It was a good place to stay my sister and I felt safe staff was friendly and very helpful, the only downside is you could smoke anywhere on property except in your rooms you could even by your doors outside , being we don’t smoke it was a turn off when you walk outside and many are smoking by there doors
We spent a 5 night family vacation at Beachside. We had a great experience and a wonderful stay. Would book again if ever in the Amelia Island area.

Proximity to the beach. Room had an adequate supply of equipment, minus teaspoons. Beds were comfy with 4 good sized pillows. The only downside was there are no net curtains so everyone walking past looked in so we had to keep the curtains closed making it dark. There was a good supply of snacks at reception and coffee. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
We had an excellent stay. The staff was friendly and accomodating. The grounds were clean as was the pool. our room was great and the location on the beach was super.
This property is an incredible value. It certainly has some age on it, but it's super clean and so very convenient to the beach. There's also a lovely beachside pool. The price can NOT be beat. I love the old Florida vibe. Wonderful restaurant just across the road too.
I travel frequently and I can say I was little hesitate booking a motel. I have only stayed at a motel 2 times in my adult life. I chose the Beachside Motel bc it had a pool and it had direct beach access. I can say I enjoyed my weekend stay at the property. It was clean and accommodating and quiet and check in was amazing and easy…I highly recommend booking this property if your looking for something quaint, quiet and direct beach access. I will def be using then again.
Staff was very nice. Stayed 5 days in balcony room. No microwave, definitely a motel as listed. Small and kinda cramped for a family of 5. Bathroom is very small. Knees touch door if using restroom. Ac worked great, beds were comfortable. Did kill some bugs but staff was very concerned when I told them. (Cockroach and spider). I would stay again if I can find a better price than $1500.
Beachside Motel is just simply awesome. The rooms are clean, updated with great beds and bedding and the rooms smell clean when you walk in. It is super close to the beach and the pool by the beach is awesome too. Fresh coffee in the lobby with snacks is nice too. We will definitely return. A hidden gem in the heart of Amelia Island !!
We have stayed at many different places over the last 25 years and this is our favorite. First time and it will not be the last. Everything was Perfect and everyone was So friendly and helpful.
The room was perfect and it was just a very very short walk to the beach. I’m right across the street from the hotel was an amazing restaurant so many things that I love were right all together.
Staff was wonderful! The room was decent….carpet was dirty, room smelled very musty, water only came out of about 12 holes in the shower head, bed squeaked every time you moved, pillows very lumpy, tv remote didn’t work (staff fixed next day)…tight parking mostly suitable for average cars (we drive a lifted truck)! Pros are it’s centrally located to most anything, the pool was nice and very close to the beach! Housekeeping brought towels everyday and made bed!
It was great, we love this motel, it’s easy to get to, has parking on site, and is clean! All the ladies at the front desk are lovely, but Debbie was especially helpful. Would definitely recommend this place!
The only complaint I have about Seaside Motel was the small and outdated flat screen TV in the room. The motel was renovated several years ago, and the the rooms, grounds and pool area are very well maintained. The entire staff was very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again!
