We wanted a property right on the beach for an early September getaway . surf Suites was perfect. The property is well maintained and all of the room appliances are in excellent condition. The view from the balcony was perfect. The weather was great and the beach is very nice. The property is next to the Oceanic restaurant and pier. No charge to walk on pier and fish. Room is large and furnishings are comfortable.

Great location, but ....

The hotel is nice, the location is excellent. However, you can hear everything between the floors, through the walls. If anyone is rude enough to be partying in their room at 3am. You will hear it. Conversations in adjoining rooms will be easily heard. I didn't sleep to well, but I enjoyed myself during the day.

Lovely place for a getaway

Perfect location and exactly what we had hoped it would be...quiet and relaxing. The views are amazing and we enjoyed watching the surfers and also the little herd of rabbits that graze in the lawn. The pool was very clean and the entire property is beautifully maintained.

We have been using Surf Suites several times a year for many years. The facilities are a little tired and basic, but the rooms are clean and spacious, with a small kitchen and separate bedroom. Parking is also great. It is just a 1 minute walk from the Oceanic restaurant. Each room is decked out slightly differently...some have TVs where there is streaming access. Staff are always helpful. Location and beach access are hard to beat!

This hotel was perfect for our needs. Great beach and pool. A mile walk to stores/ shops but great coffee shop across the street and seafood restaurant next door. We loved the full kitchen. The doors to the bathroom and bedroom stick so very loud every time we opened a door. Also I think pool towels should be provided since ours from home were constantly too wet. Housekeeping and front desk staff both excellent. We would stay again.
