The Surfside is a very quaint establishment right on the water. It has a small restaurant/bar I did not have a chance to go into, there were complementary bicycles to use as well. The room was decorated simply and very clean!

On return, post concert, we had to wade through a flooded road due to significant rainfall. No issue of the hotel, but apparently a problem in that locale as there is a flood measuring post planted roadside, at the end of the seawall. Front desk girl was courteous and efficient. Bartenders were spot-on. All in all, a nice spot.

Beautiful location. The staff in the restaurant is absolutely great. We showed up late after a show when they were about to close but the gentleman working took our order, and delivered it to our room. Great food, great service. I wish the girl checking us in told us about coffee in the common room. Would have made the morning brighter! Lovely place.

It was adorable. Check in was seamless and we were able to upgrade for a nicer view. The little restaurant is cute and is also walkable to Riley's next door. Family friendly and perfect for a gals or adults weekend. Recommend!
