Recent Surf City guest reviews

We booked this property for a very last minute Spring Break getaway for a long weekend. We were a bit leery due to previous reviews but we have stayed at other properties in the same complex and knew if all else failed at least we had a fabulous location. But, we did not experience any of the negative things listed previously. The owners/management company seem to have listened and things were great! The kitchen was well stocked with what we needed, (we even peeled a new sticker off a pot) and everything was clean and comfortable. Of course you can't beat the location. Park and you can walk every where you need! Would recommend and hope to visit this property again soon!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this townhome! Our family loved it, and it was the ideal spot for a quick, relaxing getaway to the beach during the winter months. We got lucky with the weather, and our 4 year old daughter enjoyed her visit to the sea turtle rescue hospital nearby. We especially appreciated the close proximity to the beach, the well-stocked kitchen, and the cleanliness of the property. Lastly, my wife really appreciates that linens, towels are provided, and bathrooms are well stocked. We’ll certainly consider coming back again.
