Surf Side Sea Esta

The Sea Esta was a good fit for our party—ample room for our group of 12. The loft bedroom was a great getaway for the teenagers who needed a break from the rest of the family. Convenient to the beach. Walkable when the weather allowed. We would come to this house again.

Had a great time at your property celebrating a birthday with family and friends. The house was comfortable and nicely accommodated our party of all adults. The location was good, not far away from beach, convenience stores and few restaurants. We enjoyed the deck and even the firepit on a summer night. Few things to mention, all the bedrooms did not cool at night, dishwasher is not secure to wall, and we did see ants in the kitchen and bedrooms a few times. An outdoor shower after the beach would be a huge bonus!! But overall would recommend and book again. Thank you!!

We still enjoyed our stay.

Check in was super easy. Cleanliness was a little to be desired. I understand Surfside isn’t a huge tourist destination and that most come with fishing intentions, that it is a very weather beaten place. But things about the house could be kept up better considering it’s a vacation rental property. A warning should come with the surroundings areas water conditions, city water specifically. I know you as a rental company or the owner of the house can not do much about it besides a water filtration system but it definitely was surprising.

Nice beach house that sleeps 18

This is actually a great beach house and the location is great. Kitchen is well supplied with cookware/utensils. Kids really enjoyed the gameroom. Plenty of space for our group of 12. My only reason for less stars is, there were alot of small repairs needed. doorknob came off

Okay stay

Overall the stay was ok. We did not like the tub had a crack in & was leaking downstairs. Felt like someone was going to fall through. The neighbor in the green house kept coming out in a G string.. we did have kids so this was not ok. Downstairs room was a little hot but Overall the stay was good. I would rent it again.

Nice Beach House

This beach house is a nice place for 10 people, and sleeps everyone comfortably. The game room is fun for the kids, and we did spend some time in there with ours playing the games downstairs. Kitchen had everything needed to cook meals and more, which was very nice. Beach is just a short walk away, as well as a gas station and a small grocery store are very close by. They also have a charcoal grill there, which we used 2 nights for dinner. That was also nice, as some of the places we have stayed in the past did not have one. I think our only two complaints was the water smelled weird, which I can not blame the host for that, as that seems more of a city issue. And the LockBox for the key to the house would not open. BUT they were in constant communication with us on that, and we did get inside after 5-10 minutes of messaging back and forth, which we used that time to unload our things and take upstairs anyways. Overall, we had a great time staying at this location with our family, friends and 2 dogs, and would not have a problem to book here again.

Family beach getaway

Our son and 2 grandchildren (6 & 8) joined us at the Surfside Beach cottage for a 2 day beach visit. The kids LOVED the house, especially the “private” loft room, and both wished we could live there by the beach. The house is very nicely decorated, furnished and supplied—but casual enough that we weren’t worried about the kids damaging things. It was clean, instructions were clear, and communication prompt. Great getaway for our family!
