The Moby House: Coastal Retreat with Ocean Views & Hot Tub

The Moby House: Your Dream Coastal Getaway in Depoe Bay

Nestled along Oregon’s stunning Central Coast, The Moby House offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, breathtaking views, and an unbeatable location. Whether you’re an avid whale watcher, a fishing enthusiast, or simply looking for a peaceful retreat near the sea, this coastal gem has everything you need for a memorable getaway. With stunning ocean views, luxurious amenities, and easy access to Depoe Bay’s best attractions, The Moby House ensures a one-of-a-kind coastal experience that you’ll cherish for years to come.

The Ultimate Location: Close to Everything You Love
One of the biggest draws of The Moby House is its exceptional location in Depoe Bay, renowned as the “Whale Watching Capital of the World.” Just a short walk from your doorstep, you’ll find the iconic Depoe Bay Sea Wall — the ideal spot to watch gray whales as they migrate along the coast. The area’s unique geographical features provide you with some of the best whale watching opportunities available anywhere in the world. Whether you're a seasoned whale watcher or it's your first time spotting these magnificent creatures, you’ll be amazed by the close-up views you can get directly from the sea wall.

You’ll also be steps away from the harbor, where you can embark on thrilling whale watching tours or charter fishing trips for an unforgettable ocean adventure. Explore the depths of the Pacific on a guided fishing trip, or experience the excitement of a whale watching tour with local operators like Tradewinds Charters or Dockside Charters, just a short walk away. The Moby House is perfectly positioned to provide access to all the maritime experiences Depoe Bay is famous for, making it an ideal base for any ocean lover.

In addition to the natural beauty surrounding the property, The Moby House is conveniently located just a stone’s throw from downtown Depoe Bay. You’ll find charming local shops, cozy cafes, and delicious restaurants where you can savor fresh seafood, enjoy a casual meal, or pick up a unique souvenir. Whether you're in the mood for a leisurely stroll along the picturesque bayfront or want to enjoy a meal with a view, everything you need is right at your fingertips.

Unrivaled Views of the Ocean and Beyond
Step inside, and you’ll be greeted by spectacular panoramic views of the ocean, the harbor, and the rugged coastline. From the spacious decks and private balcony, you’ll be able to enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the Pacific, watch the waves crash along the shore, or even catch a glimpse of whales breaching in the distance. The expansive windows of The Moby House invite the outdoors in, making you feel constantly connected to the ever-changing beauty of the ocean.

Whether you're sipping a morning coffee or unwinding with a glass of wine in the evening, these unbeatable views will make your stay truly special. Imagine spending your evenings relaxing in the hot tub, with the soothing sound of waves as your backdrop and the twinkling stars overhead. The peaceful, scenic atmosphere of the house makes it the perfect spot for unwinding after a day of adventure or simply taking in the natural beauty that defines the Oregon Coast.

For those who enjoy outdoor living, The Moby House offers multiple levels of decking, including a private balcony on the top floor. The large deck off the main living area is perfect for gatherings, whether you’re grilling dinner on the BBQ or simply enjoying a conversation as the sun sets over the water. If you’re looking to relax in ultimate comfort, the hot tub located on the lower deck is the ideal spot to soak while taking in the surrounding natural splendor. Hot tub use is entirely at your own risk, so guests should enjoy it responsibly.

A Spacious and Modern Coastal Retreat
Designed with comfort and relaxation in mind, The Moby House offers a spacious layout that accommodates up to 6 guests. The main living area is located on the second floor, where you’ll find an open-plan space with expansive windows showcasing the views of the ocean. The thoughtfully designed living area is perfect for both entertaining and relaxing, with plush seating, a cozy gas fireplace, and smart home features including two Smart TVs for streaming entertainment.

The master suite is located on the top level of the house and features a king-sized bed, panoramic ocean views, and an ensuite bathroom with a tub/shower combination. If you're traveling with a group, the lower level offers two additional bedrooms—a king-sized bed (which can be split into two twin-sized beds upon request) and a queen-sized bed—ensuring everyone has their own space to relax. The main level also offers a comfortable sleeper sofa, allowing additional guests to stay with ease.

The fully equipped kitchen is a culinary haven, with modern stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and all the essentials for preparing your meals. Whether you're cooking a gourmet dinner or making a quick snack, you'll find everything you need right at your fingertips. The dining table, illuminated by a stunning chandelier, provides a cozy setting for family meals or evening get-togethers.

We highly recommend to anybody looking for a nice, cozy getaway!

Last minute luck out

We had planned a trip to the mountains but the fire fighting activity pushed us back home. We checked availability in DB and lucked out on this place. It's a very nice property. Well furnished and equipped. Great location. Great views. No complaints. Couple of suggestions... I like to read on these trips. This place could stand to have a better reading chair and light. The master suite has such a great view. It also has plenty of space where a seating area could be set up, so you could lounge somewhere other than the bed. The hot tub is great, but it could use more screening. The curtains are a nice idea, but ineffective and difficult to manage. Wood screening could be built into the railing that would help, and plant materials could be grown in the adjacent ledge area. I think that lower deck could really be made into a wonderful, secluded haven if the views of and from the adjacent properties were limited. That could be accomplished without sacrificing any of the ocean view. Great stay though. Really enjoyed it.

Whale watching weekend

This home was set up perfectly for our family of six. We spent the days seeing the sights along the coast, enjoying fresh seafood, shopping, and soaking in the hot tub at the end of the day. Highly recommend whale watching with Carrie-it was a success! Also spotted whales using the binoculars off the deck at the house. Beautiful place to visit!

Great Home, Great Location

This home is a great place for a family. It is 3 stories and has more than enough space for everyone to spread out. The views from the master bedroom are amazing! We also enjoyed coffee and a view on the main deck every morning. The kitchen is well stocked and made cooking meals at home easy. It's a short walk to the row of shops and restaurants. If you're looking for a great all in one kind of rental, this is it!!

Exceeded all expectations

Our family of 4 adults and our large dog spent a long weekend at the Moby House. We arrived with high expectations, based on previous reviews, and weren’t dissapointed. The house was well equipped and we wanted for nothing. Of course the fact that the weather was exceptional for mid March didn’t hurt! We were able to enjoy the most amazing sunsets from the balcony and were lucky to spot several whales close enough to shore to see with the naked eye. An additional bonus was that we slept like babies, listening to the surf - and barely noticed traffic noise from the highway. We plan to return!

The house was very nice. The main deck had a view of the water and the master bedroom upstairs was even better. The living room/kitchen area has a fireplace which adds to the cozy feel. Downstairs on the deck outside is the hottub which does cost extra - you have to call the management company for the fee and the unlock code for the lock on the tub. Was it worth the extra money... yes I think so although the view from there is of the parking lot of another hotel. There are privacy curtains around the tub . Overall a very nice place to stay.

Awesome getaway!

This condo is so clean, modern, and spacious. It made our getaway to the coast that much more awesome. You can actually see whales from the balcony and windows! It is packed full of amenities you would expect from a hotel (toiletries, coffee, etc) but with the privacy of an entire condo!

Incredible whale watching getaway

Of all the houses I've rented/stayed in, this was top 3 if not the best one. We went for a short girl's trip away (no kids) and wanted to relax, unwind and eat great food and this home was set up perfectly for just that. Each morning I woke up in the master and watched whales in the cove. The main level porch with large Adirondack chairs was so peaceful watching whales and drinking coffee. The only hesitation I had when booking was that it was pet friendly, not because I don't like dogs (I have them and love them), but have stayed in rentals that were trashed from having dogs and at the coast, often had that wet dog smell- this was as far away from that as possible because of the care they put into protecting the furniture/home and cleaning crew. It was immaculately clean and incredibly well stocked. There was nothing to be nitpicky about, it was that good. Can't wait to come back with my family!

Relaxation with a view

Beautiful property, comfortable beds, well-appointed kitchen, living, room and bathrooms. Everything was super clean. It wasn't clear from the listing that all bedrooms were either up or down a lot of stairs. Not a problem when booked but a family member broke her patella, so luckily she was able to navigate - lots of stairs to all bedrooms. Combo on lock for hot tub was very hard to see. View was exceptional. Very comfortable overall. Loved the electric fireplace and use of garage
