Fantastic and cozy home to snuggle up in on a rainy coastal weekend. Really great vibe of a place to stay in and loved the fireplace. Loved the toadstools in the backyard. Really appreciate Kim the opportunity to bring our fur baby as well.

This was our 2nd stay at Manzanita Bliss. 2023 for 4 weeks and 2024 for 6 weeks. The Oregon coast is a great place. This property is just perfect for us and our 2 pups. Short walk to beach. The house has all of the necessary items 1 would need. Kim is a fabulous hostess.

Great spot!
We loved staying at Manzanita Bliss! The host was responsive and check-in was uneventful. The house is in a very quiet neighborhood, about a 20 minute walk to town but just 2 short blocks to the beach. The house is really cute, the kitchen was fully equipped and great even with multiple cooks, the fireplace roars, and the master bedroom is dreamy! The bathroom options are good, too. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Exceptionally Nice Property
On of the nicest VRBO properties we've stayed in. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, pleasant outdoor spaces. Pet friendly is a real plus. It's an easy short walk to the beach along two lightly trafficked dead end streets. Communication with the host was easy and timely. Parking is a bit tight but adequate. It easily accommodated two mid size SUV's.

Amazing Manzanita mid-mod getaway
We absolutely loved our stay at Kim's property. We immediately felt at home and enjoyed hanging out inside and out in the beautifully manicured yard. The quick walk to a quieter part of the beach was just perfect for our pup as well. Will most definitely try and stay here again in the future. Thanks for the hospitality!

What a gem!
We loved staying at Manzanita Bliss! The house was very well cleaned and just lovely - lots of space, beautiful, large, and well-stocked kitchen, and many extra touches throughout the house to make you feel at home. The owner was incredibly responsive too. I inquired about fans in the house since the weather was unusually hot, and she responded very quickly and procured us fans so we were able to sleep comfortably. This place is amazing and I’m already booking for next year!

Our favorite rental ever!!
We’ve rented homes for two decades and this is the best we’ve stayed in. This home was very very well equipped. They thought of everything. It was very clean and there was plenty of space for our family of 5 to spread out, sleep, eat and relax. Master bed upstairs was very comfortable. Loved the decor throughout the house, we felt immediately at home. My kids loved exploring all the nooks and crannies of the home. Easy access to the beach. We wished we could stayed longer. Would stay here again!!

Charming home and responsive owner
The home is as charming if not more so than the pictures. This was one of the best stocked kitchens I've been in regarding dishware/utensils/bowls, etc., which made cooking delightful. The backyard is fenced in so it made life easy with our dog. As written in the notes, beware that there is a lot of light in the master bedroom upstairs; if you're sensitive, bring personal night shades. ): We arrived after 5 on Friday and Kim immediately responded to a text to resolve a minor issue. This was our favorite home in Manzanita in 3 visits; we'd definitely return.

The perfect place in Manzanita
We had a great experience at Kim's home in Manzanita. My wife commented that it was exceptionally welcoming and had everything one would need. The space itself is incredible and is perfect for sitting by the fire, watching a movie, reading, or playing games at the table. It has everything you need in the kitchen to construct amazing meals and on that note, the kitchen is really great and set up most conveniently. Everything from the towels to the sheets were clean and we felt pampered being in the house. The outdoor spaces are awesome and offers a ton of different places to hang out, read, etc. The master suite is super cool too with its own private deck. The beach is close by and it took us about 20 minutes to walk to town via the surf. We highly recommend Kim's property and will be hopefully staying again in the not too distant future.

This property was one of my favorite vacation rentals ever. It has a well-equipped kitchen, plenty of towels, and little nooks to spread out in. It's just a quick 5 minute walk from the beach and in a sleepy part of town. We loved it! It was also perfect for our little dog. The owners have recently fenced in the backyard, so you don't have to worry about your furry friends. We will definitely return!

Absolutely wonderful place to stay in Manzanita!
My wife and I, along with our dogs, have been coming to Manzanita for almost a decade; this has been our favorite rental we've experienced. While somewhat unassuming from the road, the interior is spacious and inviting. The main living area is an open floor plan, well-appointed with comfortable seating. There's a large converted gas fireplace that really adds to the coziness. The updated kitchen has a complete selection of plates, glassware, and utensils, along with small appliances. There are several skylights throughout that allow in plenty of natural light. The upstairs master has plenty of light with high ceilings and windows. The quality of the bed and mattress is always a point of concern for us. We tend to prefer a slightly firm mattress... sometimes other rentals will be overly soft, verging on "hammock-like" as you sink into them, but these were very comfortable. It should be noted that there's no shower or tub upstairs next to the master, only a vanity and toilet, but it wasn't an issue to use one of the two showers downstairs. It's immediately obvious that the owners take a lot of pride in the furnishings: chairs, end tables, lamps, etc. were all well-chosen. Our dogs enjoyed the eating and drinking bowls as well, and the backyard is fully fenced. Finally, we loved the holiday decorations the owners put up: a tree with lights and ornaments, a Christmas scene on the mantel and dining table. So beautiful! We will absolutely make it a point to return!

Great house!
We really enjoyed our stay. The house is adorable and the set-up is great. We loved the upstairs room and deck -- and the detached "cabin office" was perfect for a beach office (and the wifi was great)). Everything was very clean and there it was totally stocked with everything! The owner also left a binder with all sorts of information. The area to park the cars in the front is adequate but a bit small (not a criticism, just a comment if you have bigger cars, etc.). There are two bathrooms with just toilets and another with a shower. We didn't use the outside shower because it was cold out, but what a great idea! We hope to stay again someday to get use out of all the fun extras that we didn't get to try this time around.
