Hotel
All bookings at this resort are condo/suite style with 1 or more bedrooms, but prices are cheaper than hotels in the area and it's only a 10 minute drive from the venue. Resort has the option for 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, and 3 bedroom reservations, if families want to share but still have privacy. Pacific Terrace condos are closest to the beach. There's currently a Winter/Spring 2025-2026 30% discount on bookings.
Flight
Unfortunately, the closest airport to us is Portland International Airport which is about a 2 hour drive away. There are lots of flights and rental car company options there, and please let us know if you need any suggestions! We're also happy to try to help you find a carpool if you let us know when your flight is getting in as we have lots of friends and family either flying into PDX or driving through Portland
