Sea Foam Motel Most of our guests are regulars and you just might meet someone who has been coming to the Sea Foam for more than 20, 30 or even 40 years!

What stands out for many of our guests is retro feel and the friendly atmosphere where new visitors quickly make friends and are soon visiting on our patio, by the pool, or enjoying a game of shuffleboard or corn hole.

Our main attraction will always be the beautiful oceanfront beach directly behind our motel where you can swim, relax, read a book, take a stroll, jog or watch the sunrise from our gazebo while enjoying a cup of coffee.

The Sea Foam is next to Jennette’s Pier, popular for strolling, fishing, and ocean and sun-rise viewing, with facilities for marriages and other functions. We are just minutes from the historic town of Manteo, Jockeys Ridge State Park, Wright Brothers National Memorial, Oregon Inlet Fishing Center, and Bodie Lighthouse, in addition to great restaurants and shopping.

Many guests leave their car parked during their stay knowing they can walk to several fine restaurants or a market to pick up groceries to prepare in their room.

Our convenient location makes us the best rooming option of the local hotels and motels!
