Flip Flop Bungalow, Your Laid-Back, Toes-in-the-Sand Escape!
Summary: Kick off your shoes, slip on your flip-flops, and get ready to chill in style! This funky, fun-filled retreat sits right between the Intracoastal Waterway and the beach, giving you killer views and easy-peasy access to sun, sand, and seafood. Start your day sipping coffee on the deck as boats cruise by, then stroll to the beach in just minutes for a salty breeze and sandy toes. Feeling hungry? A beachside bar & grill is just steps away, serving up tropical drinks and fresh-off-the-boat seafood—because nothing says "vacation" like a piña colada in hand!
The Space: Inside, this bungalow is packed with good vibes and coastal flair—think bright, beachy décor, comfy lounging spaces, and a fully stocked kitchen for when you feel like whipping up a feast. Whether you're here to relax, explore, or dance in the sand, Flip Flop Bungalow is the ultimate Surfside Beach hideaway.
The living area offers plenty of seating for TV time catching up on your favorite series or curling up with that book you have been meaning to read. The kitchen is well-stocked and setup to prepare your tastiest dishes when dining in, or step outside and utilize the provided BBQ grill and dine al fresco with lots of seating options including table and chairs. No need to worry about creating laundry, as there is a washer/dryer included.

The Neighborhood: 🏝️ We (The 979 Crew) love our sleepy Surfside Beach community with plenty of sand and surf to enjoy! No touristy chain restaurants, shops or hotels. Just chillin' beach bar and grills, food (and beverage) trucks (like Surfin Rita Daiquiris To-Go), burger joints (like Pier 30 and Sharkies on the Beach) and tasty fresh seafood options (like Seahorse Bar & Grill and Beachfront Deck Bar & Grill) line the water. Surfside is your simple relaxing sandy beach, water sporting, surfing, fishing and crabbing vacation destination.
Other Things to Note: HOSTED BY THE 979 CREW ADVANTAGE: The 979 Crew is comprised of island locals who are passionate about making sure the home you chose is nothing short of clean, comfortable, and ready for your group's fun! Every home is fully and professionally cleaned after each guest stay. In addition, all of our homes feature luxury hotel-quality/high thread count on all sheets, bedding, and bath towels which are replaced upon every turnover including the duvet covers and shams (we've heard not every company does this, and we think that's just gross). We take clean seriously! When you rent a 979 home, you'll also receive the 'comforts of home' guest welcome starter supply of shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, tp and paper towels, dishwasher and clothes washer pods. We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

WIFI/TV SERVICE: Our properties include WIFI/Internet and TV service for your streaming services. Due to our location (Island living is a whole other way of life), service may be unpredictable or spotty, and repair times can be delayed. While we will do everything we can to ensure these items are in good working order before your arrival, please note, these services may not be as consistent as they are in your area. So grab your favorite people, ditch the electronics, and spend the day at our beautiful beaches!

Great stay!
Everything was great! The house was nice and clean and had everything we needed! The only slight negative was the front door was a little tough to get open as the handle was sticking but I’m sure it was just due to the salt water! We would definitely stay there again!
