Perfect for a small group gathering

We just had a winter youth church retreat. Kids loved the place with a themed livingroom and the location. Almost everything was provided, kitchen wares, blankets, towels, etc. It was a great stay. If there is a one thing needed to be added was an extra bathroom with shower.

Awesome vacation home!

We had a Prom party at this property. It was very clean and was situated perfectly for a large group of young kids and their chaperones. The owner was super to work with and was very timely on all communication. Thank you for allowing us to use your home and know it made so many great memories for our kids! I would recommend this property to anyone!

Very nice beach house

Kids loved the boat bunk bed inside. Loved the wrap around balcony and all those beds! Everyone had a good night sleep. Great location also if you like to surf. Our group had a really good time in this house this weekend, there was a big vacant lot beside the house and the owner let us do smores with our portable fire pit. I would recommend buying one of those backyard bug sprays prior to staying outside for a long time though so you can enjoy the outdoors more.

Disappointing

Falsely advertised, there is only two bathrooms. Half of the beds had sheets with dirt in them and it was very dirty overall. Would not recommend.

Fun house!

Great house for the price! We had a family of 9 from adults to an infant - my grandchildren loved the house and the pirate ship bed was their favorite! Plenty of room and the house stayed nice and cool, we did use the fans they provided at night in the bedrooms with the doors open which kept us comfortable, otherwise it was a little warm with the doors closed- so I highly suggest using them! Overall the house is nice there are several cosmetic flaws that need attention but these did not effect our stay. There is a beach view but not a sand beach area directly in front of the home, but it is a short 2-3 minute walk to a nice quiet pedestrian beach that was awesome! The owners are great and we would gladly stay again!!

Very nice place. It is well maintained.

This place is very well kept. The property owner is a very pleasant person to talk to. On the day that we got there, my youngest son had to use the bathroom really bad. We got there almost an hour before our check in time and Mr Zuhair did not even think twice to let us in. On our last day, we did not realize it was DST and we lost an hour. I asked him again if we can leave at noon instead of the 11 AM (check out time), and he said no problem. The place itself is very close to the beach. When you are out on the porch, you can hear the sound of the waves. It's just so happen that the weather is not as warm enough as we would hope it would be. But we will definitely come back to this place and will most likely to go to any of Mr Zuhair's property. This property is highly recommended. I will surely tell my friends about this place.

Not a healthy place to stay.

I was very disappointed about the bedroom sheets and spreadsheet, it smelled like it was not clean or wash before we came. The bath towels are old and smelled like odors. The tub was clotting up not able to use it at all. The closets on both rooms is broken and dirty pillow case and sheet was throwing in there. Over all, the house it ok not what I was expected. It need to be clean really bad in one of the bathroom, it smelled like urine. I was kind of disappointed.

First Family Vacation

The vacation home was amazing! My whole family loved how big and comfy the home was and how close it was to the ocean. The pirate ship bed was a really great place for the kiddos to play, especially with my 2 year old. All the kids had a blast playing hide and go seek in the house. It had plenty of bath towels for everyone to use. Notice most of the plates of the light fixtures were broken or sticking out which was unsafe for the kids. At least one or two of the beds did not have any linens and bedsheets on. Only thing was when we tried to wash our clothes, the washer had went out on us which the water did not drain. We contacted the owner, but they were not much help prior to us notifying them it would not drain. The owner told us they were not a maintainence person and to wait 10-15 minutes before starting again, and then hanged up on us right after that. Not much of a very good customer service. Overall, we enjoyed our stay at the vacation home.

Stay at Surfside Beach

Beach house is absolutely wonderful for large group. Kitchen very big & accommodating. Sleeping facilities are great. Deck around house is outstanding. Everything great...except for refrigerator. It did not cool...fish & chicken in freezer thawed out so had to cook up immediately. Owner was nice...but did not solve problem. Fridge did not get fixed...very disappointed with the way he handled it. Aside from fridge debacle, we loved the beach house & had a wonderful vacation.
