We had such a nice stay and for the price this place was amazing! The only thing I can say is getting up and down the giant hill to the beach was a challenge, it is very steep and would be difficult for small children or elderly! However, the beds were clean and comfortable and the air conditioner worked great!

We loved staying in this area of Manhattan Beach, and Sea View Inn is a hidden gem. Since it is tucked away in Bruce’s Beach, it is quiet but a wonderful walk to downtown Manhattan Beach.

I really loved the view of the ocean from the balcony. It would be better if the pool towels were at the pool. Also the bikes had back peddle brakes instead of external brakes they also had a very heavy steel frame without gears. The staff was very helpful and pleasant.

We enjoyed staying in this quaint motel. It felt like a step back in time. We had a standard ocean view room. It was clean and they even had Charmin toilet paper. We took advantage of the free bikes and had a great ride to Redondo Beach. Close restaurants and close to the beach and strand. We would definitely stay there again!
