We had a great time here. The house is very nice and had enough space, both inside and outside. The house's location made it very easy to get to the beach.
My son and his bride got married at seahorse bar & grill. This house was a perfect location for the family that stayed. had all the amenities we needed. If we come back to the area we will rent again.
Thanks for sharing your house with us.
Our family stayed for 2 days and we had a great time. Very nice neighborhood and lovely views. House was well kept and had everything we needed. Really happy and satisfied over all!
We were meeting friends in Surfside to celebrate the 4th of July & found this place right down the road from them which was perfect. Great place! Beautiful view of the beach, everything was clean & very welcoming. Plenty of room for our family. We were even able to add another day to our stay last minute . The host was very accommodating! Would definitely stay here again!
Took my family for a quick weekend away in Surfside and so glad we were able to book this home! The location was convenient- walkable to the beach (about 8 minutes) or quick/easy drive over. We also loved walking over to the bay for sunset- it was gorgeous! The house was clean and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. They had all of the necessities covered like games, grill, ice maker, and coffee. Thank you for an incredible stay!
We stayed in this property last year for July 4th & booked again for this year! Very convenient to beach access, beautiful view from front deck, & perfect for our family get away! Will stay again
Beautiful views, and nicely updated home. The home was stocked with lots of helpful items and was perfectly maintained. Only a 2 minute drive to the beach. The owner was quick to respond to my one question. Would stay here again!
It is very nice house that has wonderful view. Equipped with all the necessary items in the kitchen and comfortable beds. Short walk or a quick drive to the beach. Only thing we didnt like a water had a rusty smell to it in all the sinks and showers. We brought our own water for drinking and cooking so it was ok. Overall would recommend to stay for a quick family getaway.
I almost hate to go on about how amazing this property is. I want it to be available next year. But hands down this is the BEST beach house I have had the pleasure of staying in/visiting. It was so nice to stay somewhere that didn't feel like a frat house. So many details that made staying here convenient. Having baggies available for leftovers. Filtered water, a water cooler, and ice maker. A neat bean bag game in the living room. An added feature was the ground level laundry and space to store our doors, back windows and freedom top. While we didn't spend much time in the house, it was so nice to come home to a cool house and not have to fight with window units. This truly is a hidden gem, that clearly won't stay that way long. Didn't take any pics, but photos on VRBO clearly represent the home as we found it.
