We're sorry to hear you didn't enjoy this beachfront condo more, and you felt it was in less than ideal condition, Jerry. While this place is directly on the beach, and therefore subject to the sand, salt, humidity, and strong sea breezes, we do respect and understand a constant level of maintenance needs to performed and items need to be replaced. We have passed along your specific feedback to the home's owner who ultimately decides what work and improvements can and will be done. Thank you.

Thank you for the 10 out of 10, and we're so glad you loved this seaside property and your stay, Louis! All of our homes are on regular and professional pest control, but those roaches (while uninvited for sure) are crafty buggers. Sorry for any inconvenience as a result of our coastal environment they so love. We hope to host you again!

Sadly run down. Sofa has cover over it - hides the sad and extremely uncomfortable reality. Stove is ancient, mismatched silverware sitting atop mini-microwave, condensation from ceiling vent drips onto the floor. Apparently driving on the beach is normal in Texas?? Makes use of the beach the opposite of what I would want. They did respond promptly when I indicated I wanted a refund if the frigid air coming in was not addressed - and there was no hot water.Skip this one.

Thank you for allowing us to host your island. We're sorry the home wasn't the right fit for your expectations. As a budget-friendly beachfront property, we strive to provide a comfortable stay in an unbeatable location right on the sand. We appreciate your comments and are happy to share that the futon has since been replaced with a brand-new sofa and recliner for added comfort. We're also glad our Crew was able to respond promptly when concerns were brought to our attention. For future guests, vehicles are permitted on many Texas beaches, including this area, which is a local beach feature rather than something unique to the property. There are other spots on the beach in which vehicles are not allowed, and we are happy to assist guests looking for that. We appreciate your stay and wish you all the best in your future travels.

Beach access was great, perfect views. The couch bed was not comfortable, there's plenty of room in the bedroom to put bunk beds or another full/queen bed for better sleeping options. Also the kitchen supply was lacking, if i choose to stay here again we will bring an air mattress and cooking supplies.

Thank you Heather, it is quite the amazing beachside spot and appreciate you noting! We agree a futon couch is never as comfortable as a bed, and while available, we don't recommend it either for that purpose. We will certainly pass along your suggestion to this condo's owner. As far as kitchen supplies, we're not sure what exactly you were looking for and the kitchen is fairly small, but we've found most cooking needs are subjective. Certainly, if there were specifics, we'd be happy to pass them along to the owner as well. Thanks again for staying!

Thank you for allowing us to host your stay! We agree this is a fantastic location with amazing views, Nooshin. And yes, while not a brand new condo building, the rates to be direct ocean and beachside correlate. Not much we can do about the village of Surfside's water utilities, but we've been told they are actively working on addressing it. However, it is an island on island time. :)

We had a fabulous vacation. The location is excellent - just two flights of stairs and you are on the beach! The condo had the necessary equipment you need for your stay; I cooked several meals, the only issue being the oven took longer than expected to cook the meal. The water pressure in the shower was good, the towels soft & clean. The refrigerator kept the food/drinks cold. The AC kept the entire condo cool; in fact the kids felt it was too cold! This was our second time staying at this condo facility.The photo is our last morning sunrise at Surfside!

We’re so happy you had another fabulous vacation and enjoyed being just steps from the beach, Kathryn—it really does make things extra special. I’m glad to hear the condo had everything you needed, and we’ll definitely take a look at the oven to be sure it’s working just right. Your sunrise photo is gorgeous—what a perfect way to wrap up your trip! We’d love to have you and your group back again anytime.

I wanted to be right on the beach....and this was the place!! Get your beach attire on and your walking legs! I stayed on the third floor and got my exercise, but goodness what a view!!! Every morning and every night! The perfect "just me" getaway. Could comfy the place up a bit with better furniture, but bed was good. All in all gets an A!!!
