I have been going to LBI for over 40 years but this was our first time staying at the Sea Spray Motel. Our experience was positive. The rooms are spacious, the staff was very attentive, the pool is heated, and the location is great, with easy access to the beach.
My boyfriend and I love staying at the Sea spray. We have gone 3 times since the summer has started. The location is amazing and prices are fair. We love Trish, she is amazing and so accommodating. I hope they know how lucky they are to have her!! We usually rent a house down the road from the sea spray each August and we’ll be stopping by just to say hi to Trish! Def book there if you love the beach, fishing and an easy relaxing vacation!
We booked a room here by accident. Two hotels share a similar name on the island. When we arrived at the hotel the room stunk of stale cigarettes. Everything about the room was dated and did not give the cleanest vibes. After speaking with the front desk they were not able to accommodate a different room and refused to refund our money. We ended up eating the cost and finding a better hotel further up the Island.
Incredibly sad. We’ve been patrons of the Sea Spray for over twenty five years. Last year was the last year we will ever have come here. We won’t ever be back this place has gone progressively downhill for OUR tastes. ||||I used to come with my own family and then my mom and kids for the longest time. Prior to coming here we would frequent the B and Bs like Hydrangea House and Magnolia House. Eventually we moved on to Sea Spray once one of those was sold and closed. ||||The Sea Spray was always a welcoming fun spot. Heated pool; clean rooms; awesome grills; great beach access. Sure you have to drive everywhere but that’s LBI this ain’t a walkable beach town. You want that? You go to the Cape. If you want to boogie board and ride bikes and jog and walk and bird watch and do great long walks along the roads and great long surrey or bike rides this is your place. ||||We love going to Murphys and Kaplans and coming back to Sea Spray to grill up our dinner. And sit by the heated pool. Or play some ping pong. ||||But what the heck happened to this place?? Yes you got Anthony at the front desk. He’s nice and all a little emo but a cool kid for sure and mature and accommodating despite outward appearances give the kid a chance if he’s still there. He sure beats the crabby big guy who used to run the joint or the crabby ladies who used to run the front desk. ||||But what about these rooms?? Good lord. They reek of pine-sol. That doesn’t mean they are clean. If just means they reek of pine-sol like they are covering up the smell of mold and mildew (which is visible under the peeling wallpaper) -_- there’s actual holes in the wall bathroom wall. Wallpaper peeling. And get this baloney NO BLANKETS on the beds. What in the ever living free world?! Is this something new? Talk about new level of ghetto unlocked. I actually had to check with front desk on why there weren’t any bedspreads because I had a thought I hope they don’t try to accusing us of leaving with them at check out. Or something bizarre like that. Nope. No blankets said the front desk. Oh. Ok. That’s different. ||||Not to mention the smoking outside the rooms and the dude hocking up a lung at all hours of the night for hours and hours and hours right below my bathroom window. Patrons walking around cursing in front of our children and yelling at their own kids with their NY accents. Ugh. It felt trashy. The clientele is not our vibe. The pool police old dude squad is abrasive and off-putting. The bathroom sink water smells like sewer and the shallow tub fills with ankle deep water when you shower. |||| The place just felt dirty and unfriendly. I can’t put it into words or describe it. It’s just different here now. It’s not the same way it used to be. It doesn’t feel welcoming. It doesn’t feel cozy. It doesn’t feel special. It just had a really off vibe to it. We won’t be back. ||||We’ve found a cozier option down the road that’s got the fun upscale cheerful cozy vibes we need and we are good with that! So long sea spray thank you for all the great memories we made here. You were wonderful while it lasted. I hope y'all catch on someday to the cheerful clean bright aesthetic vibe that you need to have to survive beach town and ride those waves to success. You deserve it ol gal!
Another great stay at the Sea Spray motel. Really appreciated Trish at the front desk. Her friendly attitude and accommodating nature made our stay memorable.
The Sea Spray is located in a quiet area of Holgate. It is clean, has great staff, and a welcoming vibe. Our room was perfect for myself and my partner. We had an efficiency. We grilled twice, they clean the grills daily. The beach is across the street and the bay is on the other side. I used the pool twice, it's also clean with plenty of loungers and umbrella tables to sit at. They always asked if we needed anything and promptly provided fresh towels and supplies when asked. They are regularly cleaning the grounds so it looks pristine and neat. We came back this year after we experienced this last year and will return for 2 weeks next year. I cannot compliment them enough. Also, within walking distance are bike rentals, food and ice cream. Fantasy island is less then 2 miles away. Trish at the front desk was always ready to help with our questions and requests. We love The Sea Spray❤️😁👍👆😊
The Sea Spray Motel is exactly what my wife and I wanted for our return trip to the Jersey Shore. We were visiting friends for the 4th of July week from our home in South Carolina and their house was just a block away but full with their kids and grandkids. |Starting back in November of 2022, when I called to make our four night reservation, I instantly felt that this motel was going to be the right place to stay. Upon arrival in the late afternoon the new manager greeted us at the reception desk with a nice welcome. He helped me out with a couple of computer issues as well. Our room was perfect for a beach motel. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. And it was quiet! |The staff at this motel was so nice. I found myself chatting away with the ladies at the front desk. The cleaning people were very friendly as well and made sure the room was ready when we returned from the beach.|We highly recommend The Sea Spray Motel for a real Jersey Shore Getaway.|Thanks to everyone for making this a special trip for us.
absolutely terrible experience. dirty rooms, pool was drained (but no warning about that before arriving), bedding was not set out and was still damp when we checked in, staff were not available during posted hours. AVOID THIS PLACE!!!!!
Surprised this came up as a business to review, but beachfront in the off-season is just lovely and peaceful. Great for the dog's early morning walk as the sun comes up.
Great place for an Italian meal on Long Beach Island. The food came out so incredibly fresh that it took a couple minutes before I could even eat it. I highly recommend the penne alla vodka and the fried mozzarella. Both were incredible. This has bee
La Bamba is an absolute gem that has brought the vibrant flavors of Mexico to the shores of Long Beach Island. From the moment I walked in, I was transported by the lively and inviting atmosphere. The staff were not only friendly but also incredibly
