Sea Star Spa – Hot Tub, Walk to Beach

Tucked beneath a canopy of rhododendrons and whispering evergreens, Sea Star Spa offers a dreamy escape just steps from the surf. Less than a block from the ocean’s edge, this lovingly restored 1960s architectural gem invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and savor the rhythm of coastal life.

Spend your days beachcombing for hidden glass floats, wandering windswept shores, and watching waves dance in the sunlight. As evening falls, the sky ignites in brilliant hues of orange and pink—best enjoyed from the privacy of your own deck or while soaking in the bubbling hot tub under a blanket of stars.

Inside, the home’s original tongue-and-groove ceilings, peaked roofline, and vintage fireplace create a warm, nostalgic ambiance. The 750-square-foot layout is thoughtfully designed for couples, small families, or close friends seeking a peaceful retreat.

Comfortable peaceful home for a recharge

Between work challenges, extended family requirements and the general business of the holiday season the husband and I hadn't had time to do much more than exchange honey do lists for the last few months. We decided to seize a weekend when we could and wanted somewhere off the beaten path for us. The Sea Star couldn't have been more perfect. Comfortable, well equipped, quiet. Florence was charming and friendly. Thanks so much for restoring our sanity. . Don't stay here if you want to be in the heart of the nightlife. Do stay here if you want to sit quietly in comfortable chairs next to your partner enjoying the evening with an electric fire, a bottle of wine ending it all with a private soak to ease old muscles and joints. So needed. Thank you! joints and muscles t couple

Lovely Getaway

Sea Star Spa provided the perfect space for a 2-week vacation, one week solo and one week with my partner. The space is well-organized and very user-friendly. It's private, yet close to other homes so one doesn't feel completely isolated. It's a short walk to the beautiful 2-mile beach. And it's one of the cleanest VRBOs I've ever stayed in. Highly recommend!

Cozy Beach House

Nice place that we will look to rent in the future. Location was great with walking distance to the beach and the Market Deli (great place to get lunch). The only thing that you might have to watch out is the driveway entrance as it is on to curve of a Yield right turn lane. Best to back in if you can, to make getting out easier.

Always a restful stay

I have been coming here with friends and family for close to a decade. The space is always so clean and well appointed. The easy walk to the beach and the stocked kitchen make it my favorite coastal getaway. I recommend it to all of my friends and we have celebrated birthdays, holidays and enjoyed the peaceful quiet surroundings and hot tub. Its the best!

We had a wonderful time at this cozy home. No control over the temperature of the hot tub or the jets, but we were able to enjoy it enough. Would definitely stay again. The walk to the beach was short and beautiful.

Quiet and Restful

Upon arrival the home looked and smelled fresh and clean. The neighborhood is quiet and the setting in trees is beautiful. It's a short walk to the beach and close to town. The home is well appointed with meal-cooking cookware and seasonings. After a dinner of Crab Louie on the front deck we enjoyed relaxing in the spa, then melted into a very comfortable bed. Our stay was far too short and we highly recommend the Sea Star Spa for couples and/or small families.

The perfect place for an extended vacation.

For those seniors that don’t have RVs this is the perfect solution to vacationing longer than a week. We stayed for 29 days. This place was perfect about 700 sq ft and everything we needed to have a home away from home and enjoy Florence and the Oregon Coast fully with crabbing clamming and fishing. . Thank you we’ll be back

Great location

My husband and our 2 children, ages 4 and 8, stayed here for several nights. My kids slept on the hide-a-way bed in the couch. It is a small place but perfect for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked with necessary utensils, dishes, cookware and appliances. The hot tub was fantastic! The location was perfect for us as it was a 2 minute walk, with kids, to beach access. Everything else was a short drive away. Check in and out was easy. Only a few reasonable request of chores at check out. We would definitely stay here again.
