Great sunrise view
The stay was great! People were great! Dog friendly. Room had great view for sunrise and Dolphins swimming with perfect access to the beach. The only thing I would change is the bed, woke up sore but overall would definitely sty again.

Disappointed :-(
Our room was infested with flies. We killed 14 flies in the 14 hours that we were there. Also, there was no smoke detector in the room. Apparently, the previous guest took it with them :-( For the price I paid, I expected better.

Wonder Accommodations!
I would like to say, my stay at The Sea Vista was GREAT! I had a king room on the 3rd floor, and it was very spacious, clean and comfortable. They provided all the essentials I needed for the bathroom. I loved the balcony overlooking the beach and ocean! This was my favorite part of my stay!
Kathy was amazing and very accommodating. I am definitely going to make a return visit to TopSail Beach and the Sea Vista Motel!

Mini Vacation
We had a great 3 day trip to the Sea Vista. When they ocean front they really mean it. Best and closest view I’ve ever had. Just a few steps to the beach and the ocean. Ocean City is close by for restaurants etc. Toosail don’t have many. Beach is very clean.

We had an amazing 2 night stay! We loved the room & especially the balcony. Of course being able to stay right on the beach was fantastic. We did run into a couple issuers but we were able to make do. The TV remote needed batteries & the lamp in between the 2 beds couldn't be turned on. The switch was broken. My son loved having the coffee maker. Creamer & sugar would be a great added touch since he does not drink it black. Also it’s a bit difficult to wash dishes in a little bathroom sink. I was so scared I was going to break one smashing it against the side of the tiny sink. I assumed the dishes were taken somewhere to be washed & then retuned until I saw it was $25 if they weren’t washed by me. I always wash my dishes regardless but there is usually a kitchen sink or dish washer. Just one more recommendation: an ice maker for the property. I was told it was available to purchase but the office wasn’t open when I realized the fridge wasn’t getting my drinks cold enough. Overall we had a wonderful stay & would book again.

Staying here is like dating a really hot guy. He is so sexy and beautiful and turns you on. But he knows it and so he acts like a jerk and treats you badly.
Great place. Terrible service. They don’t even open the office. And there are snarky signs everywhere. Telling you not to ask any questions. And leave the staff the heck alone.
