Agate Beach Motel

This was our 2nd stay, the first was several years ago, we had forgotten about this gem.
We had a lovely stay at the Agate Beach Motel we were in room 6. This is a small 1940s motel that has been nicely updated & well cared for. It feels more like your own small private beach apartment with lots of personal touches. Great staff, access to a beautiful beach that was uncrowded, an absolute dog & surfers paradise. Beautiful views, close to town yet off the beaten track with th If you want a clean relaxing place to stay Agate Beach Motel is definitely worth checking out. If you are looking for fancy

Dog-friendly gem walking distance to the Yaquina natural area and two access points to north Agate Beach. Clean, comfortable, and private.

Agate Beach Motel has just ten units; intimate and comfortable. We had a nice sized living room looking out to the ocean, with a full kitchen, bedroom, pullout sofa bed in the living room, and a small deck with chairs for watching the ocean or whale watching. We also enjoyed the carport as our visit was in October and it was rainy. Newport has some lovely restaurants, and we thourghly enjoyed our stay.

To be clear we did not wind up staying at this motel. I will start by saying my husband and I just had our first child 6 weeks ago and we decided last minute to head to the coast for the night for my 31st birthday. We are not fans of Motels/hotels at the moment because we have a newborn and want to keep him away from people due to the delta variant of covid. For some reason this motel was advertised on Airbnb which is where we booked it. I will admit that we ignored the name of the listing which was "agate motel suite" because we had used the filter to only show us properties that we

Surfers paradise. Agate Beach is home to an annual surfer competition organized by Parks and Rec.
Most Days you'll find dozens of surfers enjoying the bounce from the headlands. The Motel offers a chill spot for exploring the coast. One mile walk/drive to the Yaquina Head Lighthouse. Walkers, bike riders and Senior Pass holders enter the park for free.
The motel is minutes from Nye Beach or the Newport or Depot Bay harbors.

Absolutely perfect! Vintage charm with updated rooms. The view of the ocean and sunset is surreal. Exceeded all expectations! We enjoyed the fire in the cool evenings and honestly wanted to just stay forever!! :) Will definitely return.

We'd come back again and again to the Agate Beach Motel!! This place is crazy clean and well organized! Every little detail was well thought of at this cozy destination we've stayed at now a few times, and already booked our room for next year. This staff keeps the property in tip-top shape and the location is unsurpassed to any spot in Newport, for sure!! Can't wait to return next year! Great job team Agate!! Ric and Jill Becker.

Agate Beach Motel is a wonderful find! The location is great, with a view and access to the beach. Our suite (feels like your own little modern cabin) was CHARMING and the highlight of our coastal trip. The staff is friendly and efficient, and provide a "tour" of how everything works in the suite. Everything is fresh and updated and VERY CLEAN!! The bath products are all natural and a treat to use. There are so many thoughtful things - Adirondack chairs on the deck, extra towels, makeup washcloths, cushy bed topper, extra throws, a well equipped kitchen. There are also Adirondack and

Our family had a wonderful time here. Just got back home today. Our children ran around and played in the grassy area while we were at our rooms and they loved it. The staff were super nice and the rooms were super nice and clean. Love the small cottage experience. We were treated great. The private access to the beach was sure a lot of steps but wonderful to have. Not to mention they had everything we needed for our dog including his own blanket. Very sweet. We'll definitely be coming back!

Very cute place right on the beach. Great views from your own private deck. Staff was very friendly! It was a perfect "getaway" to the end of a vacation. Would recommend to anyone and would definitely pick this place again if we came back!

Everything about this place welcomes a peaceful experience. Not only is it the perfect romantic getaway, it's also a wonderful environment to relax and take a breath. They have a kitchen in the rooms which is perfect, you never have to leave your unit! If you're looking to spend all weekend gazing at the ocean from your deck or watching complimentary DVD's, this place is perfect for you.
Right off the highway, it's tucked away and completely hidden. It's quiet and quirky, perfectly nestled among trees, private condos, and easy access to the beach below. By far the best experience I've had anywhere

What a great getaway spot! We booked just one night for our family of 3 (me, my husband, our 1 year old son) and I wish we could have booked more! Our room was quiet, clean, and nicely decorated. It is a huge perk having the bedroom separate from the living area when traveling with a toddler. The bedroom was small but there was just enough room to tuck a pack and play in there. We were able to put our son to bed and enjoy a quiet dinner (delivery from a local restaurant) just the two of us. Waking up and having coffee with a view of the ocean was great too! We had a great time and we will absolutely

Special kudos to the Agate Beach Motel for offering their special Thanksgiving Day takeout dinner special. During this pandemic period, most of us local residents stayed home with just our local family members. For I and my wife, it provided a perfect way to celebrate and give thanks. We will be looking for future specials like this in the future. Thank you

We stayed here when wildfires made our camping plans impossible - we're so thankful we found this place! Friendly helpful staff, clean and comfortable rooms, great kitchen setup and views of the beach out front (when visible through smoke). We appreciated the compost bin available to use in the kitchen as well as locally sourced coffee and other nice toiletries provided. We'll definitely return when we can enjoy it properly with fresh air!

Drove to Agate Beach to escape the madness and found solitude the second I walked through the door. Having our own kitchen and private access to the beach along with a minutes walk to Yaquina Head Lighthouse State Park allowed us to leave our car keys on the counter the entire stay. Staff is amazing and room was clean and accommodating. Would 100% recommend.

Agate Beach Hotel is a wonderful place to stay in Newport. The location is wonderful. It's close to the beach with beautiful beach views, and it's walking distance to the lighthouse and tide pools. The rooms are very spacious with a nicely stocked kitchen. We only stayed here one night, but this would be a great place to stay with a family for multiple nights. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

Hidden gem! Steps away from the beach! Clean and comfy! Got the 2 bedroom queen sweet with a kitchenette - perfect for a girls trip or family trip! Kind of random, but the water pressure In the shower was amazing! We had a late check in and it was very easy and smooth! Will definitely stay here again!

What a wonderful place!! The view is exceptional the staff is amazing! Great accommodations, especially with a pet. We all had a spectacular time and my sweet girl Sophie loved the beach. We will be back again for sure!

My wife and I chose this place while passing through town with our two dogs and decided to give it a shot. Knowing most places that are pet friendly are very uncomfortable and typically run down. This place was amazing, wonderful amenities, comfortable bed, soft blankets, and most important..... delicious local gourmet coffee for in the morning !!! No one ever provides delicious coffee. Staff was extremely friendly and property was very well taken care of cozy, comfortable, wonderful little place to stay absolutely loved it.

Our family has been staying here for many years and recommend it to all of our friends and family. We LOVE this place and look forward to our annual trip. The staff is amazing and very friendly.

Checkin and checkout is easy. We usually rent two units side by side. The cost is comparable to most of the hotels in town. They offer a discount to returning guest if you call the office for reservations. We also love this place is family owned and you can tell by the hospitality.

The views and access to the beach create a relaxing and family/dog friendly experience. A nice easy mile or so walk to

Perfect little slice of heaven! So family friendly and personable. We feel like family! Same enough for great individual service. Will be back for certain!

A refurbished 1940's motel that oozes charm and terrific location. North of town so away from the bustle of Newport.


Pros: super friendly staff, charming facility, terrific location. Great views. Our room has a kitchen, bedroom, living room, bathroom, sleeper couch, and covered parking. Decor is modern beach. Excellent WiFi. Deck with deck chairs, easy beach access via a steep walk down a paved path. Good view of Yaquina Head. Very chill.


Cons: expensive. Bedroom is tiny, can barely walk around the bed. Strong smell of dryer sheets on all of the bedding, so not a good choice for allergy

This place is awesome! The room is adorable and spotless. Many little touches: a ribbon around the guest blanket, chocolate on the night stand, locally sourced coffee and soap--- these little things make all the difference. On top of the room and goodies--- an awesome view and short walk to a sandy beach. The beach was perfect for my young kiddos, it stays shallow for a ways out. We have very much enjoyed our stay.

We are now ending our third stay at this awesome little place on the ocean. We will be sad to move down the coast to a new location. This time, we stayed in Unit 4, which is next door to The unit we stayed in in our first visit. This place did not disappoint yet again! I wish we could stay longer!

I love that I know what to expect here, there is private beach access, that we have a kitchen to prepare meals in, because that means we can afford to stay longer if most of our meals are prepared in our room, and that it has a living area that makes me feel like I'm home. This is our home

This was our first experience with Agate Beach Motel, and we will definitely re-book. The stay was delightful from the minute we pulled in and registered with Paula, who led us to our unit and showed us the sweet little suite, and answered our questions. The rooms had everything we needed and the view was beautiful.

Nicely renovated 1940s motor inn. We stayed in Room 5. I'd honestly rate probably 3.5 stars.

They've done a very nice job updating the property but walls are a bit thin so I can hear that the next door neighbor has walked back and forth in their unit (with heavy foot steps) a bunch of times. Not such a big deal unless it's before 7am like it is for me.

Simply appointed room: electric wall hanging "fireplace" (good ambiance and did provide added warmth), bistro-sized kitchen table, couch could seat 3 adults if needed but can't really lay down, a sitting chair, as

Great views! Fun rooms! Perfect getaway! We came for a night away for our anniversary and enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere. Such a fantastic place to stay. Great experience!

Wife and I stayed here (unit 6) early April 2016. We thought it was very nicely renovated, yet maintained a mid-century charm. Beautiful cliff side spot, with ever-present crashing ocean sound. Our unit was dog friendly. It's a little hard to locate if you're exclusively using your phone to navigate...a copilot is needed (hard to locate b/c of crazy local streets). The hotel's website was quite accurate, and we had no surprises. We will definitely stay here again.

We stayed here Friday, October 19, 20, and 21, 2012, leaving Monday morning, the 22nd. Friends had recommended this motel to us when we came to the coast. We called ahead for availability about 3pm from Redmond, Oregon, and were surprised when Maggie said we had about a 5 hour drive; she was right. We arrived in the dark, about 8:30pm, and were so happy to find that our cozy room (room 1) was actually a little apartment, half of a duplex cabin. There is a double garage between the two halves of the cabin. There was a living room with an electric fireplace and a dining table that we moved in front
