How is it possible to say an adequate thank you for the awesome time you have made possible for us? Your friendliness, the gorgeous accommodations, the fantastic food!!! Wow! We are spoiled forever! The absolutely perfect stormy weather and addicting view were like frosting on the cake. But we shall always remember our stay here as an experience of exquisite hospitality. Thank you so much!

Warren & Bairbre

We had just the BEST stay here - the house is so beautiful and breakfast overlooking the sea was both delicious and awe inspiring. We'll be telling all our friends in the UK about Ona Beach - and the wonderful weather and people we found here. Warren & Bairbre, London, UK

Kevin & Carolyn

Seems that 40 plus years have simply melted away [Don's best buddy from the Navy, Kevin finally found him 40 years later!] as Carolyn and I visit you two from our home in Florida. The two of you are a wonderful team, great hosts and wonderful friends. Thanks for your hospitality, great ambiance, noteworthy breakfasts - the crab omelet is almost life changing ... yum, yum. Good to see you both. Come visit us in Orlando. Kevin & Carolyn

Cindy & Mark

We had a wonderful time at your B&B. The breakfast was awesome! We enjoyed watching the whales while we ate! Thank you for recommending Cafe Stephanie's & Local Ocean - we had great food at both! You two are wonderful hosts and we felt very comfortable here during our stay [their first B&B experience!]. Thanks so much! Cindy & Mark

The Perfect Guests

Recently experienced our second couple this year who slept on top of the covers! We can only guess why people do this. Folks, you are welcome to do anything you like as long as it is within our policies. But if you want to be the perfect guests, sleep between the sheets as intended. If you are concerned about bugs, please feel free to let us know and we will turn the bed down for a complete inspection to your full satisfaction. If you think you are doing us a favor, you're not. We still have to change the sheets for our next guests' peace of mind. Plus just lying on top of the sheets wrinkles them and renders them below our appearance standards. If you lie on top of the bed covers, you actually make more work for us as we have to then wash and press them.

But like I said, we welcome you no matter what!

Thanks for coming ...

Cynthia & Don

Lorraine & Joe

We couldn't have asked for a more wonderful stay! The relaxation and rejuvenation were phenomenal. We loved your home, your company, your food & wine and your vistas. This experience has made us want to return to Oregon [love to hear it!], especially here. If you ever decide to sell this property, Cynthia & Don, let us know! [It'll be our kids ... we're leaving here feet first!] With appreciation, Lorraine & Joe, Indianapolis, Indiana

Ocean Acidification Threatens Our Livelihood

This would be a very bleak place without fish ... please see:

Camilla & Tony

Thank you for putting so many wonderful details together for a perfect stay ... from the morning coffee to the wine cellar ... from the hot tub to the singing of the Jays ... yet in the midst of it all, we took the time to remember 9-11. It makes one appreciate the peace and tranquility others have sacrificed themselves to ensure! Camilla & Tony, Woodland, CA.

Lori & Erik

Don & Cynthia - Thank you so much for a wonderful & relaxing stay. The accommodations are awesome. The breakfasts truly amazing! The new flat screen T.V. is a real plus. It was a great getaway for our 9th anniversary. We hope to be back in the future. Enjoy the rest of your summer [Thank you! (Chanting for you)]

Sam & Lisa

From Sam & Lisa, newlyweds from Eugene:

We spent the last few days of our HONEYMOON at Ona Beach B&B. We can only hope to continue the warmth and vibrancy of this home into our own. Your breakfasts were perfectly prepared and conceived, and accompanied by such graciousness, we felt relaxed and completely at ease.

You are knowledgeable hosts and you offer unique amenities - we couldn't help but to explore Newport and try new adventures [they had a great time with the kayak! ].

We are thrilled to have spent three days here at Ona Beach B&B. Thank you so much!

We're Excited

We're excited we're establishing a presence in the Blogosphere! Our goal will be to provide helpful information to anyone seeking a romantic getaway - or relaxing recreation - at the Oregon coast. We also encourage anyone who has stayed with us to post your comments - hopefully helpful - or just let us know you arrived home safely (perhaps with one of our keys!).

I'm sure it'll be fun communicating with you all!

Don
