Location is ideal. The price can’t be beat. The check in process is a little odd as I was looking for the office upon arrival, but otherwise a great little place to stay

The place was in a great area! Close to the beach and some great local businesses! The parking was not ideal as it is very small. It was frustrating when one unit had more than one vehicle and took more than one spot. They advertise a smart tv but all of the apps were locked up so you couldn’t access your Netflix etc and could only watch cable. Cable was fine for us but don’t advertise a smart tv if it’s locked up and unable to be accessed. Overall a fabulous stay!! We would return!

Thanks for the hospitality!

Renovated motel, they did an excellent job revamping. We loved our room & the location. Check-in was convenient, communication was on point. Loved our kitchenette & the little things for example, k-cups & bottled water. We enjoyed our stay & will book here again for next stay!

See Sea was even nicer than we expected. The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable. We loved the small but well equipped kitchen (although it needs a spatula and more coffee cups) and it was nice to have a couch and table for four for meals and games. Very convenient to the beach and several great restaurants. Would definitely recommend!

This was such a cute little spot! The beach was a quick walk. There were several restaurants that were a minute walking distance. The rooms were extremely clean. Super easy check in and check out… i didn’t even have to talk to anybody, i was just emailed my room # and key code. 10/10 will definitely stay here again

Great place for an awesome price.

The establishment was clean, cute decor and quiet. Directly across the beach and a short one block walk to public access. No need for a car. Clean pool and great lounge chairs. Cleaning people bring you towels everyday.

This was our first stay at See Sea Motel and we will be back! Right across from a beach access so we could walk over and spend the day. The room was clean, check in/out was easy. Loved the fact we didn’t have to go in to a lobby, they sent a text with the door code…it was very convenient!!!!
