Pacific Seawatch

The Promenade essay

What it feels like to stay here

Pacific Seawatch rises in the hills behind Pacific City, Oregon, where Open Nest Vacation Rentals bills it as the town's newest luxury community. From that elevated ground the marketing promise is a birds-eye view of the Oregon Coast. A single window can take in the ocean, rivers, estuaries, Haystack Rock, and Bob Straub State Wayside park at the same time. The community clubhouse sits just across the street from the vacation homes, close enough to visit in slippers before breakfast. Step inside and there is an ocean view fitness room with state-of-the-art equipment, an indoor salt water lap pool with an adjoining hot tub, and a gathering area furnished with soft seating around a large flat screen TV. Out back, a sundeck faces the beach on the horizon and a 9-hole putt putt course gives families something to argue about after dinner. Access is granted after a short 10-minute orientation at the start of the stay. The houses themselves lean on open living floorplans, large windows, and vaulted ceilings that keep the view in frame all week. Certain Seawatch luxury rentals add game rooms, saunas, private hot tubs, and pet-friendly arrangements for travelers arriving with a dog. Listed homes range from the three-bedroom, dog-friendly Nestucca Nest to Sunset Seawatch, which sleeps eight across three bedrooms.
