Thank you to the hosts, who made my brief visit easy and care free. I was made to feel welcome, had a good night’s rest and a great shower in the morning. I wish I was able to stay longer…. So I will return in the near future. 👍👍

The managing staff were accommodating and friendly. The room was beautifully clean and comfortable. The location is perfect for walking and dining to shopping experiences. They are undergoing some renovations which should enhance the property as well.

Thanks Owen, so very happy that you enjoyed your stay at the South Seas. We love that we are walking distance to everything, best location in town, not that we are biased! We are looking forward to our pool and pool deck renovation to open. You’ll have to come back in summer to check it out.Sally

Stayed for a single night Pleasant reception staff who were busy with increased demand with local conference. Not unpleasant but perhaps more suitable for affordable business purposes
