From Astoria and Warrenton at the northern tip to Brookings-Harbor near the California border, the Oregon coast covers 363 miles of scenic bluffs and sandy beaches. The waters of the Pacific Ocean are cold year-round off the Oregon coast, so swimming without a wetsuit is a chilly proposition. Not to worry; many of the hotels along Oregon's coastline feature heated swimming pools.
The Best Western Beachfront Inn is located in Brookings, at the southern edge of the Oregon coast. The hotel offers an outdoor, heated swimming pool and a hot tub, as well as coin-operated laundry facilities and meeting and banquet space. Rooms feature cable TVs, Internet access and coffeemakers. Optional amenities include refrigerators, microwaves and hot tubs in select suites. Pets are welcome in designated rooms; call ahead to verify the availability of pet-friendly rooms.
