Loved the value and the location! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Close to the boat dock and everything you need. It's only 1 block from the only grocery store on the island, Von's! The room was small but cute & next door to the oldest house on the island. The area feels very safe and has a historic vibe. We enjoyed thoroughly.

Room was nice, staff was nice, great location, rooftop was awesome. Only drawback was the loudness of the constant golf carts driving by, however that applies to pretty much any where you stay on the island

I had a really nice stay at Seacrest Inn. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a peaceful vibe that made it easy to relax. The air conditioning worked well, and everything felt well-maintained. One of my favorite parts was the rooftop—the view is amazing and you can see the beach area, which made it such a nice spot to unwind and take everything in. The location is also a big plus, being so close to the beach and easy to get around. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and check-in/check-out was smooth. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back.

The Seacrest is an older building, and so we had a smallish room. The toilet space was cramped, making it difficult for us seniors to get in and out. The bed was comfortable however, and we didn't spend much time in the room anyway. The staff were polite and helpful, and allowed us to keep our bag in the office before check-in, and after we checked out. The rooftop patio was nicely furnished, and has an amazing view
