Sona Tra (Gaelic for "Happy Beach")

Sona Tra was an ideal getaway for our family, with plenty of tide-pool wading, walks on the beach, hiking nearby, and an easy drive to Cannon Beach and Seaside. The house was perfect: well-appointed kitchen, plenty of firewood for the cozy family-room fireplace, comfortable rooms, and lots of beach equipment. We wouldn't have changed a thing.

Quiet Respite
Just spent a wonderful week at this beautiful beach house. We loved being only steps from the sand. House is fully equipped to ease our planning. Loved every minute!

Really enjoyed our 2 weeks in Arch Cape
Sona Tra is even better than advertised. Beautiful home that has been meticulously kept. Nice appliances. And a great location. Great access to the beach. If we ever return to the Oregon coast we would definitely stay here again

Relaxing piece of paradise
This house is a dream. The kitchen is fabulous but the master bedroom is paradise with balconies to the eastern mountains and to the west with ocean sunsets. Near perfection.

Top notch company
Our vacation was amazing! The house was impeccable, beautiful and comfortable. The thing I am most impressed with is the staff at Starfish Luxury Rentals. They went above and beyond to make this vacation special for us. I highly recommend Starfish if you are coming to the coast and you value truly personal and exceptional customer service.

Perfect Spring Break
Another perfect stay on the Oregon Coast! Sona Tra is a beautiful house with amazing ocean views. It is close to hiking trails and the towns of Manzanita and Cannon Beach. You will not go wrong staying at this property! Starfish Vacation Rentals is the best rental company! They take great care of their properties and go up and beyond for their guests. You can rest assured that every detail will be perfect for your stay.

Great family getaway
We were looking for a quiet family getaway and this house was perfect. Beach front so we could watch the waves from in the house or go walking. Super clean and functional. We were talking a about a return trip after the first night. Likely to become a family tradition & of we want to venture farther Starfish Luxury Rentals will be out first spot to check. Easy to work with and attentive to clients.

All You Wished for and More
Sona Tra is a wonderful house! Our family stayed here recently and loved every minute of it. The house is very clean and the touches throughout are updated and luxurious. The kitchen has everything you need to cook meals while being able to see the ocean (makes doing dishes a little more appealing). The front yard is a great place to play games or just watch the ocean. A fun surprise was the ping pong table in the garage! The only thing that should be noted is that getting to the beach is over a lot of rocks. Young people and most dogs will be fine but those who are very stable will need a good walking stick. Also, the rental company overall is very nice and responsive in case anything comes up!

Sona Tra Beach House
We love staying at this property. It’s a wonderful location with amazing ocean views. The home is comfortable and clean with all the right amenities. The staff at starfish are helpful and pleasant to work with. Our vacation here is always relaxing and we look forward to our next stay.

Wonderful house for a December vacation
The house is spacious and well appointed. The master bedroom loft is amazing with the en suite bathroom which looks brand new. The guest bedroom is a little small but the guest bathroom shower there is wonderful. The views are outstanding from the kitchen, dining and living area and especially from the upper balcony. It was very easy to get to the beach from the house. The fireplace works well and there was plenty of wood. Even the weather was great!

Lovely Sona Tra
We had a great stay at Sona Tra. The home was lovely, nicely furnished and comfortable. The location was spectacular and peaceful.

Great Beach Get Away
This home couldn't be better located on the beach. And the while the views are awe inspiring the thing that really set this home apart from others we have stayed at is how truly clean it was. For a house that allows dogs it was remarkable. I would give the clean rating 10-stars if I could.

Wonderful Stay at Sona Tra
The home was beautiful and well appointed. Perfect location in a quiet spot of Arch Cape but close to Cannon Beach and Manzanita. Great customer service from Nannette at Starfish Rentals. We would definitely come back here again!

Beautiful property, perfect location, high quality all around
My husband and I stayed here in late September. The stay was wonderful, and we anticipate coming back to Sona Tra in the future. When we vacation, we want to feel the luxuries of home and then some. Sona Tra met every expectation. The highlights: LOCATION. The location is perfect. It was quiet, peaceful, and secluded. We had the beach to ourselves most of the time. It is in close proximity to Cannon Beach and Manzanita, so you still get the benefit of some shops, coffee, and food (our favorites were Manzanita News & Espresso and Sea Level in Cannon Beach). Sona Tra is also right next to Oswald West State Park (check out the tide pools). PROPERTY. The house and property were as described. The furnishings are higher end, and the property was very clean. It does have a few elements that are not updated, but are in impressively good shape. It still felt very clean. The pillows are to die for (I actually looked them up and purchased some for at home). I haven't slept that good for 3 years (which may be due to my toddlers, but I'm attribute at least 75% of it to the pillows). The kitchen is fully loaded (blenders, counter top mixer, and I think there was even an instapot/rice cooker). The best part by far though was the master bedroom. There is a balcony on one side looking inland and a balcony looking over the ocean. Both are stunning. (Keep in mind the master is upstairs and there is no door). PROPERTY MANAGMENT. The instructions we received were clear, access to the property was easy, and they checked in once we arrived to make sure everything was satisfactory. No complaints here. HIGHLIGHTS/SUMMARY. Hands down, we would come back to Sona Tra. We didn't bring the kids this time, but being in a less populated area, it would be a great location to bring them. The house is very kid friendly (we even noticed some gaming systems, lots of DVDS/kids books, etc.) It was also great for a couple's getaway.

What a view - what a house!
View was exemplary. The house was well equipped with a large living space for all guests The two balconies fro the master bedroom were lovely - especially the one with the view and the sound of the sea

Family fun
We had a Wonderful vacation at Sona Tra .. spending most of our days on the beach directly in front of the house. We were very happy with this property and would highly recommend.

Beautiful Beach View
Lovely remodeled home, great for our small family

Great week in this house!
Six of us spent this past week at this house....never stayed at Arch Cape and will definitely return....the house was very clean....well stocked kitchen....best mattresses we have slept on in a vacation rental home! Great location to beach.

- Donna A , Posted: 04/08/2019

Exceeded our expectations
A blissful four days ended too soon! The location alone makes this a magical spot - Arch Cape is a bit off the beaten path, away from the crowds at Cannon Beach, but close enough to Cannon Beach that it's easy to pop in for lunch, dinner, and groceries. The house itself is immaculate and very, very comfortable. We've had some less than stellar experiences at other properties recently, and are pretty picky, so this place was a welcome change. Aside from the location and crazy views, the house was just right. Did I mention I mention it was immaculate? It was also very well equipped - kitchen was well set up, and functional, wifi was excellent, towels galore, and the king bed upstairs was super comfortable. Property management was helpful, but unobtrusive. All in all, it was a perfect stay, and we hope to be back!

Perfect spot to sit and relax!
Very happy with this spot in Arch Cape. Away from the bustle of the city, right on the water, couldn’t ask for more! Thanks DK for another great stay!

Oregon Coast Weekend
We had a wonderful stay at Sona Tra, great location and cute beach house, the perfect size for our family.

Wonderful retreat at the ocean
Excellent property right on the beach in quiet Arch Cape. An older beach house that has been renovated and updated with high quality furnishings, bedding and kitchen supplies (Cuisinart, Breville, etc.). Great open space in main living area, nice separation with none of the 3 bedrooms right next to one another. Nice touches like a supply of puzzles, books (kids and adults), sand toys and beach chairs made it easy to just show up and relax. And the service was great - we took advantage of their grocery shopping service and appreciated the email after our first night checking in to see that we had everything we needed. Loved it!

Gorgeous ocean retreat!
Beautiful most amazing peaceful ocean retreat! Most amazing views in nearly every room. Comfy beds and furniture. Smart TV which was a nice touch. Well stocked kitchen with everything you need including some spices! Super peaceful and away from the crowds but close to shopping and other activities. We honestly did NOT want to leave. LOVED this place so much and look forward to going again..hopefully soon!
