Overall the experience was great. The location was good and had great views from the top balcony. The interior of the building was nice but there were some dusty areas. The downstairs game room was nice too but the air conditioner was not working too well. All appliances worked as they should have and there were plenty of kitchen supplies in the cabinets. The host did reply to our messages quickly and was super helpful throughout our trip.

very bad experience
The house is very dirty,sheets dirty there are cockroaches, they didn't answer my messages, one refrigerator didn't work and they didn't do anything. They let you come in at 4 and leave at 11, but if you want to stay later it costs more money. I think it's not fair because if they can let you in after 11, they only want more money.

We recently stayed at this beach house and had a generally good experience. There were several highlights: the bed in the back left room was super comfortable and had a TV in the room, the home was nicely decorated, it was a bigger beach home with many beds and bathrooms, and the view of the beach was absolutely beautiful from this front-row spot. We especially loved spending evenings on the upper deck—watching the stars and listening to the ocean was a peaceful treat. The kitchen was nice, and there were plenty of towels available in the home, which was a plus.That said, there were a few downsides. We did see six roaches during our stay, which was disappointing, though the owners did say they would treat the property. The water in the bathtub had a dark tint and a strong smell, but from what I’ve heard, that’s a common issue in Surfside. Also, some parts of the home weren’t as clean or well-kept as they initially appeared in the photos on the website — you could tell it had seen better days.Overall, it wasn’t a bad stay at all, but I have stayed in cleaner places. With a little more attention to upkeep, this could be a great rental.
