We enjoyed our stay at this property! It was very clean and comfortable. The view was amazing and it's nice that every room has their own balcony with a view. You could also easily walk down to the beach! The only things that could have made our stay better was breakfast and blackout curtains.

We loved our stay at The Ocean Shores! The view from our room window was awesome and beautiful! the path to the beach was easy to navigate and the beach was pretty cool! The location is perfect: close to restaurants and the spit. we actually spent an entire afternoon just sitting on the balconey soaking up the sun and enjoying the scenery.

The room is spacious and I love how retro it is with decorations/microwave etc. The restaurant and coffee cart right there are amazing quality. Really the best feature is the beach trail down to Bishop’s Beach!

Property location right near the water with a great view of the ocean. The resort itself is dated and rooms were tired. The front desk owner was very nice and friendly and gave us a free upgrade to a room with a better view. There’s a bath to the beach from the property which is a pretty walk and fun to do. Drivable to all of Homer and things to see and do.

I felt the description was wrong. It appears that you would be on the beach. Only one of 4 buildings is on the beach. Most of the rooms had a good view of the beach and you could walk down to the beach on a path.

Stayed just one night but my partner and I really enjoyed the stay. Staff was really nice and we really appreciated being upgraded to a room closer to the beach view. The room was clean and cozy and the view from it was amazing. We only had a slight issue with not getting anything to play on the TV, seemed like a signal issue but nothing we stressed about. We look forward to staying here in the future.
