We have stayed at the Ester Lee numerous times, and when our beloved black labrador was still alive, she could accompany us to one of the pet friendly cottages and always received a special treat. The Ester Lee has both cottages and motel rooms, I believe the latter were built in the 70s, and they all have a very vintage... More

The view is unsurpassed, and the beach walks are phenomenal if you don't mind a very short, steep hike back to the motel. This was our third stay at the Ester Lee, and as always, it was impeccably clean. The front desk staff are warm and welcoming, and the pet-friendly rooms are greatly appreciated. A few minor concerns keep us... More

Older motel with fairly large rooms. The Ester Lee also has cottages to rent. Beautiful view of the ocean for watching the waves or the sunset from your room. Room has 2 lounge chairs that are soft, a working table with 2 chairs. a short credenza, and a microwave and refrigerator. The heat is from the fireplace, so I don't... More

We stayed in a pet friendly studio, room 116. The room in nicer than the pictures show. The bathroom is updated and VERY clean. The carpets were freshly shampooed and everything was just very clean. The view is awesome. We got there just in time to watch the sunset over the ocean from comfort of the room. The beach is... More

I was 5 years old the first time my family stayed here. Now 60 years later, those of us still able to travel spend at least one long weekend a year. We invite friends when it is just my husband and me and share the apartment and cost. Beautiful views overlooking the ocean. Clean accommodations. Well stocked kitchen. Friendly staff... More

My partner and I loved our stay here. Of course the view was excellent and the wood burning fireplace with lots of chopped wood provided made for a very romantic getaway. The full kitchen was great to have too. It was like a little home away from home. And the evening staff was so friendly and helpful. My only regret... More

I've been taking mini-vacations at Ester Lee in Lincoln City for the last 25 years, and my parents stayed there before I started. Get a room in the cottages. Not your luxury, modern sort of place, but homey, good kitchenettes, great views and beach at a very reasonable price. More

If you like beds that are very hard then you will love this place. Also if you don't care if you have to sit in the bathroom to get your free wifi. Then asked to change rooms and they made us pay more. That bed was just as hard as the other probably got 4 hours sleep total in 2... More

We have stayed at the Ester Lee Motel when we visit the Oregon coast for many years now. We have always had good experiences there. Their staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms have great views of the ocean and their rates are affordable! We love the gas fire places and being able to listen to the ocean from our... More
