I really enjoyed visiting two summers ago but this fall, the property appeared abandoned. There was one guy with a truck who may have been watching over the property, but I wasn’t sure. My third night, I looked up and saw a guy with a gray sweater and blond hair watching me from the second floor of the building next door. There was a disturbance, a loud sound of hammering or repairs in one of the rooms a couple doors down at 1am. I called the emergency number saying I wasn’t sure that it was an emergency but that the noise disturbed me, No one called back. I won’t visit in the fall again, but would be willing to try again in the summer. The property managers were helpful on the phone when I had questions about the coded door lock.

Parking not easy. Fortunately we stayed during the off season so not many vehicles to maneuver around. Staff over the phone were very polite and helpful.

We just stayed at See Sea October 18th-20th 2024 for a last minute quick trip from Elizabeth city. Great price, we thought it was too good to be true. Wrong!! We had a wonderful stay. The room was very clean, plenty of parking and right across the street from a public beach access site. 2 minute walk to some shops and Target is only a couple of minutes down the road. We didn’t have any issues and I believe it was just us and 2 other families there so it was quiet. The appliances all worked. Tv was great. We loved the outside grill access and picnic tables. We will definitely be staying here again in the future. It didn’t feel like a motel, and we feel like it was way better than any hotel on the strip.

It was great the only thing I’d say is there were bugs here and there (gnats mostly) and the room felt kind of sticky due to the way the air conditioning is and the proximity to the ocean.

I loved how the property was easily accessible to public beach access. The pool was clean and so was are room( we stayed in standard king). Not sure if this is standard procedures as we have never stayed in a motel but there were no towels given for shower and the floor got wet from the shower. Seems dangerous and likely easily water damage. Our room was connect to another room by what looked like a closet door so it was NOT quiet. We could hear everything in their room and Vice Versa. The coffee kurieg was a great touch but then the little styrofoam cups they gave us didn’t even fit the only setting provided on the machine. Causing overflow and coffee everywhere. Otherwise great for the one night we stayed and would recommend the place for someone who was looking for a short stay in the outer banks!

Not great, but not bad.
Pretty good stay. Room was way smaller than I thought it’d be. TV was not working with a strong signal so channel would cut every five seconds. Check-in was a little weird because it was just some guy in an office the size of a walk in closet coming in and out. Guy was nice though! No problem there. Would I stay again? Probably, depending on which room I get to stay in! Oh, and please invest in a decent office. This poor guy is working in a shoe closet!
