The staff were very understanding when I explained that my elderly husband needed a bit more time to vacate the room. (We didn't abuse their good will.) Clean, pleasant room, tidy grounds, good location.

Stayed for 2 nights. As soon as i walked in to reception, i was greeted with the best customer service and at check out. By far the best stay my partner and i both had,as its not often there is an electric blanket for those cold nights which was awesome. We Stayed in the studio room with a stovetop and a good size fridge and kitchen which we were really happy about and a car park right outside the room. Would definately stay at Seahorse motel again.

Seahorse Motel was easy to get to, close to main street but quiet. It was well maintained with clean, modern facilities, one outstanding features from my perspective, was the water pressure was amazing with PLENTY of hot water! The staff were very friendly and accommodating.
