Probably because things are changing all the time. Did you check the webiste for open ammenities? I called the resort a week or so ahead and was told all the "rules".

I was booked here but the resort is not open for pool, spa, and exercise areas a. For a week stay you can reserve 2 one hour swim sessions in the pool. Why was this information not shared while booked waitlist resorts.

Trivia: colors of Seaside’s decorating and what year? Can anyone add or correct?

11/2003 opening I recall some grey/green walls in the hall.
? 2009- 2014? Ketchup and mustard colors and perhaps the famous dog with an apple on its head watercolor was here the whole time?

2014- 2020 the bright aqua carpets in the halls. Startling, but I loved it. New beach art and the giant clam and starfish, which they got rid of 2018? Several of us have clamshell souvenirs, with permission.
2020- grey/ beige/blue

After having 3 reservations canceled due to pandemic, I was told August 1 was the earliest anything would be available in OR and WA. Imagine my surprise when everything opened at full capacity, and us poor souls who’d been trying for months, got no info 😡.

Anyway, I happened on to Seaside and got 2 nights. lovely room, blah blah. Decorated now in soft grey, beige and blues. New carpet, paint and soft furnishings. Wooden furniture and art seem to be the same. They have made the area by the double elevators faux wood. That’s new. No vending machines, hot tub, rec room or computer rm avail at this time.

Your whole party gets one hour of scheduled pool time for your entire stay. Less kids in the pool is the upside. Still pressure to go to a sales meeting. Started at 10,000 one time points, and called later to offer 15,000. Even though I have 35,000 annually, can hardly pay those dues and told them that my mother (the other owner) was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer the day before, so we are in shock and need time for peace... they still bugged us.

To avoid owners saving parking passes til next time, or parking on the street, they no longer have keycards. Everyone in the party gets a bracelet with a chip that opens doors and the garage. So you can’t skip the pressure desk. 2 lines to wait in. Yay🙄. However this is very cool, not forgetting or digging for a key. Besides that, once we did skip the desk in 2019, and they called at 8:45 to tell us we’d be towed without a pass. Grrrr The next day, some genius female at the sales desk said that if we reused a pass, “it was a good way to get kicked out.” What? Of my reservation? This wasn’t supposed to be a complaint session, but pool hours (in the old days) and the sales desk make my blood pressure go up.

Taxes. Several WM are in areas with no lodging tax, but alas, Seaside is not.

Does anyone know why there is still a charge for booking at Seaside, even though I have credits and housekeeping available?

Say that you reserved a week (7-nights) in Seaside and wanted to rent it out. What's the best way of doing it? Should I rent only to other WorldMark owners, or is it safe to rent to non-owners? Is there any protection for me "owner" if the "guests" happen to do any damage to the unit during their stay? Does resort take down credit card info of "guest" for any accidentals?

You use your room key to get into the parking garage and you do not need a parking pass. When checking in they ask for your license plate number.

Do yourself a favor-park on the street and avoid having to go to the "parking pass" desk, they harass to the hilt to get you to go to their sales (they call it a "informational class") meeting the next morning. Other than the sales people who don't understand "NO", it's a great place to stay.

We will not be using a 1 Br in Seaside on Sunday August 12 thru Sunday August 19. Contact me if you are interested in making arrangements to use this 1br in Seaside. Thanks.

Unfortunately have to cancel a 1 bedroom at Seaside for tonight and tomorrow night 02/22-02/24. Calling in about 30 minutes. Message me if you'd like it.

I have a 2 bedroom reserved for Friday, September 22 through Friday, September 29 - I will be traveling solo so just need one room if someone wants to trade + some vacation cash.

We have stayed several times at this resort. Great location and staff.
There are many activities to participate in and the the area is so breath taking. Great kite flying location. We enjoyed the drive down to Cannon Beach and other locations along the coast.

The penthouses face directly the ocean.
We just stayed in a 3 Bdrm deluxe and we had a jacuzzi bathtub in the master bath and we had partial view on the ocean.

What is the difference between a 3 BR Deluxe and a 3 BR Penthouse? Are the extra credits worth it? Thanks!!

July 2015 Seaside it one of the most popular destinations for good reason. The resort i just steps away from the ocean. It is certainly up to typical WM standards. There are numerous employees there all day who are more than happy to make sure you have a great stay. Seaside is full of good dining, fun activities, and close to other ocean communities. A visit to Fort Clatsop National Park is one activity well worth your time if you are a history buff. Two places we found to eat this time that are excellent are Nonni's Italian and Bell Buoy cafe. Both are walkable, the Bell Bouy is a half mile or more. The only complaint, and there is nothing to do but be patient, is the lack of elevators. A bonus this stay. We checked out by ten a.m. and received a $10 certificate for breakfast good at three places. Since we had eaten in the room we were able to use it at the little cafe and store in the lobby. Nice incentive.

I have a 3 Bedroom Deluxe Room reserved from Aug. 9th -16th. Unfortunately, our plane reservations are for the 8th-15th. Does anyone have reservations that they would like to rent out for Aug. 8th in Seaside? Any size of unit would be fine! Thanks SO much!

Happy New Year!!!!!

Another great New Years Eve at Seaside Oregon
Fire work are poppin and nice fires on the beach. Who could ask for more.
