Short stay
Only big issue was there was no way to cool off the room which was almost 80 degrees in winter so we had to open the windows. Hotel was empty except for our group. Concierge was responsive before and after our stay.

The Surfside is a very quaint establishment right on the water. It has a small restaurant/bar I did not have a chance to go into, there were complementary bicycles to use as well. The room was decorated simply and very clean!

A Gem of a Hotel
I found this fantastic property on a recent business trip. I would rebook this property in a heartbeat and want to visit it during the Spring/Summer months. I loved everything about it - location, amenities, the Little Pub, all of it!

This was a great place to stay! We upgraded the room for a view and the beach was right outside our porch. Hearing the ocean and seeing the sunset was beautiful. The bed was also super comfy.

Surfside Stay
I love The Surfside! The room was spotless and adorably furnished; also loved Little Pub. Food and drinks were awesome and our bartender was a lot of fun!
What a lovely quick one night away. My husband and I just wanted a quick local overnight. We had dinner and drinks at Little Pub and then enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Very clean and comfortable.

Beautiful location. The staff in the restaurant is absolutely great. We showed up late after a show when they were about to close but the gentleman working took our order, and delivered it to our room. Great food, great service. I wish the girl checking us in told us about coffee in the common room. Would have made the morning brighter! Lovely place.

Cool place on the beach! Loved the decor and or room. Beds were comfortable and the coffee bar was awesome complete it’s own beach balcony. We were only there for one night so can’t say about the restaurant, but it looked like a nice place to eat.

Great resort and beautiful beach.
Such a beautiful little resort. Recently renovated, clean, and comfy. Just bring your swim shoes because the beach is rocky and cuts bare feet. But it is absolutely beautiful!!!

Surprise beachside getaway
We planned a trip to visit college friends and did not want to stay in the run of the mill corporate hotel. Surfside was the perfect spot! From the beach side setting, unique design of the rooms, the awesome food and drinks at Little Pub and the complimentary bikes, we had a great visit.
