Great location
This was our second stay here. The location is perfect. You can't beat the price, especially for the view. Love that I am able to bring my dog, as well. She loves the beach as much as I do!

Solid choice
The Sea Vista Motel is a venerable but comfortable choice if you are looking for a quiet, right on the beach stay. You must be prepared for the limitations of the far south end of Topsail Island. Be prepared to self cater as the grocery and dining options are slim.

Would not stay here again
The location was great in the aspect that it was a quiet area but also a pain being 20 minutes away from any store. There was mold in the shower that my wife cleaned herself. There was supposed to be some kind of surface to cook on but there was not one in this room. The beds were very uncomfortable. We left a day early.

You can watch the sunrise from bed. :-)
Great waking up to a view of the beach. The room had everything we needed. Check-in and check-out process was very easy. A great option if you're looking for a pet-friendly, ocean-front stay.

So peaceful! Dark so easy to sleep with oceanfront waves to lull you to sleep!
Wonderful to have full size fridge/freezer! Only 2 comments nail headboards to wall and toaster ovens great for week long stays.

Perfect Ocean Front experience
We loved our stay. The Ocean was right in front of us, very nice room as it was described. Loved dining on the porch with food from very good surrounding restaurants. We will stay again, even though the beds needed upgrading and sheets were a bit scratchy.
