First time in Surfside and absolutley loved the area the house was in. Close to the beach so it didn't seem like a hassle to take all the beach stuff there. Plenty of beach chairs, plenty of beach towels, a beach cart, corn hole, and mini ping ping table. Pool was very clean and new looking - wish it was a bit bigger, but it the same size as other pools all over Surfside. Grill and outdoor area were great. Kitchen was pretty well stocked. House was very clean and host was extremely responsive and provided and extensive list of details about the area. Though VERY clean, the house needs some updating in decor and comfort - mattresses and pillows need to be replaced as does the cookware. Would stay here again if we decided to come back to Surfside, but would bring more cookware and our own pillows. Overall, we were pleased with our experience.
