We had a very good experience at the Sea Cliff. The room was very clean and the place was very close to the beach (just a 1-2 min walk to the beach). The room was all equipped with everything you could need and they also can lend you all the equipment you need for the beach (chairs, umbrellas, floaties, cooler, etc). Eva the owner was super nice and understanding. We had to cut our trip short of 2 days because my wife was not feeling well and Eva didn't charge us for those days and even called us a few days later to ask how my wife was doing. Highly recommend this place and will definitely come back!

Wir sind unglaublich zufrieden gewesen im Sea Cliff. Es war perfekt für uns mit unseren beiden kleinen Kindern. Genug Platz, ausgestattete Küche, der Parkplatz vor der Tür und direkt gegenüber dem wundervollen Strand waren Gründe für uns zu buchen. Sehr sehr familienfreundlich! Unsere Kinder fanden es auch sehr entspannt im Sea Cliff. Würden wir immer wieder buchen.

Can’t say enough great things about the Sea Cliff. The location is great, right across the street from the beach and walking distance to restaurants and shops. Rooms are very clean and large, more like one bedroom apartments, with comfortable beds. Pool and pool area is clean and the pool is heated. Eva and the rest of the staff are very friendly and accommodating. Love the old school vibe of the hotel. Have stayed here before and will definitely be back. Highly recommend staying at the Sea Cliff when in Fort Lauderdale.

Charming Motel

Our stay at the Sea Cliff Motel was wonderful. The location is perfect (a few yards away from the beach) and the suite was very comfortable. We enjoyed the kitchen and living room area. The space is more like an apartment than a motel room. The staff were very helpful and seemed to genuinely love their jobs. The pool was clean and we look forward to returning.

Loved our stay!!

Our stay was great at Sea Cliff. The room was clean, well kept. Eva was accomodating. Vinny was available when we needed towels, soap, etc...The appliances worked well, there were plates, bowls, cooking utensils, pots/pans. There is even a gas grill on-site. The pool was clean and a great temperature, we were in it every night. The ocean was a block away, very convenient to the motel. The motel was close to town, within walking distance. There is a laundromat two blocks away. The atmosphere of the motel was family friendly. We look forward to our next stay there. Thank you!!!

Beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Great owner and staff. Attentive to guests, but not intrusive. We have stayed here before and returned because the fifty-year old motel has a certain charm that is lacking today in many modern and larger establishments. This is a modest property within easy walking distance to many restaurants, the pier and is across the street from the beach. The tile floors in the room however would benefit from a good cleaning.

Very Convenient and Nice Resort

The Sea Cliff Resort is right across the street from one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. It is in a quiet area yet near several good restaurants near the pier. I work for a hospital and the first thing I look for is a clean room and our room was very clean. Who ever designed the building did a great job as each room has a separate bedroom (very comfortable beds) and nice bathroom and kitchen (well furnished) and quality hotel furniture with a larger than usual flat screen tv in the living room and another tv in the bedroom. Eva was great and manages the property well. She also can recommend restaurants and things to do in the area. Linens and towels looked new. I am getting a little older and the area was safe, quiet, yet had everything anyone could need. Very good swimming pool. Guests were even friendly. Also we paid the price quoted plus tax, there was not a string of "extras" added to the bill - very nice. Very good experience and plan to return.
