WorldMark Seaside

I have stayed in many hotels, houses and condo's in Seaside and was curious about this resort. The location is one of the best because it is right on the Prom and beach, and near all the restaurants and shops. There is a nice kitchenette area. The unit was a 2 bedroom, and although not advertised, also had a pull out wall bed and a sofa bed. That was a nice perk I thought they should have mentioned. The unit was clean and in good condition. Like just about all the condo's and hotels in the area, it is older and in need of an update- or perhaps Seaside just needs to add a few newer more modern options. it does not have AC, which I typically don't need in Seaside, but I had a side unit facing Tillamook head that really lacked airflow even with the balcony door open all the time, which can make it heat up and be more stuffy. The windows only slant open and don't open in full so that doesn't help. It has a pool and hot tubs, but they are small and often overcrowded. The staff was pleasant, but aggressive about sales and trying to get you to buy into a Timeshare. I often like to take my dogs to the beach and note this spot is not pet friendly. There is no snack or eating options which would be nice and something you typically see in a place tagged as a resort. They charge a lot of Wifi which is really a dated practice. It's free everywhere and has been for years. Overall, my stay was adequate. The Sand and Sea is a better option in my opinion if you wont a condo set up, your money goes further and it's a similar location on the Prom.

Beachfront resort in town with restaurants and shops surrounding the area! Beautiful pools and hot tubs. Elevators from any level of parking garage to your floor with luggage carts on each floor for arrivals and departures. Excellent!

Pros: location on the beach, heated pool, game room, full kitchen, balcony with a grill Cons: no restaurant on site, no usb outlets in room, no complimentary wi-fi, no privacy if you want the view, mediocre water pressure, crowded hot tubs
