I like having it on but not having the heat going. Our rooms have always been clean. Everyone at reception was nice and helpful. Check in was quick. All staff we came into contact were friendly. They have a restaurant and a coffee bar. We tried the coffee bar. We got iced lattes and the very large cinnamon roll. The coffee was pretty good. The cinnamon roll was very good. It was light and fluffy and the frosting was not too sweet. This has been the best place we've stayed in Ocean Shores, value wise. It is much cleaner and nicer than the low cost options. And it is less expensive than some of the other more premium places.

After making a quick call as instructed, I was able to retrieve my keys with instructions to return the next morning to complete the check in. The property is very nice and clean. The 2 bedroom suite was simply beautiful. The master bedroom was very spacious and all the amenities appeared to have been upgraded. The only thing that would have made the whole trip better would have been the weather. In typical Washington coast fashion the sun never came out. The temperature hovered around 60 which was not bad at all. However, in the Pacific Northwest you cannot count on the weather. It's like a box of chocolates!!!

Officially my favorite place to stay in Ocean Shores, hands down!…read more I booked Grey Gull because it was what was available on short notice. From the photos it looked outdated, but... Everything in Ocean Shores is. The price was right for a huge condo, so we went for it. The condo featured a big kitchen that I was able to cook a full dinner in, a large living room with a television, and a huge wrap around deck with views of the water. We also had a bathroom with a full tub and a bedroom with two queen beds. The hotel also has a hot tub and pool. The pool isn't huge but the kids had a great time. They have a movie library where you can check out movies for your room which was appreciated since we couldn't figure out the cable whatsoever. Minor complaints: the cable as mentioned, the beds weren't super comfy, and the kitchen equipment was not in the best condition. That said, we made it all work. We'll definitely return!

The better half and I just got off a huge work project and with about a hour of research, we…read moredecided to go to the Collins Inn after researching on Expedia. First time staying at an Inn/AirBNB type place. At first, it felt strange to let ourselves into this big beautiful house and to be the only ones there. But the better half grew up going to Inns and Bed and Breakfast type places and she was all in. NICE. That is the main word I would use to sum up The Collins. Especially with how well they took care of us for our anniversary. Every little detail was thought out and taken care of. The lady who was working there while we were there could not have been better. Super nice and attentive. WE LOVED THE COLLINS. I have been going to Ocean Shores my entire life but always stayed on the main hotel strip. The Collins is on the backside of Ocean Shores and very secluded from the tourist-y parts of the town. The house is gorgeous. A huge house with so many different things in it to do right across the street from the beach. The Collins has that beautiful, awesome Ocean Shores beach aesthetic while also being a very upscale, beautiful inn. My favorite thing about The Collins [aside from the hot tub] is just how well thought out everything is. From the all day snacks and breakfast. To every little touch they add. The people who created and run The Collins are obviously big fans of this type of Inn and really worked hard to create their ultimate image of it. And you can feel that in every little detail of The Collins experience. We also liked the french toast, Starbucks egg bites and all of the things they give you for breakfast here. The pastries were my favorite but we liked everything. We were also incredibly impressed at our room fridge having some nice juice and snacky type options. The better half and I loved this experience. We had such a nice time here. The hot tub, the wine, the chocolates, the kick ass shower, the nice breakfast and snacks. If you're looking for a great experience with your special person, it's hard to think of a better option than The Collins. I've stayed in pretty much every hotel in Ocean Shores and The Collins is definitely at the top of the list if you want a nice, beautiful, relaxing, memorable experience for you and your special person.

(e.g. no late checkouts and a charge if not out on time) Great weather for us too for beginning of April. The Jetty point is a great place to check out at low tide. Check out videos of the Sparlings (birds) back and forth with the waves. Thanks for the nice stay.

The atmosphere had a subtle coziness, but the Airbnb photos made it look much more updated, renovated, and inviting than it actually was. When we arrived, it was clear the chalet was dated. For the price per night, we expected more. Right away we noticed cobwebs on the walls and ceilings, heavy dust throughout, and even dust bunnies under the main bed. The fridge was also incredibly loud--sounding like a jet engine switching on and off all night. Other issues stood out: * Towels were limited, and the ones provided had hair in them. * The bathroom faucet's water pressure sprayed everywhere, forcing us to use our already-limited towels just to clean up. * The blinds couldn't be pulled open because of old, crusted bird droppings on the outside. We understand this is the ocean, but these clearly hadn't been cleaned in a long time. * The mattresses were by far the most uncomfortable I've ever slept on--making it difficult to get any real rest. What made things more frustrating was their very strict check-in and check-out policy, which they explained was due to their cleaning crew's schedule. Normally, that would make sense, but given the lack of cleanliness we experienced, it made their "no exceptions" stance confusing. That being said, I did appreciate a few things. They were upfront in the listing about the steps leading up to the second floor, and they weren't exaggerating--they really are steep, so it was good to know ahead of time. I also appreciated some of the amenities inside the chalet, which made parts of the stay more comfortable. The chalet itself has good bones and could be a great place with better upkeep--thorough cleaning, fresher linens, updated mattresses, and a little extra care inside and out. As it stands, though, it doesn't live up to its price point. I'd be hesitant to recommend this spot without those updates and at this point would suggest checking out other options in Ocean Shores first.

A much needed ocean therapy was calling my name and I drove west. Ended up in Ocean Shores. I left my town due to how crazy busy it would be with parades and a carnival, not knowing what's in store here. A pleasant surprise to see the streets lined with families. Anyway, got to shop, enjoy the festivities, and more importantly spend time walking the beach. Gorgeous day! Took a chance, walked in, asked if there were any vacancies, and they had the one. It was a king bedroom with a partial view... and I took it. It was an extremely spacious room, designed for wheelchair access. Even the shower had a ramp (pretty cool). Either way, the place was busy and packed like smoked clams in a tin can! The pool below me was busy as all get out, and people were coming and going... like me. Off for some shopping, parade activities, some local food and drinks, but more importantly... the Beach! Was able to sneak out and catch a beautiful sunset, as well. Gorgeous! There were some issues with the the faucets turning in the opposite direction for water temperature at the sinks, and it would be pretty nice if the Body Soap and Shampoo dispensers were labeled. They both looked identical... so who knows what I ended up using but at least it was clean! Other than that, some noisy tenants above me but whatever... hotel can't control kids jumping up and down and off the beds. At the end of a day, was able to chill after some much needed ocean therapy. All in all, a good experience for something so last minute. Thank you and as always, Enjoy & Happy Ocean Therapy!
