Our Business History
Whales Watch Vacation Rentals is a small family-owned business specializing in comfortable, privately-owned vacation homes. The owners are people just like yourself, and we know you'll treat their homes with the same pride and care that you do your own.
We have lived here at Heceta Beach since 1994. Our house is a duplex, we live in half and the other half is our vacation rental. We enjoy sharing with others what we get to enjoy every day. My husband was from Milwaukee Wisconsin, via Texas & Alaska. And I was originally from Northern, then Southern California. We fell in love with the small town atmosphere, and the temperate climate. It may be rainy, but you don't have to shovel rain, and the Ocean Breezes keep it an even 70 in the summer.
Our home "Whales Watch" has been a vacation rental since 1988 and we have been managing it since 1998. So we know what people are looking for in a Vacation Rental and how to market them. We were the first vacation rental with a website in Florence, and began offering our services to our neighbors in 2005. We are not an all inclusive property management company, we only manage vacation rentals. Because of that we can devote our time and offer friendly service with a smile, to both our guests and home owners.
We have a list of "things we do differently" that we'd love to share with you, as well as references from REALLY happy homeowners. If you are looking for a change please contact us, we're serious about what we do! We live at Heceta Beach and are here when you need us! (800)760-1866
