Negative
5 bedrooms and not 7. I’m not sure who did the counting there. Paid ridiculous amount for beach towels and mainstay bed sheets that weren’t on the bed ($400 linen fee). Refridgerator was all busted up inside and couldn’t support much more than a loaf of bread. Worst of all was that there was no hot water our entire trip. 14 guys that we’re looking forward to showering after a long day of fishing.

Quick getaway
My family and l stayed here for a of couple days. The check in process could've been more smooth. We didn't receive the check in code until after 4pm, which was check in time, and we only received it because l ended up reaching out to the owners once 4pm came and went. The property is nice and at a nice location. It's very convenient being able to just walk across straight to the beach. Only one room has a fan, and one room seems to not get any AC as that specific room stayed extremely hot throughout our stay. At one point we lost water. We're not sure what caused it but after an hour or so it came back, so wasn't too big of a deal. The house was clean besides one stained pillow case. There was a broken table on the balcony, and the place could use a new paint job. Overall this place was a good stay for my family and l for just a couple of days, but for the price l feel there should've been more.

2023 Family vacation
We have stayed at this house of Laylas last year. We always have a great time. We only had two problems with the house. There was only one refrigerator this time, and all the door shelves were missing from the one that worked. There was a note stating the broken was awaiting parts. This made it very difficult to store our perishables. We just did the best we could with ice chests. So bring extra ice chests! There were also some banister slats missing off the upper deck and several loose ones. I am letting Layla know so their is not a chance for someone to fall from the upper deck, especially a child we had my 2 yr old granddaughter with us and had to be on constant guard to make sure she or anyone else did not get to close to the deck railing. We placed the small patio tables in front of areas where slats were missing, but one of the tables had a broken tile on it so we just turned it towards the railing and set stuff over it so no one would get cut. Layla is a great hostess and very quick to respond.

Not exactly what we expected
We had a family gathering and enjoyed our trip, mainly because we refused to let the rental disappointments ruin our trip. The front balcony is what attracted our attention, but loose spindles on the railing made it impossible to be out there with our toddler. Just fyi, the fees doubled the cost of the rental, and we had to clean the unit ourselves before we left. The house is a little worn and could use updates. It was first advertised as a 7/3 when I booked it, and later changed to 5/3. There were still plenty of bunk beds to sleep everyone, so no big deal for us. The third bath is just a rinse off shower outside and we couldn’t open the door. The bedroom carpets need replacing or at least steam cleaned. The water is not drinkable as it tastes and smells like straight ocean water. Our biggest disappointment was that we were told that we could walk straight out front and be on the sand. In reality, we were at the sea wall and had no convenient way to get down as the walkover was unusable. I don’t know if the tide was up or if the water is always up to the sea wall, but we had to drive down to the drive-on beach a couple of miles down. Not a big deal, but we worked around it. We stayed 4 nights, but won’t rent that unit if we go back. I know that some of these issues were because of my own choices. And some, the owner can’t control. There was a no cancellation policy.

Family vacation at a great location. We had a great week. The only thing that would have been better if the one refrigerator would have been fixed while we were there, wouldn't get cold, so we had to grocery shop everyday.

Mission accomplished!
We go to Surfside every year as a family. We have been doing this for years. Our family has grown so much over the years so this year we had 25 on the trip! The house accommodated us with beds to spare. The house was great and Layla and her husband were very responsive to our every need. Would definitely stay here again!!! Thank you Layla and Hubby!

We had a great time with our prayer group. The place was cozy and conducive to our retreat. We made great memories at this beautiful home . The view from the beach was very relaxing and the even if the weather was chilly at that time, our kids had a great time playing in the sand. Special thanks to the owner/ manager for ensuring that our needs are addressed while ensuring our privacy. Thank you!

The property was nice and comfortable. The view was great. There was a very large deck to sit around and visit and plenty of sleeping space inside. There were stores conveniently close. It was my first time in that area and we enjoyed our stay.
