Accommodations: House, 3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths (Sleeps 6)
Surfside Colony is a guard-gated neighborhood of beach-side homes located between Seal Beach and Huntington Beach, California. Easily accessed by freeway and Pacific Coast Highway, it is close to shopping, restaurants, theaters, golf courses, and such major attractions as Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, the Queen Mary, the Aquarium of the Pacific, and deluxe shopping at South Coast Plaza.
No home in Surfside is more than 75 feet from the beach, and the sound of the waves and salt tang of the breeze give this water-side community a unique marine atmosphere. The community has been a seaside destination for Southern Californians since 1929, and no two houses are alike. Our broad, sandy private beach is great for strolling and shell collecting.
Recreational possibilities include beach combing, surfing, fishing, shell collecting, swimming, wind surfing, kayaking, and golfing. All of Southern California's major attractions are close by.

A wonderful, relaxing stay

My family just spent a long weekend at this wonderful house and we came away far exceeding our expectations. I wasn't quite sure what to expect with the weekend as I hadn't been to the Seal Beach area. Upon first arriving, as dusk was settling, I was awarded the most amazing sunset. This continued to be the trend each evening as the sun would set right in front of the house right over the beach. And right in front of you is the wonder of the Catalina islands. We just happened to luck into a wonderful, warm weekend. The beach was calm and serene and we felt like we had it to ourselves! Each day we would walk in each direction to explore more areas. We loved Seal Beach and all if its charm. There are some wonderful restaurants and bars to explore there. The house itself was so charmingly decorated - I felt immediately at home. The master bed and bath opens its doors to the gorgeous beach. I spent lots of time just taking pictures and looking out. Downstairs, there is a family room that allowed us all to cook big dinners, hang out together and open the doors to the beach. This is a great place to come with family members or kids as everyone can run and do as they please. The kitchen is beautifully and functionally decorated - it was a pleasure cooking in there. There were also plenty of bathrooms available - my nephew loved the steam and jacuzzi upstairs in the master bath! I would love to return to this property. The pictures don't even do it justice. And you can't find warmer, more accommodating hosts than the owners.
Recommended for:Age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, girls getaway.
Thank you for the opportunity to stay in your home

Patsy and I want to thank you for the opportunity to stay at your Surfside home, you and my wife have to be kindred spirits. No matter where we rent at the beach, every year I have to bring a truck load of beach decorations so she can feel like it's her home. But with your home there was no need for them since it was decorated so well. THANK YOU THANK YOU. As I stated before we always treat wherever we rent like itis our own home and with the pictures of you and your husband, and family we almost felt part of your family

Imaging arriving with our family after a long drive from the Phoenix area to find wet towels in drawers and sheets in the washer and dryer. A call to the owner did not help. We spent the first night doing laundry and cleaning the kitchen because all the dishes and utensils were not clean due to an obstruction in the dishwasher. Also, you can’t use the upstairs shower because it leaks through the ceiling. The place is nice, and has a great location, but it needs a better cleaning service and obviously gets heavy use. We thought it would be fair to get our cleaning deposit refunded, to no avail. And why so few reviews of this rental? I’d stay in surfside, but not at this unit.
Owner response:This appears to be a hoax--no guest named " Bobby" was registered at our lovely home during that time period

Mary; thank you very much for allowing us to rent your house, the experience for me and my family will bring a lifetime of memories. Your attention to detail was amazing. My wife had such a good time that she has suggested that the two of us return sometime this fall, so don't be too surprised to hear from us very shortly
