Headlands Lodge & Spa

Northern Oregon Coast


Looking out over the dune at Cape Kiwanda and a haystack rock rising out of the sea beyond the waves, this new hotel (opened in 2018) is one of the most luxurious on the coast. On offer are beach yoga classes, group meditation in an ocean-view room and fine dining on Northwest cuisine on-site at the Meridian Restaurant & Bar.
