Sea Gadabout - Seaside Stays

We stayed at the Sea Gadabout for 3 nights. The location is excellent, being right by the beach. It tends to be noisy, even in the night, because of people visiting the beachside. But not a major issue. The balcony is compact and nice, with a lovely view. The location is great, right in the heart of White Town, with lots of nice restaurants and bakeries within walking distance. The road in front of the hotel is a pedestrian only street. The parking space provided was about a 5-7 minute walk from the hotel. Keep in mind, that if you have luggage, you cannot pull the car up to the hotel. We did not get help with the luggage while checking out. Also be aware that you have to take a steep set of stairs up to the reception and rooms. The staff were very pleasant and nice. On day one we found our sheets were dirty and asked for the sheets to be changed. The attendant on call, initially said he did not know where the fresh sheets were and then managed to get some. This was very off putting, and a very basic thing for a stay to be pleasant. Breakfast was also disappointing. The breakfast area was under renovation, however, with the smaller area, the cooking area looked dirty with open trash cans and the food counter dirty and quite chaotic. We skipped breakfast the next two days.

Great sea views. Wonderful to sit on the balcony and relax. Worth noting the hotel is up a flight of stairs and there’s no lift, but the staff are always on hand to help with luggage. Everyone at reception is extremely helpful, able to help with travel advice etc and I would highly recommend this small hotel. If you’re a light sleeper you may want to bring earplugs as you can hear the waves (plus dogs). There’s a kettle in the room, for tea & coffee and you can buy breakfast in the restaurant downstairs or nearby. Highly recommend both Sicilys and The Spot for meals.

Excellent stay right on the beach. You can view an amazing sunrise if you are a morning person. Rooms are pretty large and very nicely managed. Staff are so nice and welcoming. If you are in need of an early check in, they can arrange a room for you with a nominal charge. Only thing is they do not have any inhouse restaurent however it has an italian restaurant right downstairs. Thank you SeaGadabout!!
