store your vacation's worth of food without any difficulty! There's also a washer/dryer for those mid-vacation loads of laundry. This duplex has a garage and plenty of on-street parking. The beach is there for your enjoyment, either from your deck or patio, from the weather-beaten benches, or from the road as you drive to your next destination. Poke around tide pools or fly kites; take long sandy runs or find a good spot on a hill for whale watching. Take a little road trip up to the Manhattan Beach State Park, or head to Rockaway Beach for bike and paddle boat rentals. Dogs -welcome for a small nightly fee - will love the great outdoors! The Sand Castle Villa's purpose is to keep you comfortable during your Oregon Coast vacation - you enjoy yourself, bond with your family, laugh with your friends, and we'll take care of the rest!

This how is perfect if you want to be steps from the beach. You do have to go down some steps but it’s literally in the front yard. The view was perfect and the house was spacious. We had some issues with the heat and fireplace and tried contacting Vacasa multiple ways with partial responses which was a bummer. Not sure we’ll go through Vacasa again for that reason but undecided as we did really like the location of the house.

Let me tell you, when they say oceanfront, they mean it! It couldn’t get any closer!! It’s almost mesmerizing how beautifully close the surf is. So sitting in the hot tub during the day is breathtaking. And at night, the sound and the dark sky that seems to show off each and every star, it’s magical. I live West Coast local, so I have been to the beach hundreds of times, and can easily say this is the closest I have ever stayed, outside of Hawaii. I took my 24 year old daughter for the weekend, along with both of our small dogs, just to unwind and relax. She planted herself in that window lounge area and stayed there accept for a quick run to town, or when we were sitting at the table playing a game. I could talk about it’s beauty forever. I will absolutely be back!!

Right on the sand, beautiful sunsets, perfect window seat. Not much more you could ask for.

The views from the second level are unbeatable. We watched from the kitchen table and corner nook as a whale spouted multiple times, a boogie boarder braved the cold water, and bald eagles flew by over the water. There are even binoculars next to the window. The beds were all very comfortable, the path to the beach from the back patio was short, and the view from the patio hot tub was unbelievable. There is nothing quite like watching the sunset over the Pacific Ocean from a hot tub. The home is also walking distance to a few restaurants and gift shops etc. I can't think of a better place to stay in Rockaway Beach for the price with 3 full bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen has tons of counter space and two full ovens for Thanksgiving dinners or Christmas turkeys. We are hoping to plan another trip and rent the other side of the duplex with the In Laws so we can have a big family get together in the whole home.

Nice property, but the heaters need attention and the entry pad didn't work.

We were mesmerized by the view. The decor was bright and cheerful, and the layout of the house was comfortable. We knew it was a pet friendly home, but were admittedly surprised by the amount of hair still left on all the furniture. The house could use a much needed deep clean. We did find the listing slightly misleading with the images of the hot tub, as there was no hot tub. Because of the slightly misleading marketing and the cleanliness of the house I feel it was overpriced with all the additional fees.
Over all it was a nice getaway that we used to accomplish a couple big work projects that required deep concentration with no distractions.

Rhis home is right on the beach. It is a older duplex but it was wonderful. We watched the ocean from our windows and listened to waves at night for a peaceful sleep. Our pups would barely let us drink our coffee before they wanted to be running free in the beach! It was very affordable also. We will go back!

The house is well stocked, spacious, excellent view and a dozen steps away from the sandy beach. We stayed for a week and liked the place. Love to stay here again someday.Has good internet connection, that stayed on. Owners left a manual with many details, check-in/out instructions and near by attractions. That was nice. One opportunity for improvement - The manual needs more detailed instructions on which remote control to use for what (perhaps with photos) on how to operate the TV and DVD player. We could not make them work. :).

The view is unbeatable and you can't get better beach access. But the place was dirty with dog hair on he couch and comforter, food crumbs on the kitchen table and trash on the floor. We visited in January 2021, during the covid-19 pandemic expecting cleanliness. It wasn't even clean for normal standards.

This vacation home is absolutely perfect. Very close to the beach. Very roomy. I love the fact that each room had its own thermostat. I would definitely rent this home again and possibly the other side as well

Beautiful ocean views.
Loved this kitchen. It had so many small appliances and dishes to use. The beach view from the dining room and living room are breathtaking! Every bedroom has its own bathroom and shower. The washer and dryer on the main floor is wonderful! Beds were great. New Years morning at 2:00 am we lost power for a few hours from the wind and rain storm but it was while we were sleeping so no problem. Would love to go back.

Sandcastle in Rockaway Beach vaca rental
There was no broom, We didnt know it was a townhouse style. We thought we were getting the entire house. The shower door downstairs was broken. Weird crazy rules about animals. The house stunk. The best thing about the house was the view from the dining room. The dryer was very slow. Would not recommend. We were disappointed. Also the vacuum did not suck anything up. Please updated your amenities.

Not so good
We thought we were getting a house but ended up we were in a townhouse style with people right next door to you. The doors are literally right next to each other. You have NO privacy in front or in back. There is a non working vacuum, and no broom. It literally stinks like they dont air it out. If you dont care about privacy and want a great view this is it. If you want it to have everything so you dont have to worry about much get something different.

Fairly well maintained, and well stocked with items needed in the kitchen. Great view of the ocean. Great customer service. The thermostat in the bathroom did not work which was a minor inconvenience.
