Why Choose The Whale Inn in Depoe Bay?
1. Boutique Charm with Character

2. Unbeatable Location
Situated on the north side of Depoe Bay, The Whale Inn is just a short walk to the seawall, harbor, shops, restaurants, and whale-watching viewpoints—no need to drive or search for parking in town. You’re truly in the heart of the action, but just far enough for a peaceful night’s sleep.

Every unit has high-speed WiFi, a flat-screen TV, and a kitchenette for light meals. With contactless self-check-in, secure private access, and individual unit WiFi, guests enjoy both independence and comfort.
4. Pet-Friendly Without Compromise
The Whale Inn welcomes dogs in all rooms (for a small fee) without sacrificing cleanliness or guest satisfaction. If you travel with a pet, you'll find this a rare gem along the Oregon Coast.
5. Local Ownership & Personalized Touch
Owned and operated by people who live and breathe the Oregon Coast, The Whale Inn is maintained with care and a strong commitment to quality—not just turnover. It’s a labor of love, not a corporate operation.
