Both the front desk and cleaning staff was very friendly and beyond nice in making our stay as pleasant and possible. Both the hotel’s main areas and rooms were very clean, nicely decorated. The beds were very comfortable. We had a great stay.

Sea Ranch Resort
Had an unplanned overnight stay at the beach after a motorcycle breakdown. Staff was super friendly, good food in the restaurant and the room was clean and smelled good. Weather was terrible, but the hotel more than made up for the drama we had to deal with!

I loved my oceanfront view. I watched the sunrise every morning. Short walk to Jennette’s Pier. Great location close to Fresh Market grocery store and other restaurants. The staff was very accommodating.
