Noted as “dog friendly” when I booked and paid through Expedia- then they tried to charge me a non refundable “pet fee” upon arrival. We declined the charge, lost our booking with ZERO refund 😤

Kayla was my first point of contact when we checked in. She was super friendly, kind and answered all the questions I had at check in. The rooms were clean and spacious and every staff member I encountered was nice and helpful. We stayed for 3 nights and the breakfast in the morning was very good. Especially the coffee! We had an absolutely wonderful trip. I can't recommend this hotel enough.

I really had no problem with the hotel itself.. The staff was very nice. What I didn’t like at all was being charged $12 per night for the 4 night stay. I told the lady that checked me in that it was supposed to be $12 per stay. I pulled it up on the hotels.com website to show her. She told me to check with the supervisor the next day which I did. She did refund $36. If you book on Choice hotels which is the website for Surf and Sand it does say $12 per night. I really do not understand that or why there is even a parking fee there at all.

Ok Stay Near the Beach

It’s a beach hotel, not far from the beach. Nice skatepark close by for the kids. Not as clean of a hotel as we’d hoped. Sofa had hair and stains. Shower wasn’t the cleanest nor were the beds. Beds were not that comfortable but nice enough place for one night.
