We stayed here for two nights and were very pleased. The rooms were exceptionally clean and attractive, and featured sliding glass doors and a deck with great views of Easton's Pond, looking over toward Newport. It was obvious the owners take pride in the place. It's in a great location, within walking distance of Newport and the start of the... More

The property was well cared for and clean. If you turn right out of the driveway there is a gorgeous beach not far away. Keep going and you'll get to downtown in a few minutes. I liked the price and location. The deck with water view was nice. The furnishings were older but in good shape. I thought the room... More

We did notice that your review was rather "mixed" and again, thank you for your initial compliments and your honesty. While we are sorry you were not happy with some aspects of our... More

We arrived very late on Friday night, around... More

Sea Whale Motel is a great choice in Newport area! Very close to everything but far enough from the noise of downtown Newport. The view from the motel is fantastic. Walking distance to many restaurants, pubs, bars and most importantly a beautiful beach!! The owners live on the premises which is always a good sign- the motel is clean and... More

You can go to an Inn or motel in Newport proper and fight the trafic congestion or go to a very clean motel with fabulous views, exceptionally clean and very affordable rates. Easy to get to, within minutes to Easton's beach and cliff walk. Teri & Jeff are the best inn keepers you'll ever meet. My wife and I have... More

Traveled to Newport with our 6 and 11 year olds in early August 2010 and we were extremely pleased with the Sea Whale Motel. It was super convenient to the beach for the kids, and we were able to get to Newport proper within minutes for mansion tours and shopping/restaurants. The owners were among the nicest innkeepers we've ever met... More

Stayed here for one night (9/18)...The owners who live right on site were very friendly and accommodating. We even arrived early (11:30am) and our room was ready. The owners Teri and Gary were very friendly and even gave us some suggestions for places and things to do in the area..My two friends and I have been "getting away" for one... More

Newport/Middletown area is a great place with dozens of things to do. We stayed in the sea whale for over a week having a comfortable and relaxing time. The rooms are very clean with good furnishings, great cleaning service, friendly people, with an overall small size creating a great atmosphere. The rooms have a great view onto the reservoir nearby... More
