The room was beautiful and the view from the room and its terrace was spectacular. The restaurant was outstanding in both service provided and quality of food served. The grounds--beach, pool, walking traisl--were finest kind. Seascape is a marvelous resort.
The staff was welcoming and friendly. The rooms were clean and inviting. It made us feel at home. The amenities were great! Especially having our own private beach. I would love stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay. Our unit was very clean and had a great partial ocean view. The resort is beautiful, quiet, and peaceful, exactly what we were looking for. The staff was very friendly and welcoming throughout our visit.
The only issue we experienced was that after dark, bats were flying around our balcony, and in the morning there were bat droppings present. We reported it to the front desk, and they responded quickly. Housekeeping came to clean and disinfect the balcony, and the staff sincerely apologized and offered to move us. Since the balcony was cleaned thoroughly, we were comfortable staying in our unit.
We did notice a hole in the corner of the roof near our balcony that may be where they’re nesting. Housekeeping said they would report it.
Other than that, our stay was wonderful and very relaxing. We truly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and would consider staying again.

Room was outdated. Restaurant menu needs some refreshing. Staff was great though. Resort seems it can use some TLC.
My wife and I stayed at Seascape Beach Resort for my birthday and had an amazing time. The beach is stunning, the staff are fantastic, and the whole place has a fun, family‑friendly vibe—lots of kids enjoying the pools and grounds. Our one‑bedroom ocean‑view suite was perfect, complete with a full kitchen stocked with utensils, cookware, a fridge, and a dishwasher. Being able to text the front desk for anything—even a pickup from the beach—made everything effortless. Special shout‑out to Kelsey, Cory, and Laura from the restaurant team—they were incredible. With multiple pools and a great location near Santa Cruz, Aptos, and Capitola, this resort is absolutely worth checking out. We’d happily come back.
