Fresh, clean, and fun. Great little area, wish we would have brought scooter for son to ride around great area.
Little Pub was delicious but busy. Great atmosphere with lots of windows to see the water even in the cool weather.
Easy uber to total mortgage arena events.

Great location; easy on/off to 95. Extremely bummed that we didn't have a beachview (nice shot of a street, though). Bed was comfortable; bathroom dated but clean; furniture sparse; maid service helpful and friendly; ample free parking. Breakfast was limited to mini muffins, cereal bars and apples (self serve). Coffee was hot when not empty. Beach walking was great and surrounding neighborhood is beautiful. Limited front desk support (not full-service) staffed by teenagers. Overall great spot for a short stay. We would come again.

To say this is a hidden gem is an under statement! It was a wonderful seaside getaway with lots of little detail including nautical decor, a coffee room, gym, old fashioned bikes with a beautiful landscape to ride, and wonderful, friendly people - not to mention little pub right next door. I can’t wait to return!

One of the greatest states I’ve ever had. I will be back. I love the fact that they are pet friendly and you get very luxurious service. The rooms were amazing. I had a patio. I could see the beach right in front of me and the water. Everyone is so genuine and accommodating. I love the customer service. The vibe is everything. The decorations of the room and coordination made me feel so comfortable and the bed and pillows were amazing. The hotel is superduper clean. I love the various areas of the hotel, like the coffee room, the gym, and there’s just a space for everyone seems like which I do love. I also love the restaurant and their choices of food. I had both lunch and dinner there and I’m so beyond satisfied. I love the private space that you get in the area . I love the rural access.

Only big issue was there was no way to cool off the room which was almost 80 degrees in winter so we had to open the windows. Hotel was empty except for our group. Concierge was responsive before and after our stay.

The Surfside is a very quaint establishment right on the water. It has a small restaurant/bar I did not have a chance to go into, there were complementary bicycles to use as well. The room was decorated simply and very clean!
