The Best Ocean Shores Vacation Rentals

The Polynesian Resort has been a staple of Ocean Shores for years, now reimagined as individually owned vacation rentals—each with its own style, personality, and level of beachy charm. From cozy, classic interiors to updated, modern spaces, no two stays are exactly alike. Choose from ocean view units or top-floor penthouses, with select condos offering pet-friendly options.

Our Ocean Shores vacation rentals give you more room to settle in and make your stay your own. Many condos feature full kitchens for everything from quick breakfasts to family dinners, while comfortable living spaces give you a place to relax after a day of exploring. Whether you’re planning a family vacation, couples getaway, weekend with friends, or a trip with your four-legged travel companion, you can find a condo that fits the way you like to vacation.

Just a short walk to the beach, the Polynesian Resort is an easy home base for everything Ocean Shores does best. Spend the day razor clamming, take a long walk along the shoreline, explore local shops and restaurants, or check out the many family-friendly activities around town. When you’re ready to slow things down, there’s plenty to enjoy without leaving the property.

Guests have access to an indoor heated pool and hot tub, along with a game room, outdoor park and playground, picnic and barbecue areas, and plenty of free parking. With accommodations ranging from comfortable condos to spacious penthouses, there are options for quick weekend trips, longer vacations, and just about everything in between.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Polynesian Resort. Super close to the beach so you can hear the waves all the time. Just a little bit of a walk to the beach, but well worth it. I definitely stay here again.

Came down for a long weekend and was welcomed by friendly staff. Our room had been freshly painted, clean and inviting. We stayed in a one bedroom unit with two beds and nice kitchen. Highly recommend and looking forward to coming back again.

Polynesian History

The Polynesian Resort has been part of Ocean Shores since the area’s early development in the 1960s and ’70s, when the peninsula was shaped into a beach destination. As one of the original oceanfront resorts, it quickly became a go-to for visitors looking for easy access to the sand and classic Washington coast views.

A classic resort with a new chapter

What began as a traditional oceanfront resort now exists as a collection of individually owned condos. The layout remains familiar, but each unit brings its own style, pace, and personality to the experience.

Famous former employees

Part of the Polynesian’s history includes a connection to one of the Pacific Northwest’s most recognizable musicians. Before rising to fame, Kurt Cobain worked at the Polynesian as a janitor/maintenance employee, adding an unexpected layer to the property’s story—one that ties it to the region’s cultural legacy.

Iconic previous guests

The Polynesian has also hosted its share of notable guests. John Wayne once stayed in the penthouse unit 402 while filming McQ, linking the resort to a moment in film history and adding another chapter to its coastal story.
