What a beautiful little hideaway! Our stay was amazing - lovedddd the heated pool! The beach, souvenir shops, and a variety of restaurants were within 10-15 minutes walking distance. I would absolutely love to stay again the next time I plan a vacation in treasure island :)

Great location across from the public beach, very clean “retro” room, The bed could have been firmer , not to my liking. We needed a room for 1 night so we did not use the pool but it looked delightful. We would stay again.

The Sea Jay Motel was the best location and one of the best finds our family during spring break! We were able to walk everywhere including the beach! There was ample space for our family of four and the new renovated pool was amazing! We will definitely look into staying here again when we return to Treasure Island/St. Pete’s Beach area!

Location. cleanliness and the friendly staff are strong points, however. the room set up and condition (age) was not good. Paying $250+ a night for a place like this is too much, perhaps $150-175 is more reasonable.

The property was great! The bed I slept in was very comfortable. The staff was excellent and as well as the amenities. I borrowed a bike for free and rode around. The pool is heated and there are some pool toys to play with like noodles and floaties. The beach is one block away so you can walk. There is a view of the Intercoastal since the hotel is on it.

Lovely stay at this retro mid-century motel. Very clean and exactly as depicted in the photos online. No frills, but really nice place to stay. Kitchen was a plus wonderful comfortable bed. Very short, walk to a beautiful and expensive beach. Numerous restaurants in walking distance. Safe location with exterior cameras as a plus. We would definitely stay here again if visiting the area.
