The view makes this motel wonderful! It’s a little outdated but that is part of its charm. Private beach access and gorgeous views were great. Be sure to get a second story beach view room.

Only had a couple nights here in Homer but thoroughly enjoyed it and would stay there again. It's located on the right just as you are entering town. The property has several buildings and easy access to the beach. The Kannery Restaurant is right next door and the River Cafe is a short walk (great place for breakfast). The views from my room were spectacular!

Fun waking up to squawking birds! Really, I just like the location. Way better to be on Bushops Beach and off the Spit.

We enjoyed our stay at this property! It was very clean and comfortable. The view was amazing and it's nice that every room has their own balcony with a view. You could also easily walk down to the beach! The only things that could have made our stay better was breakfast and blackout curtains.

We loved our stay at The Ocean Shores! The view from our room window was awesome and beautiful! the path to the beach was easy to navigate and the beach was pretty cool! The location is perfect: close to restaurants and the spit. we actually spent an entire afternoon just sitting on the balconey soaking up the sun and enjoying the scenery.

The room is spacious and I love how retro it is with decorations/microwave etc. The restaurant and coffee cart right there are amazing quality. Really the best feature is the beach trail down to Bishop’s Beach!
