Wonderful experience at Sea Vista in Topsail!

Friendly staff, clean spacious rooms, beautiful beachfront views, and a plus that we could bring our furry family!

We'll be back!!

The staff is wonderful. The room was the cleanest I've seen when visiting a hotel, Verbo or rental....ever! The motel is a short walking distance to the shore which includes your little private back porch, rocking chairs included. The room is fully supplied with pretty much everything you need, and the motel was very quiet, we had guests next door and around us and barely heard them. Plus, and most importantly, they allow dogs!!

Very clean and very well maintained! Although the rooms are non smoking the people that stayed in the room previously must have not followed those rules as the room smelled strong of smoke once arriving. This was the only issue with our stay as everything else was great. Will stay again!

Quiet and Lowkey Beach Getaway

Check-in was a bit confusing as we did not receive gate code ahead of time and it was an unexpected hurdle. Room was spacious and clean, no complaints and view cannot be beat. Porch/decks are huge, rooms are quiet, as were guests (and dogs). Beds were moderate, only complaint would be one was very noisy when turning over or getting up, and the pillows were pretty flat and only 4 total. Nothng would prevent us from staying here in the future. Fair Warning: Bring your own food supplies as options are beyond slim and delivery 60-75 minutes minimum.

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 stayed in the HMS which is the penthouse room. The best part was that we had privacy on our balcony as we drank coffee, listened to the waves and watched the dolphins each morning. The beach is not crowded and you can walk around the end of the island to the sound side as well. The room was clean and had a kitchen with everything you need. The bed was comfy. The people were so nice. I dropped a few things on my way out. They called me and mailed them back right away.
