Overleaf exceeded our expectations, and that's saying a lot because we'd heard very good things about it. The room was incredible, the spa outstanding, the location awe-inspiring. My anti-aging facial was one of the best spa treatments I've ever had anywhere.

While in the spa, I took an interest in of their Aveda line of beauty products but I was hesitant to buy because they were pricey. No one pressured me--thank goodness, because I hate that--but instead they suggested that I come back the next morning and use their samples in place of my own products as I got ready for the day, to see how I liked them. That was a deal I couldn't refuse. Of course, they knew exactly what they were doing, haha, because in the end I plopped down a fortune on the items I liked best.

Our family especially appreciated the library/game room, because we had relatives also staying in the area and needed a place to get together where we could play a few board games and laugh and talk without worrying about bothering our neighbors. We ended up using that room for hours and a great time was had by all. They came back the next day after checkout and we all enjoyed climbing around the rocks on the waterfront.

Finally, the breakfast was astonishing, don't miss it! I almost did, but then my husband texted me and said "Get down here, you won't be sorry." He was right, I wasn't. :)

My only complaint, and it's a big one, came beforehand: The room descriptions on the website are very confusing because they don't correlate with the site's reservations page. I wasted a LOT of time trying to figure out how to reserve the type of room I wanted, and I still wasn't sure I'd gotten it right until we checked in. They need to fix that, it was very frustrating! From what I recall, I wanted a Restless Waters room, but on the reservations page it was listed as a KING FP w/ WHIRL-SO. VIEW. Good grief, what a pain.

Otherwise, we're now big fans of Overleaf and recommend it wholeheartedly.

The spa facilities are first class with options to fit everyone's needs/desires. The massage by Mary Beth will keep me coming back for more!! The special pampering I received also rid me of some aches and pains, and was soooooooo relaxing. The kindness and caring emitted by Mary Beth was "spiritually" healing in itself!!

Although we did not stay in the hotel the lobby and outdoors are gorgeous. Looks like anyone would love to stay there. Very clean and well-tended.

We were booked to stay at the Fireside Motel next door. When we arrived for our three night stay, the desk clerk discovered they had made a mistake. Our reservation had been made for 2013, instead of 2012. Without hesitation, she said she would put us in an ocean-front room next door at their sister motel, the Overleaf Lodge.

The room was very large with a king bed, kitchenette, sofa, easy chair and ottoman and a first for us, a jacuzzi tub with an ocean view.

This was no ordinary continental breakfast. It was more like a hotel brunch buffet with fresh fruit, scones, several kinds of cold cereal, Bob's five grain hot cereal, and two breakfast entrees, such as a baked apple French toast and a spinach souffle.

I selected the Reviving Face and Sole facial and foot treatment at the Spa. Gail was excellent. We didn't use the spa jacuzzis because we had one in our room. We didn't use the fitness room either. It's kind of small with a very small television.

Our room was very comfortabl and clean. They provide receptacles for recycling. There's even a phone next to the toilet. We didn't have any reason to use it.

The television was not a flat screen and was small. There was a DVD player that worked.

The view to the ocean was mesmerizing. We did walk the 804 trail that runs right in front of the Lodge. It is a safe and easy walk to the ocean. Waterproof boots or shoes are advised.

The Fireside Motel has a nice gift gallery in their lobby. Some of the best art in Oregon are represented in four galleries just slightly north of the Overleaf on the left side of the highway going into Yachats. The smallest gallery was closed until Jan. 26. The one next door had an excellent selection of jewelry and other art at fair prices. The gallery next door features Bob Keller's photographs. He was there at the time and we had a nice talk about his work. The gallery on the other side had higher end and larger pieces that were absolutely beautiful. Don't miss these galleries.

The only things that could be improved in the room would be better lighting near the sofa to read by and firmer pillows.

I would highly recommend this place for a destination vacation.

My guy and I had massages scheduled at Overleaf. ( We are local) Neither of us had ever been there. Once we were introduced into the spa and had the pleasure of using all the amenities while waiting for our massage appointments, we were hooked. We ended up booking a room for the night and continuing to enjoy the steam room, hot tub, soaking tub, sauna, and a beautiful oceanfront room. It's well worth the money to stay there! They also have a wonderful complimentary breakfast. During the off season time, they have a coupon deal on their website that offers a discount on your room if you bring in a canned food donation for each night you stay, that goes to the local food pantry for people in need. Nice!
