Beautiful, well maintained and organized
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.

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!

Excellent Property - Fun, Clean, and Convenient
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!
