A luxurious accommodation for a reasonable price. We had ocean views from the top floor. Rooms had a feeling of luxury. Hotel is located within its own borders, we had dinner at the restaurant and walked around the area without needing to go to Eden. We stayed for 1 night.

The location is beautiful and the view from the room was uninterrupted of the bay water. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My only “disappointment” was the dinner dining. I was expecting something more elegant and special considering the cost of the rooms. We chose to eat outside- it was a gorgeous summer evening- and we had to order at the bar, get a buzzer and then go and pick up our food. If we had chosen to eat inside we would’ve still had to order at the bar but they would have brought the food to our table. The dining room inside didn’t have a great vibe or elegant feel to it that’s why we opted for outside.

The historic Seahorse Inn was a good stop on our road trip. We'd expected lodging and dining that was a bit more upscale for the price, but it was more than adequate and the location with an extensive beach is excellent. Note that upstairs room have no soundproofing, so you'll hear people in the restaurant and bar below at the back amd people in the lobby at the front until later in the evening.

A nice hotel in beautiful surroundings and stunning views over Two Fold Bay. Easy check in and a pretty room...we had room 7 in the hotel....lovely but quite small. The room and bathroom was all nice and clean. Our evening meal was tasty, friendly enough staff and a nice glass of wine in the bar/lounge area. The continental breakfast is served in your room which we found a little odd as there is a lovely dining area in the hotel. We decided to eat it on the balcony as there was a table and chairs out there so we could enjoy the beautiful views though the balcony area could do with a bit of work and a good clean. Apart from that we had a good night at The Seahorse Inn and Villas.
