About this property

Head over eels - Condo at the Sea

Sea Gypsy No. 106, which we call "Head over eels," is a unique ground-floor condo with hardwood-style floors and a cool vibe.

There are no stairs to this condo. You can open your glass-sliding door right onto a grassy patio, which is just steps from the sand. No. 106 was remodeled from head to toe in 2015 with updates including new flooring, paint, cabinets, fixtures and more! 

This condo can sleep up to four people. There is a super comfy king bed in the master bedroom. The oceanside suite has a queen-sized sleeper sofa. Enjoy the convenience of two full bathrooms as well as a full kitchen with tons of cookware, including a crockpot, popcorn popper, panini press, blender and more!

There is complimentary password-protected Wi-fi in this condo as well as a Bluetooth speaker for you to sync your smart phone or MP3 player. For more fun, take a dip in our heated indoor salt water pool then dry off in our cozy sauna.

The Sea Gypsy is adjacent to the famous D River, the shortest in the world. In the spring and summer your kids can play in the shin-deep river. In the winter you can watch migrating salmon scamper up the water. A short walk on the beach north takes you to some tide pools with sea urchins, hermit crabs and other surprises.

Review of room 106

We have stayed at the Sea Gypsy for many years and every time it has been exceptional, I couldn't recommend them more. You will enjoy this place and room 106 was where we stayed last. I would only say if you have guests stay with you bring extra blankets.

Dirty Bird!

Unit 106 should be renamed Dirty Bird! The floor was sticky and not cleaned. The beds and blankets smelt like the last customer's. Overall just dirty. Cleaning fee…Just charge more , because there is no cleaning. Overall pretty disappointed, which sucks because we have come to love the sea Gypsy over the years of staying there. Please do better!

week at the coast

arrived on a Sunday, like the keyless locks, unit was clean, had everything we needed, some things are showing some wear and tear like the chairs at table some of the cooking pans ect. the sliding glass door will not lock make sur you use the stick to ensure it can not be opened, the bed was well lets say i have had better, its not bad but not great, its just a matters on a spring frame, be nice to have it on a box spring. liked the EASY beach access, the unit did us well and we over looked most things that were just not a real big deal to us, it can be noisy when someone is in the unit above, we had someone above us and they were ok, but it all changed on our last night there (a Friday night ) someone new checked in above and it was so load and constant with foot steps and a toddler running around till 1am, and a group of drunk women hanging out in the parking lot at 10pm being loud and using profanity, then moved to beach just outside our door and some males joined them and had a bonfire till around 1am. glad i was leaving the next morning. it seems like the party crowd comes in on the weekends and it seemed like older or more respectful crowd during week and less units are full . if i was to ever to return i think i would rent a top floor unit, but a sliding glass door no steps is a bonus. overall it was good.

Convenient location; great value

Our young family stayed at Head Over Eels for a few days during Spring Break. Pros: Responsive hosts Simple door lock; no keys to fumble with Unbeatable beach access Family-friendly location Laundry available with credit card - very helpful and convenient. The pool! Great customer service from staff on site including maintenance workers who took our trash, opened doors, etc. Lots of towels Lots of dishes for cooking, serving, drinks including s'more roasting sticks. Ample parking Kind guests - my phone was left at the pool and another family turned it into the main office. Wi-Fi (although the host had to help us connect - thank you for your promptness on email!) Great location in Lincoln City! Seconds from 101 Kind of nice to have our beach separated by the river! We noticed that our little stretch of beach was right across from the public access, so we had a little privacy. Opportunities for improvement: We love VRBOs because they're often stocked with those "little things," especially in the kitchen; that's why we choose VRBOs vs. hotels/motels. We longed for more tupperware, plastic wrap/baggies, more spices, cooking spray, etc. Our salt and pepper shakers were empty. Sand on the wood floor - even upon arrival. We are not clean freaks, but did find it a little strange there was so much sand on the floors and no broom provided. I know, "it's the beach! Get over it!" We worked to embrace it. The hosts graciously delivered a broom to us and let us keep it in our condo the rest of the stay. Laundry hours 9-9. Morning people like to do things like this at 5AM :) Small detail, I know...

Disappointed that dirty sheets from hide away bed were left in corner chair. Furniture was dusty & entire floor was very sandy when 1st arrived. Loved key pad entry into unit. Access to beach & swimming pool was excellent. We enjoyed are stay.

Great view

Loved the view and the two bathrooms, the place was spotless. The kitchen is well stocked (but could use a real cutting knife) with cooking and eating utensils and pots/pans. The only issues my guest and I faced were people (kids) walking/running infront of our sliding door frequently to get to the beach so if you're someone who enjoys complete privacy, this will be a challenge. Surprisingly, there was no sound coming from the rooms next door and only minimal from the people upstairs. Otherwise, the stay was pleasant and access to the beach and restaurants was wonderful.

Get away

It was perfect! Wanted to check early but it was a busy weekend so they could not accommodate and the WiFi was down for a short period. Those small issues were it. The weather was great. Check in was easy. The place was clean and everything a person needs was there. The bed was a little squeaky 😂

Nice, simple weekend

Overall, everything was good and as advertised. Easy check-in, great location, right on the beach, roomy. Yes walls are a bit thin, which only bothers if there is an early riser. Some cons, that we didn't notice until we got there, no dishwasher, ice machine was broken and the pull out bed was not something you would want to sleep on for an entire night. Also, maybe put a cutting board in the kitchen? (no biggie - just a suggestion) otherwise kitchen was fully stocked with dishes and utensils, along with good appliances. Thank you for the nice weekend. ( Would of gave 4.5 stars if I could)

Nice condo

Overall this was a nice place. My only issues were that I had to crawl behind the TV to hook up the DVD player. Also, the instructions for the remotes in the livingroom didn't match up with the remotes there. I never was able to use the DVD player. I brought the player from the bedroom out to use. The only other thing was that the salt and pepper shakers that were on the stove were empty. Didn't realize that until I was in the middle of cooking.

Deja vu

This was our 2nd time renting this unit unbeknownst to us when we booked (we must like the decor, but painters really should look at whole unit again for missed spots). It had everything we needed for the stay. We ad-libbed broiled our steaks, so a broiler pan would be awesome next time. Also heater in living room was hit and miss. It wasn't working Saturday night (room was warm enough after cooking dinner), but Sunday am it was working! We will stay again. Some discount codes would speed up the return! 😉

Lovely remodeled unit

We love the Sea Gypsy! This was our first stay in unit 106 and it was very nice. We were surprised that there was no dishwasher in the kitchen, though. We'd also like to suggest installing hand-held shower heads. Otherwise, it's a great unit!

So cute

Was a cute little rental! I love the heated lamps in the bathroom, the easy beach access, and the internet! The only reason for four instead of 5 stars was the beds were extremely uncomfortable, we left three days early because i couldnt sleep in them anymore, and the noise from the units surrounding you is intense. Next time ill be getting a higher level floor.
