Highly recommend for a relaxing stay

The place looks like it’s been refurbished and it’s terrific. Sea view room(11) is great, close to pool, restaurant and beach (though not very swim able due to rocks that we saw on low tide.) Pool is terrific. Service great a about a half hour grab ride into KK. Highly recommend for a laid back stay. We extended our original 2 day stay to 6.

Just beautiful location and friendly place to stay

We have been going here for 7 years. The pool is fun, the beach is nice; when the tide goes out you can find thousands of starfish. The restaurant is good. They have been in business for a long time, and the place is a little run-down but the people are friendly, the location is spectacular, and our boys just love the pool and the sand.

Exactly like the name of this place. Seaside. And, it gives home-like feeling. There's alot of stuff can be done here (swimming, basketball, ping pong, dart, etc) but I didnt have the time, too bad. The only setback is the old furniture smell that in our room. But it's not too bad though, feels like we own the room ahaha. That's all from me. Thanks for the service STI.

Sit back and relax, The Seaside Traveller's way.

This is the second time I've stayed here, once in 2008 and now in 2016, both times I've left thinking what a special place this is, first of all there's the incredible view of Dinawan and several other islands including in the distance Manatuk and Gaya islands of the local marine park, then there's the friendly staff who genuinely seem happy to see you and the family history that is woven into the place, oh and an awesome pool to boot, oh and amazingly friendly cats, the list goes on. This is not a five star hotel, it's a family run B&B with a view to die for and awesome staff, yes there are imperfections but on my last trip I stayed here and the five star Sama Sama in KL and I can honestly say I would choose this place over anywhere else without hesitation. The motto for The Seaside Traveller's Inn is "Sit back and relax", trust me you won't have a choice but to 😎👍
