Great family getaway!

The house was huge! We had three families & there was more than enough space for everyone. The kitchen was surprisingly well-equipped which allowed us to cook a full Thanksgiving meal with ease! The beach was within walking distance & it was very quiet and serene. Overall, an excellent trip!

We had a wonderful time in Surfside. The house is perfect for large group gatherings. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, the additional refrigerators made it easy to stock plenty of food and drinks, and the location was great. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Great house for family gathering

We had family members of all ages (incl a few infants) and we had a great time here. Just minutes driving from the beach and a great backyard for the kids to run around in the sun. Really nice covered balcony where we spent most of our time enjoying each other's company and having meals together. Inside was clean and well air conditioned. Had a great time!

Memories were made

We celebrated our family union during Christmas break. Everything was so wonderful. We had plenty of space and beds for people to sleep in. We really enjoyed the big parking space because we were able to play pickleball out there. And the house located at the back where there is not a lot of traffic. We also enjoyed the fact that we can walked less than 1 mile to the beach. Love the place.

Huge House!

This house is HUGE! So much space for all of us to spread out and each have our own area to settle into after our day at the beach. Of course we also enjoyed the living areas like the living room and kitchen to gather and spend some quality time together. The house was super clean upon arrival and we just immediately felt at home here.

Location and Property Management was Great!

Parking was perfect! Mosquitoes were viscous so spray before getting out of car! The space was perfect for our group of 20 and we'd definitely stay again. Cleaning company didn't do a good job with floors restrooms and lift wasn't accessible to guest but the property itself was everything we needed!

Perfect for my family!

This house was perfect for our family reunion. The house was clean and had enough beds for everyone. You do have to drive to a public beach, which will cost you $12 per vehicle. The house was very well stocked. The management always reponded to my questions promptly. We really enjoyed our stay! Looking forward to next year!

The house was wonderful. Great location. We didn't have much of a mosquito problem. The only thing the group before us left the house a mess, and the cleaning crew were in until 530. Other than that the house is a gem, the owners were very responsive.
