My family had a wonderful experience! The staff was extremely courteous, polite, knowledgeable and full of wonderful recommendations. One side note bring your own soap if you plan to bath because what’s offered is more of a gesture than something functional.

Nice place, comfortable bed, shower was good and location is perfect. We stayed on the second floor and there is a peak a boo view of the ocean. There was a stain on the curtain but the room was clean besides that. Thanks for the stay!

Overall the place isn't bad. Their door locks could be improved as there is no deadbolt. One of the windows is missing a screen but overall the staff was nice and the area is close to beach and pier.

I booked a spontaneous same day stay, and I was not disappointed! I’m so thankful they are pet friendly, I had a cute little room on the second floor with a view. The room was clean, the location is walkable to the beach, the staff were very kind, friendly, informative, and helpful! All to say, my stay at seaway inn was very pleasant and I definitely recommend!
