Situated on a hill just a few blocks south of Nye Beach, this home is great for a beach-loving family or friend group. The historic bayfront area is less than three-quarters of a mile away, and beach access is about two short blocks to the west, making this home ideal for visitors who hope to explore the city on foot.
The interior of this charming single-level home is full of character. Intriguing artwork adorns the walls, while large windows provide lovely views of the ocean, the city, and the surrounding greenery.

The spacious, well-appointed kitchen is perfectly suited for preparing everything from a home-cooked meal to a quick picnic lunch for the beach. In addition to the standard appliances, the kitchen includes fun extras such as a waffle iron, a coffee grinder, and a French press. There's even a dishwasher for easy post-meal cleanup.
Enjoy your meal at the six-person breakfast table, or take it outside to the picnic table on the backyard patio. There's also a gas grill out here if anyone feels the urge to barbecue.
A small sunroom connected to the patio provides additional space to spread out and spend time. Take advantage of the assorted games for a family activity, or settle in and spend a few quiet minutes reading.

We loved the central location, close to Nye Beach and Dutch Bros! Both were in walking distance EXCEPT that the house is at the top of a steep hill and most of us were too old to safely descend down the hill or to handle the climb back up. ;>} So we drove, and chose to get our walks in down on the beach, no big deal. We're really looking forward to returning the next time we stay in Newport. It's a charmingly renovated home with a FUN-ky vibe that resonated with all four generations that stayed in the home (and the hot tub was a huge bonus for the hot tub lovers). If you stay here, check out the adorable built-in drawer/step stool in the back bathroom that can be pulled out for little people to stand on so they can reach the sink. Loved it!
I would say there were some basic items that could be improved. The home didn't have any plastic wrap/aluminum foil or any storage containers for left overs. We stayed 3 nights and ate most meal in, so this was a miss for us. The pans were ok, we used the cast iron ones mainly and it worked cause I'm familiar with it. This house could use a new can opener as the current one does not work. The floors could use a good mopping. The dishwasher could be replaced. We ran it and none of the dishes got clean so we used it as a drying rack and hand washed all of our dishes. Bonus would have been a beach blankets.
The house was kind of split up with a bedroom with a Murphy bed in it that was great for keeping an eye on our kids, but might not be what everyone is looking for. The road is a little hidden up to the house, but once you find it it's no problem.
The hot tub
A very quiet location with a good view, nice amenities, a great hot tub, and retro furnishings. The property appears to have been built in the mid-20th century, but has been upgraded in many ways while maintaining its original character. The property is somewhat secluded/hidden, so we recommend viewing it on Google Earth so you can more easily arrive at the correct location.
The hot tub was wonderful and having 2 full bathrooms was great, too.
