Wonderful

The owner here is very friendly and more than accomodating. When we needed to check out a day early even after taking a shower after the room had been clean, she gave a complete refund. The room was exceptionally clean and the view beautiful. Would definitely stay here again!
Our room was clean and the bed fairly comfortable. The place is very dated and in need of an update. Not quite what I was expecting. Can walk or the beach which was nice.
If you want the best view of the ocean, you must book a room in the lowest building. Other buildings have a view of the water partially obstructed by other buildings. Still a great view—you can see the mountains on the other side of the peninsula—but not quite what is pictured.
This was a very clean hotel close to Homer. The property was a little out dated but still very quiet and clean and had wonderful views. Laundry was convenient to do as well and the staff was very nice
Jill and Mike provide guests with clean rooms, very comfortable beds, good coffee, and close to the Homer Spit. We were fortunate to have an incredible view from our room. Please note all the beautiful art in the room with artists I recognized.
We would highly recommend Ocean Shores!
Quite basic, close to where we needed to be early in the morning. Rather expensive for the time spent there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The unit was very clean and the staff very accommodating. The beds and pillows were very uncomfortable and old making sleep difficult.
On the positive side we left a piece of luggage in the room and they were super helpful in getting it shipped back to us.
We loved the ocean views from our balcony and the room amenities. Our room was bright and open and a delightful place to relax in between our comings and goings in Homer. Delightful!!
