Loved the value and the location! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Close to the boat dock and everything you need. It's only 1 block from the only grocery store on the island, Von's! The room was small but cute & next door to the oldest house on the island. The area feels very safe and has a historic vibe. We enjoyed thoroughly.

I had a really nice stay at Seacrest Inn. The room was clean, comfortable, and had a peaceful vibe that made it easy to relax. The air conditioning worked well, and everything felt well-maintained. One of my favorite parts was the rooftop—the view is amazing and you can see the beach area, which made it such a nice spot to unwind and take everything in. The location is also a big plus, being so close to the beach and easy to get around. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and check-in/check-out was smooth. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back.

The Seacrest is an older building, and so we had a smallish room. The toilet space was cramped, making it difficult for us seniors to get in and out. The bed was comfortable however, and we didn't spend much time in the room anyway. The staff were polite and helpful, and allowed us to keep our bag in the office before check-in, and after we checked out. The rooftop patio was nicely furnished, and has an amazing view

The Seacrest Inn is an adorable hotel in Avalon. It’s a short walk from the ferry terminal and close to many restaurants in town. This historical hotel is very well maintained. The room was more spacious than we had anticipated and even had a small refrigerator and microwave. The shower and bathtub set up was unique, but we considered this part of the rooms charm. The rooftop provides great views of Avalon and the harbor - grab a bottle of wine and enjoy the sunset here!
