Great place to stay. Was a comfortable house with a crossover to the beach right infront of the house. The owners were quick to reaponses of any questions and extremely friendly. Would highly recommend staying here
Our stay was wonderful. We recommend staying weekdays if you’re looking for relaxation, as the beach was quite crowded on weekend days. The house had everything we needed. We did buy a new grill, as the one available there has not held up well in the salty environment. The dog pen at the bottom of the stairs was very convenient.
We always like to spend a week at the beach somewhere in the summer. My great-grandkids are my traveling partners. My youngest grandson and I always get a golf cart and ride the beach looking for the hamburger nuts and Hearts good luck nuts. We feel very safe on the beach as it is patrolled by the police. The house was on the second row, like we like. There were just a few things that would have helped with the stay. I always cook, but there was no seasoning for the food, no sugar for tea, no PAM for our eggs. Of course, we had leftovers and no bowls with lids or ziploc bags. So if you cook, take whatever you might need. We borrowed from the neighbor..Plenty of coffee!!! Comfortable beds.
We enjoyed our stay here, the location was so close to the beach, the rooms were setup perfect so we could sit all the children and the home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend.
We truly enjoyed our weekend with our family. Very warm and inviting home! The restaurant across the way was super cool. Good food and live bands. We would definitely go back again.
My family and I vacation every summer to Surfside. This year we chose the Reese Rendezvous and loved it! Very clean, cozy and accommodating for our two dogs. Kitchen was well stocked, toiletries in case we forgot something and close proximity to the beach and restaurants. Highly recommend.
Awesome place and great location, clean and nice place, has everything you need, we forgot couple of things to bring in but everything was available at the property, owners were quick to respond for questions, definitely will stay again, Thank You
Third year in a row to stay here for our girls trip we love this spot and will continue to go, everything is perfect

About the host
Hosted by Randy and Doneane Reese
Hello! We are Randy and Doneane Reese. We bought our beach home in 2014 while Randy was working in Freeport. When his job ended, we decided to start sharing our little piece of paradise with others. Randy is an Electrical Inspector and Doneane is a Lawyer and College Professor. We love to come to our home and relax and de-stress!
Why they chose this property
We love the location, the views, and all of the local amenities that Surfside offers its residents and vacationers. The Village of Surfside is a family oriented community. The beaches are well maintained and patrolled. Car traffic is minimal (unless it is a holiday weekend).
What makes this property unique
Surfside offers many conveniences that other local beach communities lack. We really like that it is a quiet place to bring our family (unlike some other Southeast Texas beaches!). Groceries, drinks, ice, gas, souvenirs, restaurants and bars, there is really no reason to leave the island for anything! We also have neighbors who are full time residents so we have them to look out for things when we are not there. With close access to the beach for walking over, and a drive on entrance just a few blocks away, this was the perfect vacation home for us! We look forward to many more years enjoying Surfside.
