Beach Bubbly

The house is in a perfect location. Bathrooms and bedrooms were covered in dust, the floors were only mopped in the high traffic areas, under the furniture where our kids toys would end up was covered in dirt and cobbwebs. Kitchen pots and pans were all not washed well and had to be put in dishwasher before using. House just needs a good cleaning. I spent my first 12 hours getting it clean enough for my family to be comfortable with kids all over the floor. The outside shower was covered in toys and chicken had been left on the grill. Overall for what we payed the house should have been cleaner.

Girls High School Trip

My friends and I have stayed at this property several years now and have really enjoyed it.The property is perfect for a big group. Plenty of beds and baths. It's great having two refrigerators cuz we certainly filled them up. The host and hostess are very attentive and quick acting with any problems which have always been minor. Beds are comfortable and the proximity to the beach just can't be beat! I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Beautiful Beach Bubbly

Great place to stay in Surfside Beach. Beachfront property walk from the deck straight to the Ocean. Plenty of space and amenities for everyone. Better than expected and would highly recommend. There were 13 of us and we all had nothing but great things to say about the accommodations.

Great Family Vacation

I've been booking a place in Surfside Texas for six years now. I pick different homes based on how many people I have coming in from out of state. June 2023 was the second time I've stayed at this property. Having 5 bathrooms with showers is a must have when staying with multiple families. This property has consistently been the most bathrooms for the money. Great Family Vacation!

ROOMY PROPERTY

there needs to be furniture in the rooms for your clothes - there are two rooms with closets but they are both locked - nowhere to put your bags that you are having to live out of - there are hooks on the back of the door and some hooks hanging in the rooms but we had clothes for 7 days for 2 people in each room and the rooms with bunks we had 4 people in those rooms and not nearly enough hooks to hang everyone's clothes on - everything else was great!!!

Stay at Beach Bubbly

Our family had a wonderful time together at Beach Bubbly. the location was perfect the house a little tired. Positive: location to beach (best), comfy beds, five bathrooms, suitable supply of kitchen supplies, wonderful seating for meals, comfy sofa, great ramp for loading and unloading, provided shampoo and soap, provided several buggy boards and beach toys Negatives: had to make our own beds upon arrival sweep and return all dishes to their proper place before leaving as well as strip beds and pay a mantenance fee, Cable dish did NOT work on college football week-end and was not fixed, only a 5 cup coffee maker for 9 coffee drinkers, Well water not tasty so we needed to buy drinking/coffee water, children picked up many (6) splinters on porch, outside shower only cold water, no measuring cups

Great Beach House!

This is the perfect house if you are going to be close to the beach but want room (and bathrooms) for everyone! It's a great location & house has everything you need to be comfortable for a week. With grown children it's so nice having 3 King bedrooms. And the other 3 rooms are good for kids or adults. With 14 of us we had beds to spare. We really appreciated the outdoor shower that's been added., too. We rented this house in April for a family wedding & can't recommend enough if you are interested in a small (and inexpensive) event. The HEB in Lake Jackson catered the whole thing including flowers & delivered them! Makes for beautiful pictures. Melissa is just the greatest to work with & answers any questions quickly. Love this rental & hope to go back for more fun times!

Lovely Home

My family and I spent a week in Beach Bubbly. The deck is large and lovely with a pergola overhead to shield the sun. The six bedrooms and five bathrooms accommodated everyone. Except there were no closets or dressers in the bedrooms, so finding space for suitcases and bags on the bedroom floors was difficult. The toaster was not working, so I reached out to the owner and had a new one by the end of the day. The decor is very nice with beachy color schemes. The shower below the house helped keep most of the sand from coming into the house. You really don't spend much time in the house since you are just a few steps from the water. We had a wonderful time at the beach!

Nice house but bad weekend

We had our family together for what we thought was going to be a nice relaxing weekend. The house accommodated our large group well, right on the beach. Unfortunately, the weekend we were there the entire beach in front of the house was taken over by a Jeep rally. Not only did they not allow us any space to have our family hang out on the beach but they played inappropriate music so loud you could hear it inside the house and unfortunately, this Jeep rally went on Friday and all day Saturday, so we had very little enjoyment on the beach. I would recommend to the owners to let renters know when these things are planned so they can be prepared or plan a different weekend. We will not go back to surf side beach.

Fun and Food at the Beach

Bubbly Beach was just as described. 6 bedrooms that were full with the beds and 4 small bathrooms. The house had great dishes and silverware- way more than enough for the 12 of us. The living room and dining room were fantastic for 12 people. We enjoyed the puzzles and the big screen tv. One of the days we were at Surfside it was rainy and windy so we stayed inside and played games. The table in the dining area was great for 2 tables of cards. The kitchen could have been cleaner- the BBQ grill was full of ashes, the refrigerator bins were sticky and the outside was gooey. The rollers on the racks in the dishwasher were wompie but our guys fixed them as much as possible so the rack could be rolled out to put dishes in it. The bathroom showers had mold between the 2 plastic liners. There were many pots and pans to cook with so cooking was easy.

Dirty house on the beach

Arrival to the property looked nice. The bottom has a new outdoor shower with plenty of space for 3 cars to park underneath. The porch is big with gates to keep small children inside. The walk to the beach is very short. Great location. But that’s where the good part ends. The front door doesn’t open well because of the terrible floors. The inside of the house literally has hills in the floors. Everything is uneven including the refrigerators. The left fridge has a broken shelf which seems like the whole thing will fall apart soon. The linens, mattress pads and blankets are in horrible condition. Stains all over the place. If you are going to make your guests put on their own sheets you should at least have decent mattress pads. The water is disgusting. It’s yellow and smells like sulfur/chemicals. You cannot drink or cook with it and it makes taking a shower miserable. The showers are SMALL. You can barely move your elbows. The WiFi does not work well. The huge roach we found on the last day wasn’t a pleasant find either. While there was plenty of space for our group of 14 we were not pleased with the general conditions. Needs a lot of work.

DO NOT STAY HERE: Not Truthful to Pictures

I was really disappointed with my stay. I have never stayed at a home that was not what was shown on pictures or reviews. The place was pretty disgusted to the point I didn’t want to put my bare foot on the ground. I couldn’t even sit and relax on the couch because of how bad the condition of the couch is. Those blankets she had over the couch were not clean either. Not to mention the beds were soiled and not clean. I ended up waking up next day vomiting and sick. I believe the mattress protector wasn’t cleaned in at least a decade. While spreading the supposedly clean sheets on the dirty mattresses and mattress protectors, you notice the yellow discoloration on the white sheets. In one of the rooms, there was a left over chewed piece of gum on the bed post. All the carpets and mats were so dirt. The only reason we completed our stay was that we had 5 families that drove out to spend New Years together. My daughter had traveled all the way from Maine to spend New Years with me and her extended family. We made the best out of a horrible situation. You go to cook in the kitchen and the mat on floor is just filthy. You go to take a shower and the bath was clogged. Also, the safety risks for a family with kids is important. The balcony had a couple loose wood pieces. Our young kids could have fallen between the holes and had serious injury up to death. There was one rail that was completely removed and our babies could have fell through and died. We had our one year old siting on floor and noticed he was pulling up a loose baseboard on floor. He could have fell right through. Safety Precautions need to be taken. Oh my the more I remember and think of how disgusting things were, the more embarrassed I am for my family that came out to spend New Years with us. My other daughter and her extended family drove a little over an hour to spend New Years with my other daughter who flew in from Maine. I was aware of the washer being broken but was not aware of how run down and dirty the home was. DO NOT STAY HERE
