Lincoln City, Oregon
No. 225 at the Sea Gypsy is a funky retro-style condo that we call "Shrimp Daddy." This condo stands out amongst others in the building because it still holds true to the original 1970s Sea Gypsy charm. Like a fine wine, this condo has only gotten better with age.
It can sleep three on a groovy queen bed in the private back bedroom. There's also a comfortable sofa bed in the oceanfront living room that can sleep two more travelers.
Cooking in this vintage kitchen is a real blast from the past! It has a small fridge, stovetop, toaster, mini microwave, coffee pot with complimentary coffee and cupboards full of quality old school cookware.
Shrimp Daddy is packed with lots of fun treats including a flashback Atari game system, a record collection to go along with the record player that also has CD and MP3 plugin option.
If you're up for a far out time at the coast in a place where the ocean views and beach access simply cannot be beat, then this is the condo for you. Feel the funk!
We had wanted to get away for the weekend and fell in love with the way the room looked online. Looked exactly like the pictures and the vibe was AMAZING!!!
We really enjoyed our time. We don't get to the coast often and our usual place was not available so this was a nice discovery.
I forget I stayed At the sea gypsy before and wasn't impressed but must of booked it again cuz it was affordable and next time if I can't afford to stay somewhere else then I won't be traveling. Your unit was trash and old and broken. Carpet so gross and old. Broken electrical socket. Sofa bed is so uncomfortable unless u like really thin mattress so u can feel the metal rod in your back. U guys should burn the unit instead of selling trash to people. Charging cleaning fees when u don't even clean the unit. It's worse then staying in a motel 6. Never ever ever sea gypsy. Complete disgusting. Rather sleep in the car
The staff was fantastic and we appreciated the way she handled the smoker issue. But as far as the room, it was sub-par at best. I get the theme idea, but the furniture was shot! Except for the bed it was comfortable. The pans need to be trashed, there was 1 usable. Front right burner didn't work, fridge/ freezer needs defrosted. The cupboard door kept falling off the runner. Carpet needs cleaned if not replaced. The back bathroom rubber baseboard was pealed off from the wall. Just a lot of little things that would make it a lot nicer. Housekeeping needs to move things and vacuum once in a while and dusting would be nice too. My love of hearing and seeing the ocean was met and enjoyed very much and for that I thank you!
I was very disappointed in how this place looked. The carpet was very badly stained, the bed Looked to be not made, the bedspread was kinda thrown on the bed, the baseboard was falling off in the bathroom off bedroom. Refrigerator has ice in the back of it & freezer was caked in ice. The decor was very cute. I appreciate that I was able to check in early and the view was amazing. I took pictures of the carpet as I did not want to be blamed for the stains.
I absolutely loved this unit. And the view was amazing. No complaints here.
I love the cute decor and the location can't be beat. That being said, I would not stay in this unit again. The carpet is dirty and stained, there is stuffing and foam coming out of the chair and the beds were SO uncomfortable. The lamp was broken and coming off the lamp stand. When we arrived the condo smelled like cooked food, it could have at least been aired out? My overall impression was that it was dirty and the carpet grossed me out. We met some others who were staying in 104 and their condo was 10x better than this one.
Our short stay at 225 Shrimp Daddy was fun and relaxing. The accommodation was just as described. The only issue we had was the television. It took two to three remotes to operate. This was a pleasant change from our stay at the Super 8 Motel from Hell in Corvallis, OR. We would definitely stay at The Sea Gypsy again.
This was my 2nd stay in the Shrimp Daddy room. 3rd stay at Sea Gypsy. While the stay is always wonderful, I was not quite as impressed with the cleanliness of the room this time. Floors didn't look like they had been vacuumed very well. I actually found a bracelet I accidentally left in the room when I stayed 2 weeks prior laying next to one of the end tables in the livingroom. Glass dining room table had some food stuck to it from prior guests I guess. I think the stove might need to be updated as the burners didn't work quite like they should. Was able to cook on it but just took about double the time. The Sea Gypsy is very quiet and family oriented, which I ALWAYS enjoy when I go there. You can NOT beat the ocean-front views and beach access. We plan on making this a yearly vacation destination and will definately stay at Sea Gypsy again but in a different room. Thank you Lincoln City, Depoe Bay, and Newport for sharing you beauty with us!! See you next year!!
