The pics are exactly as the house is! Very comfortable beds and nice furniture. The pool was great for days the wind was too strong on the beach. We had a great time and will definitely rebook.

Thank you so much, Michelle, for taking the time to write a review about your stay at Surf Riders. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed this Holmes Beach pool home that just went through a total renovation. We love how it's such an easy walk to the beach and that you have the separate upstairs unit for a large group (or the teenagers) to have privacy. Perfect time of year to enjoy being outside. We would love to welcome you again! Please let us know when you would like to come back to AMI as we offer a Return Guest discount? Thanks, Team Duncan, Duncan Real Estate
Surf Rider is located a short walk from beautiful beachfront. The house is well stocked with anything you'll need. Duncan Realty is great to work with and always available for any questions we had. Pool/Spa is a great addition to the beach. Can't wait to go back!

Great Location, Everything you need for a beach vacation
Overall its a wonderful house, Fully stocked kitchen with everything you need to cook at the house, including blenders, coffee makers, crock pot, air fryer. It would be nice to have a kitchen list ahead of time to plan meals best. The house is also well stocked with beach chairs, pool toys, and anything you would want to use at the beach. This also would have been helpful to know ahead of time when planning things to bring.
The owners are quick to respond with any needs, but I think some better instructions on how to use the pool lights and spa heater would have been helpful. According to the listing it says that the spa does not get above 86 degrees, but it does in fact get quite hot. This information would have also been helpful.
Overall all it is a wonderful house and just a short walk to the beach, We love that you do not have to cross any major roads to access the beach.
Knowing everything about the house now after staying there, we would definitely stay again.
