Our Second Time Staying

We had another great time at Surf Betty. Location is great - close to town, but also very peaceful. Dipping pool came in very handy with the heat and humidity after a day at the beach.

We have come for the last 6 years and always stay at Surf Betty. It is a perfect place to stay near the beach but also a lovely escape. We always plan a weekend here and love it. Wonderful home and wonderful hosts. 😘

Wonderful stay at Surf Betty

The minute we walked into Surf Betty we knew we had made a great choice on a vacation rental. All the furnishings and amenities were first class. The pool was small but according to my 3 and 6 year old granddaughters “this is the best pool ever.” We will be staying again in the future

A little piece of heaven on the Texas coast!

The Surf Betty did not disappoint!!! Beautiful property. All of the amenities. A lovely home away from home where you can lounge in and outside of the pool. We enjoyed several of our meals outdoors. Can’t wait to come back for another stay.

Family beach vacation

Could not have picked a better property to take our kids to their first beach vacation! The house and location were just perfect. Beach in the morning as soon as the kids woke up. Pool in the afternoon after nap time. We rented a golf cart and could get to everything in town in less than 5 minutes. We might return every summer and stay at the Surf Betty!

Great Property

4 adults for 4 days, property as described. Wonderfully appointed....plenty of towels, kitchen supplies, comfortable environment, not lacking anything we needed. Dipping Pool is small but a welcome addition. Slight glitch with internet delayed getting code, but owner was very responsive and worked through it quickly.

Fans of Surf Betty

The entire property was absolutely beautiful! No detail was spared on this home. Although the rain limited our beach time this weekend, we were able to enjoy the fantastic plunge pool and outdoor patio on our first night. Our group enjoyed lots of cooking together, as some lounged on the oversized sofa and watched movies in between naps. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. We were conveniently located to everything. Communication with the host was great. Everyone in our party of 8 would love to visit SurfBetty again.

Great Property!

We had a great time at Surf Betty. Having a pool to look forward to after a day at the beach is a good thing! You placed the patio just right to have shade at the hotest part of the day! Our last dinner was at the table on the patio as we enjoyed the sea breeze with our dinner.
