Located on the marina . The room was lovely. the bed was sooo comfortable. the room had many windows to see the water and bridge. My room was at the front so it had space to be outside and drink coffee while looking at the boats. It wa svery calm and peaceful. The room had amenities such as hair blower, wine opener, and refrigerator. Breakfast was upstairs and had a sitting room at the back of the boat. They also do happy hour there. The staff was wonderful. The suprised me with a cupcake and balloons for my birthday.

Highly recommend
We absolutely loved our one night stay on the Newport Belle. Brandon was an excellent host who welcome us on board, served delicious canapés, introduced us to an “Old Fashioned” during happy hour and served a delicious breakfast in the morning. We had room 4 which was very comfortable and quiet with lovely views.

Recommended based on the innkeeper alone.
The Newport Belle B&B is already a unique place, but the reason the stay stood out was Brandon. He runs the inn with a level of calm, steady competence that you notice right away. Nothing feels rushed. Nothing feels forced. He has that rare mix of being personable, attentive, and completely natural about it. You can tell he takes pride in the place without ever making it about himself. Brandon set the tone for the entire stay. He made check in easy. He offered good recommendations without trying to sell anything. He checked in at the right moments and then gave space when it was needed. It felt like staying with someone who understands hospitality as a craft instead of a script. Frost and Lida followed his lead. They were kind, thoughtful, and genuinely enjoyable to talk to. They backed up everything Brandon set in motion. The three of them created an atmosphere that felt warm and relaxed in a way that is hard to fake. The rooms were clean. The breakfasts were solid. The setting was peaceful. All of that mattered, but the staff made the stay memorable. It was good enough that we decided to stay an additional night without hesitation. If you want a place where the experience is shaped by people who actually care about the work, the Newport Belle B&B is worth your time. I would return without a second thought.

Unique experience, would stay here again. Highly recommend.
We stayed 3 nights on the Newport Belle Riverboat Bed & Breakfast in July 2025 while traveling along the Oregon coast. We were welcomed aboard by Paige (the owner) and Brandon (the manager). Our cabin was on the upper deck, where we had a wonderful view of the marina and bridge. The room was charming with its nautical theme. Everything onboard is decorated with a nautical theme and you can tell a lot of thought went into the designs. There is a main level common area where guest can relax, with chairs and couches available. Here you can have the included breakfast and enjoy the nightly happy hour offered by the Belle. The breakfasts were very good, with both a sweet and a savory option, varying daily. We enjoyed chatting with other guests during the happy hour. Brandon was very nice and was able to let us know of local sites and recommend restaurants. Should we ever be in the area in the future, we would not hesitate to stay here again. Hospitality at its finest! Highly recommend.
