First trip after COVID started, and we decided on Alaska (hesitantly). We stayed at Ocean House based on reviews and photos. We had Suite 4, which was beautiful and exactly as pictured. The ocean view was extraordinary and downright inspiring, and the room furnishings were beautiful and cozy. Perfect for a couple looking for ultimate privacy.
The owner communicated promptly with us by text with check-in instructions and a door code, so it was no contact (we were actually a little disappointed, hoping to connect with others after being on social lockdown for months, but I think with this being a condo type property, this is probably what they always do.) Due to COVID, there was also no housekeeping service. Wasn’t a big deal as we were only there for 2 nights, and the things we needed were supplied.
Note that there are a number of stairs to climb to access certain rooms (#4 included) from the exterior entry (we had a couple of really heavy bags so this made checking in a bit of a struggle, but that’s my fault for overpacking- just be aware!)
Despite being isolated (again, something I think most others would really enjoy- especially those on a romantic trip- but I was there with only my 8 year old son, so definitely a different vibe!), we thought the room was absolutely lovely and would go back again and stay at this property if ever in Homer.
Close enough to Homer Spit and to town, and easy to find with GPS just off main highway. Recommended.
