All cleaning policies meet or exceed CDC standards and recommendations. Our team wears new masks, gloves and shoes covers each time they enter home to prepare it for a new stay. We clean and disinfect all hard surfaces and high-touch items such as appliance handles, light switches, door knobs, remote controls, etc. We also clean and disinfect all dishes/glassware, silverware, bedding, towels and other linens as well as tubs and toilets. Meredith Lodging has added the extra measure of a pre-check-in inspection to make sure all of our cleaning and disinfecting procedures are complete and to our standard before you arrive.
Once it passes inspection, your home sits empty until you arrive for your contact-free check-in. Additionally, if your home features a private hot tub, rest assured it is disinfected, treated and cleaned thoroughly after each departure so that you and your guests can enjoy it with peace of mind during your stay.
Overall the property was nice and in a great location with private access to the beach. The view from the house is amazing. The property was dog friendly which we appreciated and has a nice yard to the side of the house for the pups. However, some improvements could be made on cleaning and management of this place. Most major touch surfaces such as kitchen counters, tables and bathrooms were clean when we checked in. However, you can see layers of dust from years of not cleaning on the ceiling fans in the rooms that have them. Which means we didn't use them when the room got warm. Upstairs bathroom door isn't fully aligned so the door doesn't really latch and lock unless you push it really hard. All the TV remotes need new batteries, one of the remotes is missing it's battery cover entirely, which is a hazard for small children. Lastly, when we checked-in at 4pm. The key wasn't in the lockbox. This was because the cleaning staff was not even finished. Luckily we were allowed to go inside while staff finished up. The staff member needed another hour to finish making the beds. After a long day of traveling with dogs and a toddler, we expected the property to be ready at check-in time so we could wind down, it's too bad that wasn't the case. These aren't major issues that ruined our stay entirely, but should be improved for cleanliness and safety.
The location is great, however the quality of the home has not been maintained in the condition described/depicted in the photos. For example, the deck was not in usable condition, which is a key feature of a beach home. This should have been communicated before reserving the property, particularly when it was a peak rate. There was a note on a table that could have been easily missed that said to stay off the deck for safety reasons, which was a big risk. In addition, the general condition of the home was lacking. The mattresses sag in the middle and are uncomfortable, particularly in the master bedroom. The kitchen table is in terrible condition. The TV remote batteries are dying and you have to stand right next to the TV to get it to work. Simple things that should get checked at this price point. In addition to the high nightly fee, there was an additional 39% added for host fees (before VRBO service fees and taxes) which comes across as a hidden fee since it's not included as a nightly rate. Cleaning fees and small service fees are understandable but this far exceeded that amount. Overall, great location but the house needs more upkeep for the price.
We enjoyed our stay at the Star of the Sea - on Lincoln City. Beautiful views, especially from the top floor living room and balcony. The house is a bit older and has some items that could use some love. Several rooms had blinds that were broken, so we couldn't block out the early morning sunlight. The garage was kind of messy, which isn't a huge deal, except for keeping the kids away from some of the items left in there. We enjoyed this house with our friends, perfect size and location. Access to the beach was amazing and the stairway down was a nice adventure. Meredith Lodging were accommodating and quick to respond. Thank you!
We had 9 ladies for a girls weekend of paddle boarding and hiking. This house was perfect for beautiful beach views. The stairs were a beautiful entrance to the beach, after a day full of hiking they were harder so walk up and down but not bad. We all said we would stay here again.
Great location and nice house.
Beautiful home, lots of amenities. Good beach access.
Home worked really well for a faily large group! You cannot beat the views and access to the beach!
Really enjoyed the stay, especially the view from the living room.
This property was perfect for our family of 5, 2 grandparents and dog. Lots of beds and room to spread out and not be on top of each other. The location and view cannot be beat. Beach access was amazing. We even walked back to the rental from Mo's after lunch. I would definitely rent this house again. Communication was great from the rental company and check in and out was easy. I have a couple suggestions to make the stay even better: - The kitchen was very well stocked, but we could not find a kettle for the tea drinkers in our group. -The upstairs bathroom door was difficult to shut while locked. You have to really push on it to keep shut. - The front porch gets really slick when wet, I almost fell going out to the car. - The tile is lovely in the kitchen/dining area, but the chairs needs pads on the bottoms to prevent the screeching when they are moved. Thank you for an amazing spring break get away, we hope to be back again soon!
This house is truly oceanfront with a killer view! Be aware there are 70 stairs down to the water, which are not good for the elderly or very small children. But we had no issues with them. The kitchen is fine, except felt pads would be good for the dining room chair feet, as it scrapes and makes a terrible noise when you move them. Upstairs in the living room is where we hung out the most. The view from there is wonderful. The upstairs couches and dining room table need some updating, as they are looking a little rough. The beds were fine, although we found the temperature was quite inconsistent throughout the house. The only real issue was the deck that leads to the front door is incredibly slippery and we had 2 people in our group fall down. They are both fine, but that could be disastrous for an elderly person. We would recommend this home if you want private beach access to a lovely strip of beach with an inviting living room and a very nice backyard that’s mostly, but not quite, secure for dogs. We would stay again!
Clean! And the views were to die for. And the stairs to the beach was a plus. Would definitely stay here again!
The house was great for our group. Lots if space. Great view of the ocean.
I highly recommend this property. It was clean, had bedrooms on both floors so those who struggled with stairs could stay on the main floor. There were only two recommendations I would make to the owner. First would be to fix the lock on the front door, as it was very difficult to open. Second would be to add comfortable seating in the sitting area on the main level (a couple big comfy chairs or loveseats). Other than those two things, it was wonderful, with plent of kitchen utensils, very comfortable upstairs living room, fabulous views of the ocean from both levels. I would definitely rent this house again.
We had a wonderful time! The view is amazing! We had Thanksgiving dinner and I brought a couple extra baking pans but I was amazed at what they had available for cooking utensils. It was great to walk to the beach and to have a mostly fenced yard when I took the dog out in the rain. A few maintenance issues. Porch light was out but managed with the garage light. No fan in the bathroom. Overall I wanted to bring my family and my dogs to the beach for a Thanksgiving gathering. I don’t think I would have found a better option and we had a fabulous time ♥️ We would definitely come back!
