Ultimately a great experience
After a not so good check in (initial room assigned was unacceptable with overpowering mold smell that was making us feel sick, unlockable balcony door and unlockable front door bolt lock) front desk staff (Tiona) worked to get us a better room. The suite we ended up with 30 minutes later was a superior room, better layout and amazing ocean view at same cost. Everything worked. No mold or mildew smell. We settled in and had a wonderful week’s stay. The staff was friendly and helpful. We would certainly stay there again in the future.

Great stay, location, view, staff. AC and thermostat appear to be very old and possibly not functioning properly. Room was hot despite max AC (ok at night, hot during day). I notified front desk at checkout and she said she would inform maintenance.

My stay at the Sealord was what I needed to rest and reset. Richard the chef and owner and his son Emile were amazing hosts. I had not tried Grupa fish and Richard prepared an incredible meal for me that included a delicious linguine. He also cooked my breakfast everyday. I WILL RETURN NEXT TIME I NEED A REST. Access to the beach and pool were also very convenient.

As noted by other travellers this building is old and unfortunately has a serious issues with musty odors amd molds which the owner and staff do their best to mask with the use of Febreeze, in-wall scent plug-ins, bleach etc. The overwhelming odour of the perfumes when you first walk in is the first clue. It sadly doesn’t get better from there on. I have visited 3 different rooms and all were terribly musty smelling. The ones with sofas in it smelled of mould. My partner is extremely allergic to mould and left the room at 11pm the night we checked in to sleep elsewhere. I stayed until morning to try to air out the space but ultimately left at 8am as I too was feeling unwell. The views are the best. The staff is so nice but seems to have many roles. The lady who checked us in was also our waitress and helped the chef prepare food in the kitchen. The food was delicious but in the end had to leave due to health symptoms and honest concerns about mould. Their reply after bringing up my concerns was: there can’t be mould or must because the room was remodelled which should give potential new clients even more reason to be concerned. Beautiful, great staff but sick building which no amount of cleaning products can fix.

Our Fave!
We have stayed at the Sealord multiple times and it is our favorite place to go to on Lauderdale by the sea. It’s a perfect location, extremely convenient, walking distance to the LBS restaurants and bars. And of course, the beach is right there at your feet. Love the staff there and really have loved all the rooms I’ve stayed in. It’s our fave!

This is truly a hidden GEM absolutely amazing! I couldn’t be happier with the service and personal chef experience. The room was absolutely perfect with a beautiful ocean view and balcony. The areas is perfect with amazing restaurants and night life! The ladies at the front desk are very sweet, knowledgeable about the area, helpful in each and every way! The ladies and gentleman helped my boyfriend plan a romantic candle light dinner for my birthday!! by the pool right in front of the ocean, took pictures and provided an absolutely once in a lifetime experience that had me in tears❤️ the personal chef was amazing! Along with the service from Tatiana was the best experience you could ever dream! The private beach area and pool side very quiet and calm! Adults only! Very nice guests as well! Housekeeping was fabulous!! We will be back very soon!
