Another amazing stay!

This was our second time staying at the Sea Vista motel and it once again did not disappoint! The room was clean, the staff was friendly, the beach was amazing. We love it there so much and so do our dogs. Such a truly amazing and peaceful place.

We were in Topsail recently scouting out spots for a future vacation and found this hidden gem there. Sea Vista is the perfect spot for a beach vacation. Very relaxed, great ocean views for the sunrise. The beach was very clean and quiet, just steps from the hotel. The motel itself was rustic and a great sandy beach vibe. They have outdoor showers as well! A quick ride to Surf City to stock up on supplies. We met some very friendly neighbours and the staff was very welcoming. This is a place we will come back to next time we are in NC. If you like the beach, you will love this area.

Outstanding stay at this establishment! If you’re looking for Marriot or Hilton this place isn’t for you. Simple, old school accommodations, but very clean and welcoming and best of all right on the beach with everything you need. Will definitely return!!

This is such a great little place! You can’t get closer to the beach than this- it’s extremely dog-friendly (we were able to bring our own dog, plus get to enjoy lots of others also!)- the room is the perfect size to be comfortable, and has all you would need! •A private beach access is provided (be mindful that there are stairs to access the beach) •The room was clean and had all basics provided (we brought a small electric griddle to cook, but there is a hot plate provided, as well as cookware) •The view from the balcony is AMAZING! •The staff are all very personable and friendly- they make you feel comfy as soon as you get there We definitely recommend a stay here!

What a nice little hidden gem! We really enjoyed our stay and loved that it was pet friendly! The motel is a no-frills motel and there is no pool - BUT you cannot beat the gorgeous ocean view from the rooms. It's right there on the beach and it was a perfect stay. Everyone we encountered was very friendly and we can't wait to come back again!

The motel was quiet. Extremely dog friendly. The rooms were very clean, updated, The mattresses in room #316 were very firm. Too firm for me but my husband loved it. Beautiful view of the ocean from the room. Nice balcony with comfy chairs. Good water pressure. Topsail is a beautiful beach. The southern end is quiet. There is a small grocery store down the street, ice cream parlor, outfitters store, restaurant, the Jolly Roger pier is walking distance.
