My family trip to the sea jay was excellent it’s the coolest little beach motel the rooms are clean the staff is friendly food and beach within walking distance. The pool was nice and refreshing and the small fishing pier was fun fishing with my son. Treasure island was hit hard by a storm last year but this place is resilient and it’s a wonderful place to visit with beautiful beaches and people. I would definitely recommend the Sea Jay and I would recommend a trip to treasure island florida

Nice place to stay but pool closes too early

All in all this was a terrific place to stay. The staff were all friendly & checked to see if anything was needed during the week that we stayed. Room was pretty quiet & the bed was really comfortable. I only had 2 complaints. The bathroom for the studio room is really tiny. My wife & I are not big people, but the bathroom was still a tight squeeze, especially the shower stall. If I were to stay here in the future I would spend a little more for one of the rooms with a larger bathroom. My other main complaint is about the pool hours. Staff is on the property from 9am to 8pm & that’s when the pool is open. It would’ve been nice to swim after 8 in the evening. Pretty disappointing that it closed so early.

This is a great little classic Florida Motel that is in amazing shape. Flawlessly maintained and spotless. Staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. Located at a very short walk from the beach and close to plenty of dining options. We will definitely return.

Disappointed and Won't Be Returning!

We've stayed here many times before and always had great experiences-until now. This visit was a complete disappointment from the start. Upon arrival, we were informed that pool hours had been reduced because of a previous guest's behavior. When I expressed my disappointment, the GM responded with, "Well, we could just shut down the pool..." WOW. Not exactly the warm welcome we’re used to. When we got to our room, it was clear that upkeep has seriously declined. The kitchen drawers were dirty, the sheets were stained, and there were peeling stickers in the bathtub that stuck to our feet. The shower head leaked, the bathroom window was broken, and there was no fan. To top it off, on day 2 of our stay, we received a text from management informing us that we'd possibly be without water intermittently for the next two days due to plumbing work. We were given just 15 minutes' notice before the water was shut off, with instructions not to flush toilets, use any water, or pour anything down the drains. That one-hour window was extended, twice and now here we still are, plumbers left the site, manager has no idea & can’t give any answers, of when it will restored. We are 3 hours into no plumbing, unable to shower, brush teeth or use the toilet… Overall, this has been a frustrating and uncomfortable stay, and unfortunately, we won't be coming back.

Retro motel near everything. I booked a room with a small kitchen and fridge. Publix food store was down the road a bit. Plenty of space to put the groceries and prepare meals. Will consider booking again when I come visit family in Florida :)

Clean, retro character, nice and friendly staff, ample parking space. However, first look at the property appears a bit “tacky”; but then, everything is good and worth the money. Thnx Sea Jay; definitely will come back when in Madeira Beach neighborhood.

Place was very laid back..only complaint is that the walls are way to thin... You have to whisper after 10:00 p.m. not a good place for people who want to stay up and enjoy some night life while on vacation.
