We had an amazing stay at Seawatch, which felt like a true home away from home. The views from our oceanfront balcony were spectacular, and having multiple pools to choose from added to the fun. However, one downside was a few dated furnishings in the rooms, which could use an update. The location was perfect, combining a sense of seclusion with easy access to shops and dining options nearby.

Our stay at this resort was absolutely delightful! The oceanfront balcony provided us with stunning views and easy access to multiple pools, which was fantastic for our family. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, making it feel like a tropical paradise. However, we found the dining options to be somewhat limited this visit, especially since we didn't dine there this time. Overall, a wonderful place for families looking to enjoy some quality time together right by the beach.

I had an amazing time at SeaWatch with my girlfriends! The activities were so much fun and kept us entertained every day. The breakfast was incredible, but I did hear a concern from another guest regarding a potentially fraudulent charge after their stay, which is something to keep in mind. Overall, I truly enjoyed my stay and would recommend it for a fun getaway.
