Beach view at an affordable price

You can see and hear the waves from the very spacious covered front porch. The only thing missing from the kitchen was garlic powder. The king bed was so comfortable and I really enjoyed my afternoon nap on the living room couch. The neighborhood is so quiet. There’s a little sandy opening on the dunes that you can walk across to get to the beach. I definitely recommend the house and we will definitely be going there in the future.

We enjoyed our stay for the weekend. The house was very clean, great location. The rooms were very big and beds were comfortable. The only thing is that their were tons of roofing nails that we had to pick up so no one got hurt.

Cute House, too hot

The house is cute and very nicely equipped. Location right next to beach is excellent. We left a day early because we couldn’t sleep well- the AC couldn’t keep the home cool enough for indoor comfort. Maybe bring extra fans if you can. The mosquitos on the walk from the property to the beach were very intense- clouds of them. Maybe because of recent storms. I would bring lots of repellant. We were unaware that the local water situation was not potable. This house has a reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink, which is a very nice feature. but had we known about the water ahead of time we would have been able to bring our own bottled as well.

Great location!

It was a quick weekend get away for my family and I. The house was the perfect size for all 11 of us. It was fully stocked with everything we needed. The best part was location! When not on the beach, we sat on the deck watching the waves come in. Even though the house sits on the second row you still get a great view of the ocean!

Pre Spring-Break break

What a great place to relax! The spaciousness of the cottage was a welcome sight. A large family area with lots of games and reading material. The porch has two picnic tables and lots of extra chairs. The kitchen is well stocked. We boiled snow crab and bbq’d hamburgers. Everything we needed was there. The beach is a short walk over the sand dunes. It is well kept and patrolled by local law enforcement. There was a large driftwood tree, just past the sand dunes, on the beach. It was the perfect place to set up our bonfire. If you forget anything, there is a convenience store up the road. They also sell fishing licenses and souvenirs. There are restaurants and a bar minutes away. Golf carts are allowed on the beach and there is a rental place nearby. Surf Side is so different from Galveston, much more family friendly and less crowded. It was a great weekend. My family really enjoyed themselves. We will be back.

Good, not great

First of all, the location is great! However, when we arrived the temp of the house was at 82° - a little strange if you know guests are coming. Temp didn’t go down after a while, so we contacted management (quick replies - a plus!), they sent someone out and pipes ended up needing to be flushed out. By the morning, it was down to 73. That was great, except every day it got up to 82 again. I realize it’s hot, and a lot of A/Cs have a hard time keeping up, but the house isn’t that huge. Also- this isn’t our first time vacationing in Surfside over the summer, but this is our first house to get this hot. It should be noted that the bunk room is HOT. Like really, really hot. Back two bedrooms stay at a comfortable temp. We did not turn the temp below 70, and we kept doors and windows shut (like asked). Kitchen is pretty well stocked. Having a covered deck is nice at all times of the day.

Great location. Underwhelming experience

This house was a mixed bag. Decorated well & comfy beds. Plenty of towels & sheets, but most extra bedding was just thrown into each closet on the floor unmarked & unorganized. Thoughtful touches like toys in the kids' room drawer, but no outlet safety plugs. An abundance of kitchen tools, but many rusted-- the can opener so much so it was unusable & we replaced it ourselves. The maintenance guy came by at the beginning of our stay to unclog a shower drain, but his moment of plunging was just a brief bandaid on the issue because that tub never drained properly our entire stay. Gross. The railing on the steps is screwed in only at the top, so the entire thing can swing away to the side the further down you go. Speaking of the steps, the third one from the top is entirely unsafe. It wobbled enough to warrant further investigation, upon which we found that the holes into which it's supposed to be screwed are stripped. I have pictures and videos documenting the railing issue, step issue, & tub drainage issue. When we checked in we were confused as to which lockbox & initially tried the wrong one. I texted the contact number, who'd texted me about the handyman coming not long before that, to communicate our lockbox issue & try to resolve it. There was no reply to that text, but thankfully we figured it out not long after & I followed up saying so a little while after that, to which there was no response either. So when the other issues were noticed, we figured we were on our own.

A Shore Thing is a sure thing!

Vacation on Surfside Beach was awesome for my nieces and their families. I rented this lovely beach house for my nieces and their families. There was lots room for all 10 of them and probably could have had for a couple more people. The location was great, short walk to the beautiful beach and not far of you wanted to go into Galveston. The house was very clean and had a large open living room /kitchen area. Our Host Matt was very quick to response to questions and got back quickly. Definitely would love to come back.

Perfect Beach House

This beach house was in a great location, great view, beautiful updates & perfect set-up, awesome open concept!! The extra long Island made the open concept kitchen/ living room perfect. There were 7 of us 15 - 45yr and this home could not have been more perfect. Our only complaint were the mosquitoes!!! They were terrible on the bottom level when there was no wind. Some citronella tiki torches were available. Still need to BRING YOUR OWN SPRAY!! They are also worse in the dunes, we could not walk to the beach. My boys tried & were attacked, left w/welts all over!
