My husband and I totally enjoyed our stay. The room was perfect. It was a short walk to the beach. The pool was quiet. No drama since it was a small place. We Loved it. We will always stay at Surf Suites every time we go to Wrightsville Beach. Thank you to the employees.

Overall, Surf Suites gets a 5/5. Really, it’s one of the quietest and most relaxing places I have slept. What I liked: Comfortable bed, Oceanfront room (the living room overlooks the water), the balcony/porch, updated kitchen and living area and plenty of closet space. Free parking for the room (this is HUGE). What I didn’t love: Bathroom needs updating, could’ve been a little cleaner. They put me in a ground corner room initially and I had to ask to be moved. They did give me a little pushback, saying I should’ve called for a better room. Things to know: 1. You get one parking spot. They will accommodate a visitor if there is room. Street parking is available but it fills up QUICK. 2. There is coffee in the lobby. Thank you. 3. Sunday’s, across the street, has good coffee, baked goods, a really nice staff and good beers. They have sandwiches that you can microwave on site (skippable… just don’t). TLDR: This is pretty much the perfect beach motel. I wanted to stay longer and I would definitely return.
I found McDonalds before I found Sunday’s. I’m lovin’ Sundays.

The property and our room had everything we expected. We even had a maintenance need with something we brought for the beach and the staff was able to help us with a solution for that! We will definitely return.

Disliked: Amenities
At over $300 a night you'd expect yhat the kitchen woukd be stocked with a simple thing like a cookie sheet or baking dishes. At $300 a night maybe toilt paper that is one step away from sand paper. At over $300 a night how about towels or a bathroom at the pool? Maybe some drinking water out there? For $300 a night how about a welcome bottle of water or forget that, how about just smile? Except for one of the cleaning crew (Kim), the staff has all the charm of Soviet prison guards.

We would stay here again. King bed was comfortable and pull out sofa was enough for our daughter . Quiet- easy to park and access rooms as the property is not Huge. Helpful housekeeping gave new towels etc Kitchen did not have many pots - was ok as we were not planning to cook - would have been somewhat difficult. Al in all - great stay !
