Newly renovated, very ciean and a super-short walk across the street to the beach. Very nice continental beeakfast and loved the beach chair/umbrella setup service! Room has the perfect kitchenette stocked with all the basics items you might need and there are even 2 large outdoor propane BBQs and picnic tables where you can dine alfresco! Pool was clean and private at the rear of property. Would definitely visit again!

We stayed at the Silver Surf for 4 nights in early September and I have to admit it was my favorite beach trip ever. You're right across the street from the private beach which wasn't crowded, not even on Labor Day weekend. It was so nice to be 100 yards from the room where all your things are at and even better is that the stay includes beach chairs and umbrellas set up for you on the beach. Our room was very clean and the staff was unbelievably good. Noah was especially good to us but all the staff was unbelievable. We left something in the room by accident and housekeeping found it and they called us before we were 15 minutes away, just great folks everywhere we looked. While there were plenty of restaurants in the area there are still some buildings that haven't recovered from last years Hurricane but they are working hard on it and be sure that the Silver Surf has fully recovered. We will be back next year.

I want to highlight the excellent services provided, especially by Noah, who was fantastic. However, I did have a less-than-ideal experience with the staff member managing the umbrellas. She seemed a bit aggressive regarding the tiki area and asked us about our room checkout in a manner that felt rude, almost as if she thought we were taking advantage of our stay. It would be helpful if the communication could be more friendly and understanding in the future.

The crew (Jen and Kristin were fab). Cons - Noisy / broken air con in the room which made it hard to sleep. - No crockery or cutlery in the kitchenette so completely unusable.

Love Silver Surf~AMI~ Just about everything you need for a fun stay. Very clean, modern, perfectly located, beach across the street with cabanas, chairs & umbrellas, option of beach massage, catamaran & jet ski rentals, outdoor pool is big and lots of loungers & tables plus a bathroom, grills, bicycles to rent, walk to restaurants, bay behind the hotel, room had good working A/C, king bed was comfortable, kitchenette has everything needed, large shower, lots of drawers & closet space. Plenty of parking spots for your car or golf cart. Staff were friendly & accommodating. Continental breakfast was average. Reasonably priced for April school vacation week- thank you! A few recommendations: 1. A shelving unit with a bench in the bathroom under the hooks for storage & a place to put your clothes would be helpful. 2. Murphy bed was very uncomfortable. Could use a replacement or mattress topper. 3. Half wall in shower allowed for the floor to get soaked. Maybe add a curtain to prevent this. Will stay here again and highly recommended this wonderful hotel.
