Great Beach Getaway!

Perfect beach house for a getaway! My husband and I had a great stay for the weekend with our two pups. The house and property was very clean and short walk to the beach! The host was very easy to communicate with, if I had any questions. We would definitely stay again!

Great weekend at Surfside

Little house was adorable; very close to the jetties…we were able to see some ships, which was fun for the small children. The owners were very accommodating. We always enjoy coming to Surfside. Had a great weekend at the beach.

Nice Getaway

My wife and I stayed at this cozy Surfside beach house and really enjoyed it. It was clean, cool and close to the beach and jetty. Rob, the property owner, was responsive and went the extra mile to make sure our stay was great. I would definitely stay here again or try another of Rob’s properties in Surfside.

Just What We Wanted

Cozy, quiet, and comfortable which was just what we wanted. The cottage was easily accessible from the main Hwy and had easy access to food, sightseeing, and adventure. We can’t give a rating on the nearby beach since it was off season and kinda chilly.

Easy Stay

The stay was lovely for a quick beach weekend and a work from home day. Property was the perfect size for my partner and I, and our small-medium sized dog. Two notes: there were small ants in the bathroom, and the AC never got cold (really never below 74, sometimes as high as 79). But overall, great stay!

Comfortable Little Vacation House

My son & I rented the house to be close to my other son & family who were staying 2 blocks away. The house was great for just the 2 of us.My son slept on the sleeper sofa. The location was nice & easily accessible to the beach. The kitchen had adequate accessories needed to make quick meals.

Weekend getaway

Communication with the host was 5 stars within minutes of booking. Even when I made a mistake in booking, he was quick to offer a solution to make our weekend plans seamless and enjoyable. The arrival directions were spot on and easy to follow. The house is perfectly located- you get a peek at the ocean, but are just far enough away to enjoy the quiet neighborhood. Stores and restaurants are walking distance. The house was meticulously cleaned and had every kitchen and bathroom item we needed. They even had beach towels and chairs for our use. The bed was super comfortable. All the comforts of home made this rental a great spot for the weekend. We will definitely return!

Great Little Getaway

I really enjoyed our stay at this house! It was just me and my partner and it was the perfect size for us! The house smelled great, and it had everything we needed. The house itself is a little older, but it added to the charming quality of the overall appeal to the place. A plus was the bathroom was updated and had a vanity mirror and a nice large, updated shower which was perfect after spending all day at the beach! Definitely a quick 3 min walk to the beach by the jetty, which was nice for morning walks. Be prepared to drive further down the beach for a good beach day; however you could get away doing a beach day at the beach by the house. It was quiet at night and also pretty quiet during the day, so it was peaceful being there. The steps to the house aren’t too high, so it’s easy to get your things up and down from the house. Overall recommend this house for a good quick getaway to the beach! Will be back!

Great Vaca Rental

This beach cottage was perfect for a girls trip!! This adorable cottage was very clean, fully stocked with needed condiments, any possibly forgotten bathroom toiletries, along with laundry soap. This cottage was perfect size for the three of us. The owner of the property was prompt with communication, allowed us earlier check in along with checking in to make sure the a/c units were keeping us comfortable with the crazy TX heat wed been having. If needing a larger beach Cottage, next door to this property is a beautiful 3 bedroom, also newly remodeled, amazingly kept cottage with the same owners. We can’t wait to get back to Surfside and hope one of these properties are available.

Perfect Stay

Most excellent cozy house for relaxation and rest. Had everything my wife and I needed to recover between her appointments at MD Anderson. Preparing meals in the well equipped kitchen was so much better than fast food. Lotta coffee! Lol! Walked to the beach, swam, watched birds, ships and fishermen. The ocean was beautiful. Felt safe and slept well. Couldn’t be happier. Owner was gracious and responded immediately. Thank you!

Great Rental

I would give this rental 5 stars across the board if not for the misleading listing regarding the beds. The bed in the bedroom is a full size bed not a queen. This would have been a dealbreaker when booking as I am 6’3” and my legs hang off the end of a full size bed.The listing claims the couch is a queen but it is not. A pull out couch is not a queen bed, especially this style where it simply pulls up another row of couch cushions. Great for snuggling and watching a movie. And we would never book a rental with the intent of sleeping on the couch. Photos and labeling of rooms and beds on the listing was misleading at best. Hopefully that gets fixed. I’m am including a screen shot of the listing showing the room labeling discrepancy. Couches were also different from photo. **EVERYTHING ELSE WAS PERFECT!** Very Clean, and all the amenities one could ask for in a vacation rental. We even appreciated the little things that we don’t normally get with rentals (like condiments, cooking oil, good toilet paper, travel toiletries, laundry soap, beach chairs, etc). Perfect size rental for 2-3 people and is a 5 minute walk to the beach. Communication with the host was great and for what it is worth they did apologize for the bed situation and tried to make it up to us (which I do appreciate).Don’t hesitate to book this place if you can deal with the full size bed (which did have a very comfy mattress).
