Heather Garcia, 64, agreed – but thinks the town has retained its “soul”.
She said the beaches were always empty when she was growing up.
She told YorkshireLive: “Now, when I go out for walks, the beach is full of tourists. It is a little sad that our bubble has burst, and people discovered our beautiful town – especially now as there are now lots of cars parked everywhere.”
Laura Bowles, who owns a local upholstery business, wants more people to come to Saltburn.
As an out-of-towner herself, she said she felt very welcomed by locals when she moved in two years ago.
But she said businesses do suffer through off-peak seasons and more visitors would help combat this.
The town courted scandal not long ago when workmen dug up pavements, with “weird yellow circles” painted all around.
