Manzanita, Oregon is known as a quintessential beach community with sandy beaches, local boutiques, a bakery (with delicious homemade pies), quaint coffee shops and nearby restaurants to explore. This area of the Oregon Coast is pretty quiet compared to bustling Cannon Beach, Newport and Lincoln City, especially on weekdays during slow seasons.
Manzanita is great for uninterrupted long walks on the beach with just a handful of dog walkers or joggers. On weekends, the beach remains relatively quiet, even with the increase of tourists coming in. It’s an ideal destination for a classic coast getaway with plenty to see and do. The area offers scenic hiking trails, local parks and Nehalem Bay, where the local seals and other wildlife migrate. Nehalem Bay is a great spot to “seal watch” up-close, particularly at dusk, when they often appear in droves.

Conveniently located, just steps away from the Manzanita beachfront, and walking distance from the heart of town, the ease of getting to town or to picturesque beachfront spots adds to the appeal. While at Villa Manzanita, there will be no need for driving as everything is within walking distance.

Imagine starting off romantic rainy days with a cup of locally-roasted coffee, to then enjoy leisurely afternoon strolls along the beach, visiting local boutiques and wine tasting, experiencing sea life up-close, to then relax in a private hot tub, or cozy fire.
If you are in the mood for a day trip, Cannon Beach and Rockaway Beach are short distances, either North or South on US 101.
The Winery at Manzanita is also a fun place to unwind. Sip the quality local wines while enjoying an outdoor fire pit, or relax indoors among rustic, urban decor with large roll-up doors that offer a great view (and place to stay dry on rainy days).
