Wedding Weekend

★★★★☆ 4 of 5
Overall Comment
Stayed in room 708 for my nieces destination wedding. I had the benefit of seeing several inside cabins and with the exception of 724 (which is REALLY nice) 708 was the best I saw. The carpet, which is in good shape add a definite level of comfort. The other all-tile rooms I saw were all very outdated and sterile. I told my sister her room felt like a room that conjucal visits happen (not that I would know).
I read several reviews on the condo and many stated dissatisfaction with the beds. The owner responded acknowledgment for the bed issue so I hoped that issue would have been remedied prior to my state. It was not. The bed is hard (even with the addition of foam toppers) and squeaks very loudly anytime you move in bed. The sun shines in VERY brightly into the master bedroom at sunrise. After that morning I layed the extra blanket over the window to block the morning sun. I noticed from the outside that 90% of the condos have plantation shutters on that window, although there are shutters in the living room, only flimsy curtains in the master bedroom. Each TV had several remotes which were hard to figure out as each TV was different. There are are no restaurants within walking distance. The beach was nice and fun to walk down to in the AM. Beach service includes chairs and umbrellas. Hot tip- check-in desk sells ice bags for $3.
I would stay in this or room 724 again but not the others I saw.

Very family oriented atmosphere safe and secure great unit with bad mattresses. The king bed in 708 is extremely noisy if you roll over the whole unit knows. With a business like this you’d think they’d replace mattresses every 5 years or so the mattresses we had were over 10 years old with broken down foam toppers

Dated Unit, needs attention
by Mandeville LA
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
Overall Comment
We were disappointed to see how much attention this unit needs. The paint is scuffed and chipped from walls and cabinets, the kitchen cabinets were sticky to the touch where you grab them to open them, many of the outlets don’t work and/or have gotten so loose that they don’t hold a plug in, and the lighting is extremely dim everywhere but the kitchen. There is a door from the main bedroom to the balcony that won’t open.
We also wish these units had their own washer and dryer.

The Condo was beautifully decorated, comfortable and very clean. A little wear on some of the cabinets but still nice to stay in. View was amazing. No way to be lug the tub to bath so we had to shower. A few burnt lights bulbs and non working electrical sockets but all in all would highly recommend.

Unit 708
by Galena IL
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
Overall our vacation was really great. Hokiday Surf and Racquet Club was in a perfect location and a great setting. It sits right on the beach and was quiet. The amenities were perfect. Unit 708 is nice but the kitchen is borderline gross. It needs a major upgrade. Cabinete are broke and sticky. The stove is old and chipped with avent hood that needs a serious cleaning. Pans are really old. The bathrooms could use exhaust fans. Bedrooms are really nice. The view from the units is spectacular.

Such a great location and the rental was just perfect for our family. There were a few minor things, such as a broken barstool, and the shower faucets that need fixed, but overall, a great condo. I read previously that the king size bed was in need of replacing, and that’s true! My husband had to sleep sideways!

This rental was clean, updated, and well appointed. The only complaint was the shower in guest room had poor water pressure. Otherwise the view, the chair service and the always helpful staff were standouts. Updated furniture was awesome. So we’re the fans in bedrooms tho air worked great.

Snow Bird Stay

★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
We love Holiday Surf overall. This trip was disappointing. So much disruption due to maintenance and upgrades. Very noisy and A/C and water disruptions. Hope this time was the exception and all the major upgrades are done. The staff at HSRC is great. Always cheerful and helpful. The 708 unit we had was not nearly as nice as other units. It was clean, but very tired and out of date. The couch is extremely uncomfortable and saggy. Mattress should be replaced. Kitchen cabinets need to be replaced, they are original and feel sticky.

Our stay was perfect!! The staff was always helpful and friendly!! The condo was comfortable- we enjoyed the unlimited DVD rentals at night!! The owners even cooked hotdogs for us on the 4th- what a great touch!! We had friends staying 2 hotels away and it was so. Riders down there that you couldn't even feel a breeze!! Our spot was perfection!!! Only wish there was a washer/dryer inside unit...
