Pros:

Absolutely the best place I've ever stayed. From the first greeting by Cindy to the checkout process, the Sea Spray Inn is outstanding. The studio was white glove clean, room was very quiet (never heard my neighbors), had everything I needed (inc beach chairs and umbrellas), and was a short walk to the beach. This will be my new "go to" place to stay when I travel to S. Florida.

Pros:

After four previous Fort Lauderdale trips for beach swims and nice restaurants, Sea Spray Inn will be my permanent hotel for so many reasons - friendly staff, beautiful pool areas, rooms cleaner and updated better than any Hilton or Marriott, perfect location to walk 70 yards and be in the ocean, no traffic noise, etc. Cindy at the front desk is so nice and gives you the local scene lowdown.
