Blue Starfish by AvantStay | Ocean Views & Direct Cannon Beach Access

*Please note this home is available for 30+ day stays only.*

Welcome to Blue Starfish, an AvantStay home!

Treat yourself to coastal luxury at an exceptional 2-bedroom oceanfront rental just south of iconic Haystack Rock in Cannon Beach, where incredible ocean and Haystack views steal the show. The home's owners and upstairs residents have enjoyed this location for generations and are excited to share the lower level of their beloved beach home with guests.

At this oceanfront rental, you’ll be a mile from Cannon Beach's quaint downtown (National Geographic calls it "the perfect beach town") and a 10 minute stroll to Sea Level Bakery and Coffee, Fresh Foods Market, and Mo’s famous clam chowder.

With its quiet location near Tolovana Beach State Park and sleeping space for 4-5 guests, this home-away-from-home is perfect for couples or small families looking to soak in the bounty and beauty of the Oregon Coast. A separate entrance ensures complete privacy, and with the owners close by, you'll have the advantage of getting insider tips from longtime residents on how to make the most of your stay.

The Blue Starfish's spectacular ocean views may get all the attention, but the home's interiors are equally stunning. You’ll be greeted by an open layout and cozy contemporary style with high-end furnishings and warm wood floors. Modern, newly installed amenities include stainless steel kitchen appliances and a gas fireplace.

The owners have stocked this home with absolutely everything you need to enjoy your vacation, from fresh, deluxe linens, to kitchen cookware and dishes, all the way to a dog washing station, dog bowls, and a welcome treat for your four-legged friend.

Bedroom #1:
Sleep soundly in the comfort of a king-size bed wrapped in crisp white linens. A wall-mounted flat-screen TV has a DVD player for movies in bed. Enjoy the privacy of an en suite bath with a shower/tub combo and shuttered windows.

Bedroom #2:
Wake up to a view that will start your day off serenely. This peaceful bedroom includes a plush king-size bed, a wall-mounted flat-screen TV w/DVD player, and a sliding glass door framing Haystack Rock. Across the hall is a second full bath with a shower/tub combo and a stackable washer/dryer.

Living Spaces:
Watch the waves crash from an Adirondack chair on the porch or from the oversized sectional sofa in the living room. With a 55” flat screen TV and Roku streaming player above a gas fireplace, you’ll love cuddling up for movie night. Built-in twin-over-twin bunk beds in the living room are perfect for a mid-afternoon nap or watching the moonlight reflect off Haystack Rock at night.

Kitchen & Dining:
Meal prep is a treat in the fully equipped kitchen featuring beautiful granite countertops, new stainless steel appliances, and a stellar ocean view. Enjoy your meals at the 5-person dining table, or fire up the BBQ grill for alfresco dining.

Incredible location!
This property is all about location. It’s fabulous! The Avant staff were incredibly responsive and very accommodating. We stayed at the property for six weeks and very much enjoyed our stay! (This unit is on the bottom of a larger privately owned unit that sits behind and over this one. Something to note is that if there are occupants in the upstairs unit it can be very noisy.)

Great Stay!!
We stayed here from January to mid-March. While the weather was predictably hit and miss, the property was wonderful. Normally, i'm suspicious of any reviews that don't have any negatives, but in this case, there wasn't anything to complain about. The place was super clean, well stocked, and comfortable. The gas fireplace was a godsend. Maybe the only thing that could use a little love is the shower/batch situation - but even that was just fine. The washer and dryer came in really handy, and the kitchen is a "real" kitchen. We cooked a lot. The proximity to the beach and Haystack Rock were perfect. The property managers knew we were going to be there for 2+ months, and "overstocked" accordingly - They didn't have to do that. We'll likely be back. Thanks for everything!

A great time at Cannon Beach !
This was by far my most memorable and perfect stay at Cannon Beach. I’ve stayed at several other places in this was the best. Right on the beach and being able to look at the ocean was really great! The place itself was very comfortable, fully stocked with everything I needed for a month stay. The beds were very comfortable, the TVs were easy to stream all apps/services. neighborhood is quiet and the view spectacular. The fireplace in the living rooms was so nice. Brain from the management company was very helpful and had great communication. I’ll be returning for sure!

Perfect location Comfy furnishings
The perfect place to stay in Cannon Beach, right on the beach close to Haystack and town. The cozily furnished rooms offered windows that looked directly onto Haystack and the Pacific. We felt like we were living on the beach. Blue Starfish was our comfy home base. We're hoping to go back. soon.

Absolutely Breathtaking Views
The home is completely lovely. The kitchen is extremely well stocked, the beds are supremely comfortable, and the television in the living room provides excellent entertainment. Yet, all of the wonderful things in the house pale in comparison to the absolutely breathtaking views that surround you! All four of the guests in my party have been visiting Cannon Beach for decades, but we were still amazed at how all encompassing the views are from this property. We felt very fortunate to stay there.

The property was outstanding. And the view! Wow. The location is great - so close to downtown and also Seaside. The service of the rental property was top notch. The coffee maker didn’t work on our first morning and they brought one within a few hours. Can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful location but an average accommodation
I have traveled all over the world and have stayed at many 5 star resorts and accommodations. The location of this property is wonderful with great views of haystack rock, close to downtown as well as restaurants. The accommodation itself is not 5 star. At best it is 3.5. The bed, linens, and fireplace are quite good. The carpet needs replacing. The chair in the living room is dirty. There were only 4 cups and 4 bowls available but many plates. The bathtubs need upgrading. The owner is very kind and helpful. In order to rate this property a 5 star, the named upgrades need to be made.

Most excellent family adventure!
Spent a week with our kids and grandchildren. Such a perfect spot especially with a 4 month old. We were at the beach without having to schlep all of our things outside, the set up couldn’t have been more perfect. For us, there’s no point renting a home at the coast unless you can see the coast from the living room. Such a beautiful view of Haystack Rock, the week could not have been more divine!
