I loved that when I checked in, it was literally the simplest process ever. Within 45 seconds of approaching the fresh, I had my key and my agreement signed. Very friendly front desk and extremely clean room. The free paddle rental is AWESOME!!!

Lobby area was adorable and staff was very nice. Elizabet, who works the breakfast, is amazing. She really helped make our stay special. The room needs a little love with cleaning. I think some deep cleaning would be a good idea.

This was my second stay at Surf and Sand. Loved it enough to come back, and will come again. Pros: free hot breakfast, attentive staff, cold a/c, hot water and great pressure in the shower, and we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. Cons: our fridge leaked the whole time so we had to keep a towel on the floor, the beds were not very comfortable (had to really work hard to find the right spot), our toilet flushed REALLY slowly and eventually stopped up, and we were out of some toiletries in the shower. All minor things. Overall was a great stay, I'm sure we'll be back for a third time and more!

“I had an excellent stay at this hotel! I especially loved the small beach at the back—it was a fantastic spot to relax. The lady assisting with breakfast was wonderful, very kind and helpful. The rooms were comfortable, and the pool was great. Although the elevator was a bit noisy, it didn’t detract from the overall experience. Unfortunately, it was too windy during our stay, so we couldn’t use the kayaks and paddleboards, but I’m hopeful for next time!”

Great value for the price. Included a good breakfast. Shower head did not work very well during this stay but the water is always hot right away. No waiting around. I let the front desk know about the shower head issue at checkout. Close to the beach.
