Sea View Inn

Quiet and peaceful, wonderful beach for nature lovers! Adjacent to a preserve there are no tall buildings in sight, just lots of sand, grasses and shrubs. Seeing the sea turtle tracks is amazing. My room (#5) was comfortable, spacious, clean and attractively decorated. I love the shower floor made with natural stones. The sound of the room air conditioner was a bit loud for me, but I am sensitive to noise so probably not a problem for others. Location is quiet but is close enough (7 min) to restaurants, take out pizza, and a Publix a half mile away. Kitchen is well stocked and I enjoyed the nice plates and glassware. The landscaping with flowers was pretty. The deck overlooking the beach with outdoor shower for rinsing off the feet made beach walks easy. I wished there was more shade on the deck for sitting, and overhead cover to keep the cushions dry from a rain. Diana is a pleasure to communicate with and obviously cares.

I’ve never slept so close to the ocean before! The beach was empty which was the most relaxing, peaceful part of our vacation. We loved going down to the beach in the evening and not hearing a single sound beside the ocean waves! How lucky can you be?! Will 100% be coming back. I can’t properly describe how lovely our stay was. It was amazing.

I had the pleasure of staying here and introducing Mom to the Atlantic Ocean for the first time. It was a great place to stay - clean, spacious and all the amenities were thought of. They were always available to us, through text, if we needed anything. We loved chatting with the others staying there and the direct access to the beach. Plus, the river and beach can both be seen from this little part of the island. Would recommend Sea View to anyone!

We booked the entire Inn for a songwriting retreat. There are not enough wonderful things I can say about Sea View. The manager Diana is AMAZING, so welcoming and accommodating to all your needs. She went above and beyond for us and a huge reason our retreat was such a success. You literally feel right at home as soon as you arrive. The rooms are updated and you can't beat the ocean views. While we were there we saw turtles nesting AND a rocket launch. Publix is only a mile away which was very convenient and the beach is secluded, which is hard to find in Florida. Would stay again and again. We actually can't wait to go back! Thank you so much Diana and Sea View for making this a trip we will never forget! -Suzy and Bryan

What a diamond in the ruff find!! This was the perfect place for a quiet get away! Diana and her staff do a great job making sure the place stays clean and running efficiently! If we needed anything it was provided for us. Diana is super friendly and provided us with some great restaurant suggestions! The beach was perfect to just sit and be, private and very quiet! Perfect, relaxing vacation spot! I’m ready to return!

Wonderful location on the ocean near a national wildlife refuge so felt like you had miles of beach to yourself. Staff was onsite and extremely attentive to any issues ; handled them promptly. The property manager actually came to my room in the early morning hours to show me how to use the coffee maker! The rooms are gorgeous and spotlessly clean when we arrived. For someone who travels extensively, I would highly recommend this rare gem and will definitely return.

The Beach is barefoot smooth, never saw more than a half dozen people on our daily 2 mile stretch, even on the nicest days. Diana kept everything running good, even on her busuist days with a full house. Amazing woman! Coming back this year we stayed another 10 days and didn't want to leave. We were in sea grape 4, new windows were added this year, great view of the ocean and listening to the surf all night is so wonderful. This is a flight of stairs up to second floor and was good for us. Grocery store 2 miles, we spent the whole vacation on the beach, so great to be able to just walk back up to your room when you're hungry. Thanks again Diana for all you do, so cheerfully!

Really, there aren’t enough stars to rate this little piece of Paradise. The minute you pull into this magical place you find a sense of peace and serenity and you know you are welcome here. There is a healing spirit here. Our room was spotless with all the amenities you need, and a property manager who makes you feel you’re home. Ocean surrounding you,with a quaint and comfortable deck where you can sit and watch the ocean while you drink your coffee. At night, beautiful small red lights glow around the deck so as not to disturb the turtles who visit below on their beach sanctuary. And the miracles begin on the beach…. we saw 4 mama turtles along the beach, coming and going, but the miracle for us came late in the night as we watched a mama turtle laying her eggs and building her nest. We saw this by the light of the moon. We watched for 2 hours and then she was ready to return to her ocean covered with sand. I know I’ve used a lot of words, but none can describe the joy of our visit or the magic of the Inn. See it for yourself for one of the most beautiful experiences of your life. That’s what it was for us. We will be back Diana- we are grateful for what you’ve created! Nina and Thom
