Loving life in April of 2025
Great beach house! Had everything we needed for a relaxed girls trip! Grateful for the RO water spout at the kitchen sink as the city water is definitely a challenge. We felt comfortable and safe which is a big thing for us. Loved the nice open layout of the kitchen (massive island) and living space. Everyday was a great view from the deck watching surfers, walkers, fishermen, and large ships cruising by the jetty into the canal. We could see it all! Being that close to the water was an absolute joy! Listening to and watching those waves was so relaxing. Thanks for providing such a wonderful home for us.

Overall cleanliness was ok. A lot of dog hair on the floor and furniture.
The master bed. Was horrible. It was like sleeping on the floor. I went a bought a 3 inch mattress topper. I tried to sleep on one of the small red bed and the slats were broken . I loved the location.
My family couldn't make it, so it was just me.

Fall getaway
The house is very cute though very little time on the beach with high tide in the area where we were even though all the pictures show beautiful sand in front… Broken futon in the den needs to be replaced, as well as the broken twin bed in the double twin bedroom! I don’t know who stayed there before us, but this furniture should support an array of guests… This left one less bed for us for the weekend. I love the Willie Nelson and mama tried part but it would’ve been nice. Had the fireplace worked. There was a fire down the road and the power went out so thank you for leaving some candles, but I’m glad I brought a lighter… The kitchen could be more well appointed with , a bowl and some other baking sheets for people who want to cook. The house is cute but needs some updates.

Nice home. Some wear noticeable. Kitchen was not well stocked with dishware compared to another property we had. A/C worked great. Refrigerator barely cooled so we had to resort to coolers with ice. Appliances dated. Beds and bedding fresh and comfortable.

Fabulous house, great location, but…
This house is great sitting right in front of the ocean. We loved watching the waves, walking to the beach, watching the ships come and go. The butterfly garden was a regular visit for us, just a short ride through the neighborhood. The huge negative was we were not informed of the yellow, stinky water which is apparently an issue with the water supply in Surfside. The house definitely needs a water filter, as showering in that was very undesirable. Not only was the water yellow and smelly, sediments would be left in the sinks/tub each time. We left two messages and sent an email to the property mgmt company who finally replied only via text saying we note in the listing to bring water and it’s an issue with the city and not controlled by them. Okay, but it should be disclosed and a timely response would have been nice to settle such uncomfortableness when you aren’t familiar with the city and it’s water problem. Such an unfortunate issue for such a lovely home and location that could simply be solved with a water filter.

Great Oceanfront Location
This was a great property. As evident in the pictures, the house is oceanfront. The street is not a heavily travelled street so one doesn't really need to fear getting plowed over by a vehicle. During high tide, there isn't that much usable beach. However, there are 2 different beaches within a short walking distance to the house.
The house itself was clean and had plenty of places to sleep. The only negative thing about the place was the tap water, which appeared to be a Surfside Beach issue. It was fine to bathe in and wash dishes, but we didn't drink it as there was a strong chlorine smell and taste to it. Good thing for bottled water! I wouldn't let that keep me from booking this place again.
I would recommend this place for those that want to get away to the beach and avoid crowds of people.

Great property. View is great!
The front of the house overlooks the water beautifully as does the huge fenced in deck. This property was very clean and the property manager was very attentive when we had an issue with the front lock Which was easily remedied. I would highly recommend this property. One note the fenced in backyard would have been the cherry on top … but unfortunately there were too many huge gaps for us to allow the dog to run around. Once those are taken care of … we would return again .

Always at the beach!
We adored this house. When we came home from the beach, we were still at the beach with the breathtaking views of the ocean. The house is designed so that you feel like you’re always floating on the water.
The house was super clean and has lots of wonderful amenities around the house- cornhole, scooters, games, solo stove.
Lovely furnishings, house is very up to date. We hope to be back again!
