Life’s hectic, and syncing everyone’s schedules can feel like herding cats. When you finally land that precious stretch of free time, you want a spot that’s effortlessly cool—somewhere you can swap city noise for ocean waves, ditch crowds for wide-open sand, and still have good food and craft brews within walking distance. Manzanita hits every note. Tucked between the Pacific and a backdrop of evergreen hills, this laid-back village serves pure coastal calm without skimping on fun.
Homes That Fit the Whole Gang
Booking hotel rooms might work for a business trip, but a friends’ getaway deserves a real house. Our vacation rental services, Oregon coast style, give you exactly that. Think open-concept living rooms, giant sectional couches, and kitchens stocked for everything from charcuterie boards to late-night grilled-cheese runs. Many of our Manzanita homes sleep eight to twelve comfortably, so nobody gets stuck on a sad air mattress.
- Pro-tip: Look for listings with dual living spaces. Upstairs for game night, downstairs for the early-to-bed crowd. Harmony restored.
Cook, Feast, Repeat
Half the fun of traveling with friends is eating together. Manzanita’s local market has fresh seafood, produce, and Oregon craft beer. Grab supplies, head back, and let the group chefs flex their skills. Our rentals come with full kitchens—sharp knives, big pots, and enough plates for everyone. Fire up the deck grill for salmon or keep it simple with tacos. Either way, dinner costs less than restaurants and tastes better because you made it together.
Built-In Hangout Zones
After dinner, you need spots to lounge. Sunset to Sunset homes make that easy. Picture a big patio with Adirondack chairs and a gas firepit. Or a game room stocked with ping-pong, foosball, and Smart TVs for movie marathons. When you’re traveling with adults, separate spaces matter. Some folks stay up chatting under the stars; others curl up with a book next to the fireplace. Everyone’s happy.
Walkable Fun, Zero Hassle
No one wants to designate a driver on vacation. Our houses are an easy stroll to Manzanita’s coffee shops, tasting rooms, and boutiques. Start your day with espresso, wander the beach, then hit the wine bar before heading “home” for dinner. For bigger adventures, take a short drive to hike Neahkahnie Mountain, hunt for agates at Short Sands, or browse art galleries in Cannon Beach. You get plenty to do—yet you’re back in time for sunset cocktails on the deck.
Pets Welcome, Memories Multiplied
Leaving a dog behind is a buzz-kill, so many of our places are pup-friendly. Let the four-legged buddies romp on the sand while you snap photos. Heads-up: Manzanita allows off-leash play in certain zones before 9 a.m. and after 5 p.m. Most local patios welcome dogs too. Good vibes all around.
Local Service, No Corporate Robots
Here’s the kicker: booking with Sunset to Sunset means you’re working with real people who live here. We know which bakery still has warm pastries at noon and where to rent e-bikes for a breeze-filled ride. If something goes sideways—say, you can’t figure out the smart lock—we’re five minutes away, not in a call center three time zones off.
Wrap It Up and Book It
Manzanita gives you space to breathe, laugh, and make inside jokes that will last for years. And with our vacation rental services, Oregon coast visitors get roomy houses, stocked kitchens, and legit local support. So text the group chat, pick some dates, and let Sunset to Sunset Vacation Rentals handle the rest.
