This place is in need of a renovation. I don't think anything has been done to this property since it opened. When I came and got my room key I opened up the door and they haven't even cleaned the room pizza boxes on the floor unmade beds. I didn't even want to stay there after that

The room was incredibly clean, cozy, and comfortable, and also perfectly quiet. I absolutely loved the bookshelf full of books mounted above the beds in the room we stayed in (146) it gave such a relaxed, beachy vibe and truly elevated our trip. Having two restaurants connected to the hotel was extremely convenient, we had dinner at Nick’s and it was delicious, and being directly across from beach access made everything so easy. The outdoor pool was clean and adorable. It was too cold for us to get in, but we still loved it! There’s also a great setup in the back for kids, including life-size chess and a green space to play soccer. Breakfast each morning was phenomenal, and the staff were amazing, so kind and welcoming throughout our stay. 10/10 experience. We will absolutely be back and will be recommending this place to everyone!

This is the third time this has happened to me with Expedia. I book a hotel based on the information and photos provided on their platform, and the reality is completely false. When I arrive at the hotel, it is nothing like what is shown in the pictures. This particular hotel had a horrible smell starting right at the front desk, and the overall cleanliness was unacceptable. The parking area was under construction, and the pool was dirty and ridiculously small, nothing close to what was advertised. This is definitely the last time I will use Expedia to book hotels or flights. From now on, I prefer to book directly through the hotels’ official websites. Do not be misled by misleading photos and descriptions

I absolutely loved my stay at the Seaside Inn! I loved the view of the pool and the extra privacy of my room and balcony. My only concern was the palm trees that blocked sunrise. I know to get a room further down next time. Thank you for helping to make my NYE perfect.
