Overview

The Sea View Inn is a solid budget property that sells what it advertises; clean, contemporary accommodations just two blocks from the water. The hotel attracts vacationing families and couples that want to be close to the beach in an area that’s less touristy than other beachside neighborhoods.

Situated in greater LA’s laid-back South Bay, The Sea View Inn presents an ocean view and a beach just four blocks away. The property sits along Highland Ave, which offers a few restaurants and leads to the surf-friendly area of El Porto. The popular Manhattan Beach Pier, shops, and restaurants are a mile away, while a scenic five-minute drive leads to bonfire-friendly Dockweiler Beach. Other scenic drives will lead to Redondo Beach Pier, iconic Santa Monica Pier and Venice Beach.

There are few extra thrills offered at the inn that include free parking, free WiFi, a few common spaces, and a heated outdoor pool. Sea View also offers guests freebies such as borrowing cruiser bikes, boogie boards, and beach items like chairs, towels, umbrellas, and kids’ toys.

The 37 rooms and apartments at the inn are clean, spacious, and beachy. All rooms feature comfortable bedding, mini-fridges, flat-screen TVs, coffeemakers, and air-conditioners and ceiling fans. Many of the apartments feature large living and dining areas, separate bedrooms, furnished balconies with sea views, kitchenettes, or even fully equipped kitchens.

Sea View Inn at the Beach is in a friendly neighborhood that often gets books by travelers looking for a less touristy area and a laid-back atmosphere. The inn offers travelers the bonus of perfect views and affordable prices.

Anonymous, Aug 2017
Pros (+) I like the pool area was clean. The staff was friendly. The shower water pressure was strong! The room decor was cute without being over the top. The bed and pillows were comfy. The location was great, walkable to beach and restaurants.
Cons (-) I would have liked some coffee in my room. There was a coffee maker and filters, but no coffee! I also wish there were beach towels in the room, I could not find any.
