This hotel was a great value. The room was comfortable and clean, the front desk was very friendly and helpful, and the location is literally right on the beach. I went in the off-season so it was very quiet. Each night also includes a breakfast voucher for a full breakfast at the Jolly Roger restaurant down the street - scrambled... more

We stayed here for two nights. Good wifi, great view, large rooms, clean. We enjoyed this property much more then the Days Inn next door. A great view of the beach, and a very good restaurant down stairs on the beach, "The Pearl". Better then most alternatives in the area. more

We stayed at the Sea Ranch again this year and as usual everything went smoothly. The staff is the best of the best; they made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. We will defiantly be going back again next year. more

We just returned from visiting the outerbanks. We stayed 2 nights at the sea ranch as AAA book had given it good rating. We were disappointed upon arrival as half of the building (the timeshare side) looks abandoned and as if it needs to be torn down. Not sure what the status is on it. The hotel side did not... more

The Sea Ranch is an older beach motel and parts of the exterior could use some sprucing up. However, our room was clean and updated, but the bathrooms could use a little more work. The staff was friendly and helpful. They have an indoor pool that faces the street side and it was clean and cared for. I found it... more

The location of the hotel is awesome. It is such a shame they don't fix it up/keep it up. It could be amazing. I loved the oceanfront view and that you could sleep to the sounds of the ocean. That was about it. The room wasn't clean - stains on carpet, walls, wallpaper coming down, bathroom dirty. I wanted to... more

The Sea Ranch is a great place to stay if you want wonderful ocean front views. We stayed three nights on the third floor in a very clean, nonsmoking room that was nicely decorated with brightly colored bedspreads and beach art work. The separate glass balcony with two chairs and a small table faces the ocean and has two sliding... more

We first stayed at the Sea Ranch, in October 2005. It had been 20 years since we had been to the ocean. The balcony was glass enclosed, with windows that would open. From the 3rd. floor the ocean looked like it was coming up under the motel. I could sit there for hours to watch the ocean. Even saw a... more

We booked a room for three nights but left after just one. Seems the hotel is being turned into time shares so one side of the hotel is redone and uptodate, while the other has little or no upkeep. There was a distinctive lack of quality about the whole place. The unrestored side of the building is showing it age... more

Our family stayed in a third floor oceanfront room with two queen beds, plus a roll-away bed. The room was large, and had a wonderful glass-enclosed balcony overlooking the ocean and Avalon Pier. Everything in the room appeared new and clean. The room smelled fresher than my own home. The beds were very comfortable. The room came with an iron... more
