Spent first day cleaning and had to rewash soured sheets and dirty mattress pads before we could make the beds. That being said, we had a wonderful time! Had a great ocean view and nice breeze while sitting on the large deck, kitchen had everything needed, and AC and WIFI worked well.

It was a great house and location overall. We loved how close it was to the beach. With a large group the livingroom, dining, and kitchen had plenty of seating and space. The porch was awesome and had gates on the stairs for added safety. One thing to note is that there was flooding under the house that made the concrete area and outdoor shower unusable.

Great location. House was average, with a good layout. No significant issues, except no wifi. Had to put the sheets on the beds, which I have not had to do in the past.

I’m sorry your stay wasn’t better. The WIFI issue has been fixed. The Co we were with for 10yrs, disappeared overnight. It took several day to confirm & get another company set up. Unfortunately, the only scheduled slot we could get was after your stay. We didn’t have any alternative options to correct the problem sooner. Thank you!

Thank you for your stay. I'm sorry you feel that way about the house. The house is a rental & very popular down in Surfside. Many of the rentals were designed to accommodate large groups. Unfortunately, we've had to adjust our prices over time due to increased costs for cleaning, electricity, & maintenance.

Relaxing vacation

The rental house was in a perfect location for our family. Quiet & not crowded! Short & easy access to the beach. The concrete parking area under the house was excellent. We were able to park four pickup trucks there.

pro: beach close, beds are nice, 2 refrigerators con: had to put the sheets on the beds, the only windows looking out at the beach were filthy, took me an hour to clean, the grill grates on the barbecue pit had a black sludge and the ashes were not removed.

Response from VrboOwner on 17 July 2024
I'm sorry we didn't meet your expectations. We have someone who helps maintain the house on the island who could have come down & cleaned the grill and the windows if you had contacted me. We have tried different options regarding the bedding and have chosen this method. The sheets are clean & ready to be put on the bed. You only need to make the beds you are using and that ensures you are getting into a clean bed. Other benefits include turning the house around quickly between rentals, reduces your cleaning costs, & enables us to allow for early check-ins when asked. The windows are cleaned but they do get dirty everyday depending on the weather. Being beach front, we get the wind, sand from the wind, condensation, etc. that makes it difficult to keep the windows clean. We hope you enjoyed your stay in Surfside.

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.

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!!!

We have spent many vacations down in Surfside with our extended family & love the family atmosphere. The beaches are well maintained and fishing is excellent. Boat access is quick & easy. Marina & guided fishing charters are available.
