Other rooms include the Tiki Cha Cha, the Oregon Trail, The Tiki Lounge, and That 70’s Room. We love this hotel because it’s simple yet incredibly charming. It’s also locally run which is always good. When you spend money on local businesses you support the community.

What’s even better? The owners of this place go beyond being a simple themed inn. They offer some great Oregon experiences like bicycle tours and crabbing adventures.

Newport Belle Bed and Breakfast

Location: Newport

The Newport Belle B&B is another super unique place to stay on Oregon Coast. It’s not actually a hotel building. Not even a shack or a small bungalow. No, Newport Belle B&B is housed inside a paddlewheel boat that was built in 1993. Wow!

Of course, the boat is not going anywhere anymore. It’s very nice for a romantic getaway on the Oregon Coastline. In fact, the hotel is adults only with couples taking the center stage.

The hotel only has five rooms so an intimate atmosphere is almost guaranteed. Rooms are all styled to match the ship’s atmosphere, meanwhile keeping it modern and very comfortable. Being a ship accommodation all rooms have nice views of the ocean.
