Our two night stay at the Sea Shore Motel was perfect for our family of five. Our room had a bedroom, a pullout couch and a full kitchen and was very clean. The property is in within walking distance to Venice Beach and the Santa Monica Pier as well as many restaurants and shops.

Had an awesome experience staying at this location. We were able to have free parking for our rental and walk to everything in Santa Monica and Venice beach. A 5 min walk to the beach. Rooms were comfortable and front desk was kind and accommodating when we left something after checkout. Will stay here again our next trip to CA

We enjoyed our stay here; this super cute, quaint motel is right in the middle of everything. ( piers and beaches)They even let you use chairs and boogie boards at no cost. There's a wonderful bakery next door, Bread and Butter, that we went to daily. Would definitely stay here again. Traveled with my two girls 11 and 13.

So close to the beach and less than 10 minute walk to Santa Monica Pier. The location is accessible to everything, fast food, gourmet food and goodies. There is activity outside until in the early am, since it’s a popular spot to hang out, but safe.
