Embarcadero Resort Hotel & Marina

The Promenade essay

What it feels like to stay here

Embarcadero Resort Hotel & Marina is tucked away at the end of Newport's Historic Bayfront on the central Oregon Coast. Balconies here look out over a working harbor on Yaquina Bay, where fishing boats ease in with the morning tide and crab pots stack high along the docks beneath the arching Yaquina Bay Bridge. Every room has a private balcony overlooking the bay, and each unit is individually owned, so its décor and coastal character differ from the next one down the walkway. The resort has drawn travelers to this stretch of coast for more than 50 years. Days are easy to fill without leaving the property: an indoor heated salt water pool and hot tub run year-round, an outdoor spa waits after a day of hiking or tidepooling, and onsite saunas handle the rest. A fitness center keeps a routine intact, and the outdoor BBQ area turns the catch of the day into dinner. Boaters can rent a slip in the private 233-slip marina just steps from the door. Non-boaters can still drop a line, since the private crab dock offers crab boat and crab pot rentals, with onsite crab boiling stations for guest use. Newport itself adds the Oregon Coast Aquarium, the cliffs of Yaquina Head Outstanding Natural Area, and sunsets under the bridge. Whale watching, tide pools, and fresh seafood round out the surrounding coastal experience. Reserving on the resort's own site is how you land in one of these owner-held, bay-facing units with the marina and crab dock attached to the stay. The property also posts its own packages, including a Crabbing Adventure Package built around one of Newport's favorite pastimes.
