This beach house was lovely! Easy to book, easy to get into. Perfect view of the ocean from the porch and the main living space of the house. The place felt spacious, was stocked far beyond the bare minimum as far as linens, kitchenware, and even kids toys. Beach access for the neighborhood was RIGHT there. The grill outside needs replacing. I'm not sure if the outdoor shower doesn't work, or we just couldn't figure out how to MAKE it work - It could use some directions if that's the case. Two of the three bedrooms don't have windows, which to me is not ideal, but my husband said it let him have great sleep! The windowless bedrooms are the ONLY reason I MAY look for a different home if we choose to stay in Surfside again. Other than that oddity, it was a 10/10 experience. I would recommend the place to friends and family!

Simply amazing!

Mermaids Paradise was the perfect place for a girls weekend get away. The decor was beautiful and amenities were wonderful. We are already planning our next trip and want to come back to the same place. My only recommendations are to supply at least 1 more roll of paper towels and toilet paper. I would also love for the swing in the pictures to be back in place (I understand it was ruined in the hurricane.)

We recently stayed at this property and found it to be a mix of positives and concerns.The location is fantastic—right on the beach with easy access over the dune bridge. We loved relaxing on the porch and appreciated how quiet and uncrowded it was during the week. The decor is also very cute and thoughtfully done.Unfortunately, several issues impacted our stay. Cleanliness was lacking on arrival, with coffee grounds on cabinetry and trash left in the garbage cabinet. The home also needs general maintenance, with visible rust, chipping paint, and disrepair. The faucet water appeared rusty during our stay.The kitchen was disorganized and not well stocked—no extra dish towels and basic items were difficult to find, making it hard to prepare meals.We also experienced an ongoing issue with small roaches. After encountering multiple, we felt uncomfortable enough to leave two days early. While we appreciated that the host provided a partial refund, this significantly affected our experience.Overall, while the location and decor are strong positives, the cleanliness, maintenance, and pest issues would prevent us from staying here again.

Easy, comfortable place to stay.

We have stayed at this property twice. We love it! It works great for our family; it is relaxing and easy going, cozy and cute. 2 trips both successes. The open kitchen, a lot of counter space + 2 refrigerators and large island is perfect for beach stays and quick meals. Clean and the view is amazing. Cons - Surfside's rusty smelling water and the towns amenities - but you know that when booking Surfside. We take bottled water for cooking/drinking. Bring beach chairs, foil, paper towels and kitchen trash bags.

While the house is beachfront and has cute decor, our stay was deeply disappointing. Check-in was jarring, as an unannounced management/owner rep was there with Xfinity for post-storm wifi repairs. The only TV in the house was fried do to a power surge prior to our arrival. The repaired wifi was incredibly slow.Beyond the lack of privacy, we encountered multiple cleanliness and maintenance issues: Dirty Kitchen: The kitchen was not cleaned prior to arrival, with some dirty dishes left in drawers and cabinets. Leftover Trash: The downstairs area had trash from previous guests.Pests: Rats were seen running around the yard and pier area.Surprises: A blanket covered in Cheetos was left out, and a bug zapper was left plugged in on the kitchen counter.Maintenance & Amenities Broken Utilities: The outdoor shower was not functioning, and one refrigerator door would not close all the way.Plumbing Issues: The toilet backed up, but there was no plunger in the house.Missing Essentials: No kitchen towels or oven mitts were provided. We had to use a bathroom towel for cooking and baking. One bathroom didn't have a trash can.Bedrooms: Both queen rooms were without any windows. The bunkroom had a window but no curtains or blinds for privacy. Beds only had thin sheets instead of proper comforters or blankets.Safety Hazard: The outdoor trash bin was left sitting in a large puddle of water at the end of the driveway. Overall it felt unclean and not well maintained.

This house was located in a perfect spot! You can walk to the beach in 5 min. Beautiful views, comfy beds, LOTS of board games, 2 fridges & 2 microwaves…. However, the dryer didn’t work well (had to run it several times), I never could get the dishwasher to work, the outside shower does not work (you have to use a water hose), the wooden bench pictured no longer exists, and the city water looked yellow (probably can’t be controlled by the home owners). There’s an HEB and Walmart about 15 min away, and some mini food marts nearby. There was not practical utensils in the kitchen. There was only one cooking skillet, 1000 serving platters, no pizza cutter but yet it had a cigar cutter… just random things in the kitchen. I also couldn’t get the front right burner to work on the stove top. All in all, the location and proximity to the beach was top notch, but the amenities were lacking.
