This is the old fashioned style that most people miss out on. The way things used to be. Very retro and quirky. The Sea Foam is in a great location and the beach is wonderful. The staff is very nice and accomodating. Good folks. Will definitely return. More

I have stayed at the Seafoam twice now, and both times I enjoyed it completely. Yes, it's a little worn down, but the fact remains that it's very inexpensive (esp compared to the Big Shiny Namebrand Hotel right down the road) and incredibly well-located. Not only does the motel have a good stretch of beach all to itself, but it's... More

My family has been staying at the Sea Foam for about 12 years now. We go every June as a family and my husband and I go back several times during the summer and fall. No, it's not elaborate and it is dated, but we don't go to the beach for glitz and glamor. We go to relax and the... More

We spent two nights here in early September before our rental house was available. This motel is nothing fancy, but it's clean, has a very nice pool and is oceanfront in a great location. Owens Restaurant is right across the street, Sam and Omies is just down the street along with Cahoons Grocery. More

Price for the poolside should be $45.00 a night, instead of $113.00!! SeaFoam Motel is so outdated! It's very very retro and the parking is awful!! We would sit up on the weak balcony and (pray it wouldn't collapse) waiting for someone to pull out so we could park. We usually had to park on the street! No elevator, so... More

We loved staying here. It was one of the more affordable hotels we considered. It was very clean and nice, and checkin/checkout was easy. It's right on the beach, which is awesome. We had our own oceanfront balcony. It was really nice. Our room was very clean and comfortable, but I think they would draw in more business if they... More

My co-worker and I stayed at the Sea Foam Motel last week. It could use some "home improvements" but the staff was so nice and friendly and hands down that was the cleanest pool I have ever been in. More

Can not beat the location of this motel! Right, right, right on the beach. Can hear the surf through your door for the ocean front rooms. The 2 minute commute from your room to the surf can NOT be beat. Room very clean. Incredibly clean (was leery based on some other reviews) but our room was very tidy. Certainly a... More

The Sea Foam Motel provided my wife and I the perfect home base for our recent trip to the Outer Banks. Located at Milepost 16.5 near the intersections of NC 12, US 158 and US 68, this small yet homey motel was convenient to restaurants, shops, and activities. I would strongly recommend the Sea Foam to anyone looking for an... More
