This boutique-style hotel was everything we needed and more. We were only passing through, so we only got to stay one night. The Surfside was so cozy and charming. You walk out and boom, you are on the beach. The walkable restaurant choices have great food. The room was spacious, the bed was huge (and so so cozy!). I loved everything about it. I wish I could have stayed longer!

I had originally booked a room with a beach view. However, when I checked in I found that the room had somehow been changed to a standard room without the beach view. Not sure how this happened but was very disappointed since the beach view was the primary reason for staying here. Otherwise, a very nice hotel with friendly staff.
