My husband and I were driving to WA state after visiting my in laws in CA. We ended up spending our anniversary day with them so I was a little bummed since it was our 5 year anniversary.
I met my husband in a video game (Final Fantasy 14) and we have been on an irl adventure ever since, traveling as much as possible. Knowing that it’s something we always do, and yet didn’t plan for our anniversary, made us both feel pretty bad.
Last minute, we decided to stop by Cannon Beach. We chose the Hallmark Resort for the ocean views from the suite. They’re magical and gorgeous!
When we got to the resort, (we had stopped at Tillamook) it was nearly 7pm. We were trying to rush and make it to check in and a quick dinner before everything closed. The staff had fresh made cookies waiting and greeted us, giving us a lot of great suggestions. I think what was most memorable and unforgettable was that when we entered our suite, there was a souvenir wine bottle with sand and shells in it and a happy anniversary card. The card stated they had an amenity for us in the fridge, which was champagne. We were so pleasantly surprised. I took so many photos and it really lifted our spirits. We were a day late to celebrate, but the staff and their thoughtful gift saved the day and gave us a memorable and unforgettable stay. I had briefly mentioned it was a last minute stay for us over the phone and didn’t really think too much of it. The fact that staff remembered and made this gesture was amazing.
